The shortest rant ever that doesn't need any explanation: XCODE

Who wants to build with me the European search engine?

- Rust or Go for high-performance crawling
- LLM (Mistral / Mixtral / Zephyr) for reasoning and answering
- Vector DB (Qdrant / Weaviate) for semantic memory
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) instead of classic indexing
- Postgres / SQLite / S3 for smart buffer storage
- LLM-powered garbage filter (kill SEO sludge)
- Nightly retraining & hot-swappable models
- Minimalist frontend (SvelteKit or Next.js)
- No chatbot behavior. No endless replies. Just answers.

You might need a woman for the frontend guys

This is a social experiment! Do you support universal base income?

How are you declaring your arae's? 🫣🤣💀 Guess the accent :D

I got a task to create an emulator which can connect to the PLC and literally make it possible for the PLC devs to develop their code way before the machine is built. Half of them completely refused the idea to use plc db values instead of the raw inputs so I can actually read and write as well.
All that refused are the 45+ guys.
The reasons:
~ You keep your little code on your computer.
~ I won't reference something twice
~ I never use DB's values as inputs
~ I am always working from paper sketch
~ We just do approximately and the commission guys will align.
~ This is waste of time.

ChatGPT went total crazy on my idea.

I got an offer to be part of an asset management team in a position of "maintenance and reliability engineer" although I would be the IT/Infra/Network responsible. Basically chasing the integrator, and checking if they do their job according to expectations that the company currently doesn't have (🫣). I decided to let you guys decide.

I have to say thanks to all of you for keeping out politics from this platform. This is my safe island from that stuff, wherever I go on the internet is littered with that stuff and I'm extremely tired of it. Thanks guys once again and keep this place clean.

I have to spend 3 hours in the morning to do a safety e-learning, afternoon will be the practical part from 13:30 til 17:00. I work til 14:30 usually, so I guess Im looking forward to a productive day.

There are sites that list different datasets, this makes them dataset of datasets.
As there are multiple of these sites, and they are listed on Google, that made Google dataset of dataset datasets.

"Can you build a work schedule planner windows application for us? We want to import jobs from excel, automatically schedule them by about 10 rules, generate a year calendar with them and also an export as excel for another tool to import it.
We would have to use it on Friday" - Wednesday morning meeting

Officially banned from 3 social networks. Reddit, Facebook, X.
I don't really mind but
I might need a neural link to moderate my thoughts before letting people know how idiotic their posts are.

I have to open an IT ticket to install a printer driver. I don't know if the IT security BS can get even lower. These are the end of times

I am quitting my job because I work in a snob silent quiet office with normies and boring people.

Something I learnt over the years is that it doesn't matter how fast your PC or Server is, people will produce a piece of software that will be capable of running slow on it.

2024 - At Microsoft its still not clear for the people that who is using Visual Studio might want to create an installer for the application he's building.

Why would people want an installer, what a crazy thought to have it in the ide primarily used for building applications.

Crowdstrike event caused a disaster at my company.
No, we didn't had a single crash, but something much worse has happened. My tech lead who lives in early 90's got his confirmation that we shall run with 0 internet, everything on premise, no source control, no external libraries only the absolute must that doesn't need ever any update. Finally we started to show him how powerful an azure pipeline would be, but after this, there's no hope.

Ended up fixing a Visual Basic backend of an internal website.Without a version management in 2024.
I feel I work in the 2000s

They told me " you can find the backup on the PC"

I hope this is not illegal content, as I don't want to "Advertise" here but would like to share my first game on Steam with the community, as I am really proud of it.
There's a free playtest soon and dev opinions are much appreciated! Let me know guys what you think. https://store.steampowered.com/app/...

Random number calling me:
"Hey, you have applied to us for a job"
Me processing the 150 job applications in my brain.

Shall I stay with my current company without a project and get paid for occasional travel and doing bs, or accept the Automation job near by?

I am the nightmare of the recruiters. They're reaching out to me and I am giving them back every experience I received while I was a junior.
I'm arrogant, not responding, gaslighting, shaming, slow responding, sometimes I build up hope for them and just stop communicating with them.
I am a bit sorry but at the same time it feels extremely satisfying and I feel revenge.

Where do you guys follow the news regarding your current language? Is there some good place other than the official stuff? I mean I do C# but I don't feel like reading the Microsoft website... It's just seems so off and unnatural to read :D

Fell in love with electron.

I feel a shame when as a developer I don't understand when the infrastructure team is discussing about the clusterfuck of the infrastructure we have.

Why is it so frustrating experience to add simple websocket client to Unity? It should have been so core basic library.
