Ever tried opening up x15 IntelliJ IDEA's sessions with all different repos at the same time after 3 months, so all of them would trigger reindexing?

There's the first time for everything I guess...

They sell billions of prozac pills everyday. Prozac is well-known for increasing suicidal ideation either at the start or at the end.

There are LSD analog who does not produce any psycho-active effect but increase neuroplasticity (building new neurones, new connection and thus new coping mechanisms) and increase moods.

If these idiots didn't forbid drugs even for scientists we would have solved depression by now.

Been having stomach pains since I read my boss's email, giving me new tasks.

This is becoming regular btw. It happens even when I run into him.

Any advice for how to manage?

2010 was 15 years ago.

My life feels like a video game dialogue where there's no right thing to say and no right action to make.

Anyone played the Elden Ring nightreign demo?

my luck is terrible

woke up this morning to a blizzard. I love snow though. had to walk middle of the road because the sidewalks had a meter of snow. so fun. tons of people shoveling their cars, interrupts to their day and awkward problem solving (love it!), even saw some people traversing the city in snowshoes... never seen Canadians not magically clear snow instantly!

got my stuff, came home, showered, put coffee on to make, decided I was gonna do a lot of laundry and clean the place. was listening to podcasts, ate cake and coffee, went nuts cleaning the apartment. even did some impromptu gardening because my plants needed some TLC. my muscles were exhausted and it was awesome

... got a new blanket on Valentine's day from the boyfriend. well turns out it's flammable or something. messed up my drying machine. ended up messing up the laundry load and just putting up clothes to dry hanging... lame. tried to fix the blanket best I can wtf.

... but while sweeping and trying to make sure the drying machine was adequately vented out... my phone slipped out of my hoodie pocket and dropped on my toe... and cracked in half

I am in despair now, irrationally

I also feel irrational fear on the matter

the phone works perfectly fine... there's just a crack across. sensors all good, visuals all fine. but noticing the air bubble in the screen protector, the tiny crack in the correct lighting, just makes me feel like such crap

feel so cursed and like everything I touch breaks. my laptop is also broken... a screw fell off the corner. I just feel so cursed. grrrr. and I don't get the irrational fear. now the reminder on my phone screen... this phone slips out of everything, I've had it fall often, but I guess because this time it landed on my toe and not flat on the screen the weight distribution made it crack. probably next time it slips somewhere it will break entirely 😔

just irrationally in fear, grief, whyyy 😭

Remember that I said that many of y'all here can be YouTubers?

I posted a roadmap video for you to become one

Watch it, implement it and watch the $$$ roll in.

Day 27 of starving myself to death challenge. I feel straight up euphoric.

For Devs, do you upload your projects via self server or serverless and why?

I hate tech.

Trying to find a solution to problem in tech:
- 5 to 10 minutes searching for the correct terminology for the problem you are having.
- 5 to 10 minutes trying to find a solution.
- 5 to 10 minutes trying to find the correct terminology because the first terminology was wrong.
- 5 to 10 minutes finding the correct solution for your platform version.
- all the while dodging sketchy AI results
- Either you find a solution or you find it can't be fixed on your platform because X vendor is a POS.

So, this is not quite what happened today, but it pisses me off. I cannot imagine not being non-technical trying to use any platform this day and age.

I am trying to access data off of a backup. The data I want is in a user directory on a windows backup. I cannot get to user content because the user for the machine the backup came from is not known. I try with explorer and it says I need to elevate priv. So I do. It sits there and just spins icon doing nothing forever. The volume for viewing the backup is read only (actually a good idea, but annoying, can't change permissions).

So I remember that explorer artificially enforces permissions on folders. So I get Q-Dir which has worked in the past. So I get it installed and it fails to elevate privs. WTF! Everywhere I search I see no solution and shitty AI results. Then from the back of my mind I remember. Run Q-Dir as admin (which doesn't work on explorer due to artificial enforcement). So I do. It can access anything from the backup regardless of location.

WHY THE FUCK DO THESE BULLSHIT BARRIERS EXIST? It only causes frustration from users and locks people out of their data.

I hate technology.

Yay, back to no #2 club!

You'd think that after doing this for 8 years I would've gotten better at estimates...

Combined some AI technologies using Snek chat leading to amazing prompts and using an amazing image LLM, BordedDev and I generated new Pokemon. The results are amazing. The names are invented by AI too. It understood the pokemon word fantastic. See comments.

What is your favorite?

Day 26 of starving myself to death challenge. Lost around a kilo yesterday, so no fasting today!
On an unrelated note… WHY does EVERYONE do EVERYTHING wrong? When did the stupid bomb go off and irradiate everyone with stupid rays? Why is every feature of every man-made physical object misaligned? Why is every UI just plain wrong? Why is everyone so damn stupid?

Did anyone here use .NET AOT/Native?
since it isnt CLR/VM dependent, theoretically it should be more performant, even if with a few limitations

my "Even if 5% perf increase, it's worth a code-refactor" senses are tingling 💀 someone give me a push to take the plunge
