I squatted with progressive weights starting from just the bar itself. 5x5. Now I can't fucking walk. Stairs are now scary. Please send help.

I can’t feel anything
it hurts.

Do they forbid music at your office? They do at mine. It's always like a weird atmosphere until the loud people come in. lol. Not a sound, not a peep. If you didn't look around, it's as if people weren't there.

Seriously. It's a bad idea to have music?! I understand that from a concentration perspective, but come on. Let's make business even more boring. lol.

On the other hand, I did work at a place where they had radio playing but they never changed station. It felt like Groundhog day. lmao.

I just found out there are men who wear their dick upside down, isn’t ur dick suppose to be curved under your balls unless you have an erection?

Jesus I need a real internet connection

Fuck you give me job

Vibe coding should be punished of 7 years in jail and a 10000€ fine. Doing so while screen sharing should add 2 years and 5000€ on top.

Mother-in-law was visiting this morning (love her, lovely woman) and being a good son-in-law, I set out/up the coffee maker before leaving for work (I knew she'll want coffee).

About an hour I get a text message from my wife.

W: "Mom is here and wants some coffee. How do I make coffee in that thing on the countertop?"
<It's a Keurig>
Me: "First, press the power button to get the water up to the brewing temperature."
W: "I know that, I'm not stupid. Where is the power button?"
Me: "The top row of buttons, the first button, it looks just like the power button on the remote control."
W: "Got it. Now what? Its not working"
Me: "You need to wait until it's done warming up. Takes about 30 seconds."
W: "Is it supposed to make that sound? Something is wrong."
Me: "No, its normal. Be patient."
W: "No, something is wrong. Its not supposed to be that loud."
Me: "Sounds like a jet engine taking off, yes, been using it for almost 10 years, this isn't new."
W: "Stop being mean. Never mind. It stopped. What now?"
Me: "Put the pod in the little basket, pull down the handle, and press the second button from the top."
W: "Not working"
Me: "Did you pull the handle all the way down, so it locks?"
W: "Still not working. Now what?"
Me: "Weird. Send me a picture, I can't see what you see."
W: "Never mind, its working now. This would have gone a lot faster if you told me what to do from the start."

My prayer today is thanking Jesus for patience. Amen.

I hate what AI has done to developers, man.

I was discussing something a couple of days ago while my colleague was sharing his screen. He (Android/Flutter developer asked for my help for something custom in the iOS build) And while we were discussing it, he went to ChatGPT.

He wrote a bad prompt using wrong terms (for example how tabbar in ios is a different thing than android), i told him he was wrong and what the solution is, he didn't listen and went to try out what the AI said, made a bunch of errors, the proceeded to copy the errors to chatgpt wasting so much time.

AI to some developers is like tiktok to kids.

I find it strange. How can employers expect 8 hours of work a day out of you? I mostly get about 4 hours done, 5 if I'm top productive.

reverse cowgirl is the most dangerous sex position by number of penis fractures.

Whoever came up with the "brilliant" idea of having different date formats should be punched in their face! Stop inventing all sorts of idiotic local standards for every little freaking thing! This goes for Americans and Europeans alike! FFS! Why can't everybody just agree on using yyyy-MM-dd, the only correct and sensible date format?! Sweden is the only country that I know has got it right.

Only accepted if at least 50% of your code is AI generated / vibe coded. Imagine, they're even asking for it.

But that's very interesting. There is not a decent vibe coding tool in the market imho.

So, where the fuck do all those people that coding in? Just with copilot or so?

Afaik - real vibe coding is just not possible. Those people who say they generated games with vibe coding are actually just programmers tweaking a lot.

I have to say, there is quite some to learn about vibe coding (using my own tool) but to call it really a skill... It's stuff that is learned very fast. So especially asking for vibe coding experience is just idiotic.

Have a problem? Put it in docker. Now you have two problems.

If you want to know how bad the job market is in India, a colleague told me that he got offered a job from an employer, where the condition is he has to give 20% of his paycheck back to the employer in their other bank account.

Boss was fired.

Just watching a documentary about the tsar bomba. It's interesting but I know it ends badly. The russian pussies didn't blow up new york. Weak ass bitches

I'm half assing my job and my manager thinks micromanaging me is a good solution.

"Any junior engineer could try those things"

Yes. And then need help to make it actually work.

I'm slow because he's an asshole. I'm still better than anyone else.

Fuck him.

In the light of the recent events.....

I've almost made my peace with the fact that I will probably be nicked in the upcoming few years, as well as many others trying to stay free and/or flee countries in conflict. I just hope it won't be too long and agonising.
Thanks to the miracle of the internet, I will still be alive there in a form of online profiles and my posts/rants here. Maybe retoor's dR-trained LLM will be able to mimic me well enough to trick you all I'm still out there :))

just some doom and gloom shower thoughts.. running circles in my head for years now.

today, my whore ex blonde gf wants me to fuck her, but also my new hot brunette gf wants me to fuck her, so I'll have to be prepared and fuck 2 bitches in 1 day. gonna be a tough day but I'll keep you updated how it went! ping me

Angular is a pile of dog shit.

Making web dev unbearable and harder since 2010 (or 2016 if you ignore AngularJS).

Fuck you, Miško Hevery

Turned 31 three days ago.

My **dad** was convinced that I was turning 30 instead lmao.

I had to do the math for him, he was questioning the fabric of reality for a second. Like baba 2025 sub 1994 eq 31, ok.

so anyway age--;

Today I managed to cut myself under my fingernail by grabbing the door handle to my room the wrong way. The world is a dangerous place.

One of the devs was let go after his probation period. Today was his last day. I didn't review a lot of his code, but it seemed to be fine. I'm not sure if his output was just slow.

Either he wasn't working out or the startup decided maybe they shouldn't have hired new people yet. There's been a freeze for a while and this guy started in October. The company's revenue targets keep slipping. Profitability was moved from 2026 to 2027.

We're on a slowly sinking ship.

Every once in a while the volume for my default audio output decides to max out on login. How this can happen is apparently a mystery. Other than its a shitty OS called Windows 11. Windows 10 never did this shit, or if it did it was fixed quickly and never did it again. So there is always a non-zero chance of logging into windows and getting ear raped if you have headphones when playing any audio.

Enter SetVol.exe. Apparently open source and can be run in a batch script. So now I have this kludge of every time I login a task is run to call my bat file to fix this garbage. This is the worst case of quality control I have seen in any supported product. Not a single MS helper in any channel online has had a good fix for this. This is a fundamental design issue in how they handle volume settings. Absolute garbage.

Everyone from ma and pa to audio engineers are screaming about this. How? How does it get this bad?

Every ticket I work on involves some nebulous, undocumented BS nobody can satisfactorily explain. And worse, even if it’s something I’ve already worked with before, it’s almost invariably different from the last time I saw it, so it’s still nebulous BS. It’s like I’m walking through Steven King’s Mist, except the bugs are more metaphorical.

Everything is spec’d out, except for the views, and half of the logic. But the rest is still technically covered because tests indirectly call the code, so that means it won’t crash right? 😅 Also, the tests that are there are also fucking nebulous, such as calling helper methods that are heavily abstracted, or that are written to test completely different things but kinda sorta work for this too if you set things up just right.

I’m going insane.

Day 32 or starving myself to death challenge, but not really — I'm eating today!

When did "9-5" become 8-5, lunch is unpaid?

Ain’t no way doing cocaine feels better than cumming.

I really want this whole industry to die. I want it to happen from the bottom of my soul!

Their whole job ad was about web technologies where they were asking for a 7-10 years Symfony developer.

One would think being a programmer for 10 years should superseed your shitty LLM prompt crafting requirements.

Truly, there never was a better time for global EMP to happen..

can't feel my fingers
