AboutI like making things, adding features, fixing things. I've got too many things on the go at once for repetitive, so I'll automate instead.

Yup, no longer on the store. Shutdown in progress I guess. Time to backup all the memories and work on the replacement. It's been fun y'all 🫶1

Sid, I stopped reading after you started talking about my childhood. Do you know what projecting is? Maybe go to therapy. Sounds like you want to talk about your childhood.

I actually like the new devRant update. Now just one big chat room. Like the MSN of old. But also I'm still considered a paid user so I can post more frequently, bitches!

Sudden urge to design my own programming language. Specifically built for concurrency. I really like the async/promise style stuff but I always think it's a pain to put together. Why not make the "putting it together" bit the languages job.15

You are protected by societal norms and social conventions for as long as you abide by them. Be nice, bitches!7

Suing AI firms for piracy is right up there with charging mobsters for tax evasion, but that's the world we've come to.1

The most interesting thing about the GDPR training that we do is that very little of it is about our rights as employees and almost all of it is to protect our employer. Funny that.3

My favourite passtime is asking awkward questions I already know the answer to and seeing how long it takes the person to work out that they fucked up, that I know they fucked up and how monumentally they fucked up.3

Me in an email: "This information was not shared with you for your entertainment, and yet..."
Translation: fuck you, you incompetent bint.6 -
First time I've spent £500 using Google Pay. Tiny bit disconcerting how easy it is. Must remember it's real money.18

Dear employers, DO NOT FUCK WITH A PERSON'S DOCTORS. My doctors are paid to help me. If that means helping to sue your asses, they'll do it in a heart beat. Don't give them motivation.
My employer made dubious claims to my doctors in an occupational health referral. I've requested a copy of the referral. In the hopes I might not get a copy of the referral they've pushed this to my doctors as they don't want to give it to me. Because they've lied. Or they think I won't jump through the hoops to get access to MY OWN MEDICAL RECORDS.9 -
Tech is getting lazier. I think it started with showing you countless ads for things you just bought and now it's not bothering to even give good music reccomendations.
We're the problem.3 -
I think GDPR is a pain in the ass but my employer has lied to my doctors about my medical information so suddenly I really like GDPR.1

To the housemate that wondered into the kitchen at 4am and turned the oven off at the perfect time for the chicken I'd forgotten about, thank you.

Manager: Keep the debug logs
Me: I won't use them as I use the status report or run it manually to see the problem, but fine whatever.
1 week later
Manager: the debug logs are hard to read, the status report is hard to read too but it's a bit more concise
Me: Yes. The fuck you want me to do? I don't use logs and don't care. You can write code, make the logs more useful to you if you want to use them.2 -
Ya know when you're working on a personal project, and you add a feature thinking it's a really good idea, then you don't touch the code for 6 months and it's still a good idea but you've got no idea what's broken and no idea what you need to do next?9

"All due regards".
None. No regards are due. If you didn't work out I thought you lot were assholes from the body of the email, you're not going to work it out from the sign off, but still. You've got the social skills of a toothbrush.
I'd love to play poker with these people though. Can't bluff for shit. -
Every year my work sends out a "mental health awareness week" email including some "useful resources" and the biggest problem for my mental health is those assholes.9
