It's the middle of the night, you shouldn't feel guilty about not answering your phone, that's crazy

damn Javascript developers, they ruined Javascript!

That doesn't make any sense, the main purpose of a dark theme is to reduce eye strain: the main cause of headaches while working long hours behing a screen.

My boss is free to stalk my social media, I only have a FB account with like 3 posts, and the most recent one is 9 years old.

Sure, but you also learn to not give a fuck anymore about what random people think of you

@AvyChanna I think they deleted it, it attracted a lot of incredibly negative comments on dev.to
-
And it's gone!
The author has apparently deleted the linked article (or was it removed?). -
This article is comedy gold!
(PHP is) "Based on the user-friendly feature "
Of course, everyone knows the user-friendly!
"PHP programming language is familiar with the Syntax"
Ahh yes, Syntax, Lord of the Void.
"The memory space feature helps to process the faster speed."
Hmm...
Alright. The profile of the writer is clearly fake, there is no way any English speaking person from the US writes/talks like this. -

bash: cd: /var/spool/mail/root: No such file or directory, christmas is cancelled. Ho ho ho motherfucker. -
@Fast-Nop Wouldn't say bootstrap is ALWAYS bad, it really depends on the use case (it is really great for prototyping for example).
And, to be fair, bootstrap is hardly the main reason why many websites using it are slow.
A lot of websites load so much freaking analytics/marketing/heatmap crap without deferring or using some kind of intersection observer to load on demand.
For many of these websites bootstrap causes the least of their issues. -
Fully agreed, because I am a developer I have a severe distrust towards most software.
The only internet connected devices in my house are my PC and my laptop, because at least I have control over them.
I REALLY dislike pretty much all IoT devices, most of these "smart" devices add literally nothing and a lot of them will end up sucking 100% of maximum power in a few years anyway when security updates stop and they are recruited in some botnet.
But I am looking for a new TV, one without "smart-TV" or at least one that functions properly without any internet connection. Any suggestions? -
@Fast-Nop More than 32K is bad? Dang, I thought we where doing good with 83K CSS (minified+gzip and using webpack for a single file).
But you're probably right, this shit is mostly bootstrap CSS, and like 95% isn't needed most likely.
But it's not like the front end devs here care... I actually had to adjust the file size limit for images in our CMS because these fucks kept uploading up to 25MB images to display on our website. I put the limit at 50KB (which is a lot since it's mostly tiny pictures), for anything bigger they need to ask me.
NO KAREN YOUR 40x40px JPG THUMBNAIL SHOULD NOT BE 1378KB. -
Did you sign in on another device?
Many websites use a cookie for this and signing in on another device invalidates the "remember me" cookie on other devices.
It may also depend on checking "remember me" on another device, many websites only remember one "remember me" token (so 1 device/browser max). -
What does it matter if they merge it?
It is the same company, all your data was already merged with that of FB a long time ago.
You should've quite Instagram when FB bought it. -
Getting a remote job is really hard, I know 2 people who work remote but they work at US companies from the EU. But the pay is not that great IMHO.
I myself work remote too, but that is purely by luck, my office moved far away due to being bought, but they decided to keep me because I was the only one who understands most of business critical crap they built over the past 8 years.
It would also be a 5-6 hours commute DAILY if I didn't work remote, so I told them I would only work remote for them or I'd get another job. -
Easy fix: just get a job programming in primarily one language and then after work you will be too burned out to try anything new!

Today seemed a pretty nice day at the start.
But then my extremely simple datetime to year+week conversion function did not seem to work properly.
Like literally it will work fine between 3:00 and 3:59 and then at 4:00 it fucks everything up. At 4:01 everything will work perfectly again.
100% sure it is something completely idiotic I did.
But, that's Monday me's problem. -
Do you have multiple developers on local branches all pushing directly to origin/master?
You might want to rethink that for your own sanity. -
I have this with the PIN for my debit card, if I think about it I get it wrong.
So I just stare into the void and let my finger muscles work it out.
