The ratio of time spent reading versus writing is well over 10 to 1. We are constantly reading old code as part of the effort to write new code

Third-world countries like Russia do deplorable shit. First-world countries do deplorable shit too. The difference is I can be vocally anti-Biden in the US without a red-hot soldering iron being inserted into my rectum by the police.10

After a week’s vacation, I felt the briefest feeling of being a person again. I was able to do something small and enjoy it, and even planned to do another small thing.5

If Tetris figures consisted of five squares instead of four, it would've been called “Pentis”.
There are also Sextis, Septis and Octis.9 -
My tip for staying productive: **Don't**
Take a break. Take a few. Have a nap. Take a stroll outside. Enjoy life.
Life's too short. If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong.
Fuck productivity.3 -

Man, I told you to not drink so much the last night, now wash your face and grab a coffee, you have a program for the VAX-11 to finish.8 -
When you forgot that you downloaded something directly into your src directory and then download a few other pics and then run a build 😂3

There’s something I gotta tell ya.
I posted this a while ago. This Friday, they removed a tumor from my lower lip. I never had tumors before, let alone on my face.
I’ll know if it was malignant or not next Friday.10 -
One of my parents likely has cancer (waiting for results to confirm), my work is currently cutting benefits, I am reaching a new level of burnout where my voice just cracks during meetings and I have terrible sore throat afterwards and the only project I was looking forward to, is deprioritized due to company doing bs (so much bs that there’s a team that expects progress even though it has been officially deprioritized). And don’t ask me about the junior, I don’t even have energy anymore to rant.
People ask me how am I, and I’m wondering how much more shit needs to happen before it’s acceptable to reply “I’m regretfully sober”6 -
As I've been a windows user as long as I can remember, Mac OS always seemed like the COOL OS. until I started using it. I mean, seriously apple? you cannot cut and paste a file? you cannot move a window to another monitor if there's an app in full screen? screenshots are saved in the desktop instead of a dedicated folder & I cant even change it?12

My mom came home crying
I thought she watched a sad dog movie again in the cinema
She said she came back from the doctor
Immediately i felt extreme distress, cause my mom never cries from doctors unless it is something extremely serious such as cancer (she had cancer surgeries about 3 times over 15 years)
I asked what is it
She said she has to do... a heart surgery....
why..... what kind of life is this6 -
If I had a nickel every time the unit tests failed not because something was wrong in the code, but because someone had messed up the unit test I'd be able to retire early.
I just spent the better part of 10 hours hunting down a bug in some production code only for the test to be wrong because the person who wrote it had mocked the http response incorrectly.
Nothing I did to "fix" the code worked, because nothing was wrong with it...4 -
Took some time off with the Mrs for our crotch goblin's first birthday and it was wonderful. I properly switched off for the first time since he was born, barely touched a keyboard, went outside, slept. I felt great.
But Jesus H Christ trying to get my mind back into work mode is a slow and difficult process. More coffee please.5 -
we need you to do migrations in a legacy codebase which includes changes against a tool you will not have access to test against1

Get loads of problems with the shit I'm trying to refactor, now I'm late with the simple task13 -
Any modern tech stack is this thing times 100 if we wanna count layers between our users and our cpus
Thank Python and next js for that11 -
Coffee mugs should have an alarm for when the coffee is about to get cold. I'm too focused on work to care about the coffee.8
