I HATE PHP.

I hate it with all my guts.
It's weirdly cobbled together, nothing fits for anything, it's a NON PROFESSIONAL TOOL. AT. ALL. PLEASE STOP DOIN' STUFF WITH IT AND REWRITE YOUR STACK IN COBOL/BRAINF**K.

I HATE IT.

If you find a programmer that uses getters() and setters() without any complex logic inside them, you should burn him/her/whatev with the strength of a thousand suns.

If I find the genius who thought using getters and setters everywhere was a good idea, i'll gladly throw him into an active volcano.

Problem: ugly-ass php spaghetti code that has a technical debt of 16(!!!) years. I mean, it's so spaghetti that has two legacy frameworks that talk to each other inside the same monolith.

Observation: after two months my colleagues, trying to refactoring stuff, they were able to touch so little stuff that it almost made no difference.

How much is worth a rewrite? Because i don't think i can make a difference on a codebase so messy.
I know that rewrite is not the answer 99.9999% of the time, but i have tons of doubts here.

It's ok to deal with PHP.
It's (kinda of) ok to make new stuff with It.
Stop pretending that it's not broken.

(I know php8 blah blah, but let's face it, without a good framework it's unmanteinable)

I dunno, i'm just frustrated by the low salary that PHP give to me.

"Ok that's our standard"
...
"And those are our semi-standards"

OH FU-

OOP is literally the worst that happened in programming history.

Never trust somewone who calls him/her/theyself "Agile Scrum Master".

I hate office.
Please give me back remote working.

About bad companies and bad tech decisions.

Old $JOB: "You know, we are going to implement our own UI in Angular"

Me: "Maybe we can use something pre-made and then customize the colors..."

Old $JOB: "Shut up you always want to do the things in your own way"

Two years later: UI is unfinished, i quitted the job.

Two years and one month later: Sparkbox proved that using pre-made components cuts the hassle in half: https://sparkbox.com/foundry/...

Those companies who NEVER listen to people who wants to try the right thing DESERVE TO FAIL.

Last day at $JOB.

I rickrolled the entire company.

GG

Companies, please, hire people that like simple solutions.

I need an idea for a JS coding challenge for a job interview that a poor unlucky person is going to take after me, 'cause i'm leaving..

Requirements: it must be simple, but not simple enough for my other two colleagues. Aka no webpack, no framework, plain js inside a webpage.

My other two colleagues don't even know how to do an array.forEach() or literally how to code in general. They are copy-pastah programmers.

How can i do that without offending anyone?

8 days and i'm never gonna touch Javascript, CSS, Angular and anything frontend-related for the rest of my life.

I cannot be happier.

I hate when programmers never want to go out their comfort zone. They should be relegated into a hell spinned inside a Virtualbox instance.

I have this *** angular setup. We want to try to keep the dev environment congruent between all the colleagues.

The decent programmer would use a node version manager, or try to keep up with everything. LOLNOPE THEY FUCKIN' SPUN A FRIGGIN' VAGRANT VIRTUAL MACHINE RUNNED WITH ADMIN PERMISSIONS which is slowing everyone down. A single "npm i" now requires half an hour.

I tried to use YARN that is faster and makes a mergeable lock, NOPE WE SHOULD KEEP USING THAT STUPID NPM INSTALL that is slow AF and sometimes messes up the versions.

I tried to make 'em use the peerDependencies correctly but LOLNOPE WE SHOULD RELY ONTO THE AUTOMATIC PEERDEP RESOLVER INSIDE NPM7, SO YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOUR VERY SAME LIBRARY IS INCLUDED OR NOT.

Thank god i'm changing job.
