Hot take: It's not a bug. You just wrote a broken program.

Your one-line JavaScript arrow functions AREN'T LEGIBLE! You've just memorized their shape. It's OK. But don't lie to yourself. They look super stupid. They aren't for humans.

I hate to offer some unsolicited critique of something I happily use for free... but I have to say this somewhere to just get it out. That's what this place is for, right?

The new MDN visual design fucking sucks.

It's like a purposeful example I might make for my students - of "what not to do." There were a few things they could have done to improve MDN for sure. Instead, they didn't improve it. They just "changed it." That is always a bad move. Now everything just has less contrast and is floating around with nothing to anchor it. Didn't they show it to anyone and get feedback along the way? "So, we made all the fonts closer to the same size, removed any differentiation in weight so that everything will look the same and just kinda blur out and put people to sleep, and just in general dulled everything out as much as possible - and also here's this logo thing too."

“Hello. Is there anyone can help me?”

Please explain how this is helpful:

“I started learning to code today while I was in the toilet. Let me tell you about the best app to learning coding for beginners.”

How does this person have such blind confidence in their first though?

I was chatting with someone the other day, and during the conversation, it sounded like they would benefit from pair programming with someone and talking about the benefits of pseudocode. I offered to work on it with them (for free/for fun).

Then they said that they are looking specifically for queer and non-traditional gender identities to collaborate with.

Well. I've always been a supporter of all of the things, but it seems ridiculous to choose your friends and mentors - based on what they've got in their pants - and which places they like to stick it - and how they identify.

Immaturity comes in all flavors.

I don't even know what this is. But - it's over... but I can renew...

But what about my hotel discounts!?

self explanitory

Get the fuck out of my way!!! I don't need autocomplete. I just want to type - and also see what is in the console - at the same time.

If there are no backup singers... and you are the only singer... is it really important for you to specify that you are a "lead" singer?

"Hi. I just started programming - and I typed things and they don't look right. I think it's something to do with the web browser.... firefox does... and chrome does......"

(It's you)

"Hey I have problems - can you help me?"

"Hi. What are they?"

"God! Geez... I was just asking for help. No one ever helps me never mind."

"You're not helping me right!"

It's great to know that there's really THAT much room for improvement.

I think we might actually need WOMEN around here...

Every time I tweet something... I regret it - and then I go back to find it and delete it - or add an update comment... and I can't find it...

Every time...

It is a ghost? Or is Twitter's UI an inside joke?

Have I said this before? The Google - everything and the Facebook - everything... is SO FUCKED. Seriously... why would anyone ever want to work somewhere with weekend-bootcamp- hackathon quality user interface? You have to be an "expert" in their exact interface of the month just to give them money.

"Hey, don't promote yourself - where I'm trying to promote myself... ok? Have some respect."

OMFG...

What the fuck is wrong with you fucking morons. This is the INTERNET.

IT IS FOR SHARING THINGS.

Just because you feel special / doesn't mean - anything.

This isn't YOUR soapbox. And even if it was... look at your feet you dumb fuck. You are the one standing on it.

!rant... but just gotta say... this new M1 MacBook feels fucking awesome. And I already had a late 2019 MacBook. The actual feel is different... right? Not just the chip? But it's super super fast. Also NO fan when I record screencasts...

It's super fucking rad... and - yeah. Just kinda want to shout that. Maybe I'm crazy...

Hook up plaid and a few APIs to a half-assed MVP. OK! I guess we’re a bank now. Hope that’s enough... because now we’re just going to let it ride and see what happens... - Bank Novo

Is it even possible to buy music anymore? This "Music" / iTunes store... is a total fucking mystery now.

Came to rant about a thing not working only to try and post an image here 3 times... ugh... what a fucking day.

The answer to your question isn't going to help if you don't understand the problem - or - the answer.

That moment when you realize that writing “that moment when...” is because you’re too passive and insecure to just say what you really want to say...

!rant https://rambly.app/ is very cool... just sayin...

“Hi. I’m trying to PM you.”

“Ok. I don’t accept friend requests - because people ask me private questions - and the whole point of this public forum is to ask questions publicly.”

“But if I could just show you my link and ask you some questions...”

If you take a crappy website... and then you draw out a few screens of that visual design... and change some colors and borders... (and it not even a real interface) (just a screenshot of a photoshop document) (and it doesn't work) (and it's basically the same shitty interface) (and it's not real) (and you never tested it with users)

...and you are feeling like you have imposter syndrome, it's because you aren't a UX designer. You need help. You are deeply delusional.

We can help you - but you have to be really honest with yourself...

You're going to have to do some real work, read some books, and accept that *praise* - is not the goal.

Reddit... is so confusing to me. Can't post until you've posted enough... ok... I get it, like a green-card. I have to be in the US for 7 years before I can get a green-card, but I'm not allowed to be in the US. BUT

Seriously... answer me this:

What do I write here... if I want to ask the moderator a question? I've sent a bunch and I'm starting to think that it is my fault. I'm not going to lead the witness here: just please explain it to me.

Will this send it to all of the mods? Do I need to pick 1 mod and put their name there? Please... help me understand. This just shuts my brain off when I read it.

If we were talking - and then all of the sudden, I don’t talk to you anymore... it’s probably because you ignored my advice and chose to go to an especially bad boot camp. Now - that’s fine! But the reason I’m not talking to you is because I just don’t know how to say anything positive about your terrible decision and the terrible school... so - I’m just not saying anything at all.

All you have to do to be a successful internet business / is to make something that isn’t insanely fucking terrible in every way... or make something insanely terrible... but have so much money and coverage and control that there is really no way to fail.

And of course / option 2 requires a bunch of mindless developers with no regard for what their creations do to the world.
