1. Leave big company of 1.5y for new job in different country
2. New company tries getting me a visa for 2 months and fails
3. Puts bogus blame on me and ends contract 2 weeks before my "temporary visa" expires coz their incompetent HR couldn't get the documents right.

Fuckers didn't have ONE COMPLAINT against me so UNASSIGNED me from COMPLETED Jira tickets to ruin my OKR stats just to build grounds for this (since last week)

And when I protested, blamed some automation but DIDNT change the spreadsheet. (should've rung some bells for me, but naïve me believed their reasoning)

Big company meeting last week. Engineering Lead put a slide just about me coz my fixes brought a 20-FUCKIN-X performance improvement.
He said "oh I put a slide about [me], I dont see it", HR who was in-charge of compiling the slides said "Oh you sent the slide too late so we didnt put it".

I shrugged it back then thinking oh well but in hind-sight Fuckers went OUT OF THEIR WAY to bury anything I did to build grounds for termination coz THEY couldn't get the visa.

kill me.

Got my dad to try Fruity Loops so that he can compose with his Tyros 3 keyboard on the computer. If he likes it, I will buy producer edition (that one can also record, that's why) for his bday soon. For Christmas I already ordered midi to USB cable for him. Finally I know what to give to someone who already has everything. He needs stuff for his stuff :p

It will be much fun experimenting together with it. My dad can go very hard on new things, he always becomes a pro in it.

I hope it will be just as nice as the time we spent together on Autocad. He later even made Autocad exams for schools.

He learned me how to install windows 3.11 as very little kiddo.

I like my dad doing computer stuff. It's the moment we really bond.

If I hear ONE MORE time "ChatGPT is like Google but better/smarter" I WILL choke a motherfucker to DEATH

I made it

How do I increase my communication?

I feel more confident and less anxious now thanks to exercising more, so it's easier to talk to people.

But I'm told not talking to people, just coming in doing your work and leaving is bad by my boss.

I'm not sure how I can just approach people and talk shit. I guess I have to start with lunch. How do I find people to each lunch with?

Was fucking around today and found out you can get yourself a 6 axis DIY robot arm for ~500$. Which on itself is kinda neat. But what really blew me away is that their documentation is nowhere near as horseshit as i expected from usual projects you recreate. Hava spin on it for yourself:

3 pm salami and cheese...

I'm sorry little unused tuple, I know you want to show who you are but if I let you, nothing will be orthogonal and you know that daddy just can't have that. Hey, at least I didn't disintegrate you like bad Mr.Black does everytime I look away, so heads up alright? :)

Is there anything more demoralizing and cringe than the All Hands Meeting?

Any Microsoft employees who work on SharePoint here? DROP AND GIMME 20!

OMG, you need some blood to run into that walnut sized brain you have on top of your head.

This thing is such a piece of shit. While I subscribe to Chaos Theory, you are not suppose to implement it in a god damn user interface!

This fucking thing sometimes shows controls, sometimes does not. Sometimes some features are available on a section when you access it one way, and then accessing it a different way removes some capabilities from the menus and adds others.

While I subscribe to the theory that there is no such thing as "random" in the universe, this piece of 🐒💩 makes me start to doubt reality. It is not software, it is cochroach infested gaslightware.

God damn you microsoft fuckers piss me off with your ShitPot web hackware.

Cognito is the dumbest piece of crap ever known to man. Markets itself as a great & easy auth solution to dumbass CTOs who then force the devs to implement it.

I spent a week or so trying to figure out why my token expires immediately after logging in only to find out that they issued me a token that is already revoked.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK COGNITO????

I plainly told the manager responsible for programming that we all use web extensions and there's just no way to effectively prevent programmers from running whatever software they deem necessary, so I'm suggesting to allow them in Windows group policy purely as a matter of efficiency.

It has only just occurred me how much I'm relying on his better judgment not to try and crack down on this.

Wish me and my team luck.

I'm gonna scream the next time I hear a newscaster or some podcaster or some other bloke try to explain "what AI is" by giving some half assed word salad describing (a child's perception of) neural networks.
Fuck, back when the internal combustion engine was invented, did the newsies and radio hosts explained the concept of "explosion" every time they were to talk about engines?

but programming

and first slot is office

If Indian scammers only had a tiny bit of patience with customers (victims), and practiced English accents, they'd become millionaires so easily.

End of the year. Management announced that the project that our team has been working in for more than 4 years, will be killed.
Shit.

So I'm married now so I'm gonna tune down the trolling <3 love yall

Our biggest competitor has just been hacked. All their sensitive data, including passwords and client data, has been compromised.

It is not yet in the news, but someone forwarded their internal communication to us. :D

(fixed mistranslation)

Microsoft. Ah, microsoft. That excellent company that made Windows. Ah, Windows, that excellent OS that it's team made WinAPI. Ah WinAPI. That excellent API that has WinMain. Ah W- FUCK WINMAIN IT RUINS EVERY PROJECT SERIOUSLY WINMAIN WINAPI GO FUCK URSELF HEY WINDOWS TEAM REFACTOR RECODE OR WATHEVER YOUR API AHHH

Happy sint niklass and fuck that whipping guy.

Also I would like to thanks my haters @tosensei and that american dude, their constant feedbacks really helped me to grow as a person <3

Anyway I'm kindof happy. Have you recieved a lotof candies?

I've probably suggested this before, but people who introduce arbitrary factors of 100 into calculations for no good reason should have their genitals removed with a wooden spoon.

And if they don't make it clear that they've introduced a factor of 100, then the removed genitals should be pyrotechnically reinserted into them.

My work week will be pumped from 38 hours to 40 hours per week but the pay remains the same...

And holidays are adjusted from unlimited PTO to 32 days

My job gave me 500 euros as Christmas gift. And I didn't redeemed the gift card from last year so that's 1000 extra euros who arrived at the right time (coz I got no money).

Anyone lese doing that ? https://adventofcode.com/

Damn I hate my solution for day 2 already lol. But it does work

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much work do you get done in the month of December?

Current Company: Our coding standards is according to the dumbest assumed programmer! Therefore everything shall stay the same as there will be chaos if a convetion changes.

Free at last! I quit my soul sucking job from these demon bosses. I’ll use use this opportunity now to become a freelancer. Any tips for the German market would be greatly appreciated!

It baffles me that even now people still use ChatGPT to learn new things. LLMs are the antithesis of learning. They're inaccurate so you're left reasoning from flat out incorrect principles, they save you from encountering neighboring information to the answer you seek which is a central mechanic for developing a mental model, and the further away you are from common thought patterns the less their training applies which makes them fundamentally and unfixably terrible at detecting and correcting misunderstandings.

Well, the rant is because I have to go to Madrid twice a month, which is annoying.

But now I'm writing your GPU drivers, bitches 😂.

More concretely, for those who may care, gonna work in HLSL to spir-v conversion.
