When asked if i will code for stock options or profit shares, i might remind the prospect that in most countries, i would own the entire codebase if working for no pay. Most work for hire agreements put ownership of the system and code into the paying clients name, as i understand it. so if youre not collecting pay, you would own (possibly the only copy of) the code. If that doesnt scare the client away, maybe i should remind them id be legally allowed to sell the code to their competitors. Then do so if i see a bettrr paying client (i.e. any paying client) If anyone knows if im making legal sense id appreciate it.

Pays the bills

Being able to understand and get along with almost any grafical user interface at once without reading manuals, due to knowing the intentions of the UX-designers.

Family and friends are stunned everytime, when they don't know how to do something on programs they don't know, while I often need just a few clicks to archieve it, even if I'm using the program for the first time

I now value mechanical keyboards.

I try to autocomplete with tab on everything!

Just one day please. I just want to sleep in once without that dreaded phone call or alert.
I know one of my favorite things I. The world is donating my pdo back to my company but my wife isn't so happy about it.

Missed some great opportunities thanks to coding

Every Website seem to has some glitches... and you can't ignore them like non-web-devs do... i wish i could look up the menu on a local restaurant-website without going crazy about the buggy slider or the misaligned address-div

How has coding impacted my life?
Well I got permanent dark circles to flaunt 😎

Programming tought me that time is relative.

8h of writing code feeling like just 2h and a hurting back.

What's the funny thing about UDP jokes?

I don't care if you get them.

It is the weekend and I will be a meme ++ whore just this once.

Ever happened with you?

When linux crashes : "OK, maybe i did a mistake, the program i made was bad or something like that"
When windows crashes : "THE FUCK THIS OS IS BULLSHIT !"

I have previously worked with a company where they were copying project codes through a USB and making local backups of the whole project with dates and not using git.

You know, i think making a linux distro where it's ubuntu but "Sudo" is swapped with the word "Please" would be a good use of knowledge and time
