Working is terrible. You have to do stuff and stuff. And when you're done, you have to do more stuff. It's kinda stupid huh.

So once day I just quitted with it and was like, oh, that's nice.

You should try it too!

Life update:

- Got a job. Will start in Jan. I lost my other contract in september, so it's almost 3 months of stress. I really have to find a way to diversify income. 2025 will be the year of me finding a sidegig.

- I needed a better sound to mix my album, so I went to the pawnshop and bought a NAD amplifier and 2 ITT speaker cabinet. I think the amp is from the 80ies and the speaker are from the 70. Danish.

- My deskie suffered a catastrophic harddrive damage. I could exfiltrate all the data but the bios diag is failing so I will go buy another one

Merry christmas

I am enthusiastically waiting for Friday to come around these days.

I don't know if my life's heading in the right direction.

One of my minions gave his 2 weeks notice. They grow up so fast 🥲

Has anyone ever...
well, never mind... me neither...

Forget I said something.

Should I order a McDonald’s happy meal at 1 am?

Writing user documentation is still such a boring part of the job :((

Holy hell, aoc day 9 part 2 is diabolical!
Has anyone solved it and can give me a hint (not the solution)?

The naive approach would be to make an array with 100000^2 elements, or an image with that many pixels, but that's just too large.
There must be a smarter way.

Vanity of vanities. All is vanity.

AI flagged the Declaration of Independence as being 99.9% AI generated.

Well, the crown considers the writers to be Actual Insurrectionists. So technically correct.

Also noticed people on linkedin have less humor than on reddit, if at all possible.

Hello guys, Christmas is coming

I made a real-time chat for devRant.

Please check and tell how much it sucks

DARPA unleashed the deadliest bioweapon and psyop since the bubonic plague.
COVID-19 and the vaccines that destroy healthy immune systems.
The majority of people don't notice?

What happened after the 2020 vaccine rollout:
- The RCMP and goverment lie about a trucker protest against the vaccine being dangerous and carrying weapons in their trucks. CSIS testified in court that there was no evidence. RCMP had no evidence.
- The CDC and media backpedal and says "We never said the vaccine was safe and effective" as people die in their sleep, or hiking from heart attacks.
- Prices soared and the majority of people cannot afford quality meat and food
- Bovaer: a super toxic chemical they put in cow feed that causes infertility of breathed in by humans
- Apeel: Apeel is an edible, plant-based coating developed by ‘Apeel Sciences’, a California-based company founded in 2012. It’s made from monoglycerides and diglycerides—fatty acids derived from plant sources like grapeseed oil, soy, or other seeds.
- Health Canada has approved the sale of animal-free milk protein, which is produced using a genetically modified yeast strain, marking a significant step in alternative protein options in Canada. This approval allows for the development of various products like cheese and yogurt that mimic traditional dairy without using animals.

What else am I missing? How many CIA/DARPA bots on this site will instantly respond to discredit my view? The same thing that happens on reddit?

Help me out, am I right wing or left wing?

- I am okay with closed borders and throwing people out who are here illegally.
- I am even okay with open borders and letting everyone in who wants to come.
- I am not okay with dozens over dozens of ways of staying in a country and becoming a citizen after arriving illegally which are just a backdoors, so that we can still claim that we don't have open borders while they are defacto open.

if they say jump,
don't ask how high: that's insubordination

this website has like, connections to AlpineJS, jQuery, 3 different web font providers, calling some WordPress theme CSS from another website, uses TailwindCSS v2, inline styles, the fuckin head tag's content is almost 400 lines of fuckin code.

I can't help but laugh and feel sorry for the poor soul who had to build this. Was clearly in over his head.

Just submitted my first bounty PR. Waited 3+ weeks to hear anything back from maintainers.

Jumped in their discord and politely asked for a review.

Maintainers said, "tomorrow".

Thank them for their time

Waited an extra 3 days, asked again. Maintainers ignore me in Discord but happily tend to everyone else's PR

Get tired of waiting, being ghosted

Close PR
Delete branch
Leave comment saying "haven't heard anything, deleting this and taking it with me"
Leave discord

Don't waste time on people who won't give a moment of theirs

My colleagues are really addicted to Pokémon. They took their lunch break at 10:00 to go to shop because the pokémon cards are restocked today at 10:00. Now half of the team eats their lunch while working cuz their lunch break is already used lol

Also, the company doesn't even measure the breaks. They usually take multiple smoke breaks totalling over 1h each day. Nobody complains about that. Idk why they suddenly care about the duration of their lunch break

yay, the deadline has been pushed back to an undefined time next year. Senior dev admitted that his approach is wrong and we will work on documentation & set clear expectations with the shareholders & define what endpoints the project needs... Literally those things I did warn him about and he ignored previously.

The stress is now a lot lower, sadly still a lot of stress from my private life :[

My senior dev pushed the backend on lab finally. It's even worse than expected.

- No documentation
- 1 query that retrieves data
- the one query is not even usable in our application without changes
- the total of 1 record that is able to fetched
- somehow misses queries he demo'ed in a meeting more than a month ago

2025/6 is the year contrast dies.

Apple, obviously, with liquid glass (AKA, "I can't see what's on top or bottom!")

But now also, trying out Visual Studio 26, everything is just a slightly different shade of gray.

Won't anyone think of the clarity?! We have reached the point where we are so biased towards form over function, that our form is no longer functional! Bring back contrasting shades of colors in UI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seen it done wrong so many times makes me wonder what it may look like if done right. What are your thoughts on "micro-services" and maybe specifically "AWS Lambdas"?

Tired of vertical scroll websites.

I wish wish I was in spain growing weed and chilling in my tipi

I don't know what's wrong with me.

Whenever I interview, it takes me almost 3/4 of the allotted time to grasp the problem. I don't know if it's because I am truly dyslexic, or if I'm really bad under stress / time constraint.

After the interview I was able to finish the problem within 10 minutes, but by then it's just too late.

Can't help but feel like a bad about it.

An app/website that I co-created had a devastating launch and was rolled back before me and another coworker went on vacation.
To my surprise it was force-relaunched by upper management and bug-fixed on the go by another coworker, who was also involved. Props to him for dealing with the errors, as I wasn't contacted once.

"can i get a curry goat rice and peas"
lmfao. trying not to laugh.

Podman or Docker, and why?

What the fuck is happening in 2025 where half the websites can't keep the session open?

How is it "good security practice" to require me to login every few hours?

Shit like this makes me think software has plateaued. If devs can't make a fucking session work in the big 2025, then there's no hope.
