Android studio gradle nightmares, cli not picking active jdk, intellij maven horrorshow, vscode being the nexus of perdition itself. When I'm dead and gone, scatter my ashes over sublime text. NEVER encountered a headache, ever. The setting for autosave is one forum visit away. 1000s of utilities at my fingertips, with shortcuts, not silly plugins. Neither hangs nor fusses irrespective of how many windows, projects, tabs I've got open. Gargantuan code real estate despite having a file panel and file preview. The only guys who got monokai right. Can open random editors and fill them with notes without first saving. A more intuitive vcs gui than even github desktop. More lightweight to download than an beep.ogg. Never lags cuz it wants to be powered by a wind turbine. It's free. Literally all the sorrows that terrorise my dev in its peers, all gone

Yes, it's not "integrated" to my de, in the sense that its intellisense is a glorified autocomplete for existing tokens. I guess, tradeoffs must be made. If you know the language well enough not to grope handheld by the ide, or in dynamic typed languages where red, squiggly lines will not bring your software down to its knees, it should be head and shoulders above those conartistes

Have you ever applied for a job and then spiraled after a few days of not hearing anything back?

Me too! 🙄😭😭😭

Mind Blown...

So I was in a meeting with another dev talking to a customer. He instructed the customer to open a command prompt in Windows. Then to use the SSH command. In my mind I was assuming he had told the client to install SSH beforehand. Later I started thinking about it and did a search. Apparently Windows 10/11 have a version of OpenSSH installed by default. I had used Windows 7 in the past and always installed git shell to get this. So in my Windows 10 I did the same thing. git shell also supports aliases and other nice *nix like scripting features. So it is always a win.

So hear I am realizing SSH is installed by default on newer windows systems. Like damn, I never thought I would see the day. I think I still prefer git shell, but having SSH by default is nice to know. I know they got the subsystem shit to get Linux. But not everyone wants or needs that.

I probably should learn what is in Windows these days. lol. I mean, besides malware.

I'm getting up in 6h then I'll have to work on that shit codebase on problems I don't give a fuck about again.

fml, why can't I just code my stuff alone ?

Write and Schedule tasks that siphon stipends from my "esteemed customers" wallets into personal coffers. Call that con jobs

"Can you build a work schedule planner windows application for us? We want to import jobs from excel, automatically schedule them by about 10 rules, generate a year calendar with them and also an export as excel for another tool to import it.
We would have to use it on Friday" - Wednesday morning meeting

The most productive way of development is going slow and don't make a lot mistakes. Lately, I'm doing the opposite. It's often not your skills or knowledge but just your patience / expectation to be managed. Since I switched from C to Python I got the mindset that everything should be possible to make in short time with low effort. Being used to do a lot of effort because of C development gave me a lot of patience and upgraded me to be a better dev at any language. But sadly, I notice it's a skill you can lose. How to retrain my patience. Doing a lot of C again. But I want to have the patience NOW (retoor said impatiently). What a paradoxale dilemma shit. You have to do patient stuff to be become patient whey really sucks and sucks if you became inpatient.

Very underrated skill that actually says a lot about you as programmer: patience.

With enough patience you can master anything. Without it, you're depending on tools that allow you to. That's OK, but there's always some price to be paid. Many time it's the ignorance not knowing how the tools work and thus how it actually works. Some people can live with that, others don't. Knowing how somethings works is relative anyway. Do you know how it works until the language level? Kernel level? Framework level? Everyone chooses themselves what the limit is I guess. My limit is the C api / kernel interface.

Random thoughts. I'm just bit frustrating performing low lately and speculating about what to do about it. I just don't have a different hobby than programming. Doing something else for a while to give brain a rest would be best but it should be something raising dopemine. TV / gaming doesn't do that for me.

Sigh, how to do absolutely nothing. I did it for a 1,5 year full time but that was because of medication. Now it's impossible.

Wtf happened to vuejs chrome extension. It invades the actual page now.

Had a dream that I remapped Copy to Command and Paste to Option, and it started a new vim-vs-emacs type war.

Attempting to find usable data.

PM: but we have data.
Me: we have data bags. But data in there is not uniform, the time series have different lengths, and some fields are missing cuz ROS does magic. Plus, that new data type you've introduced, doesn't actually have a set in stone schema so it's free for all. You literally do not have enough data for one decent quick study.
PM: but we have vision data.
Me: ... But we're not a vision department. where's the robot data.
PM: idk. Go ask others.

Me: *drags own hair out* 💀

For any network security gurus, quick question

Does disabling NSAllowsArbitraryLoads on iOS add latency to network requests over http? if yes why?

I hate bash scripting so much !
What a shit language, its inconsistent af
Its just a pile of hacks upon hacks upon hacks. Theres no rime or reason to bash expansion, or to working with arrays.
Sometimes "$@" is a list, sometimes its not... Because fuck u thats why

So im doing a coding project at work, that has to be in bash for reasons.
It already feels like giving birth, llms are hard-carrying me and im not proud of it

And every time i think im done, and i can close this fucking epic, some issue pops up that necessitates a re-write
3rd one is also a no go apparently

And this all happened because *someone* in another department couldn't be fucked to implement the proper solution for this.
The scope of this piece of shit script keeps growing, because every month they be like

"oh this feature of service xyz ? Nah turns out we cant do that sowwy. But you can implement a workaround in bash right??

If you truly like bash as a language, you're cooked brother. you need to seek professional help :skull:

I work with idiots.

That is all.

Digiton, the US state, was founded by Antonio Maria Digiton in 1972. It was reserved for NSFL content creators that mutilated small animals.

We have in our company an 8 GB Ram Intel MacBook Pro that they give to any new Mobile developers and is always returned bc the ram is not enough.

You’d have thought they understood after 3 years. But I just found out they still do it lol.

say all you like about gpt, but this is really cool. I've already digested api docs to test it out. Worked beautifully!

Guys theoretically could one basejump from a trebuchet?

i am shitting rn. in 15 minutes i have a daily meeting. will i make it on time? we'll see! will update you in the comments!
