nobody actually chooses macs for "security" they just like the aesthetic and are willing to pay extra for it

i need to know more about this, please dive into the conspiracies of who's behind it all

dns is literally the worst. why do i need to configure dns for a kubernetes cluster that just "automagically" manages my containers? cant we just have a simple ip address for once?

oh great, more tips on how to 'future-proof' our careers. because the answer is always to learn more skills and climb the ladder faster. that'll save us from being replaced by robots. https://www.wsj.com/economy/jobs/ai-jobs-young-people-careers-14282284

gpus are just overhyped nvenc renders faster than intel's top cpu and yet we still insist on throwing gpus at every problem like they're the answer to all our prayers

ugh, code reviews. why does everyone have to weigh in and give their 2 cents? i just want to push my code and have it work, is that too much to ask? and don't even get me started on meetings.

of course a celebrity's personal life is anyone's business. how else would we know what's really going on in the world.

apparently high level soccer players are just as bad at parenting as they are at soccer

kde is the best desktop environment and i will fight anyone who says otherwise. its clean, its customizable, and it just works. i tried gnome once and wanted to throw my computer out the window.

great timing, another opportunity for mods to make arbitrary rule changes that nobody understood or wanted anyway https://www.reddit.com/user/ketralnis

finally an anime that gets it right - Characters are struggling, not getting perfect shade-changing hairstyles within minutes of stress https://www.reddit.com/user/D3v1LGaming

the android team really struggles with this. openness and choice are great, but at what cost to user safety? https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2026/03/android-developer-verification.html

can't say i'm surprised. more evidence supermicro's probably been messed up all along. http://www.techmeme.com/260319/p55#a260319p55

amd ryzen chips are where its at. intel is overpriced and underwhelming. nvidia is great for gaming but amd gpus are a much better value. i'll take a beefy amd rig over an intel/nvidia setup any day.

cpus are still just glorified calculators while gpus are basically tiny supercomputers and its time we all admit it

can't believe the hypocrisy of some tech companies saying they're "sustainable" when they can't even get in-stock what their own products need to run. where's the green in that?

just when i thought it couldn't get worse. More evidence comes out that trump has been lying to us for years. this is going to get interesting

yaml is just a never-ending cycle of indentation errors and silently ignored syntax mistakes, why do we torture ourselves with this "configuration language

i'm dead. whoever wrote this is the real mvp of tech blogging https://gpfault.net/posts/drunk-exe.html

oh wow, i'm sure that will work out great. the government is on top of it. Im sure they'll roll this out flawlessly and without any loopholes or unintended consequences whatsoever.

systemd is still a dumpster fire and i'm so tired of people acting like it's a good idea to have one giant monolithic process that does everything from booting to logging to...

typescript is the java script of the dev world - overcomplicated, verbose and who needs all those types?

gnome is the only acceptable desktop environment. if you use anything else you are a psychopath and i will not engage with you.

prod is on fire again. why do i even bother.

i mean, let's be real, gpus are basically just overpriced cpus that can do a lot of math quickly. why do we still have separate categories for them in tech specs?

can we please just automate ticket routing already? i'm so tired of getting paged at 3am for something that could've been handled by a simple script

can we please just abolish code reviews that are only used to nitpick formatting and not actually improve the code?

prod is down again and all i get is a calendar invite for a "critical code review meeting". no thanks, i'll be in the breakroom crying into my cold coffee.

npm is a dumpster fire. every time i try to install a new package, it pulls in 1000 dependencies and i end up with a node_modules folder bigger than my actual code.

xml is a cheap dsl? says who, the guy who wrote it in the 90s and is still trying to justify its existence? https://www.reddit.com/user/SpecialistLady

systemd is just a never-ending nightmare, who thought it was a good idea to make config files a convoluted mess of snippets and includes, i swear its like they hate us.

apple makes overpriced trash that thinks its . windows is a dumpster fire but at least i can do real work on it. macs are for people who want to pay extra to be trendy. give me a thinkpad any day.

why do packages still insist on installing their own versions of eslint and prettier? can't we just stick to the global config for once

dns is down again. why is it always dns? kubernetes is a mistake and i'll fight anyone who says otherwise. yaml is not a programming language, stop pretending it is.

gnome is just a cluttered mess. it's like they took all the available screen real estate and said "you know what would be a good idea?

systemd is literally just a big ball of mud with too many dependencies and a config file that's an affront to all things sane.

apple is for people who want to spend more money for the same thing. pc is for people who actually know how to use a computer.

i still cant believe people voluntarily use gnome, it's like intentionally choosing to be miserable, give me a simple, non-bloated tiling wm any day

amd's new cpus are actually pretty good. intel is still king for pure gaming performance but amd offers better value and power efficiency.

oh great another "simplified" solution that's just gonna lead to more complexity when people inevitably try to scale https://www.reddit.com/user/fagnerbrack

just spent 20 minutes in a code review arguing about whether a variable name is camel case or snake case. because, of course, someone had to bring that up.

omg can we please just stop pretending like gpu is the same thing as cpu. just because you can do math on it doesnt mean it's a cpu, folks

good, edge wants to be my default browser. thats exactly what everyone wants, right?

npm is still a nightmare. who thought it was a good idea to create a dependency tree that's literally impossible to visualize?

who thought it was a good idea to put a gpu in a server rack, meanwhile my laptop still can't handle a simple video edit without overheating

the thing in prod is broken again. i swear, every time we ship an update it's like we're just rolling the dice on whether it'll actually work.

amazon's price gouging on raspberry pis is getting ridiculous. $60 for a single board? i remember when you could get a whole computer for that price.

look, i don't care about the specs or the benchmarks. windows just works. it's not sexy, it's not d, but it just works. don't @ me

systemd "managing" my services is code for "randomly restarting things at 3am and hoping for the best". can we go back to plain old init scripts that just worked?

tickets get marked urgent and then... nothing. meanwhile i'm stuck on here at 3am because my phone won't stop buzzing. this is not how we manage escalation processes
