mushroommunk@lemmy.todayto Technology@lemmy.ml•A ‘demoralizing' trend has computer science grads out of work — even minimum wage jobs. Are 6-figure tech careers over?16·3 days agoWhat you’re describing is a different problem that does exist but isn’t what’s going on here in the US. The layoffs have been so broad and across so many different industries with almost no rhyme or reason.
Several of my friends who have been in the industry for years, and quite good at what they do, have been laid off. Many of the companies fired people simply based on who was hired last (even if they’d been there 3 years and a high contributor). Others fired just based on which team made the least money back (without regard for if they were a support team or some other important group like an infrastructure team not directly developing a product but developing for all the other teams). The steel processing company one of my friends worked for developing their inventory system and such, they told each manager to lay off 20% of their team and didn’t give any more guidance.
The article focuses on the big companies like Google and Microsoft but country wide from the companies with only a few people on up have been laying off developers. This was a safe choice field a few years ago but more is flooded with competing applicants for job listings.

mushroommunk@lemmy.todayto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My credit union no longer allows me to payoff pending purchases made on my credit cardEnglish2·6 days agoGetting a new credit card can heavily impact your credit score and impact financial decisions for years. It isn’t something that should be done if you can help it.
mushroommunk@lemmy.todayto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My credit union no longer allows me to payoff pending purchases made on my credit cardEnglish6·6 days agoMany don’t have a choice, especially in the US. Without playing the credit game you end up paying significantly more in loan interest for things like a house or car or can’t even get a loan. One of the easiest ways to keep a good credit score is to have a credit card you’ve had forever and that you consistently use and pay off.
It’s a goodbye screwed up system
mushroommunk@lemmy.todayto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My credit union no longer allows me to payoff pending purchases made on my credit cardEnglish23·6 days agoA lot of people either forget or don’t carefully track the money as spent when it’s still in their back account so they spend it again. It’s just generally a hassle and more work vs just having a habit of paying off as you go and being able to see exactly what’s still in your bank account.

With new water heaters yes, do your maintenance. Old water heater that came with the place and hasn’t been touched in years? Yeah, the advice is to actually not flush it because you don’t know what cracks that gunk might be blocking up and it will be more likely to fail on you sooner.
