Everybody keeps trying to get me to use cursor or GitHub copilot or some other LLM co-programmer that will shit all over my code

the stress of I don't want to lose git history by renaming whitelist allowlist in existing code but i also don't want to get in trouble from people if they catch me using whitelist for new additions to match what's already in the file

Is it true that in MNC company product based or service based, there are more meetings than the work itself?

I have an interview on Sunday and I keep procrastinating like an idiot.

Fascinating. Did you know people with multiple personality disorder could rape themselves?

I wonder whether this has gotten here yet but it knocked me out. I don't write in trap English but I'm a sucker for memes. Imagine how bored he must have been to start documenting legacy code without the urge to refactor. Just "vibing"

hold alt, and press num pad 3 uwu

/me experimenting with streaming my music on peertube

/me find there's some weird echos on the stream

/me stop the music, the last part repeats on an on as if there was a delay

/me start troubleshooting. Is there a delay in the daw? no. Is it something to do with alsa or jack? no. Is it peertube? it should be peertube right? I try with youtube, there is still a delay even though it's not that bad.

so i ask the admin like an idiot. Turns out I had the tabs opened twice.

Anyway im mixin my music here

At my new job I'm allowed to goof around more while at the same time less. Im no longer limited to tech and can just choose the best tool for the job and fuck around trying out new interesting stuff that might work. But at the same time IF I FUCK UP, you will definetly read about it in the news!

i am shitting rn. in 15 minutes i have a daily meeting. will i make it on time? we'll see! will update you in the comments!

Guys theoretically could one basejump from a trebuchet?

It was at this moment NoToJavaScript understood,, he fucked up by updating a perfectlly working Linux server.

Appointments appointments appointments meetings meetings appointments suffering meetings meetings AAAAAAAAAAA I DON WANNAAAAA

Good sleep saves the day again

I work with idiots.

That is all.

We have in our company an 8 GB Ram Intel MacBook Pro that they give to any new Mobile developers and is always returned bc the ram is not enough.

You’d have thought they understood after 3 years. But I just found out they still do it lol.

I hate bash scripting so much !
What a shit language, its inconsistent af
Its just a pile of hacks upon hacks upon hacks. Theres no rime or reason to bash expansion, or to working with arrays.
Sometimes "$@" is a list, sometimes its not... Because fuck u thats why

So im doing a coding project at work, that has to be in bash for reasons.
It already feels like giving birth, llms are hard-carrying me and im not proud of it

And every time i think im done, and i can close this fucking epic, some issue pops up that necessitates a re-write
3rd one is also a no go apparently

And this all happened because *someone* in another department couldn't be fucked to implement the proper solution for this.
The scope of this piece of shit script keeps growing, because every month they be like

"oh this feature of service xyz ? Nah turns out we cant do that sowwy. But you can implement a workaround in bash right??

If you truly like bash as a language, you're cooked brother. you need to seek professional help :skull:

I'm getting up in 6h then I'll have to work on that shit codebase on problems I don't give a fuck about again.

fml, why can't I just code my stuff alone ?

Had a dream that I remapped Copy to Command and Paste to Option, and it started a new vim-vs-emacs type war.

Enjoy! 😉

Mind Blown...

So I was in a meeting with another dev talking to a customer. He instructed the customer to open a command prompt in Windows. Then to use the SSH command. In my mind I was assuming he had told the client to install SSH beforehand. Later I started thinking about it and did a search. Apparently Windows 10/11 have a version of OpenSSH installed by default. I had used Windows 7 in the past and always installed git shell to get this. So in my Windows 10 I did the same thing. git shell also supports aliases and other nice *nix like scripting features. So it is always a win.

So hear I am realizing SSH is installed by default on newer windows systems. Like damn, I never thought I would see the day. I think I still prefer git shell, but having SSH by default is nice to know. I know they got the subsystem shit to get Linux. But not everyone wants or needs that.

I probably should learn what is in Windows these days. lol. I mean, besides malware.

Android studio gradle nightmares, cli not picking active jdk, intellij maven horrorshow, vscode being the nexus of perdition itself. When I'm dead and gone, scatter my ashes over sublime text. NEVER encountered a headache, ever. The setting for autosave is one forum visit away. 1000s of utilities at my fingertips, with shortcuts, not silly plugins. Neither hangs nor fusses irrespective of how many windows, projects, tabs I've got open. Gargantuan code real estate despite having a file panel and file preview. The only guys who got monokai right. Can open random editors and fill them with notes without first saving. A more intuitive vcs gui than even github desktop. More lightweight to download than an beep.ogg. Never lags cuz it wants to be powered by a wind turbine. It's free. Literally all the sorrows that terrorise my dev in its peers, all gone

Yes, it's not "integrated" to my de, in the sense that its intellisense is a glorified autocomplete for existing tokens. I guess, tradeoffs must be made. If you know the language well enough not to grope handheld by the ide, or in dynamic typed languages where red, squiggly lines will not bring your software down to its knees, it should be head and shoulders above those conartistes

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.

Oh, I found the old Minecraft-world that I had together with a few ones from Devrant

ANGRY-CLIENT still here? :D

what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck

Overall worst part of being a Software Dev? Really, really loving it. How could that be a bad thing you ask? Because people, in general, in life, do not want you to code. Managers, family, kids, colleagues, they all want your attention, they all want to yap at you, they all abhor seeing you concentrate at a screen. In short, they just can't leave you the fuck alone to do what you trained yourself so hard for. Best one of all is being hauled up on a daily basis for an hour to answer "How can we go faster!?" IDK maybe just let me do my thing? So fucking frustrating. If you don't recognise this and have all the time in the world, feel blessed, for you are free.

im trying to cut down on my digital ocean bill and have a few small freelance websites, im paying 15$ a month for a mysql db and kinda feel ripped off

i know mongodb atlas offers mongo for free, does any service offer mysql for free and would you recommend using it for a clients website?

Has anyone else started a new job with the promise of interesting work, just to end up spending all their time writing e2e tests for crap code written 5 years ago by a contractor who clearly couldn't give 2 shits?

Got a child. Little under a year old.
We go to a little baby group nearby. We visit it from time to time. Just like 6 different babies there.

One baby has brown eyes. Mommy and daddy have blue eyes. Oh...

Next baby is blonde. Mommy is blonde. Daddy is blonde. Someone commented, that blonde was very likely with mommy and daddy. She said, no, her mother-in-law is black haired. She proves it by saying, her oldest son has black hair.... Oh....

Out of 6 parents pairs, we had 2 cheating. 1/3. And for the other 4, well, we only ever met the mother and they have not told us anything about their husbands.

This leads me to only one conclusion: People are terrible in high school level genetics. I know, it is not 100% correct, there are special cases and exceptions. But it it 99% correct.

To quote Rex Harrison: "This is what the British population calls an elementary education."

Oh china... just when I was so exhausted and annoyed at you... cuz i got behind and had to grind purchase/logistics/china-rel bs, to get necessities complete before your 2wks being MIA for chinese new year.

BUT THEN...

You had brought me this comedic gold in the midst of my sourcing woes!

Whoever points out my favourite 'precaution' first, wins.

...it's very rare that I say this, especially with my linguistics and algorithmic knowledge and exp making me easily peeved here...

But seriously, even Google trans with 0 knowledge of english, wouldve done better on most of these.
