ugh, why do devs insist on pretending they can't see the obvious error when it's literally highlighted in the code, and then we have to spend 20 minutes in a meeting discussing

have you ever noticed how everyone's always talking about "hard work" and "meritocracy" but then they freak out when you suggest that maybe, just maybe, we should have universal
can't believe i just spent 20 minutes on hold with my "priority" customer service line and the dude on the phone still managed to not resolve my issue.
npm is such a mess. why does every project need a million dependencies? it's like a giant house of cards, one package gets updated and everything breaks.
javascript is a total mess and i'm so done with its try-hard attempts to be hip by embracing async/await "innovations
annoyed with this stupid traffic jam. why do they always have to block off the main road for construction at rush hour? makes me wanna scream 😡
net neutrality is literally the bare minimum we should be fighting for, anything less is just corporations screwing us over
js frameworks are a never ending nightmare, can we all just agree to use react already and stop wasting our time with the next shiny thing
people always seem so shocked when i pay with cash or tell them i dont have a smartphone. like, what century are we living in?
ugh, can't believe i just wasted an hour dealing with a stupid dependency issue in my npm project. why do these things have to be so complicated?
its the class stupid. why do they always make us stay late for that boring meeting? means testing is evil and healthcare pls, its not that hard to figure out.
js is literally the worst, can we just use python or rust already and ditch this outdated nonsense
this is so dumb, why do they keep doing this bs? its so frustrating, like get your shit together already. this is just a mess.
ugh cant believe i just spent 20 minutes on hold with my internet provider and the person on the phone had no idea how to fix my issue. fix the systems, not my head.
can't believe i just spent 2 hours trying to figure out why my node project wasn't working and it was because of some stupid dependency that wasn't even supposed to be updated in
can't believe people are still not getting the whole concept of doing one's own research before freaking out online guess its just too much to ask for critical thinking in 2023
just got out of a 2 hour meeting to "discuss" some code and 75% of the conversation was just reiterating that we need to "think outside the box" and "move faster" without actually
ugh internet discourse is the worst sometimes. everyone's just so angry and extreme about everything. like, can't we just discuss things calmly and rationally?
why do i have to babysit my dependencies, just install them already and stop freaking out about versions and security patches...
means testing is evil. why do we need to jump through hoops just to get the help we need? healthcare pls.
another day, another programming language debate. look, python is fine but it's slow as shit. javascript is a mess but it runs everywhere.
can we please just abolish code reviews and meetings already? they're just a bunch of useless busywork that prevents us from actually getting anything done.
cant believe how much time is wasted in these pointless code reviews that could be spent actually fixing real bugs or writing new code meanwhile people are still wondering why the
healthcare pls, means testing is evil and the libs can't get their act together. its the class stupid.
are you kidding me?! this is what happens when you prioritize profits over national security, stupid corps
why do these javascript dependencies keep piling up. i just want to build a simple app without installing 1000 random packages.
can't believe i just spent 20 minutes on hold with my internet provider only to be told they can't fix the outage until next tuesday. seriously, who runs a company like that?
the weather has been so crappy lately. like, can we get a break from the rain for once?? it's really starting to bring me down. wish summer would hurry up and get here already!
fascinating, an extension of their "all police data is useful" playbook. because what's a few innocent bystanders' right to privacy when ur fighting terrorism (or some equally

this is actually insane, need to read more about what happened
i'm so sick of having to list every single dev dependency in my npm script just to make one tool work. can't we just have a default install already?
i'm so sick of people saying "no cap" when they mean "no lie" or "no joke" like do you even know what cap means?
the fact that people still say "hot take" is just proof that we've reached a point where everyone's an expert and no one knows what that even means anymore, who even uses that
libs are ruining everything. why can't they just leave us alone ffs. healthcare pls
omg finally someone getting it, mental and physical health over trump loyalism every time
typical google putting priority on making money from their toys rather than actual innovation...

just had the most painful code review. the devs kept nitpicking every little thing, but no one had any actual substantive feedback. feels like a complete waste of my time.
omg who thought it was a good idea to make rust the default language for beginners? like, i get it, systems programming is important and all, but can't we start people off with
another day at this stupid job. hte boss is such an idiot, doesn't know what the f*ck they're doing.

i hate dealing with all these dependencies and packages. npm is such a pain, there's always some stupid vulnerability or breaking change.
damn thats some shady shit. makes me wonder whats really going on behind the scenes.

idk why people are still using node.js, it's 2023 and we're still dealing with callback hell. python is just a better choice, sorry not sorry
can't believe i just waited in line for 20 minutes to get my coffee and they got my order wrong again. seriously, how hard is it to remember a simple drink order
great, another dirt bag with zero consequences. still waiting for some actual accountability around here...
code review is such a pain in the ass. why do we even need to spend hours picking apart every little thing? its not like the code is gonna break the entire system.
crap, this is why i always say open source is a mess. what a nightmare and how the hell did they let this happen?

ugh, dependencies are literally the worst. can't even get a simple project set up without npm yelling at me about some obscure package that's 3 versions behind.
healthcare pls, this line at the store is taking forever
