"unlimited time off" is a scam. Actually any non-government mandated leave is dubious.

In Australia, you get 4 weeks PTO (called "annual leave" here) by law, which accrues if you don't use it and is paid out when you resign or are laid off. Companies want you to take this leave because otherwise your accrued leave becomes a liability.

Most places I've worked, everyone sees people going on leave as a very positive thing.

We also get 10 days of sick leave which accrues every year as well so you can save your annual leave for vacations.

This happened to a guy I knew but the other way around. He turned up late to the bucks party, started crying and saying he wasn't ready for marriage and ended up cancelling everything and paying the bride-not-to-be's parents back for everything.

I think they just rushed into it and he realised at that moment.

There are plenty of developers who use macs for work, me included. I mainly go with Mac for the build quality/battery life/performance though and also because my work pays for it so I don't need to worry about the exorbitant price. I would agree that MacOS is pretty janky at times and it requires a few third party apps to be reasonable usable.

But I'm not really sure what you mean by useful bits? I don't feel like I'm really restricted in MacOS. If there isn't a UI element for something, you can probably adjust it in a terminal.

They took it further than the incorrect "would of" just to fuck with us.

I think people call languages with very few native speakers "endangered languages".

They meant that they'll live just fine. You see, they will be dead before climate change decimates our planet. 🤷‍♂️
