I emptied out my conditioner bottle the same time as my shampoo bottle.
Ok fine, It was my 6th shampoo bottle, but it's still something.3 -
No fuck off we don't need a team meeting about it.
We shouldn't need to go in front of a panel to begin with, let us get on with our job and let us automate the shit so sprint planning wouldn't be so difficult2 -

At first, you're just a baby who cries and poops.
You outgrow the baby clothes, the crib and the stroller.
Then, you're just a child who plays, runs around and starts school.
You grow tired of your toys and are no longer allowed in the ballpit.
Then, you're just a teenager who curses, sulks and defies your parents.
You grow tired of teen music, stow your stuff away and move out.
Then, you're just a student who finally gets to drive a car and vote, but has no money.
You get a job, a place of your own, start dating and fall in love.
Then you're just a noob at everything you do; new at work, newly in love; feeling your way through life.
You have children and no longer have time to spare for anything else.
Then, you're just a parent taking parental leaves, attend parent-teacher meetings and neglect your friends.
You're no longer welcome in the children's games, or even to talk to them.
Then, you're just an "old fart" or "bitch" who's only good when you give them dough.
You help the children move out, you retire and have grandchildren.
Then, you're just a senior citizen who talks about nothing but your grandchildren and go window shopping outside the pharmacy.
You're hearing and vision get impaired, you get ailments and lose your memory as well as your intellect.
Then, you're just dead.
So, at what stage of life are you really somebody?4 -
I can’t anymore with those companies hiring unicorns only, reposting the same job offer for 6 months while they could have hired someone more junior and taught them. 1 year my girlfriend is in the “no experience” death loop while she outsmarts me by far.10

Today is the Put Your Open-Source Projects Into Public Domain Day. Face it: your open source ventures earned you no fame and no lucrative job offers.
Really successful open source projects earn their creators those things no matter the license — just look at porsager/postgres.
So, why limit the usage rights?14 -
When the IDE doesn't show a scrollbar so you need to know/see to stretch it to find the settings you need.

There’s a very small crossover between “programming problems I need solved” and “programming problems ChatGPT can solve”. I’ve tried maybe 10 times and got a good answer possibly once of those ten.9

I feel like I hit a milestone yesterday - a post of mine was used by a farming bot on Reddit lol1 -

I couldn't even come up with this without the size limitation -
Got job offer, nice pay, started reading - 10 steps of recriutment.
They literally wrote that if I will be lucky I will meat CEO during last phase.
I told myself I would probably puke if I manage to pass all steps and tell this CEO to fuck off if I meet him during interview.
I think I skip this one.3 -
Between me and my wife, we pull in 300k CAD a year, but we're still middle class. We should be fucking ballers living in a mansion, but I'm still budgeting at the grocery store.
I can afford to keep my house up, raise a family, and have 1 nice vacation a year. I guess it's fucked to complain since others are struggling to eat.
Still it seems crazy.19 -
Construction crew came up my street literally in front of my house to dig the ground cause the pipeline for shit got rust and it started leaking shit all over the neighborhood, making the entire street smelly and shitty! This is what happens when i the shitbeast clog not just my toilet but the entire neighborhood with total bullshit! All must feel the wrath of my bullshit2

Microsoft have recently announced two things that are related to each other:
1. Windows 11 will be equipped with a built-in Copilot that will "see" everything the user does and store it locally (at least so they say).
2. A new PC, redesigned from ground up with AI in mind, called CoPilot+ PC, will be released in June.
I'm not sure if any of this is good news. It's disturbing enough that MS Word interfers with my work by displaying "friendly" pop ups about how Copilot can assist me. And there seems to be no way of turning the damn thing off. I don't want to use Word anymore, but at work I'm forced to use Microsoft's shitty office applications. So now I'm resorting to WordPad, which has a much cleaner interface and hasn't yet been infected with M$ Artificial Idiot CockPilot.5 -
The requestor have responsibility for the conditions under which their request will be fulfilled. There is no "do your magic". The magic is always "ours" to some extent.
Details, directions, focus, clear goal, you name it, there is a shit ton of ways the requestor participates in the success.2 -
Shit is getting more and more weird.
Context updating hooks inside useEffect is just icing on the cake especially the comment about how putting that hook in useEffect dependecies would cause infinite loop. No 💩, Sherlock!!!
No dumb components in this project except maybe buttons.
Every fucking component has tons of business logic and you can't simply tear it apart as data structures are all over the place. Prop drilling with every drill-step recieveng data of a different type.
We are using Context. For just one value. One. That's it.
Fuck this shit! This shit beats every anti-pattern approach I saw in my whole life, and this is my 40-ish project!
Over engineering by stdOut playing in the backround while I curse at this POS code.
The product is cool though. And it works™ -
What are your thoughts on jumping ships often to get higher salary?
I feel it doesn't make sense if you are really into learning. From what I've seen, when you become senior or have more responsibilities, the work that needs to be implemented takes more time. Because these responsibilities include aligning multiple teams in the company. Jumping ships won't let anyone experience the work.
I'm not against getting higher salary. But is jumping purely for that reason sustainable in the long run?1 -
Gemini is WAY better than gpt for dev assistance, at least for me. I’m using it a shit ton these days. I’ll still use gpt for questions like if cow tendon soup helps my ankle tendinitis out 😁.
Gemini is my main man4 -
