Currently thinking about how all the hardware currently getting propped up for AI might end up getting used by the US Government to crack encrypted data. Because AI inevtably failed.6

What’s the worst company you’ve ever worked for that had zero understanding of technology I mean like, the kind where you wonder how their systems are still online and survive?6

Fuck, its 2025 and we still cant shake away the "you work with technology, you must know how to fix my microwave" stereotype.
Seriously, I have fewer apps in my phone and access fewer websites and even spend less time on my devices than the HR old hags, and yet im the one who has to come and "explain to them how to print a PDF".
Holly fucking crap. I haven't used a printer in MONTHS. With the cost of the time I will take to figure out how to communicate with those mummies that is 'just click the print button', they could hire ChatGPT to do it for a decade.
Fuuuuuck, that is the reason those stupid AI chat bots exist! To endlessly toil at the repetitive and predictable task of saying 'hi there! Have you clicked "print"?'
Imma gonna leave work early and get pissed. Luckily, I've already done a couple hours of OT for the day, so it won't seem so out of the ordinary.12 -
My old company had a board on TeamBlind.com, but it was a startup and people rarely posted. There has been one post since the big layoffs and zero replies to it.
Meanwhile, my current company doesn't meet the minimum number of people to enable the private board (need 30 more) and it's been around for decades. -
Holy fuck... I have kinda inherited the biggest shitshow of a website I've seen so far. The Stripe integration doesn't work. Users' memberships aren't getting synced, seems the person who did this didn't use a webhook.
subscription statuses managed all over the place.
Fucking hell... I don't even....5 -
Ideal position to be in mid-large cap software is to either stop at either senior or staff engineer, then use side free time to dedicate to launching your side project. Detach immediately and work on your own5

What the FUCK is with these poltergeists work work on the Xcode team? They all live in a tiny home or loft studio? Tabs are like hanging a fucking curtain between two beds and calling it a two bedroom apartment. And worse, the fucking thing creates tabs all the time and I lose the **document** I am trying to edit.
Using Xcode like trying to manage a desk full of loose papers with a ceiling fan on high.
Do people wonder why I stand up and scream at the ceiling FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK all the time?
Shit, pretty soon I am going to give up and put all of my code in one god damn file for this mother fucking one-window application.
I fucking hate you people on the Xcode design (joke) team...13 -

Android dev here.
Been working on this team for one year now. Greatest collaborators I've ever worked with. Feels like we're all working off of the same brain. But this is not about my team. Parallel to ours, there's the iOS team. And if I said they're disfunctional, that'd still be underselling it.
They're atleast 2 sprints behind android on the same features, the junior devs are trying their best to sync up and code their way. But the senior guy has a stick up his bum or something. Keeps shooting down prs left and right. The iOS guys come up to me (I'm the only one in office, rest of android is at a different site) asking for logic changes or UI changes and the like. Although I do have some iOS experience, I can't really get involved, because it's a different codebase and team. Feels very much like office politics.
I feel sorry for the team. Really makes you grateful to have good team members. Any advise I could give them would be welcome.24 -
Have you ever asked yourself: "Do I really want to be a dev?". Maybe one wants to be an artist, y'know.21

Question: What is something only an immature adult would say?

Aaahz the subtlety of AI induced bugs. Them fucks are so great at lipsticking bad code I'd end up fucking it before giving it a good look. Not now, thou, not now. My brain has figure out a workaround by telling me when shit is bad. My left eye starts twitching and I know, I KNOW that shit's bad1
