I'm seeing a pattern here... We devs/testers/sysadmins/etc. don't get to spend too much time outside... We talk about different stuff than most people... We are more intelligent than most people so we don't get their dumb jokes... Most of us like to work at night because that's the time when nobody bothers us...

We don't get a chance to find a girlfriend, we don't understand how it works...

We are doomed

This is true me..
Ain't you???

They burn my eyes every time.

1. I don't have to use headphones to listen to music. Can listen in speakers and avoid my ears being sweaty
2. No random interruptions from anyone. Interruptions are usually from slack messages and emails which I can decide when to look at
3. Have a solid 1 or 2 hours for coding (because of the above 2 reasons)
4. The time spent in commuting is instead spent on nap or relaxing

Not having to deal with traffic or public transport. It would save me 2-3 hours a day

Here is the first step of my software that will keep track of "what bills am I currently paying?" throughout your day. This is analysis mode, you can specify your expenses and income (after tax) in a json file and it will build this report for you.

Here's an example with relatively realistic figures

The next step is to visualize it and have it render some charts and graphs. Yay!

Corona beer gud.

What a monster... but it also looks oddly satisfying 🤔

Heard a fun quote from a project manager today:

"Naaah we don't need tests, that project is so small it wouldn't be worth it"

Seconds later: "Why does this keep breaking all the time and we only notice it once deployed?"

Trying to sleep!!!

Creativity level "dragon egg".

@dfox can we extend the wk199 topic a week longer please?

Here's a recent interview I had for an Android Developer job:
I: Interviewer, M: Me

I: hello, welcome
M: hi, thanks

I: do you know Kotlin?
M: yes, I've been working with it for 1.5 years and have written 3 projects in it

I: do you know RxJava, Dagger, Retrofit, and how to make Custom Views?
M: yes, I'm comfortable with them *explains*

I: do you know Room?
M: yes I do, I've done a lot of practices in it, but unfortunately have never needed to use it in production

I: what architecture do you use? Do you know MVP?
M: I'm currently using MVVM, but not MVP. I've debugged projects in it so I know what's going on in it

I: ok, do you have any questions for us?
M: how did I do?

I: I'm sorry sir, but you're not even a junior here
M: what? Why is that?

I: well you don't know Room and MVP?
M: I said I know them, just haven't used them in production.

I: well you have 3 years of experience but you dont even know Kotlin!
M: Kotlin was your first question and I said I have 3 projects in it. Did you even check the samples you asked for in the job posting?

I: SIR YOU'RE NOT A GOOD FIT FOR US, THANK YOU FOR COMING.

:/

God works in mysterious ways...

this guy found 1 mysterious way.

Setting Newyear's resolution to 4k..

failed: could not find X window system.
Please check the configuration logs.

Interviewer: Do you know about SQL injection?

Student: Yessss

Interviewer: Okay, how we can prevent it?

Student: Yes, we should prevent it as prevention is always better than cure. It can lead to data loss and other problems so it can be difficult to fix it if it happens. The best case is that nothing like that takes place. [...]

Interviewer: I get it but how?

Student: By not building any web applications.

[Silence]

Interviewer: Nice, you may go. Do not call us. We will call you.

Every time gradle build breaks, and I have to waste 2 days brute forcing solution out of it.

What is up with this guy

Cutting edge apple

Actual Name problems... Lol

Again, not related to programming.....

You might have seen servers running XP, but have you ever seen a car running CE?

Makes sense.

That moment, when you're on a hurry and hit "update now" by mistake. Been 45 minutes staring at the screen

On point.....

Nice workaround xD

Anyone else just not care if you use GitHub or GitLab? Competition is a good thing.

Thanks, Microsoft.

New vm to my collection, now going to download dos😂😂
