Was replacing the water bottle at the water cooler. Thought it would be funny to make a cartoon about it being an office workout routine. Generated this image, but realized it could make a funny coding meme instead.

The latest and greatest bullshit at the workplace: when you're asked to be an 'ambassador'. This really just translates to: 'take on more work for free'.

Whenever management approaches you with 'honorable extra role', immediately ask how it's compensated and definitely don't do it for no extra benefits (a raise should be default).

Don't fall into the trap.

Friday afternoon.
Boss: “Can we push this small fix before the weekend? It’s just a button color.”
Me: “Sure, what could possibly go wrong?”

Fast forward 20 minutes:

Whole CSS is missing
Login page is blank
Server panicked so hard it restarted itself
I’m now "that guy" who deploys on Friday

Moral of the story:
No fix is truly “small” on a Friday. :(

I fucking hate Figma.

It's primary use case is designing web applications, yet all of its naming conventions are based on SVG.

So you have to fight with designers trying to shoehorn SVG naming conventions into design tokens.

"Stroke" is border. Every time I see this I feel like I'm having a stroke.

"Drop-shadow" is box-shadow. This one really pisses me off because the properties you set for drop shadows are not valid drop shadow filters unless by some miracle the designer didn't discover the spread property. I suppose this doesn't matter because 99% of the time the code will apply a box-shadow anyway.

"Effects". FFS.

They say 90% of code will be generated by AI.
I say 90% of code is already copy paste from old projects or the internet. 😂

Current job is making me hate developing software. Am I cooked?

And now, to nobody surprise, time to work again with Angular; all fun and games, until observables join the party.

RXJS IS RETARDED

I've bought a new laptop. It comes with windows 11. Looks like I'm installing Linux.

And so it happened.
My company installed app-operated locks in the office.
Today the internet went down during the night and nobody could get in to even get their laptops to work from home :))))
Brilliant move and there's certainly not been anybody who could have predicted that.

If you ever decide to become a manager, I hope every time you sit down, your chair makes a farting sound, but just once, so you can’t repeat it to demonstrate that it was in fact your chair and not yourself.

save him ...

I’m now preparing to switch jobs.
I hate interviews so much. Time to grind puzzles that I’ll never use in my real work.

its time to fun

Accidentally connected to the wrong db to wipe it.

44 years after Unix, Windows gets sudo. I'm proud of the little guy. He's starting to grow up!

Saw this and thought some of you might find it funny.
That's it, see ya'.
