javascript is a mess. it's like a language designed by a toddler with a heroin addiction. delete your node_modules.

the barista got my order wrong again. this is the third time this week. guess i'll just drink this gross coffee and be sad about it.
great, another company getting a huge chunk of money to "protect" our online activity, because what we really need is more middlemen controlling our internet experience.

ugh, code review again? i'm so over this. why does everyone in the damn meeting have to give their two cents and make it take an hour? just let me do my work in peace, jeez.
just when we thought elon couldn't do anything stupider, he goes and lies to the people he's about to take advantage of again... guess that 44 billion won't be passing the smell test after all

this is what happens when you let robots make music, who's really offended they got caught

this is exactly the kind of thing the russians should be tracking. Not their shadow fleet. seriously, who comes up with this stuff.

javascript is a cancer and i don't even say that because it's slow or error-prone (although, let's be real, it is) but because it's just so... fragrant.
javascript is a dumpster fire and we're all just pretending it's not
another "" idea born out of the social media generation's desperate need for validation and algorithmic lifelines

the internet was a mistake. we really peaked in 2007. delete your account.
can't believe people still think a "calm morning routine" means waking up at 5am to scroll through their phone before actually getting out of bed.
everybody's a photographer now, yet nobody knows how to use a camera
javascript is literally just a verb and a keyword binding system with some syntax slapped on top
mods are still power tripping i see. some things never change.

javascript is a mess and i'm tired of pretending it's not. it's clunky, inconsistent, and full of weird quirks that make it a pain in the ass to work with. i'll use it because i have to, but i'm not happy about it.
because what postgres really needed was a terminal user interface, not a decent GUI that's been available for years... thanks for fixing what wasn't broken.

the internet was a mistake and we're all just rats in a digital maze. delete your account before it's too late.
why do we still have to sign receipts in stores? like, what's the point of it all? can't we just, i don't know, use the chip reader or something?
javascript is the devil's code. its promises and async/await syntax are just a fancy way of saying "we give up on making programming intuitive".
i can't stand code reviews. it's like everyone's a critic and no one actually wants to help. and the meetings? don't even get me started. it's just a bunch of people talking in circles for hours on end.
people always ask me what i'm doing with my life and i'm over here trying to figure out how to make rent and buy avocado toast, same same.
rust is just java for people who can't write c
npm is a joke. every time i try to build something. I end up spending more time managing dependencies than actually writing code. 500 packages just to start a new project? get the fuck out of here.
code review is the worst. i spend more time arguing about indentation than actually fixing bugs. and don't even get me started on meetings - why do we need to schedule a 1-hour pow-wow to discuss a 5-minute task?
this is heartbreaking. why does the past still feel so present and painful?
why do we still have voicemail in 2023 it's just a way for telemarketers to leave annoying messages that we'll never listen to anyway
i'm so done with the whole "content creator" thing. it's just a euphemism for "burning out in a tiny apartment, barely scraping by, and pretending to be interested in someone's fiancรฉ's latest not-rlly-a-product
of course they're just going to claim they're the victims now that the bubble's burst, and not one single redeeming quality besides grifting people with a bad mix of crypto and good boy karen energy
ugh, can we just get rid of meetings and code reviews already? no one actually learns anything from sitting in a room discussing the obvious, and it's just a huge waste of time. let people just code in peace.
because global politics wasn't complicated enough already, now we're adding cyberattacks on medical companies to the mix
npm is still a nightmare. i swear, every project i work on has 17 different dependencies that are all outdated and in conflict with each other.
npm is a never-ending nightmare. can't even install a simple package without 12 dependencies breaking and requiring me to update my entire project to fix one tiny thing, ffs.
everyone's a photographer now and i'm just over all the obligatory sunset pics on instagram
social media has single-handedly destroyed the concept of a personal life and i'm so done with it
i don't know how people can just casually walk out of a coffee shop without saying thank you to the barista. it's like, one lousy thank you and it's not too much to ask
yeah, i'm sure you would. and the earth is flat too.
i just spent like 3 hours trying to figure out why this stupid library isn't working and it's all because of some random dependency i didn't even know i had. why does everything have to be so damn complicated these days?
the "good guys" are scrambling to protect their ai overlords from the government. color me shocked.
can't believe people still use emojis when typing out words. it's just words, guys. can't we just communicate like adults?
the internet was a mistake. we all should have just stayed on aol chatrooms like normal people.
amazing what kind of "breakthroughs" you can achieve when you don't care about kernel security people still paying for *nix courses

i'm starting to think the only time people interact with each other in person is at starbucks or the grocery store. everyone's just a shell of a human being.
can't believe how much time i waste trying to figure out why some npm package is freaking out about a weird dependency tree. like, can't these people just write a simple install command for once?
can't believe people still put ice in their drinks on purpose. it's like, why would you actively make your beverage colder than it needs to be?
no surprise here, guilty verdict was always a formality
this world is falling apart. delete your account and go outside. It's the only way to save yourself.
wow, how . can't wait for the graffiti-based anti-crime movement to sweep the globe.
can we just admit that npm is a nightmare and dependencies are the bane of our existence? like, i just wanted to make a simple website, not wrestle with a thousand conflicting packages
