"We wanted to let you know about X. (Bla bla bla…) Do you want to activate X now?"

[Yes, activate X]
[Remind me later]

How about a fucking 3rd option: Never ask me again? 🤬

Fucking hate those dark patterns!

Had a coding challenge.

I write the code, it's easy enough. All the tests are passing.

Yet the IA decided my code was 80%. The threshold is 90%.

That's fucking bullshit omg

before, when I was younger, whenever I knew someone was wrong and I could prove it, i would do it... Nowadays I don't a fuck, let them burn

Can ill people please stay home :(

Now I also caught the flu :(

i cannot believe this actually fucking happened.

i was sitting and tried to fart.

turned out it was a liquid diarrhea.

I FUCKING SHIT IN MY PANTS.

AND NOW I HAVE TO CLEAN THIS SHIT UP AND TAKE A SHOWER ONCE AGAIN.

HOW THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN?????

A guy was saying the police must beat up people more.

I asked him if he beat up his kids.

Then said I was joking, that I know he was. Like he had been.

He said he had been beaten as a kid by LGBT propaganda.

I told him I totally got it. I mean you're young, you hear about two man making love, your pp grows, normal am I right?

He deleted his account lmao

Damn gay propagandist

My wife asked me if I could take a look at her keyboard because some of the keys suddenly had stopped working.
I checked the keyboard and saw that crumbs were literally blocking the keys. I gave it a shake, the crumbs fell out, and the keyboard started working again.

Working on a really neat idea app for client as a consultant.The app is in production and has active users. Sounds great except few facts like...

...every developer left the company, no handover whatsoever, no documentation, founder is vibe coding the app with claude and pushes like 500 times daily directly to master, production breaks every minute, its a slow dockerized nextjs fullstack app - literally waiting like half a minute when clicking on a link locally, prisma migrations don't work at all, also a lot of unfinished integrations with 3rd party services...

First time working on the vibe coded app, certainly will be also last. No money will get me into project like this again. Good thing is that I am almost over with it. Will never look back!

Also next js no more, I'll rather herd goats on a mountain than fixing someone elses nextjs sloppy app again.

Happy Friday everyone! 💕

I'm starting to wonder if the modern job market has changed in such a way that they now require you to have Senior skills if you apply for a Senior position - the old 'apply anyway' does not seem to hold true anymore. This is the experience I have been getting from my latest interviews. If they ask for someone who's a guru in C#... well then, you better be the greatest living legend in it, and no less will do, neither any amount of sales talk.

It's just that; they're asking for real skill nowadays, obviously because the job market is going downwards again and companies are taking no risks... the effect is: either you're really good or we're not hiring you. That must also explain the lack of junior positions... I used to see much more of those around. Now it's all spammed with Senior in the title.

Tips for staying productive?

How do you guys deal with juniors?

I’m currently going through the experience of having a junior coworker, and it’s been something completely new for me. In my previous jobs, I’ve always worked with colleagues who were at the same level or more experienced than me, so I’m not used to reviewing code or guiding someone on how things should be done.

To make it trickier, this guy tends to “vibecode” a lot, to the point that he can’t even explain what the code his Copilot spits out is doing.

I don’t really blame him though. Most of the mistakes he makes are things I’ve done myself at some point (like overcomplicating simple tasks). But now he keeps coming to me as if I’m his mentor, and honestly, I have no idea what to do with this guy lol.

I know I have a problem with asking for help. I'm aware it's a problem, I want to solve it, and I'm trying, but this is easier said than done.

In my defense however, the issues I'd need to ask for help with are completely absurd. We have a shared Feature environment with a shared database. A push to any feature branch auto-applies migrations to this database, so it's full of broken script output. Tests are supposed to use this database. We do not have full rights to edit this database so we can't try and fix the issues. Instead, the database is reset from production once a week, discarding all changes including anything we deliberately put there for testing. I asked who broke the database and if they could fix it please, somebody responded with freeform text roughly describing the fixes _I should apply to fix HIS TEAM'S mess_, which didn't include any technical identifiers and referred to tables and columns exclusively via vague approximate names.

He then posted a screenshot of an e-mail from about a month ago in which HE complained to MY team lead about how "some people" keep breaking the database, which contained no examples and no suggestions, but was sent immediately after the first time this year that we actually properly broke the shared database. By that point they were past their 10th broken migration that warranted an early restore.

Apparantly I have a shopping cart at my disposal for shoving around hardware.

every time I correct the AI it gives me compliments

and it keeps giving me fuzzy feelings now

but I'm a robot. this isn't supposed to happen. get out of my head!

"You have 40 minutes to design this database" (job interview)

So many tree potatoes. They're everywhere.

"Good morning" no longer a greeting

It's just a proof you've logged in for the day

(WFH)

losing a contract should not feel like being fired, but when it's half your income it certainly does feel a lot like it.

I got arrested yesterday lmao

I saw a cop on a kid, then an unmarked one hitting the people. I screamed "HEY YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO WEAR ID, THAT'S ILLEGAL".

12 hours of cells lmao
