I swear all this neovim-lua rage with different distros and crazy setups and never ending plethora of plugins is over the top and adding more clutter than my 2011 Eclipse setup. I can't keep the fuck up with all the changes and updates.

So if I want to add a plugin or a config to my "hand-written" config, I have to look through dozens of distros LazyVim, Kickstart.vim, LunarVim, AstroVim, CrapVim, .... in order to find something that just works ...

Are HR universally incompetent? I recently rejected an offer from a company mostly because of their incompetent HR.

Nothing beats starting your work day discussing scrum...

I had the confidence that I was a good engineer most of the time and I have proved it more than once, but now during this period of my life, I suddenly feel weirdly inadequate...

Rewrite in Rust or GTFO

At this stage, I feel like I'm too old to setup a new project and setup a database and write migrations and all that. I just wanna all that setup for me and I do something less mundane. It's probably why I don't start any new projects anymore.

Happy new year!

Why do I have to google how to start a new nodejs project every time?

Spent about 3 hours yesterday trying to update ArchLinux (I wanted to update a certain package). Something to do with slow/failed mirrors timing out. Updated the mirrors in a not ideal way (https://gist.github.com/vodik/...). Then got package conflicts, of course. Then something about package cache. Then used `reflector` to update the mirrors. Then got another problem with the PGP keys. And finally, the update completed and now I can open vlc to watch the office...

With this new manager joining, it's like the full circle of idiots is complete!

I'm reading jobs ads for engineers at my current company and laughing. It sounds so serious with the wording they use but in reality, it's a clownhub.

This shows I should not be intimidated by job ads and trust my abilities and have more fucking confidence!

I'm rewriting my DNA in Rust

I used `git commit --allow-empty` today, and I almost teared up. It reminded me of my life.

It's weird and scary how fragile we humans are. Somedays, I'm well collected, I know my worth, I contribute to generate some value and some other days, I feel like a complete loser, can't contain a thought in my head, can barely function properly, ...

I guess having emotions and being emotional is normal for humans?

Dear diary, I got a date with one awesome girl!

And now I can't sleep..

It's weird how these "senior engineers" bash on other people's code while they themselves are still stuck coding in 2007 and refuse anything new or different. "Software Engineer" has become a laughing stock that I don't want to associate myself with the title anymore. Instead of engineers, I'd call those seniors "software tools" (also human "tools" for that matter).

!dev 😪

Amazing how a girl can drive you bonkers!

Baby sister just told me to "google it."

Trolling, music, guitar, thinking about things, looking for a girlfriend, ... but yeah, mostly trolling.

Software-engineer social skill level:

I just said "see ya", casually, to the Uber Eats delivery guy.

Nothing sobers you up like some Java.

I wanna rant about fucking Wayland today. Why the fuck can't I use my Bluetooth headphones in a google meet call! Jesus H Christ!!

At least the camera works! I should learn sign language...

I wanna make the world a better place though web apps and CSS. Maybe I will cure cancer.

Before I bought a couch, I thought I had to get a couch because when I have a girl at my place, she will definitely think I'm a serial killer who's going to murder her.

Now that I have my couch, yeah I still don't have any girls over.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

What do you do if you do not understand a CS concept/paper and you already graduated so there's no professors or TAs to help?

so much good music in this world for us lowly mortals

High!!

I wake up with so much interest and enthusiasm for programming and tech. It all goes away when I start work at 9 AM. Everyday at 5 PM, I question my career choices. I don't have the interest from the beginning of the day nor the energy to do anything.

Entire careers are built on "Any updates?" emails.

Okay, here's a rant for you: neo fucking vim and their fucking wrapper plugins for wrapper plugins for wrapper plugins for plugins "tHat'S wRitTen in LOWAA". The fuck is wrong with you, you fucking dumpshits?! Bram was right to not get involved in this bullshit!!
