Millennials are getting right f*cked.
Low paying jobs,
Many hours of travel to work because one can't afford to live closeby,
working 10 hour a day, and
there is no hope of owning a home.
Then people say 'oh what do you do when you get home?'
Sleeeep for the limited hours left!
Then your partner says 'oh you just come home to sleep'
Then you have instagram and all these 'influencers' saying go after your dreams... while they very well know they only get paid for heavily edited images.
Wish things were better for everyone.25 -
These influencers man.. I just can't.
Today I was watching a video on how the education industry is a total scam. The video was quite nice, pointing to issues like, school doesn't sell us knowledge, instead it sells us Hopes And Dreams, and other things.
But at the end, the guy goes "By the way guys check out the link in description to get 15% off on this course that teaches you coding and principles of software engineering."
Sneaky Bastards.12 -
Programmer Influencers piss me off to Jupiter and back.
The ones who talk about just being a programmer, and don't do normal tutorials and solve a real-world problem and demonstrate it.

I'm about to quit without a backup plan.
It's been almost 4 years since I started working as fullstack dev in my current company, also those are the same years of experience I have working in general. Right now I feel burnt out.
I feel I haven't progressed professionally at least in the last 2 and a half years... I feel stuck. Right now I don't feel like a dev, I feel like a dude that knows how to use a framework and only makes CRUDs.
I've lost the apetite for learning, also I feel very discouraged about the industry in general, watching media full of those tech-influencers and the apperently fakeness of the culture that companies show off only helps my disappointment and discourage about the industry in general. Also the unconscious action of comparing myself with others (and impostor syndrome) makes me feel less about myself.
I didn't go to college. During my last year of school I went to a Bootcamp and started learning by myself, I felt I choosed the correct path for me, I don't regret it, but makes me feel I entered at a young age (18) and unprepared to an industry I felt I knew at least a bit (I did two interships at 16).
Right now I can only think in taking a time for me and disconnect myself from everything, finish all the books I bought, continue doing excercise and therapy and stay connected with nature.
I know that most probably what I say about the industry is wrong but what I **feel** about it right now is not.
I know is better to search for better options and places to work than just quit, but I really feel it's gonna be the same, I know it's an unfounded fear and I'm a bit blinded about it.13 -
"As it turns out, this world isn't all that complicated. It's pretty simple actually. It's all a game, a very simple game. Of course, some will try to make it difficult. But you can handle them, I know it. I know you can!"
There's a lot of truth in that. When you get into the depths of how the world works, things turn out to be pretty simple.
One thing I cannot rationalize though. The human spirit. The desires that it embodies. I've had this question for so long - what makes us humans human?
If for example a future surgeon - able to exchange individual cells between me and you - would do so, at which point do you become me, and the other way around? 50+% exchange? But that'd mean that at least part of me is still "you". In that state, are you truly you?
Not sure what the cellular definition of an individual is, given that we're headed towards a bionic society where synthetic organs will likely become more relevant than the donated parts of me that I've recently applied as a donor for. I wholeheartedly encourage that future, but the philosophical questions that surround it become more relevant.
How about the impact of influencers on the mind? For example, I've seen the term "certified enganeers" become a trend here, which I'm very grateful for. It does raise a question though. If for example I were to die, would the term live on? And if so, is that a part of what makes me "me"? Would a part of me live on in you? Would your spirit be partially me, due to mere influence?
What makes up the human creature anyway? I think of my own body as a mere vessel for my mind, but I can't quite grasp what makes up the mind, and philosophical questions like "if I were to upload my mind to a robot and instruct it to kill me, would that carbon copy become *me*?"
The human nature is such a weird thing.. and technology doesn't make it any simpler. Is it really just a simple game, with simple rules and e.g. a biological program running inside of a biological motor? Or is there more to it?24 -
Bought webshitlist.io
Wanted to make a blog where I could vent about shit on the internet like 'influencers', Facebook etc
Got bored waiting for Gems to install and played Need for Speed instead5 -
I'm the only one annoyed by the emoji abusing programming influencers?
In particular I hate their presumption in proclaiming themselves experts in something just after following a swallow online course on it.

On the game front, I see so much conflicting advice. "Start getting feedback" as soon as possible. "Donnt soft launch on steam! The algol will wreck you.", "soft launch on itch to get feedback", "dont soft launch on itch!"
"Start marketing today", "focus on influencers", "get to know communities *before* you advertise", "dont get to know communities beforehand if you're just planning on self prompting", "dont self promote".
"CPM is important.", "CPA is important". Etc.
Sounds a lot like "have a bunch of money upfront." The solution is just to succeed from the start! It's so obvious. Just invent the next gta. The next facebook. Get a small loan of 50,000 dollars, or a million. Donate for a year to other kickstarter projects so people will know you and reciprocate! But also dont ebeg!
How about no. How about fuck all this advice by silver spoon assholes that didnt have to work on shoestring budgets. The advice is the equivalent of having a 300 page tonedeaf book, every page blank except page 150, where the words "fuck you. I got mine." Are printed in times new Roman, 14pt font, neatly in the center of the page.
The truth is most of the "indies" already made it in the software industry proper, before switching over. $5k kickstarter videos, with $15k marketing budgets, no doubt funded in part through their own money funneled through services that provide shell donations, because KS is being used as a glorified advertising service. People buying off steam curators for promotions, youtubers making sponsored videos without disclosing they're sponsored. Fake viralility. Fake campaigns. Predetermined success for those who could *already* afford to develop and go commercial without a publisher. And they came into the market and cannibalized the opportunity, raising the bar for everyone that wasnt them. I guess that's actually a good thing, because we wouldnt have half the amazing games we do, and the pressure to produce quality. But then I see fantastic games utterly ignored or flailing in an attempt to compete for eyeballs in an industry frequently dominated by gatekeeping marketeers and influencers, where human grace determines success or complete oblivion. And I'm just disgusted with it.
Also buy my game. Preorder NOW! And you'll get a REAL canvas bag, I'll go to like the goodwill and buy one and screen print the game logo on it or some shit. Buy the special collectors edition and get pictures of my feet. Buy the game of the year edition and get a real gasmask. Preorder now and I'll fucking suck your di k right now. No lie. Preorder the diamond edition RIGHT NOW in the next six minutes and I will send you one hundred thousand dollars in gold plated bottle caps. Limited supply. one million per customer. Offer expires soon. This is not a scam. I repeat. This is NOT a scam.
In other news I'm soft launching Atom Ranger in six months (assuming the nuclear apocalypse hasn't *actually* started by then). Its state of decay and fallout meets rimworld. Build and manage a sprawling base, resolving conflicts, exploring post apocalyptic Colorado and surrounding territories of no-mans-land. Navigate hazardous weather, radioactive terrain, collapsed bridges, dangerous rivers, and deal with cultists, bandits, slavers, and hungry cannibals. Broker peace between not just the factions outside your settlements, but within your base too. Manage conflicts, settle disputes, avert disasters, barter, scavenge, and survive in a fully dynamic world, where buildings slowly crumble, grass and trees sprout up in the road and vacant lots, fires burn out of control, and factions loot, ruin, and takeover settlements. Watch the world and the survivors in it change and survive. Help them to survive, or become a warlord and rule over the wastes.
Lets be honest. It's basically kenshi but less complicated.
If you want to volunteer to test (instead of paying to be a glorified tester, aka "alpha") let me know in the comments.
I'm currently setting up a discord and mailing list.28 -
Youtube coding influncers are shit and do not know anything about the real world coding....
Am I the only one who feels like this???

why I say FUCK AI -
-> So much stupidity with "It will replace devs". Any dev who has more than 2 brain cells has had their issues with ChatGPT or AI knows that AI is not sufficient nor good enough to get even basic tasks done.
-> "It will be good in 5 years" - well then, talk to me after 5 years. I'm not buying a product or an idea on a "promise". I judge the tech for what it is today, not on what it can be in 5 years.
-> "Just trust me bro" - I see influencers suck that robot dick, but no explanations are given. What they say sounds to me like it's parroted off of general mass media. Nothing new to add nor any insight.
-> AI has issues that nobody seems to talk about. Hallucinations being the biggest of them all. ChatGPT tells you something, and you're supposed to take it as fact? That's too dangerous for a normal person.
-> Junior software developers are scared even to this day that AI can replace them. If they can't think for themselves, it falls upon us (or at least, me) to drive them in the correct direction or give them real opinions on what it is.22 -
I hate the tech influencers that talk about clown strike and they obviously have no idea what they’re talking about go watch John Hammond before talking about what cnn said you assfuck

I didn’t posted for a while cause I didn’t have anything interesting to say. My job is fine, got no major problems in life, everything looks good so I started thinking about the fucking civilization future stuff.
Either I’m to old or we’ll end up back in ancient Egypt one day.
The knowledge is still not moved from old to young, not categorized and protected well enough and we’re busy fighting with each other about nothing important. We’re carrying about stuff that have nothing to do with our lives. All those fucking movements make world worse place then it was. Just marginalize those that are good and give more powers to those who shout more and have more money.
As a result I think in a matter of couple generations there won’t be anyone who could replace grandfathers keeping this machine alive and future people will end up looking at pictures and videos of ancient stuff that nobody is capable of doing cause nobody understands it.
This super friendly human politics of the world like any other politics will make people unfriendly and not able to communicate with each other - stupid and unable to think reasonably.
My advice I also took as a mantra, turn off the internet and read or listen to the books - at least one book a month is your goal.
My last book I listened to was about history of gender and you know what ? I learned that clown fish can change gender when it’s young. I learned more from listening to this book for 8 hours then from a year reading stupid articles in the internet. I understand what gender is, what are the problems and all the fucking history of it staring in 1800-something or maybe even earlier. Maybe because there is still lots of difficulty to write something interesting that is more than 1 page of paper long. Most of stuff in the internet weather it’s an article or video have only 1 page amount of content. This content is none, it have no value to the community. You won’t learn anything from it. If you want to learn something read book cause making good quality book is very expensive and takes lots of person life and self esteem. Probably one book takes more time then most of influencers spend making their stupid pictures and stuff like that.
That’s sad truth of our times. We turned technology made for knowledge exchange to advertising tv - again. -
I’ve been an angry old man this week. Frustration is a bitch, especially when you can’t really pinpoint the source of it with any resemblance of certainty.
Maybe it’s that having been constantly stressing over the impending graduation and the effort required to get there with too little time and energy to actually achieve it is boiling over.
Maybe it’s the reality of having absolutely zero me time since last March playing fucking ping pong with my head.
Maybe it’s me having trouble getting back to terms with a certain codebase after being assigned to other projects for the last almost 1,5 years and now trying to finish something the ex-lead started before he left.
And most certainly it’s the constant stream of brainless verbal vomit that raises the misanthropy levels through the roof.
Fucking juniors, fucking seniors, fucking Swedes, fucking C-level arseholes, fucking green dots, fucking idiots, fucking ”woke” ass social media influencers, fucking posers - Fuck You All!5 -
Recently in Instagram followed a tag #coding and #programming.
I get shitty post unrelated to #coding and #programming are you getting that stuff as well?
And why am I getting provocative pictures of lady coders?12 -
GOD why am I CONTINUALLY RESUBSCRIBED to garbo random newsletters!
we need to start a new internet altogether
and I know what's happening, these idiotic "tech influencers" pay some shady service to "bOosT YoUr FoLloWiNg bY 100X!!!" and they're blatantly just breaking the law, breaking GDPR, etc. etc., its bots all the way down, cant wait for clowns with 2 braincells to use a chatGPT integration with the web, content will just get SO much better fuck7 -
Astounded and impressed by the congenial behavior of some open source contributors who have grown into household names. I'm referring to tomas votruba and Sebastian bergmann. It's almost as if they belong in another world, judging by my experience with other developers and big people in general
They aren't social media influencers but Sebastian has almost singlehandedly maintained phpunit since the early 2000s. I tend to expect them not to dignify me with a response when I engage. Tomas "disappointed" that expectation on 2 different platforms where I use different monikers, in a very jovial manner, showing that's just who he is
Sebastian sympathised and apologised to me (an obscure nobody he owes nothing), this morning within minutes of me calling him out for publishing a major update that removed some helpful utilities without explanation or providing alternatives. The humility not to lock the thread or block me like one of the php sub mods did is examplary
Even from my current standpoint, it's easy to look down on those who have not contributed as much I have to the language or acquired as much, so it's a lesson I hope to carry with me, emulating the non technical attributes of these model citizens3 -
Ugh, don't even get me started on the state of modern communication! It's like we're living in a world where everyone's attention span has been replaced by a goldfish. I mean, seriously, have you noticed how people can't seem to put down their phones for more than two seconds? It's like we're all addicted to this constant stream of mindless information, and it's driving me insane!
And don't even get me started on social media. It's a breeding ground for narcissism and superficiality. Everyone's so busy curating their perfect online personas that they've completely lost touch with reality. Likes, shares, and comments have become the currency of self-worth, and it's just pathetic.
And don't get me started on influencers. What exactly are they influencing, anyway? A generation of kids who think the height of success is being Insta-famous for doing absolutely nothing? It's a joke! We're valuing the wrong things in society, and it's messing with our priorities.
And let's talk about the sheer amount of misinformation out there. It's like we're drowning in a sea of fake news and alternative facts. Critical thinking seems to be a rare commodity these days, and people are just swallowing whatever narrative fits their preconceived notions. It's infuriating!
Oh, and let's not forget the endless stream of notifications. I miss the days when you could go for a walk without being bombarded by a constant barrage of beeps and vibrations. Can't we just have some peace and quiet for once?
I swear, if I have to endure another conversation where someone is more interested in their phone than what I'm saying, I'm going to lose it. We're losing touch with the real, meaningful connections that make life worthwhile, all in the name of technological progress. It's time for a reality check, people!random influencermadness notificationoverload techrealitycheck socialmediawoes fakenewsfrustration moderncommunication14 -
There needs to be some sort of enforcement about who can write code. JK,
but seriously, the current dev wannabes and influencers on sh-t-witter and linkedin are literal cancer.
A dude will make a post about how to "scale" a system, yet they have no grasp of the most basic fundamentals. They have no idea what a CDN is, they think you can just store blobs and be done with it. Like, bro, are you going to be serving a 10MB image from the DB every single time it's requested? How WILL that scale? How will low bandwith users be served? Oh, yeah right, I forgot that everyone in the world has 1Gbps internet from NASA.
They think serverless will take care of it.
BUT HOW? No wonder "serverless" companies like Vercel are making bank out of idiots who can't manage to spin up a decent VPS that would take care of 99% of usecases.
Granted, most copy paste regurgitated AI slop from chatgpt but still.
It's so infuriating. There used to be a decent Twitter dev community, but not it's just AI shills, crypto bros and script kiddies all pretending to write code.
It's time I stopped using that site.
Also probably a sign I should quit this industry. Getting tired of it to be honest.
Don't see myself still writing code in 3 years.6 -
I’ve been bashing my head against a project for the past 8 weeks. The project creates a PDF pulling data from multiple APIs, scrapes and private DBs and plots charts using Plotly. We built it with Python, wkhtmltopdf and Celery+Redis. The input is an excel with a list of up to 5 influencers to analyse and compare. Runs on demand on a Linux machine and each report takes around 20 mins to generate. The project has no unittests so the only way I can check everything works is by running a bunch of different inputs. Even though you test 10 inputs (taking you more than a day), there is a high chance something goes wrong on the 11th input. I’m thinking that the only way to fix this mess is to go back to the drawing board and plan yet another refactoring to add unittests everywhere. What do you guys think?23

My most recent dream:
I come to the bookstore and see the 1000-something pages book called "We are not cucks". It's about how stoicism and how to defeat biases with thought experiments. The author is a German guy named ?.?.????rreize, I can't remember it precisely.
Everyone on the internet is discussing this book and why it is important. There are hashtags, influencers and virality.
Some time later the other book is released, 2500-something pages fundamental stuff called "We are cucks" with criticism of "We are not cucks" and whole new theory about why biases can't be defeated because of some "layers" IIRC. -
Does anyone interact with posts by linkedin "influencers" or recruiters that isn't an "influencer" or recruiter themselve?
Do people exist that actually use linkedin as a social media site?5 -
I just got scammed in web3. Again. Luckily by following an extremely strict risk management i lost $25.
But apparently now i have to be even more strict and be rigorous to the extremes.
"Pay me up front payment and ill start" Fuck you. Fuck all of you requesting for an upfront payment.
Do you think in the real world when you get hired at ANY job, do you think you're paid up front even a fucking dime? NO. You start working and get paid 1 whole ass Fucking month LATER. But only in web3 do these shitholes ask for an "uP fRoNt pAyMenT s0 i cAn StaRt wOrkiNg". No. Fuck you. I hope you get a fucking cancer and choke on a dead ape's dick.
How Fucking PATHETIC does your poor miserable waste of life have to be to scam someone for just $25? What the fuck?
Web3 is FULL, actually full is a compliment so I'll say it this way: Web3 is OVERLOADED AND OVERFILLED WITH FUCKING SCAMMERS. They're dripping EVERYWHERE. DMs. Discord. Twitter. Fake profiles. Fake messages. Fake cloned websites. Fake scam influencers. Fake marketers. Fake collab managers. Lies deception and exaggeration of results. Or even if it's the original collection, it's probably still a scam.
I don't know what to fucking do no more.
OH have i mentioned Web3 influencers? Oh my fucking god. These influencers on twitter for web3 are the most narcissistic, egocentric, arrogant, RUDE and EXTREMELY disrespectful as fucking pricks they are. I can not lead a normal conversation with ANY of them without them offending me because i dont want to give them my hard earned money right away. Fuck you. FUCK YOU. I HOPE YOUR WHOLE FAMILY DIES IN CAR CRASH FUCKING LOSERS.
Instead of focusing on building in web3 and developing software im now stressing 90% of the time about potential scammers and focus on being careful not to get scammed......
The amount of TOXICITY in Web3 is EXTREME. This is so Fucking ANNOYING and mentally EXHAUSTING21 -
god... fuckkkkk me, is this really what people think will make them money? these are really udemy's "opportunity"??? classes???? more like "death"
https://udemy.com/instructor/...
rest assured, we are safe as devs, don't listen to what the iNfLuEnCeRs say
i imagine the old start up bros attempting to get the software development they need just by prompting 😂😂😂😂😂😂
"chatGPT - ship this app to the store! google AND apple!!!!!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
they, like most clueless boomers and people who don't know shit, are totally lost for what the future holds. have fun.
in their benefit, at least they'll be ignorantly blissfully happy as they are spoonfed AI generated content to make themselves feel beter and important
meanwhile, the knowledgable and bitter devs will drink themselves to death in depression
god i fucking hate the internet

The leader in a dev team should be the BEST DEVELOPER
Not the one with "leadership" or "strong ownership" skills and "team player" or "go getter" attitudes. This is euphemism for promoting someone just because you like them, or because of their charisma.
There are many other industries where charisma can play a role in leadership but software is not one of them. To build good software we need to be objective thinkers, not influencers.15 -
Summer is getting close, so you see highly stilished people running around taking pictures of themselves.
Are they wannabe influencers or applying to work at a high class escort service?5 -
I see that most of you hate influencers in Tech, so I created a comedy skit about it, and featured Theo in it.

Hi there! So I am one of these guys who started learning coding, applied for a couple of jobs and didn`t succeed in it, almost a year doing nothing, but I am kinda happy with it. Wanna jump again on coding, thinking about to start learning python, started from scraping (web scraping, reading blogs&articles from big websites like https://www.dataquest.io/ https://www.scrapingbee.com/ https://finddatalab.com/ they help me a lot, and of course youtube is even better I think cause of visualisation. Wanted to ask - what people/articles/blogs you read/listen/view ? Can you give a short characteristics for some famous influencers in this area, like who can give better explanation of exact therms etc. ? I`d bery thankful!

RECOVER YOUR STOLEN CRYPTO: EXPERT SOLUTIONS FOR FAST ASSET RECOVERY WITH THE ASSIST FROM SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL
I don’t even know where to start, but I feel like I have to share my experience, hoping it will save someone else from making the same mistake I did. A few months ago, I decided to take a big risk and invested my life savings into a platform that promised security, growth, and lucrative returns. Everything seemed perfect at first great user interface, glowing reviews, and even positive recommendations from influencers. My plan was to use the profits to finally make my dream trip to Dubai—a place I’ve always wanted to visit, and I thought the money would give me the freedom to live a better life. But when I tried to make a withdrawal for the first time, everything went downhill. I logged into my account and was suddenly locked out. I tried to reset my password, but nothing worked. I reached out to customer support, but my emails and messages were ignored. It felt like my account had just vanished. As the hours turned into days, I started to panic. The more I thought about it, the more I realized I had trusted this platform with everything. It wasn’t just my savings—it was the chance to finally make my dream a reality. And now, it felt like it was slipping away. I was feeling desperate, helpless, and heartbroken. The worst part? I thought I had lost it all. The platform had promised security, but instead, I was left with nothing. I was furious, devastated, and questioning everything. The idea of never being able to visit Dubai, or even get my money back, was unbearable. But then, through a random post on Reddit, I discovered SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL. Initially, I thought it was just another scam, but after reading about their success stories, I decided to give it a try. I reached out to them on WhatsApp:+1 (971) 4 8 7 -3 5 3 8 OR Telegram:+1 (581) 2 8 6 - 8 0 9 2 , and within days, they began working on my case. To my relief, SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL saved me from financial ruin. They expertly navigated the platform's systems, and after some time, I was finally able to regain access to my account and withdraw my funds. The feeling of relief was indescribable I was finally able to move forward with my plans, including booking my trip to Dubai.
I work at a wine packing company in Atlanta called Okanagan Valley Wines, and losing that money felt like losing my entire future. If you're facing a similar situation, don’t give up hope. Research trusted recovery services like SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL and protect your hard-earned money.

DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY: THE GO-TO CRYPTO RECOVERY SOLUTION FOR INVESTORS
As a PR Specialist in Illinois, I was recently involved in a project that required collaborating with an influencer to promote a client's brand. To ensure the success of the campaign, we decided to partner with a popular influencer who seemed to have a substantial online following. However, things took a turn for the worse when it became apparent that we had fallen victim to a scam. The influencer we paid $1,800 to promote the brand turned out to be fake, with no genuine engagement or interest from their followers. After making the payment, the influencer became unresponsive and failed to deliver any content as agreed. Upon further investigation, I discovered that the influencer’s profiles and engagement numbers were artificially inflated, and there was no real influence on their audience. It was a classic case of fraud, and the funds we had invested seemed completely lost. Given the amount of money involved and the impact it could have on our reputation, I needed a solution fast. That’s when I turned to DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY for help. DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY specializes in tracking online fraud,

identifying perpetrators, and helping victims recover lost funds. Their team was able to quickly identify the fraudster by analyzing the influencer's online presence and tracking the payment transaction. They discovered that the influencer was using a fake platform, which had been set up to deceive brands like mine. DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY worked tirelessly to contact the influencer’s platform and initiate a recovery process. They leveraged their expertise to build a case and worked directly with the platform’s support team to prove that the transaction was fraudulent. After a few weeks of coordination and investigation, DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY was able to recover $1,400 of the original payment. While we didn’t get the full amount back, I was incredibly relieved to get a portion of the funds returned, especially given how difficult it seemed to get any resolution. Thanks to DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY’s persistence and knowledge, we were able to regain some of the money lost in the scam. They provided detailed support throughout the process, keeping me informed every step of the way. Without their expertise, I would have likely never been able to recover any funds. This experience served as a valuable lesson in the importance of thoroughly vetting influencers and agencies before making financial commitments. I'm grateful for the help of DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY and would highly recommend their services to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation.1 -
HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY RECOVER SCAMMED BTC AND ETH WITH THE HELP OF SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY
A clip titled “Joe Rogan Reveals Secret Ethereum Fork” autopay on YouTube, featuring Rogan’s unmistakable voice praising a supposed “ETH 2.0 upgrade” that promised early investors up to 10x returns. Everything about the video seemed authentic, Rogan's casual tone, the familiar podcast studio, and even commentary from a so-called “blockchain expert.” Skeptical but curious, I clicked the link in the video’s description, which led to a sleek, professional-looking website promoting a limited-time ETH fork token presale. The sense of urgency was palpable. The site displayed endorsements from prominent crypto influencers I already followed, blockchain analytics claiming legitimacy, and a countdown timer steadily ticking toward zero. My fear of missing out overrode my usual caution. Convinced I was getting in on something exclusive, I transferred 50 ETH worth nearly $150,000 at the time to the provided wallet address. In return, I received newly minted “ETH2” tokens. For the next 48 hours, I celebrated what I believed was a smart, early-access investment. Then it all unraveled. The ETH2 tokens suddenly plummeted to zero value. The website vanished without a trace. Soon after, the YouTube video was flagged and removed; it had been a deepfake. Panic set in. I immediately reached out to SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY, a cryptocurrency forensics firm I’d seen mentioned in security forums. Within hours, their team began tracing the scam. They explained the mechanics: the scammers used a “rug pull” strategy. A convincing deepfake drew in victims, fake tokens were issued, and the moment investments peaked, the thieves drained all liquidity. Using on-chain analysis, SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY identified the scammers’ wallet addresses and tracked the flow of my ETH through various exchanges. They worked quickly with centralized platforms to freeze the stolen assets, leveraging anti-money laundering protocols. They also filed emergency legal requests, backed by blockchain evidence, to prove the funds were mine. After three tense weeks, they recovered 47.5 ETH, a 95% success rate. The remaining 2.5 ETH had been funneled to anonymous wallets and was unrecoverable. This taught me hard lessons. Deep Fakes are terrifyingly convincing. Urgency is a red flag. And in crypto, acting quickly after a scam is crucial. Now, I double-check everything and I share my story to protect others. Crypto is powerful, but so are its predators. If scammed, don’t give up. With experts like SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY, recovery is possible.

You ever try to get some cool dev swag? Stickers, t-shirts, maybe a notebook that makes you feel like a real hacker while you’re just writing TODO lists? Yeah, good luck.
First, you gotta jump through a thousand hoops. "Complete this 5-hour coding challenge!" "Sign up for our newsletter, then confirm via email, then sacrifice a goat under the next full moon!" And the worst part? Some of these companies ghost you harder than a bad Tinder date.
Google Cloud Arcade? Completed 10 challenges. No swag.
Hacktoberfest? Contributed to open-source. Shirt never arrived.
Random Twitter giveaway? Retweeted, liked, followed, tagged three friends. Crickets.
But the moment you don’t want swag? BAM—your mailbox is drowning in random recruiter postcards from companies you've never heard of.
And let’s talk about those "exclusive" ambassador programs. They dangle swag in front of you like a carrot, but guess what? The only people who get in are LinkedIn influencers who say "🚀 Keep learning! Stay hungry! Stay foolish!" 50 times a day.
At this point, I’d rather just pay $5 for a sticker pack than deal with all this nonsense. But no, these companies make it seem like getting a free T-shirt is harder than getting a job at FAANG.
Just give me my damn stickers!1 -
