"Dreams don't always make sense. When you dream, the thoughts in your head get all mixed up into a weird movie. And they're really hard to explain, which is why they're boring to listen to. Like this one time, I had a dream, where, like, these things were being sold at the Big Donut, right? But the front door of the Big Donut shop led to the back of my dad's van? So, I go into the van, and Lion is driving, for some reason, but, he's driving really well. And then I say to him, I says Lion. *yawns* Lion, how did you learn to drive a van? You can't even, you can't..."
Every time I'm sick of life I get stupid drunk, and watch Steven Universe. -
Tr33294yWell I get paid even someone talkt about his dream with me. Also I don't have deadlines. Would love to talk about bullshit the whole day and still get paid.
-
Tr33294y@ArtOfBBQ we have one. We just don't have any short term deadlines. Because of that I can try new things, learn something to improve features or my skills etc. without getting in trouble.
It is kind of nice, to not have deadlines, but sometimes I set aside my work just because I'm not in the right mood, which is not good. -
I hope you are not talking about your 4year old , because they get pretty mouthy at that age and want to discuss all kinda things 😂

ArtOfBBQ3784y@Tr33 I think it's perfectly fine to temporarily give up when you din't feel like programming. I also think it's OK to work marathons when you're on a roll

jeeper58094ySerious consideration, even though this is dumb shit, don’t make no one in the team like you, out they’ll try and get you laid off.

Root797704y@AmbientTea You try working from home without any break from interruptions. It’s basically impossible.
I wrote down every time I switched tasks for two days, and found the average length of time I was able to stay on task was about ten minutes. This was skewed a bit because both days everyone took a three hour nap and left me alone. Apart from this, the average was about three minutes between one “hey mommy look it’s a train!” and the next. But usually it was about twenty seconds.
Could you get anything done in those conditions? Could you keep your calm after several months of this nonstop?
How about when you finally get pissed off about it and someone tells you you’re just in a mood? -
@Root if this is not me at my family every fkn day!!!
My dad wants me to spend “family time” AND TALK ABOUT WHAT?! We’ve all been in the same fucking house locked down for the last 4 fucking months and literally nothing has changed except the date on the calendar.
“Family time” = me getting lectured and I fucking hate it. It totally is a waste of time especially when I’m trying to work and my dad who isn’t in tech doesn’t get the fact that I need hours in the zone, uninterrupted, to get something valuable done.
Can’t even pursue personal projects effectively because of this dude sitting on his high chair of “you live under my roof”.
Kill me now. -
Root797704yTwo hours into my work day.
I’ve had five interruptions, two of which lasted thirty minutes each. Plus two similar level interruptions while I was eating breakfast.
I’ve gotten three minutes of actual work in.
