if you're homeless, just.... buy a house

Video editing is hard af. I shifted from VSDC Free editor to Davinci Resolve now, and its kicking my ass.

That's all.

I saw a video today that claimed that the MOST STRESSFUL job in the world is ...

wait for it....

Midwife/Stay at home parent.

I lol'd at it. I just thought, can't they automate a bunch of their chores with say, roombas, dishwashers and washing machines?

Hospitals creep the fuck outta me. The excess smell of Dettol makes me wonder how many people died within a 10 meter radius and if any of them are "lingering" around.

"It's just a button! Why's it taking so long to build it?"

One thing that I've noticed after getting married, is the fact that I have to be careful when I'm switching sleep positions while my wife is asleep next to me. I can't just flail like that.

Because there is a high probability that my elbow can go into her jaw and knock her out.

why waste 6 hours reading the docs when you can 'one-shot' it

oh come on guys, it's getting boring here. Start a fight or something.

I like Twitter better because I can ragebait the shit out of people.

Y'all are quite immune to it now.

I lost a client today 😞.
One of the fundamental reasons freelance sucks major balls.

Omg I love Python. I code with it every day and cannot recommend it more. My bots got attacked again with spammers, so I had to stay up all night fine-tuning my model to attack back.

I am gonna get a sigarette now. Fuck, I'm so tired.

If you want to know how bad the job market is in India, a colleague told me that he got offered a job from an employer, where the condition is he has to give 20% of his paycheck back to the employer in their other bank account.

I never thought I'd rant about this. But here I am.

I am making too much money. That's my issue.
(For any Indians here, I am making 48 LPA take-home salary freelancing this year)

But this is costing me my daily life now. I am literally glued to the screen from 9 AM to 12 midnight every day. I do mean everyday, 7 days a week.

It's already March. I never even felt Jan and Feb passing me by. But yeah, I had to air this out. My chest feels lighter now.

I opened devRant today and saw ostream call b2plane a "Manslut".

now I can't tell what's real or not real.

I'm officially at a point of writing software that I know this snippet of code will be absolute hell for the next developer to maintain.

Doesn't matter how well I document it, doesn't matter how well I break down the problem.

The `why` of the problem is gonna drive the maintainer crazy later. The most dangerous part, it might as well be me in the coming months.

RIP the next developer, who will have to maintain my spaghetti (includes me).

Now that kiki has taken the L from their "Starve to death challenge"

I wanna start my own "STARVE To DEATH challenge"

I am gonna start the day with a bowl of milk and cereal, two apples and a protein shake.

Then for lunch I'm gonna eat a double cheese crust pizza with diet coke (duh)

For dinner I'm gonna eat a big bowl of mac and cheese and then before sleeping, I am gonna eat ice cream.

Good plan, right?

I've never understood the corporate word "bi-weekly"

Like is it, two times a week?

Or is it one time every two weeks?

Which is it ffs?

It's been a while since I've said it

Fuck AI, Fuck Sam altman, Fuck Open AI, Fuck Microsoft

Fuck any other chatbot company that exists in today's world

Im so drunk right now no cap fr fr

And fuck you too kanyewest formerly Alexanderr. Yeah you'd think we'd forget didn't you?

Remember that I said that many of y'all here can be YouTubers?

I posted a roadmap video for you to become one

https://youtube.com/watch/...

Watch it, implement it and watch the $$$ roll in.

Google Assistant got replaced by Gemini on my phone. What used to work before, me saying "Hey Google, set an alarm for 5 pm" doesn't work anymore.

"I am only a language model so I can't help you with that" is the default response.

Does big tech not like the idea of things working fine and smooth?

I got pushed into coding in React by my client. They're paying me extremely nicely so I couldn't turn the offer away.

Next up is going to be FastAPI which I assume it's Python???? I haven't looked into it yet.

Guess I'm going from Laravel/NodeJS/MySQL stack to Python/React/PostgreSQL stack now.

I'll make sure to document my learning journey here.

The second Deepseek released as open-source, America started to try to pass a law that makes it's usage illegal and punishable upto a million dollars and 20 years in jail.

so yeah.... OpenAI more like "IAmTheOnlyAI"

Coding "podcasts" are really the worst thing on the internet right now.

Everybody's losing their mind on deepseek. But it's the same trash as ChatGPT.

npm install will-to-live --dev

Say what you want about spaghetti code written by either you yourself or other people, dealing with it is a massive requirement for becoming a dev.

I do think sometimes, that many of the members here are missing out on millions of dollars and fame, just because they don't choose to be a YouTuber in the dev space.

Given the skill that you guys got, I can say with 100% confidence that y'all will make it. Some of you that I can think of are:

lorentz
Ranchonyx
Lensflare
atheist
kiki

I mean it, y'all are missing out on life-changing money.

I once saw an accountant (might be > 60 years old), open up his Windows laptop. And on the home screen he right clicked and hit "Refresh" like 30 times, manually.

I don't know why but I think about that every once in a while.

Violence is never the answer.

It's a question.

The answer is Yes.

I am against the idea of outsourcing dev jobs.
Every software company should hire in-house devs, that live in the same country/region the company is in.
