Not all disabilities are visible.

Me, about once a month. “It’s only 3 things, not worth writing down, I’ve got this”

Narrator: he didn’t got this.

This is reminding me - I need to pay the bill from my psychiatrist. But they’re closed right now… Can someone repost this tomorrow during business hours, maybe I’ll see it then?

I’ll take the mail. 50/50 shot I can address it now and toss it. All others are impossible.

Technical debt aside of course the development process looks like that - what’s the alternative? Infinite feature growth? No one benefits from that.

As an example, I’ve got signal on my phone- it started with texting features, added images, calls, video calling, but at some point there’s a limit on the number of useful ways to communicate.

I don’t need it to be another social network.

I don’t need it to tell me my horoscope, order a pizza, or organize my photos.

I don’t need it to track my health, play games, read my work emails, or drive my car.

It doesn’t need to integrate with VR, or AI, or whatever 2-letter buzz acronym comes up next week.

It’s a secure messaging platform, I need it to send messages. Sure, there’s always a cat and mouse game of encryption to keep ahead of, but infinite feature growth? It’s not practical or necessary. Things can exist to do one thing reliably and well.

In terms of utility for the average person, statistics >>>>> calculus.

I work in an engineering field, and can count on one hand the number of times I’ve had to do an integral in the last year. But I run into glorified statistics problems virtually every day both in personal and professional situations.

Having to constantly remind people of error bars, statistical significance, and the difference between correlation and causation, it would have been nice if those things were hammered home more thoroughly in school.

There’s no scenario where I would bring this to a manager. If you aren’t capable of (politely!) setting your own boundaries with your coworkers, you’re going to struggle no matter what team you land on.

I suspect, given this is a medical setting, the hiring manager has more important things to worry about than “are people talking near the new person again?”

If you came to me with that demand before hiring I would thank you for your time and wish you luck finding a position that meets your needs. I have my own shit to deal with, training new team members is already an additional load to take on, and having to manage personalities full-time is not in my bandwidth

No issue with embossed logos. Stainless steel is not guaranteed to work though - plain stainless steel is not magnetic (thus doesn’t work), but most manufacturers sandwich other metals between layers of stainless to make them induction compatible

Carbon steel and cast iron are absolutely perfect though

Would be happy to chat if you’re still on the fence but quite frankly induction is better in every way - less energy, faster heatup, more even heating and control, cooler kitchen… the only slight downside is there’s a small subset of pans that dont work

My range hood is magnetic and has about 4 of these stuck on the side

They’re not perfect, because I do sometimes space out through their beeping, but they help keep me on task when I remember to set them

Additionally, as someone else mentioned, my induction stove will shut off if it gets too hot.

If you still struggle, maybe an air fryer is right for you, they typically have timed modes.

Someone else mentioned the dorm room system you have to keep pressing a button to trigger - you could pretty easily recreate this with a countertop induction cooktop, pressure cooker, or air fryer. Just plug into a smart switch, and use Home Assistant + a button, and have it auto shutoff after X time since last button press.
