Opinion: companies desperately need CBD engineers.
For a minute, forget about AI agents, GenAI, Observability, CI/CD, OO, Functional, Quantum Computing, OR, SAP, DevOps, AI Ops, ML Ops, Prompt Engineering, Data Viz, Blockchain, and even Scripting and Compiled languages.
Think about how companies approach problems nowadays.
Some executive sees something on a conference, panics and hires a dozen highly paid individuals with some soothing credentials. Those individuals whisper some magic words, the executive makes some grand speeches about how his company is totally one of the cool kids, and the poor actual employees get sucked into another useless fad.
Then costs get too high, street creed (NASDAQ Symbol: FOMO) falls 35% or more, and layoffs come for everyone involved.
Imagine if it all could be avoided with the appropriate mix of CBD and THC. The CBD engineer makes some magic potion, the executive gets mellowed out and employees get to actually work on profit-generating activities.
Seriously, give some chemical pacifier to executives and call it something dumb like "mindfulness performance enhancer" so they can feel like big boys.
I wouldn't mind working while a suit eats 2kg of cheetos and wonders if the stars are winking at his crotch, so long as the suit stays on his fucking lane and let me do what I do best.
But that ain't ever gonna work, suits gonna suit. They will want to mess stuff up just so they can pretend their parents love them.
Thus, here we are. When actual devs have to speak nonsense and pretend that AI is real. Just so they can pocket some of that FOMO cash before the ship sinks and drags down honest working people.
We need an UBI just so that everyone in a company can jump ship as soon as a suit starts blabbering about the next big fad. I'm betting it will be VR/AR again.7 -

What about remote work? I feel this way of working is often heavily misunderstood. People think that if you work remote, you can plan your own day, work however you want and whenever you want. However, while working remote I recently experienced where there's a need for me to turn on my camera 4-6 hours a day (meetings, "quick sync", huddle, let's talk). So, 4-6 hours a day, my living room is being recorded and whenever something changes in my flat, people ask questions about it as "small talk". While I was working on apps, I was expected to use my own personal phone and was asked by my manager to share the screen. Isn't this a privacy invasion?
While working remote, I still experienced excessive micromanagement and am still pushed to work 10 hours/day quite often. My last company put me on call 24/7 without extra pay for it.
I believe working remotely gets sold as amazing and an incredible benefit, but I see little difference from being watched over my shoulders in an office building.
What are your experiences with working remotely?4 -
Ah, culture fit. It's funny that what highly determines you getting the job is how well you get along with the team in the warm-up phase (meeting the team). If in a casual conversation with the guys you already clash personalities, they will find a way to push you out.
I realized that now...8 -

So I have started looking into torrenting anime. In the past I just did it and didn't worry about it. But I have been hearing about internet carriers cracking down on this. Apparently my ISP has a tiered approach to this. They will notify and escalate all the way up to account termination. So I found that interesting. But that is not is what is most interesting. The interesting part was the AI response when I searched if my ISP will do anything:
What to do if you receive a DMCA notice:
1. Review the notice: Identify the copyrighted content in question.
2. Stop the infringing activity: Remove the infringing content from your devices and stop sharing it.
3. Consider a VPN and private trackers: This can help prevent future notices.
4. Contact CenturyLink: If you receive a notice, you may need to contact CenturyLink to confirm receipt or discuss the issue.
So with 3, the AI casually tells me how to continue breaking the law. lol2 -
Log#3, Day 13, I'm starting to create a connection with claude code, I see it struggling with the same shitty code I wrote, I see his remarks on the difficulty debuging the IOS, he is one of us.

Again, Atlassian products don't work in Firefox.
Dunno who's to blame - Atlassian or Mozilla. All I know is this sucks! Can't stand Edge and the sorts.5 -
I'm done with the black market. Now i'm ordering my weed from silk road
Bonus I can get some 2cb and have a psychedelic trip in the wood. My shitty weed deala dont even have 2cb. It's a connoisseur drug. Nobody knows about it. One time I got caught at the airport in the chemical detector and I'm pretty sure the border patrol agent knew what it was but he still let me go.8
