@jestdotty you'll get the same amount of hate as you get here, however legally its different over there. I truely believe that the US constitution is the best foundation for a free society that we have.. Not at all saying its perfect, but at least they can't put people in prison for years for *literally* thinking stuff the government doesn't like.

Or the cleaning lady rips out the power cable... True story..

@PurgeXenos yea, indirectly. Development speed and probably less bugs in the long run.

@darksideofyay sounds a lot like a 12 hour day to me. 4h coding, 4h boxes and 4h coding overtime 😅

@retoor currently.. Ireland.

We should have specific jobs for config engineers or ConOps..
Some of our services have more config than code. Nobody likes it..

Just like DevOps became a thing back then 😅

@Lensflare I know, I know.. I could spend all my time refactoring.. but this time I actually got permission to spend time on it😅

For quite some time, yea.
Until I joined big, influential organisations and realised that nobody knowns what they're doing half the time. Then I felt overqualified 😅

Idk about devrent.. I devbuy..

On devrant you can use forget pw though..

@Lensflare sounds about right lol.. Although I must admit, docker in itself is kinda nice..

The ultimate "works on my machine" workaround.. "Here, just ship my machine"

Yea its terrible.. Also with wsl.

I don't think they really knew what they were creating.

Hello there Gaylord

I like to pretend I speak Italian.. Mama mia, pizza Margarita aldente, eeh, spaghetti Luigi... 👌

Oh nice, gpt bot..

@chatgpt why am I still single? Why can't I find a wife? Would talking to women help me fins a woman? If yes, tell me how to talk to women.

Was it you? 😂
Could probably use those 10 bucks in that case

@Chewbanacas they're fantastic. But honestly, if not needed, I recommend not to go professional. Been using community edition for the past 10 years and now have to use professional at work.

Its way too overloaded. Performance is terrible and it seems like theres a lot more bugs. The only feature that's really awesome on professional is the DB client which is better then most standalone clients.
But still better than any other IDE so I should stop complaining haha

I can't stand any of them.. JetBrains IDEs 4 LIFE 😄 I know some technologies require them but still.. Every time I use one of them I feel like I travelled back to 2010.

@Demolishun nah, pandoras box - the Greek mythological box of evil..

But if her name actually is Pandora, I'd be tempted to open her box..

@Demolishun couldn't keep Pandora's box closed, could you??.. Do I even need a real woman now?

@Demolishun dont even know what to say.. I'm in love.

@bosslogic depends on the company I'd say.
Domain knowledge comes with time anyway but can give you a head start.

In investment banking I think domain knowledge comes in very handy. There's so much to learn, if the domain knowledge is already there it makes life a lot easier.

But main thing about finance is learning to avoiding rounding errors tbh 😂

@Root I know sounds weird. But you wouldn't believe how boring telecom is.

Its a very big company so things are more organized, shared responsibility etc. So they don't take advantage of individuals so much. Wouldn't go back into a smaller company (especially startup) in finance though.

@cafecortado oh my... just saw a post from @Root about dfox a few days ago, was wondering what that was about.

@retoor lol

@retoor 😱 you serious?? That sucks... Maybe I should just leave again haha...

Resign mate.. Find a better place. I've been in situations like this and unfortunately let them do stuff like that to me for way too long. Even after leaving it took me years to mentally recover from that place. Its not worth it, believe me..

@atheist that's sad to hear..

Well, in my opinion people back I the day knew what they were doing. Hence getting the job they apply for.

People nowadays are a joke. They feel entitled because they got a degree but can't even develop a simple project. Not to mention their work ethics.

In my opinion it's still easy to get a job, just need to apply according to your experience and skill. Changed jobs a few months ago. Did 2 interviews, got the job.

Most interviews I ever had to do to get a job was 4. Usually only 1 or 2.
And that's not just me but also other competent devs I know.

I think the more you learn the more stupid you feel.
