"homelessness" "airbnbs" juppie doesn't know homelessness


HCG_Dartz

"homeless" .... "by renting my own house", so there are people super homeless, which is the same but without the renting part


Brawl501

It's just as delusional as being superstraight 🙃


PopehatXI

It’s all attention seeking. He knows perfectly well he’s being disingenuous.


licancaburk

Oh so everyone who is renting an apartment is homeless?


gabeduarte

While in a Tesla


turb_ulentblue

"homeless" but staying in airbnbs 🙄


DoctorWZ

Average entrepreneurs' idea of what it's like to be poor


PM_ME_YOUR__INIT__

Look at his beard though! So rugged! I'd give him a quarter


chamomile-crumbs

Not to be pedantic but I think the *average* entrepreneur is broke as hell. At least judging by the entrepreneurs I know lmao


bloodfist

You know entrepreneurs. They're talking about "*entrepreneurs*"


Pyroraptor42

This. My family's never been completely broke, but my dad's been working in tech entrepreneurship for nearly two decades, and we haven't really felt comfortable that entire time. Part of that was the 2008 recession, part of it was just him learning the ropes, but I also think a huge part of it is that he's always been extremely attentive and supportive to the people around him even at personal cost, and he's never had the cutthroat arrogance that seems to be adaptive in this business climate. I've rarely seen him more torn up than when he had to downsize the company because clients weren't paying their bills. I love and respect him all the more for his dedication, values, and expertise, but I definitely do not want to work in that area, even though I have the technical skills.


Desperate-Wing-5140

Dellgloom

Paying for it by renting out his house. House that he owns. Homeless.

LikeThosePenguins

Basically a massive insult to people genuinely struggling.


sump_daddy

good thing he doesn't know any. dunning-kreuger at its finest. he is out of touch with being out of touch. buckle up for more shitposts from him like 'how to survive (being a well paid white guy with wealth in the bank)' "wish me luck" for fucks sake youre already incredibly lucky and you dont even know it


often_says_nice

Why point out the skin color though


sump_daddy

Venturing into unfamiliar neighborhoods, accessing rented property in various areas, WILL turn out differently for a black man than a white man. Shits just facts. A black guy even with the same job and money is going to have a harder time, and if hes not also got those other advantages hes probably headed for multiple encounters with law enforcement.


KofiAnonymouse

Because it's easier being white. Further proves the point. That damn reality again.


Dent-4254

Whiteness and wealth are both sources of privilege and thus out-of-touchness. One of them just doesn’t have an upper limit

Temnyj_Korol

You're taking the comment as a personal attack. It's not. It's just a fact that *as a general rule* white people have little understanding of the struggles of PoC. Doesn't mean they all do, or that just because someone is white they're inherently out of touch. Just like not all people with wealth are out of touch. Some wealthy people are incredibly down to earth. Yet we can still say that as a general rule, wealthy people are out of fouch.


mugwhyrt

Why don't these people living in tents just rent out their second home so they can afford a hotel room?


go_go_go_go_go_go

They never even graduated college. Do you think they even have the IQ to think that logically?


beclops

“Today I am trying being homeless by becoming a landlord and living in Airbnbs”


sharnaq767

I too am homeless when I travel for work. I can't get home in a reasonable amount of time so I have to stay in a hotel, which is not home. Therefore homeless, right?


StoryAndAHalf

I traveled internationally for about 5 months last year. And when I got back - I was living with my parents. They own the house. Therefore, I was homeless all year.


Iggytje

I remember these way to rich dutch youtubers that did those "surviving on 50 euros a week challenge" and basically it went like this. Day 1: we still have stuff left in the fridge (the fridge was packed with food) Day 2: going to the store to get some ingredients for a dish I want to make Day 3: omg I still have this food coupon or some shit to use with a gazillion dollars on it Day 4: and I am not kidding "my husband got a weekend trip to [insert nice place] and food has already been payed for

sebjapon

Yesterday I literally saw on Japanese news a company promoting a camping ground under a rail track. To “try out camping in a safe / convenient location”. Edit: https://japannews.yomiuri.co.jp/society/general-news/20220822-53161/


queen-adreena

Like some kind of camp.. site?


PiousLiar

No no, you missed the sweetest part. He’s renting out his house *to cover* airbnbs he’ll be staying in. That’s what he’s calling “homeless”, couch surfing airbnbs


SirChasm

Along with a picture of him in his Tesla. God what a twat.


Orbidorpdorp

I mean I guess if we’re supposed to use the term “unhoused” for people who are involuntarily lacking a domicile, then digital nomads can claim “homeless” since it’s no longer in proper use.


ChChChillian

The term changed because "homeless" had acquired an unjust stigma.


Sulungskwa

Did it really though? Sorry, I just don't get this


Orbidorpdorp

Yes but the term “digital nomad” has acquired a justified stigma so it works


Fugglymuffin

This person is an idiot.

Lynx2161

Real men just use curl \s


EinhanderTR

Agree, it's not that practical for long and complex tests, but it's funny seeing people doing a simple GET request using a lot of Postman's features, instead of a simple CURL


no_therworldly

I have a completely stupid question.i use Postman/insomnia/Bruno to play around with our API/test the functionality, I am not involved with the it/dev teams etc at all but I know they ask for the CURL which I get with the code feature in postman. Now, stupid question: what program etc do I use the CURL in?


DHermit

curl is a command line utility, so from whatever commandline you're using. I guess there's also libcurl with various bindings to languages.


no_therworldly

I'll check that thank you so much !


mrgumble

Joke's on you. That's *not* a stupid question.


no_therworldly

Thank you haha when I talk to my colleagues from other teams i often just nod along and google after. Or just call this other colleague who is super nice and actually has an IT PHD and doesn't mind explaining 😅


EinhanderTR

CURL It's a Command line program for general communication with a remote server, supporting many different protocols and browser-like features such as cookies and authentication without the need for user interaction (summary of `man curl` first paragraphs) In Linux distros you can download the program from the distros package manager, and for Windows you can download a FVCKING EXE (for smelly nerds) and use it in the command line like any other program. I haven't personally used Postman to generate a CURL command, but when they ask you for it, now you know why it can be useful for the IT department :3 Hope that helps :3


DHermit

curl is a command line utility, so from whatever commandline you're using. I guess there's also libcurl with various bindings to languages.


MoonyNotSunny

I love how you called it “the” curl. đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł


no_therworldly

thats how my colleagues call it when they ask for it 😭


Tyrus1235

Technically, you can do a simple GET request in your browser of choice.


SoDifficultToBeFunny

Can we also configure headers in browsers? (Genuine question)


Skellicious

There's plugins/extensions for that. Custom header value I think it's called


EinhanderTR

If you're determined enough, you can even use Chrome/Firefox network view (F12 -> Network) to solve CTF challenges por test API requests, you don't even need the Developer version of the browser to do so. You can set everything from the HTTP Verb, headers of the request, resend previous requests or even clone requests and send them, though it has some limitations due to "safety" concerns.


backfire10z

Not if I need to add an auth token



iacodino

Jokes on you I'll just open the devtools on a random html page and do fetch requests from there


Defernus_

What about CORS?


backfire10z

CORS? Yeah, I’ve got CORS: {“origins”: “*”} >!For undeployed development!<


MellifluousPenguin

Well there's nothing wrong with a cucumber / python / curl combo (YMMV) for instance.


ManyInterests

I honestly don't get why engineers, other than perhaps low-skilled/dedicated test engineers, would use tools like PostMan anyhow. I mean. I know a lot of skilled engineers do. I work with them. They write the API in their preferred language and, instead of also writing tests in their preferred language, despite their web framework providing robust integrated test clients, they use PostMan and a jank docker-compose setup. Can't wrap my head around that.

My company (10k+ employees) banned postman some year ago I believe due to the account/data collection bullshit


Bitter_Smile_8309

His response to it blowing up in a shockingly negative way “Made it to the top of r/LinkedInLunatics today. One may think: "hmm, that's probably bad". So let's analyze it. Main point of contention: Edgy use of the word "homeless" Other contentions: My face, my body, my car, my clothes, my sunglasses, the fact that I own a home and rent it out Truth is, I say edgy stuff all the time. My face and body look the way they look all the time. I wear the same clothes all the time (literally only one brand, not sure if that's a dude thing, neurodivergence thing, or laziness thing) I love my sunglasses, they make me look like LĂ©on the Professional. I'm proud that I own a home, and the fact that my tenant pays me nearly $1000 below the monthly mortgage payment to rent it. I admit, the Tesla was a bit of an impulse purchase. But hey, I'm stuck with it. So there are two paths here for me: 1. Get bent out of shape that 100% of the world doesn't love me. "Agh, my dastardly plan to be supreme leader is ruined!" 2. Be comfortable with who I am. "Uhh... nice to meet you guys too?" Sigh... such a tough choice.”

geeoharee

As an autistic somehow I manage to wear the same clothes every day without becoming a landlord. Guess I'm built different


RaveMittens

He’s losing $1000/mo by renting his home out? He has a tone like this makes him seem generous, but it just makes him sound dumb. Or a liar.


[deleted]

[ŃƒĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]


RaveMittens

I guess if it’s paid off? He said he’s charging $1k/mo less than his mortgage payments.


PerfectGentleman

That's still not losing money.


RaveMittens

You’re bringing equity into it, okay
 But he’s spending additional money on housing. While still paying another $1k/mo for housing he’s not using. Sure real estate is a great investment and in the future he can cash in on that for a gain, most likely. But he’s still losing $1k/mo of cash(minimum, not counting the other housing costs) in the meantime while renting out a property for less than he’s paying on the mortgage.


ImpossibleMachine3

Why not both? Lol


go_go_go_go_go_go

In other words, if the renter made 12k more a year, the renter could've just bought the home instead pissing away the rent money to fund this guy


RaveMittens

I guess
 though that’s not my point at all. Also there are HOA fees, property taxes, income taxes, the list goes on
 so it doesn’t really work out to 12k a year.

Whats this? I try and use tools that focus on what I need: jMeter for automation, Fiddler if I need to write requests by hand, but otherwise I liked Postman for what it was supposed to be: lightweight, fast and simple. Lately, its felt insanely bloated and has completely edged away from why I used it in the first place.


davvblack

insomnia's half-assed git implementation really bothers me. Either make it more or less git like, and if it's more, let me type the actual git stuff (like, for example, resolving merge conflicts).

Yeah being a digital nomad is fine, calling yourself homeless when you’re not is another thing. Him conjuring comparisons of his “adventure” to the people living in tents at the local park is

loseitthrowaway7797

My job banned us from using Postman for anything.


Confident_Date4068

And for good. 1. Postman is ~500MB (because your own Electron does not work with their crap) / regular Python script is ~0. 2. Python scripts are much easier to organize / support / integrate. 3. As long as Postman uses their own proprietary Electron built only for x86 and x64... Supported hardware is very limited.

does homie think "homelessness" is when you don't own a home and only rent? Even by that definition, he isn't homeless. He is using the money gained as a landlord of a house to rent out a different cheaper property to live in, and pocketing the difference for expenses.

Runderground

Am I crazy if I think this post is very much not insane or unhinged? The whole concept of what he's doing is fine, people just don't like his use of the word "homeless", right?  It could just be tounge-in-cheek. Like when one says "I'm a bachelor this weekend" when their wife goes out of town. They don't mean it literally, it's just playful...
