It’s been quite a while since I last posted here, but I just created a new video that I think WordPress users will find pretty informative. So, I wanted to share it here on Tumblr as well.
In the video, I discuss the potential pitfalls of using tools like SlickStack and walk you through how to investigate a project to help avoid common issues. I hope you find it helpful!
Does anyone still use Tumblr? 🙏😅😬
This is an honest question.
Interact if you are alive, and well.
Hey guys, it has been a longgg time.
Just thought I would share this issue I found back in 2016 with JP Morgan Chases Ultimate Rewards system.
Please up it on reddit if you found it interesting, or share on twitter.
Is it true? Verizon will be killing Tumblr??

Check it out, if you like seeing your photos explode into a million particles.
I recently added a EDIT feature.
Let me just say this.
Formal education is not really a prerequisite for most of the available roles in the software world. I only attended college for a couple of months, and decided a CS degree wasn't right for me. Granted at the time their web courses were at least 2-4 years behind in terms of real world usage (unless you wanted to work for some massive corporate software machine, this was 10 years ago).
I think the route I took is still an effective route
1) pick something that interests you
2) come up with some sort of project, or idea you want to make, or contribute to open source
3) start coding, you will learn on your way
4) repeat a bunch of times
After you feel comfortable enough apply for a jr position at a company, and use your projects as your resume. The current amount, and quality of freely avaible information is a MIND FUCK. When I first got into this I was lucky if I saw a forum post explaining how to do something the wrong way...
Its an ever-changing field, which is why being able to learn on your own is much more powerful than taking a course in whatever...
At the moment “real world experience” is valued much more than degrees, and the barrier of acquiring such experience is pretty low.
Best of luck!

That felt good, oh soo good to watch
Also it would seem as if shes trying to communicate with her viewers as if there was no such thing as a mic.Former Mexican President
wait for her reaction when he drops the bomb
Dear god, that woman’s voice. You could cut steel with her voice. Her voice is triggering primal “fight or flight” responses in most mammals. It’s a voice that says “I’m an evil hateful smug sack of shit.”
Also, good on you, President of Mexico.
He seems pretty awesome, too bad the US just has a bunch of jokers running for president.Former Mexican President
wait for her reaction when he drops the bomb
This man rolled into my restaurant last year 16 people deep. He’s the nicest, fiercest, and tallest motherfucker I’ve ever met.
wait for her reaction when he drops the bomb

Look what i got :D
As a male every one of her videos is a emotional rollarcoaster for me.I love her, she does the weirdest shit.
She definitely does
Prominent (or simply facebook-prolific) member of new friend group posts these periodically. She often does this with raw meat and eggs, which immediately triggers my germaphobia.
Like, why doesn’t she have salmonella or any number of foodborne illnesses yet? It’s all I can think about when she does this.
Bangkok, it's Bangkok
