Currently working on my quiet quitting strategy to do the absolute minimum I can this year. Any advices are welcome.

Afrer an excruciating year of work, all I get is a ridiculous pay increase barely covering inflation. I am seriously considering resigning by the beginning of the year and live on benefits.
Even worst : the levelling of my current company is absolutely stupid, which I take as an insult to all the things I do and I can do while others apparently at my level would not even be able to think about. But yeah, I refuse to be a buffoon who spend his time posting useless bullshit on Slack.
Plus my manager is always on my back giving his opinion on absolutely everything, being wrong 90% of the time. I checked yesterday. 1 contribution from this person per month. But always very keen to prevent me from doing my job.
I am so fucking done.

Currently having a stupid fight in my PR comments to remove dead code because I refuse to write a whole book to justify a cleanup commit.

We are in AI era but screen readers and softwares for disabled people are still immensely retarded, so we still have to do accessibility by hand, now enforced by EU.

I’d like to understand. What is the problem with digital identity?

It’s crazy that banks don’t have the technology to provide properly redacted bank statements. Will have to remove the labels of 13 pages of transactions by hand.

Why arguing with each other while we could reunite and hunt those spammers together?

Teams of more than 4 people is already too big, period.

We should build an international anti-scammers brigade to find them and later take them down physically.

I personally don’t mind the wave of “back to the office” as long as transports costs are added to my income and I can start 1h30 later and leave 1h30 earlier.

MacOS and their custom keyboard layout drives me crazy. I will have once again to remap keys.

I wish we could stop to push candidates to do TDD or even asking questions about it during interview. This thing is a lie, has always been and will ever be. It is cool for small coding exercises but nothing else.
Let’s stop gatekeeping with stupid concepts.

Petition to rename this app “engineer therapy”

Fuck antiviruses making your PC so slow that you cannot work. Need to find a way to disable it, fuck security guidelines.

I can’t anymore with those companies hiring unicorns only, reposting the same job offer for 6 months while they could have hired someone more junior and taught them. 1 year my girlfriend is in the “no experience” death loop while she outsmarts me by far.

“The local build is broken, run it with Docker” isn’t a valid answer, period.

The bad thing about high turnover is being forced to remind people constantly that you don’t like physical contact.

Fuck react, fuck nextJS and fuck frontend unit testing, it doesn’t work and will never work.

Dumb tests are a form of intense intellectual masturbation, causing a lot of lost time as a side effect

My kingdom against a work laptop able to handle docker and VS code at the same time.

It takes days to get a review. 3rd notice unanswered. So today it will be merged without review of 5 MRs. We’ll see what breaks in prod anyways.

I am so pissed at all the shit I have to do to publish a simple app on the playstore. Every 2 phrases is a threat to ban my account, and target audience, and privacy policy, all of this for an app that is absolutely not serious. And I am not even started with the Apple Store because I am too broke this month to throw $100.

Fuck Confluence and anyone telling me to write anything there. From now on, documentations will be in the repo, written in Markdown

2 years ago I would have hoped Discord would have started an enterprise version of their software but now it’s bloated with stupid paying gifs animations, activities and other cringe micro-transactions
Problem is there is no alternative of their role-based permissions system, or their open audio channels, or even the audio quality.

3 weeks to make a full mobile application. As a junior. Beat this.

Honestly tired of those "let's put a bit of random AI here" talks. All it does is eat money for pointless features, and with the average trend duration in 2k23 it will not even have the slightest impact.

The next one who tells me “MacBooks are superior” will take mine in the face at a speed no benchmark ever recorded.

The test setup is broken and prevents me from running my test? Fine. I remove the test. Can’t be bothered by this anymore, it’s just a waste of time.

Why don’t we create a worldwide union? We are in every companies, by being coordinated we could obtain anything

If you participated in creating jest I wanna test the colour of the wall after I smashed your face on the it, please contact me.
