Seriously, how am I still in a good mood when I have to deal with this?

    I always chuck it up to, "if I don't laugh, I'd cry"

    Plus, it's Ruby, so there's that to be happy about.

    I love debugging other people's code. It's a completely different challenge to my day-to-day and so it feels more like a game.

    But if fixing others shit is your day-to-day, it eventually turns into candy crush

    To add a little more info to this, it’s a race condition in some JavaScript produced by a gem (with a >90% failure rate locally…), and the best solution I found was to replace some of it via regex scalpel. Yay for setTimeout.

    I have no idea how anyone can release code like this.

    It literally:
    1) Includes external library
    2) immediately uses something defined by that library
    3) throws because that isn’t defined yet

    Sometimes, insanity just gets you, my dear. Then you just go with "oh, ok.. *switches to heavy metal channel*.."

    I guess someone doesn’t understand async then lol. That’s pretty bad, hopefully this is from a junior

    I like to grumble in a similar manner as long as I don’t have an asshole for a boss
