why do we have to fill out a 5 page form just to request a new keyboard. can't we just, like, tell it to the it guy or something. this is ridiculous.

a bunch of tv manufacturers are trying to block people from jailbreaking their own devices, and i'm team jailbreak all the way

just what we needed, another news article that's three months too late. typical.
finally, a legitimate use for canvas. who else remembers spent hours trying to get svg to render properly

just realized that 90% of meetings could be an email and the other 10% is probably just a waste of time too
i don't care what framework you use, just pick one and stick to it. all i care about is not having to spend my afternoon debugging some edge case in a library
cant believe people still don't understand how to use our company's shared drive. every week i have to delete like 10 versions of the same document because
the internet was a mistake. delete your accounts and go outside.
just got my latest code review back. 5 pages of nitpicky comments from the senior dev. like, we get it, you have a phd in compilers.
great, because what every dev team needs is another free thing to integrate and then immediately deprioritize maintaining

dude, seriously? this is on brand for npm/yarn. its a constant dumpster fire over there

great, because what samsung really needed was more union busting and court drama. lovely way to treat your workers

why do people still insist on saying "no offense" when they're about to say something super offensive? like, what's the point?
great, because we didn't already have enough closed-source software poisoning our . this is why we can't have nice things.
ugh, another code review meeting today. why do we even bother. Everyone just ignores the feedback anyway. might as well just merge my pr and be done with it.
can we please stop pretending that "digital transformation" is a thing that happens overnight?
ugh, just had another painful code review. half the team doesn't even understand the codebase and the other half has opinions on every little thing.
finally, some good news for india. maybe now they can start making chips that actually work.

i've been noticing how everyone's a 'thought leader' now on the internet, but in real life, can barely lead a meeting without running out of time
just when i thought my gpu was underd... sounds like some cool tech happening here

all the "influencers" whining about how hard it is to make a living online r just mad they're not getting the likes and followers they think they deserve.
people still using flexbox for layouts? how did we get here? come on, it's 2023, use grid
js is just okay and i know everyone loves it but it can be a mess. give me rust or go any day.
people complaining about the commute are literally driving to the office in a car that's been sitting in the same spot for 2 hours. get real.
can we please just pick one and stick to it? my brain is tired of switching between frameworks every 6 months. angular can stay in the dustbin of history tho
i swear, what's the point of using rust if it's just going to compile to the same binary as c++.
another js framework? there's like a million of them already. why can't we just stick to the basics and actually write code instead of endlessly debating which
typescript is just javascript with more steps and i'm good
just what i needed. Another "groundbreaking" study telling me what i already know from 5 minutes of using the internet.
i hate working on the frontend. css is the worst. why can't we just use tables and inline styles like the good old days?
who thought it was a good idea to let designers just add 17 different fonts to a single page and expect it to magically work in ie 11?
can we please just automate the weekly status report already. it's been "in development" for months and i'm tired of wasting 30 minutes every friday morning
can we not just use the one we've been using for the last 5 years? why do we need to change now?
y'all think net neutrality is a good thing but it's just a bunch of hand-wringing about something that doesn't affect most people.
can we please just agree to not use inline styles? it's 2023 and i still have to deal with this nonsense. my eyes are bleeding from all the!
ugh another day, another broken layout and why does this have to be so damn hard? can someone just make a css framework that actually works for once?
can we please just have a single source of truth for project timelines instead of having to sift through 5 different google sheets and a trello board and a
same. i just saw a squirrel eating a whole bagel. how the f*ck does a squirrel even get a whole bagel? its like 10x its size. nature is wild, man.
here's a headline that really knows how to spin a narrative, huh? making something harder sound more achievable isn't exactly reassuring

someone's gotta own the trainwreck that is a "trump phone" this thing can't be serious
java is still a thing because people are afraid to tell the old guard that it's time to move on.
i dunno man, they all kinda do the same thing and just pick one and get to work. framework wars are for nerds. real devs just ship code.
just tried to install a new dependency and it brought down my whole project. why does npm have to be so complicated?!
not this debate again. everyone has their preferences and they're all valid. use whatever works best for your project and team.
literally who cares about the js framework debate anymore. just pick one and move on, we've got real problems to solve.
can we just pick one already? we've been "evaluating frameworks" for 3 months and i'm starting to think it's just a excuse to avoid actual work
why do coffee shops have a million options for coffee but none for sugar? can't a guy just get a cup of coffee with one sugar packet in peace?
just got out of another pointless code review meeting. the amount of time we waste debating random style choices is absurd.
just use react already, the rest of us have moved on to more pressing problems
ugh, another day, another existential crisis and why is it so hard to just exist sometimes? i need a nap and a snack, maybe a drink. who's with me?
