						but you can run it and manually test that it works
 
 right? right?
 
 heh

						is that normal or not?

						@D-4got10-01 not to be racist... but first time meeting an Indian?
 
 tbh even white people are acting like this now. this contributes to my depression

						at least they direct you instead of ignore you though

						you left his hotel room twice and for some reason you flew home even tho he flew to you

						I glide and barely touch
 
 had to kind of relearn to type when I got a mechanical keyboard. then I got a laptop and forgot how to use mechanical keyboards again and it's weird to have to press so hardd

						kicker is consumers are only 30% of the GDP right now
 
 the rich people are the other 70%. luxury brands
 
 so they're fleecing you and have absolutely no care about maintaining you as a customer either. it's just a dying service and soon it won't exist because it's not even worth the effort to sell to the average person anymore because they don't have anything really economy-wise

						I don't know if JavaScript has much basics. to be fair I still haven't used typescript but I did read the docs for it once and I count that as good enough
- 
					
					
						@CaptainRant npm is great and when I started using node.js that was already there
 
 but it's just like. jadejs was a superior templating engine to react for example
 
 and anything Google is just a disaster

 I actually haven't done websockets. I mean I think I did but I wasnt very good at it so I don't remember it. definitely a blind spot
 
 `this` is whatever. async super easy with promises, but I did kind of bastardize stuff into my own framework of sorts when I went promises crazy -- because of the async issues. I don't really remember it now but I ended up figuring out a whole syntax habit to avoid promise collisions/unknowns (think it was like saving a pending promise to this._methodName or something? so then if you need a token for example it does the get token call which checks if there's a pending promise then just awaits on it if there is instead of spawning 20 get token fetchs)

						I learned it back when callbacks were a thing
 
 took 6 months to break in my brain on callbacks. was super easy after that (other than my own architectural insanity, but you get that in every language)
 
 then later I learned a bunch of advanced features playing screeps for 3 months. that really you never need to use. like weird prototype things. nobody uses those and if you do nothing will make sense for anyone else anyway. makes code totally unreadable for anyone. you never encounter it basically anywhere either
 
 did a library around proxies sometime later. maybe took two weeks if I'm overestimating
 
 javascript is nice. so free. not sure you need to learn every feature. stuff seems pretty simple
 
 now... the library ecosystem in js... that I hate. especially what ended up popular and surviving as node js evolved. there were really good libraries that never took off, and big company libraries took off instead even though they're disasters

						ooooo
 
 edit: awww NVM I thought it was a fortress builder not a dungeon crawler

						@retoor shamanic music, psytrance, EDM, synthwave
 
 they don't have artists or names anymore
 
 there's just tons of channels like this that upload 1-2 hour videos every 3 days
 
 sometimes it's ok but it's soulless. like you think something is gonna happen but it's all off which is really annoying. so bland. nothing happens

						I learn when AI coding when the AI codes bad
 
 but I think it takes longer to figure it out. not because I'm using AI to try to figure out why it went wrong but because Google search is just retarded now and the old good stack overflow and YouTube coder knowledges are no longer made for modern stuff. everything is shallow and overly monetized now and it's so miserable
- 
					
					
						I hate AI music so much
 
 I can't find good music anymore because YouTube is just flooded with AI albums/mixes now and they all just sound so flat and bad. you can't stop the slop

						@retoor legit don't know how we're not at the singularity of brain rot rn. I think we are. surely something has to break soon

 I might be coming out of it a bit. got pissed earlier. forgot music exists
 
 when I was more depressed the anxiety didn't come on, but I found talking to people to be "what's the point" so I solved one problem and got landed with functionally the same problem =-=
- 
					
					
						uhhhh
 
 idk what that means but as a Canadian we have a lot of scam callers last 5 years
- 
					
					
						idk I get standstill anxiety when I apply because when I worked I legit wanted to kill myself
 
 *floats around like a dark wraith*

						had a roommate and when high he wanted to suck dick but when sober he couldn't
 
 there's also rumours on the Internet that it's some kind of parasite infection
 
 ... also another group of people all took MDMA and sucked each others' dicks, repeatedly. I don't know what all their orientations were before but probably not that gay
 
 ... I once did a drinking contest with two 280 lb men and rum and by the end of it I wanted to bone them both and that was wild. one of them was sooooo gross. I came out of that and I was horrified

						@Lensflare wait but I don't like programming since my job
 
 also I want death
- 
					
					
						idk how you have the motivation

						#2 when working with idiots or spaghetti
 
 #1 becomes an architecture problem and you'll need to own the code because if someone lesser touches it you'll have problems. but it's a nice fancy race car vroom vroom
- 
					
					
						it's what I'm good at so I guess it's what I'm stuck with
 
 I'm not even good at it anymore, hahahaha. maybe I will again though
 
 I feel like people kind of ruin hobbies for me though. I don't know what's up with that or how to fix it. it's like I got too much black and white thinking when people make things shitty
- 
					
					
						I guess senior guy needs to loosen up?
- 
					
					
						yeah but I don't know how to build anything on my own
- 
					
					
						separate the weak from the chaffing
- 
					
					
						@CaptainRant no the AI gave you sass actually hahaha
- 
					
					
						the AI makes things unnecessarily complicated btw
