I think non-software people call this getting their face eaten by leopards.
Our “left”-centre government party here in Germany is still trying to pass the next version of a surveillance bill, which has been struck down multiple times for being unconstitutional over the years. All the while, it is getting more and more likely that we will have our own neo-nazis in power next year.
If you walked through shit and dirt in your socks, sure.
But other than that? Do you really believe there is such a big difference between putting your feet wrapped in cloth on a seat and your ass wrapped in cloth? Do you think someone first puked on their feet, then put them on the seat and that’s how it got there? Do you really think the cushion is deep cleaned all day every day after the shift? Man, I got bad news for you.
It’s interesting to me that so many people assume by default that others have smelly feet. I guess we have all met the stereotypical sweaty guy at the local nerd convention. But in general, if your body produces a notable bad smell when you are not exercising and despite basic hygiene, there is probably something wrong.
And neither can it be improved by kneecaps being overly twisted and pressed against the front seat all the time. Shifting position to avoid one-sided stress on the joints is the key.
Mein Führer …
… the Zugführer has not kicked the dude off the train.
Also, I hope you keep your well aged salami and cheese sandwich in your Tupperware. And don’t you dare sit next to me with your cloth smelling like an ashtray because you “had to” smoke one more before the train arrives.
Yeah, I should probably just cut my legs by like 20 centimetres, so I fit the body model the designers used. Shave off some width on the shoulders too, so I can have more arm space as well.
TBF, I keep the socks on, but other than that: If no one else needs the space or sits next to me? Why not?
I’m a big guy, so anytime I use public transport either my back hurts because the top edge of the back rest pushes into my lower back, my knees hurt because the space between seat rows are too small or both at the same time. So let me at least stretch my legs when it doesn’t inconvenience anyone. Shoes off, socks on.
To anyone saying “Booooh! Unhygienic!”: I dare you to tap hard on the cushions a couple of times. For even more shock effect, do it when you are the first passenger of the day.
More like “I do two jobs but only get paid for one”.
No, you are not. People regularly equate Git and GitHub, though.
Sounds good to me.
Had another job where my task was to maintain Perl scripts from the 90s. The company was crap, though, so I only stayed for half a year.
Bold of you to assume I don’t hate PHP already.

Thanks for your input, but it is not a question about who benefits or what a person aught to do, but a simple logical conclusion:
For simplicities’ sake, let’s say there are 10 people voting in an election with 2 parties. Each party has 4 unwavering loyalists and the remaining 2 people’s votes depend on current events/issues. The two parties mainly take turns in government due to these swing voters.
Now enter a third party. Party 3 addresses issues that are somewhat relevant to voters of party 2 and mostly uninteresting to voters of party 1. In the next election, some voters will most likely drift from party 2 to party 3:
Splitting votes between too somewhat similar parties guarantees a win for the opposite party on the spectrum. Coalitions are not possible under first past the post, so party 2 and 3 teaming up to dethrone party 1 is not an option. This continues until either another party on the opposite end of the spectrum joins the race and diminishes the votes for party 1 or one of party 2 or 3 absorbs the other.
Therefore, it is in the voter’s best interest to vote strategically against what they don’t want and not for what they do want.
How to apply a simple pressure dressing is part of the basic medical training course, which is mandatory to get a driving licence in Germany.
Anything that such a dressing can’t stop does require professional help and will kill you, crisis or not.
The issue in the US is that it IS against your political interests to vote for anyone but the least bad option.
The first past the post system simply doesn’t allow for a diverse political landscape.
OK, let’s trade then. Mine are often cold despite the blanket/bed sheet.
Who puts a blanket on their legs but not their feet? Also, wearing slippers on the couch? If your feet are cold, put them under your blanket and get those dirty soles off the furniture!
Kids these days …
During university I gave additional lessons for lower semesters and at times had to juggle three languages: Java, Typescript and plain JavaScript for that one professor who thought TS sucks.
Coding on the spot got really messy at times.
Over here in Germany using a shopping cart “costs” between 50 Cents and 2 €. You have to put a coin in them to release the chain by which they are attached to eachother. Of course when you return the cart and close the lock you get your coin back.
Little metal plates without monetary value but still the right size are common marketing gifts by companies and organizations yet they still provide mostly the same unconscious effect of “I want my coin back”.
Of course there are also people who use little gadgets to unlock the carts without putting anything in but I wouldnt know about such things…
