Working with different nationalities is interesting, and sometimes kind of bewildering. And tiring.

I've been working with an Indian dev for a little while, and while she's a decent dev, interactions with her sometimes leave me a little puzzled. She glazes over serious topics, totally over-sensationalizes unimportant oddities, has yet to say the word "no," and she refers to the senior devs as (quote) "the legends." Also, when asked a question by her boss, like "Are you familiar with this?" Instead of a simple yes/no answer, she shows off a little. Fair, I do this sometimes too, but it's a regular thing with her. Also, like most Indians I've known and/or worked with, she has a very strict class-and-caste view of the world. It honestly makes me a little uncomfortable with how she views people, like certain people belong in certain boxes, how some boxes (and therefore their contents) are inherently better than others, and how it's difficult or simply impossible to move between boxes. My obviously westerner view of things is that you can pick where you want to be and what you want to do, and all it takes to get there is acquiring the proper skills and putting in the required effort. I see no boxes at all, just a sprawling web of trades/specialities. And those legends she talks about? They're good devs with more knowledge than me, but only one, maybe two of them are better devs. I see them as coworkers and leads, not legends. Legends would be the likes of Ada Lovelace, Dennis Ritchie, Yukihuro Matsumoto, and Satoshi Nakamoto. (Among others, obv.). To call a lead dev a legend is just strange to me, unless they're actually deserving, but we don't work with anyone like Wozniak or Carmack.

Since I'm apparently ranting about her a little, let me continue. She's also extremely difficult to understand. Not because of her words or her accent, but I can't ever figure out what she's trying to get across. The words fit together and make valid sentences, but the sentences don't often make sense with one another, and all put together... I'm just totally lost. To be a math nerd, like the two conversations are skew lines: very similar, but can never intersect. What's more, if I say I don't understand and ask for clarification, she refuses and says she doesn't want to confuse me further, and to just do what I think is best. It's incredibly frustrating.

Specifically, we're trying to split up functionality on a ticket -- she's part of a different dev team (accounting), and really should own the accounting portion since she will be responsible for it, but there's no clear boundary in the codebase. Trying to discuss this has been... difficult.

Anyway.

Sometimes other cultures' world views are just puzzling, or even kind of alien. This Irish/Chinese guy stayed at my parents' house for a week. He had red hair, and his facial features were about 3/4 Chinese. He looked strange and really interesting. I can't really explain it, but interacting with him felt like talking to basically any other guy I've known, except sometimes his mannerisms and behavior were just shockingly strange and unexpected, and he occasionally made so little sense to me that I was really taken aback.

This Chinese manager I had valued appearances and percieved honors more than anything else. He cared about punctuality and attire more than productivity. Instead of giving raises for good work or promotions, he would give fancy new titles and maybe allow you to move your desk somewhere with a better view of your coworkers. Not somewhere nicer; somewhere more prominent. How he made connections between concepts was also very strange, like the Chinese/Irish guy earlier. The site templating system was a "bridge?" Idk? He also talked luck with his investors (who were also Chinese), and they would often take the investment money to the casino to see if luck was in the company's favor. Not even kidding.

Also! the Iranian people I've known. They've shown very little emotion, except occasionally anger. If I tried to appease them, they would spurn and insult me, but if I met their anger, they would immediately return to being calm, and always seemed to respect me more afterward. Again, it's a little puzzling. By contrast, meeting an American's anger often makes them dislike you, and exceeding it tends to begin a rivalry.

It's neat seeing how people of different nationalities have different perspectives and world views and think so very differently. but it can also be a little tiring always having to translate and to switch behavior styles, sometimes even between sentences.

It's also frustrating when we simply cannot communicate despite having a language in common.

At my fucking wits end, but coding will help me prevail.

Got kicked out my apartment because I couldn't make the payment. Fucking job I have is fucking useless (dev and administrator) in terms of pay. They basically have me by the balls. Can't leave because I need the money, need to leave because I need more money.

Fuck it. Tired of eating noodles and ramen. Tired of being fucked around like this. Paying for my own studies has fucked me harder than a bottle of tequila and a casino trip.

But I shall code, and I shall code until I prevail.

To the place I work for, fuck you (not being unfair, I earn less than the receptionist and I have a degree, a plethora of certs, and a few years exp). My time will come, and when it does, I'll come out on top.

Until then, I rant and code.

Warning: long read....

I got a call this morning from a client who was panicking about not being able to login to his web panel.

So I went to the web panel and tried to login and was just redirected back to the login page. No errors or anything (at least visible on the page). Went looking for an error_log file and found it.

It turns out there was an error was showing: Disk quota exceeded.

So I went into the cPanel and checked, he used about 16GB out of 100GB and that got me confused. So I looked around and found out he was using about 510000/500000 inodes.

Went looking trough FTP to see where he has so many files and try and remove some.

Well it turns out that there were about 7 injected websites (warez, online casino, affiliate one etc) and a full hacking web panel on his FTP. After detailed analysis some who actually built the site (I just maintain some parts) made an upload form available to public with any checks on it. Meaning anyone could upload whatever they wanted and the form would allow it.

The worst part is that the client is not allowing us to secure the form with some sort of login or remove it completely (the best option) as it is not really needed but he uses it to upload some pdf catalogs or something.

TL; DR;
Old programmer created an upload form that was accessible to anyone on the web without adding any security or check as to see what kind of files was getting uploaded. Which lead to having maximum number on inodes used on server and client being unable to login.

Side note:
And ofc I had to go and fix the mess behind him again, even though he stopped working a long time ago and I started just recently and have been having nightmares of this project.

I think Suicide Linux is a little heavy handed. Really? One mistake erases your hard drive? Please, let's make things interesting.

I would rather use Casino Linux.... try your luck. Any mistake sets a random single bit on your computer to 0. You could be lucky and it would set unused memory to 0, doing nothing. You could be an unlucky bastard and corrupt everything. You could be a super unlucky bastard and corrupt something important and only find out much, much too late.

I'm asking for $90,000 to start my business for 2% share of my company

I'm at a casino and can't stop thinking about how these terrible machines are programmed, and how likely I am to lose any money I bet.

RANT:
Google is just a steaming pile of shit!!

I've recently installed LineageOS onto my phone and wanted to degooglify my life.

So my current Smartphone doesn't have any GApps installed and I get along fairly well.

Should I need anything, I should just be able to use it in my browser right?
RIGHT?

Nono!! As soon as I want to log into a third party Service using Google (older acccounts with the other choice only being Facebook) I need to "verify my identity". And the only option are my old smartphone who still have Gapps on it but are slow and don't accessible when I'm away!

For those who say: "Google is just beeing secure. They don't want anyone to steal your account.". I USE 2FA AND HAVE BACKUP CODES.
BEFORE DEGOOGLING MY DEVICE IT NEVER ASKED SUCH A THING!!! WHAT A PILE OF SPYING SHIT!!!

And the best part, after I remotely started my PC at home and just want to take a screenshot of the message for this post before just using a working session, the message didn't appear.
Somehow google decided that me logging in 15 mins later (same ip) proves my identity?!?!?!

IF THIS CAN BE ATTRIBUTED TO AI. FUCK THIS SHIT. GOOGLED SHOULD BE TREATED LIKE AN ONLINE CASINO BECAUSE THE CHANCE OF JUST GETTING LOGGED SEEMS COMPLETELY RANDOM!!!

(I also had this prior when using my smartphone browser. There I couldn't "circumvent" this and I was at home. But having this shit on my browser which should've a session is unacceptable.)

Prior to a tech conference in Las Vegas, the department manager held pre-meetings (yes, more than one)
with the developers to outline their expected behavior (yes, there was an outline in Word). Since
they would be representing the company, professionalism would be expected at all times, not just
during the conference. He knew he couldn’t forbid gambling and drinking, but any unruly behavior
that could reflect badly on the company would be dealt with severe disciplinary action up to and
including termination. He wrote up very detailed itinerary, what track each developer was
expected to attend, meal times (yes, what time to get up for breakfast, meet for lunch, and time
to eat at night). First day was fine, casinos are kinda crazy so having an itinerary wasn’t the
worst idea and no one got lost. Days following however, got interesting. After the first evening
meal, everyone hit the casino as expected (too much drinking, etc..normal single twenty-something
guys do) and the manager especially had a good time.
Next, and following days, the manager could not be found in any of the ‘required’ technical tracks.
Not that they cared that much, but couple of devs decided to check out the casino, and sure enough,
there he was at one of the tables, drunk, and being very loud around at 10 in the morning.
Again, nobody cared much, manager wasn’t very tech savy, and so attending a track on C #threading
would be lost on him. It was more of ‘do as I say, not as I do’ kind of thing.
The manager kept to the itinerary, he met everyone at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, etc, but the
‘WTF’s didn’t get good until the manager was bragging about how wonderful the conference was, how
much he was learning and couldn’t wait to get back and start implementing everything he was learning.
It was such a joke, the guys would bait him on tracks they know he didn’t attend and an amazing amount
of BS could not be believed.
On the last day of the conference several decided to follow him after breakfast to see where he went
and watched him go into a technical track, just to walk back out and straight to the casino floor.
Again, around 10, he was drunk, not quite as loud until he threw up in a trash can (they said it was quite a scene).
He left to go back his room, which they suspected he took a nap before meeting everyone for lunch.
After that, they gathered his daily itinerary was:
- Get up for breakfast
- walk around and make sure it looked like he was heading to a track
- head to the casino
- take a nap
- eat lunch
- walk around some more
- head to the casino
- take a nap
- eat dinner
- head to the casino
- wash-rinse-repeat
Last day caught up with him. After about week of drinking, staying up late, etc, his body (he’s in his mid 50’s, 350lbs+, so imagine)
kinda’ gave up. Could barely walk 50 feet without needing to sit down, and the flight back was worse for everyone,
throwing up occasionally, moaning, you get the idea.
On the following Monday with the VP if IT, everyone was discussing the conference, what they learned,
what they liked, etc, the manager also bragged, yes bragged, on how tired he was because of how much
he learned and the reason why he probably caught the flu (he couldn’t hide how sick he was on the flight)
saying “When you’re in the learning zone, you lose track of time and then you are so exhausted, your
immune system is susceptible to all kinds of things.” . VP was so impressed by his dedication and
fighting through the exhaustion for the good of the company, he gave him the rest of the day off.
Other devs? No, they had to go back to work.

A very nice restaurant in a Vegas casino at 3am.

A friend and I were working on a project after defcon, and we got hungry. It's Vegas, so we have no clue what time it is except for our laptop clocks. And who cares anyways. Time is irrelevant in Vegas. So we got a table at a steak place at Caesars palace. And just dropped our laptops on the table and kept coding.

Customer is not always right :(

I once had an interview at a restaurant named CASINO. As I was about to go into the interview room to meet with the manager a current employee whispered furtively to me, "He is really small".

I once wanted to make easy money by becoming a professional poker player. I did this by programming a poker simulator and calculate chances with certain cards and stuff. To assure you have 6.**% winning (mathematical chance calculated) of a hand takes around 3k simulations to cancel out the luck. So don't trust to much on your math.

That went well, but that wasn't all that there was to learn, you could even consider a small start. Long story short, I became quite a good player and won a lot with Appeak Poker (Great app! No adverts!). Now, I opened a while ago an account at the Holland Casino to make some money. But they were playing on such low wages that it was just not interesting and I quitted. Today I realized I had still an account with money on it and thought "let's get over wit it" so i did aggressive betting on red (1:st 40% all in, lost, 2nd 100% all in won) in a roulette game. In the end I had a few euro profit so the gambling adventure never costed me money.

Another reason the poker carreer ended is because I realized it's not a quick way to make money at all and the gambling factor was too high. I expected poker a bit to be more strategy.

I even consider the best poker spelers maybe to just be lucky bastards in some cases. Poker stars is fun to see on youtube tough, they're bullshitting a lot.

I consider gambling for losers. Poker, you can become really good in it, but still some luck is required. Not bad luck at least. You can lose with a multiple of quite good hands.

Fact: one of the best poker players is actually a software developer

So tired of app developers localizing app information with Google Translate. Use a real person that can READ AND WRITE IN THE FUCKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE or scrap the entire translation and do marketing in English. And Google? Why the fuck do you allow people to embarrass themselves by providing machine translated SHIT in the Store Listing options?

Some gems found on Google Play Store, translated from Norwegian to English the way I as Norwegian interpret them.

How to Choose a Great Online Casino?
When it comes to picking the right online casino, it can be a bit overwhelming with so many options out there. I’ve been doing some research and realized that it’s not just about the games – security, customer service, and the bonuses they offer are huge factors too. How do you go about choosing a casino that’s trustworthy and fun? Any tips or recommendations on what to look for?

I run a small review site that focuses on online casino bonuses, game descriptions, and rankings. The structure is pretty typical. The current version is mostly static with some templating and tracking tools.

Lately, I’ve been considering adding some kind of community feature. I’ve seen other platforms mix review content with user forums, and it seems to boost engagement and trust.

From a technical standpoint, I’m not sure what the best approach is. Would integrating a comment system or even a forum be worth the effort? I’m concerned about performance, spam, and moderation.

If anyone here has transitioned from a static content model to something more interactive, I’d appreciate your input. What challenges should I expect?

Not dev related but I hope you all tell me I'm a good person anyway.

Just spent 2 hours trying to park to go to casino. Walked 30 minutes. Sat at the poker table. And got rekt in my first 20 minutes... Feels bad man. Lost $420. I hope I'm not as bad at coding as I am playing poker hahahaha kill me now plz. ..

Can someone help me with casino choice?

When Rahul, a passionate gambler from India, first heard about the potential to win real money on online slots, he was a bit skeptical. He was used to traditional casinos, where he could feel the atmosphere and adrenaline of the game. But with the growth of the internet and mobile technologies, Rahul realized that the world of gambling was evolving — online slots had become an essential part of the industry.

One day, while browsing the internet, he came across the guide to the best slots to play online for real money in India and decided it was time to try something new. The guide explained how to choose the best slots, which offer high chances of winning, interesting bonuses, and huge jackpots. Rahul was intrigued and wanted to see which games might bring him real winnings.

The first thing Rahul learned was that when choosing a slot for real money play, he needed to pay attention to the Return to Player (RTP) percentage. He realized that the higher the RTP, the better the long-term chances for players. For instance, he was surprised to find that Starburst, one of the most popular slots, had an RTP of 96%, which made it an excellent choice for beginners. Rahul decided to try it out first, and indeed, the game was not only simple but also fun, with vibrant graphics and exciting bonus features.

However, Rahul also wanted to try something more ambitious. He moved on to Mega Moolah, a progressive jackpot slot. He knew the chances of winning a big jackpot here were lower, but seeing how quickly the jackpot grew, his excitement grew as well. Inspired by the idea of winning a huge sum, Rahul decided to give it a shot. While the progressive jackpot was a bit riskier, he enjoyed the feeling that at any moment, he could land the massive win.

He also noticed that the platform he chose offered various bonuses for new players, such as free spins and deposit bonuses. He made use of these offers to increase his chances of success and enjoy the game without risking too much of his own money. In addition, the casino offered him a registration bonus, which gave a nice boost to his bankroll in the early stages of play.

Rahul didn’t just play, he also kept an eye on trends and new promotions. He realized that it was important not only to pick popular slots but also to stay aware of what casinos were offering their players. He discovered that slots like Gonzo’s Quest, with its unique avalanche mechanics and multipliers, were not only potentially profitable but also highly entertaining. It wasn’t just about spinning reels — it was an experience that kept him hooked.

Over time, Rahul became not just a successful player but a seasoned strategist. He knew which games to pick, how to use bonuses, and how to manage his bankroll. He learned that it wasn’t just about winning but playing responsibly. The guide he found became a sort of mentor for him. It helped him manage his bankroll, set limits, and make wise decisions.

What Rahul realized in the end was that the key to success in real money slot play wasn’t just about picking the right games, but also about having a well-thought-out approach. He understood that if you choose slots with high RTP, make use of bonuses, and keep an eye out for new promotions, you can significantly increase your chances of winning. But the most important thing — never forget to play responsibly.

And so, Rahul entered the world of online slots for real money. He became truly immersed in the experience, not just for the money but for the thrill of it. He enjoyed the game, where every spin of the reels was a chance for success. Though his early wins were modest, with each day, he grew more confident in his skills.

He continued to explore new slots and strategies, keeping up with changes in the industry and always being ready for new opportunities. From time to time, he would return to the guide that had helped him become a more experienced and successful player. Ultimately, he realized that playing for real money wasn’t just about making money — it was a fun and exciting experience that opened up countless new possibilities.

And so, Rahul became a confident player, one who approached slot play with strategy, knew when to stop, and always made sure he played responsibly. And, of course, his journey was just beginning.

I thought I had hit the jackpot when I stumbled upon an enticing crypto casino promising huge payouts and "provably fair" games. The website was sleek, with vibrant graphics and testimonials from users claiming life-changing wins. Intrigued, I decided to take the plunge and deposited 2 BTC, which was worth over $120,000 at the time. The thrill of the gamble was exhilarating, and I quickly found myself on a winning streak, doubling my balance in just a few days. It felt like I was on top of the world, convinced that I had found a legitimate platform that would reward my risk-taking. The excitement turned to dread when I attempted to withdraw my winnings. The site blocked my request, citing a need for "verification" and demanding additional fees that seemed unreasonable. I was taken aback; I had already provided my initial information during registration. As I navigated through the site, I noticed that the customer support was unresponsive, and the live chat feature was mysteriously offline. Days turned into a week, and my withdrawal requests continued to be ignored. Panic set in as I realized that the platform had vanished overnight, along with my hard-earned funds. The website was no longer accessible, and my emails went unanswered. Feeling desperate and defeated, I turned to DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION, a cybersecurity firm specializing in crypto fraud. Their reputation for helping victims of online scams gave me a glimmer of hope.The team at DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION quickly sprang into action. They conducted a thorough investigation, tracing the digital footprints left by the scam operation. Their expertise revealed that the site I had trusted was a known scam linked to previous gambling frauds. They provided me with detailed reports, showing how the funds were funneled through various wallets, making it difficult to track.Despite the grim situation, DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION was determined to help me recover my stolen BTC. They worked tirelessly to identify the culprits and gather evidence that could potentially lead to legal action. Their dedication was reassuring during this tumultuous time. While the road to recovery was uncertain, I felt empowered knowing that I was not alone in this fight against crypto fraud. Website; https: // dunamiscybersolution. com
