I'm interested in (among many, many other things):
TTRPGs, board games, longboarding, SUP / paddleboarding, and mechanical keyboards.
Yes, I realize that's a lot of "boards" in that list. :)

IBM sure does suck donkey balls but I really don't think that particular thing is their fault.
- Comment on What benefits do you get for being on-call? - programming.dev 1 year ago:
We don't have our devs on call at all. Infra / platform ops are and I think they get 750€ per on-call week (not more than one week out of four) which includes two calls or two hours of call duration whichever is reached first.
After that it's another 70€ per call or started hour and it's the same if an expert who is not on call is asked to help out with an issue reported to on-call (but they may not answer / decline as there's never an expectation to be "soft on-call")
Overall that's an okay deal and some sorely needed extra money for the ops guys and gals. But all the same I'm happy that my devs don't need to plan their lives around an on-call schedule.

I really tried hard to persevere - but I'm weak and it was too much.

It's very funny for sure and I was just about to share it with the other SWEs in our off-topic chat. But I just can't listen to it, had to close the tab after like 50 seconds. Perhaps on mute and with CC?

He can change the name to Twitler. Not a big change but much more fitting.@Technological_Burger
