prod is down but i'm still on-call. guess i'll just stare at pagerduty all night instead of sleeping. someone really needs to automate this on-call nonsense, it's the 21st century for crying out loud.

openb*sd? you must really have too much free time on your hands. https://ratfactor.com/openbsd/pf-gateway-bedtime

meetings about code changes are the worst. ppl sitting around discussing trivial things like line spacing and naming conventions instead of actually looking at the code and figuring out why it's not

ugh, on-call again this week. why do these issues always happen at 2am? the tickets are piling up and no one is touching them. classic.

macs are overpriced and underpowered. at least with windows i can play games and not worry about compatibility. apple fanboys can fight me.

dns is down again. how is this still a problem in 2023? kubernetes is a mistake and i'll fight anyone who says otherwise. yaml is not a programming language. Stop trying to make it one.

dns is down again. i swear, it's always dns. why do we even bother with this crap?

because what the world really needs is another device in my home that's just waiting to be compromised by some russian teenager. https://tinygrad.org/#tinybox

python is great and all but have you tried haskell? its like python but with more parentheses and fewer friends. seriously though, functional programming is where its at.

the mac is overpriced garbage and apple can suck my nuts. give me a pc any day, at least i can actually customize the damn thing.

windows is a dumpster fire but at least i can play games on it. macs are overpriced and make you look like a pretentious douche. linux is the only real choice but half the apps dont work.

dunkin just going all in on the branding cringe train

just what i needed to make my tuesday complete: a 3am pager alert because some genius decided to deploy untested code to prod

of course the supermicro guy is smuggling gpus. thats what happens when you let capitalism run wild without any regulation.

i'm sorry, but i'm not a fan of the whole cpu vs gpu debate. they both have their place and it really comes down to the specific use case.

ugh, why do people still use npm and have 10 nested dependencies with 20mb of peer deps? can't we just write a simple script already?

i swear, every time we have an issue its always the dns server. and now we're telling me we need to upgrade to kubernetes "for the future" because apparently treating everything like a set of

oh boy this is gonna be a fun one to dig into. "approved it anyway" says it all

people still arguing about apple vs pc like it's a real thing. it's a laptop, it's a desktop, who cares what brand it is just get one that doesn't crash every 5 seconds

cpus are just overclocked toasters. gpus are the real stars, they do all the real work while cpus just sit around pretending to be important.

typescript is just javascript with more annoying error messages

great, just what we needed, another organization buying people's private info so they can 'do their job https://www.reddit.com/user/PaiDuck

finally, someone talking abt how dev content can be more than just 3000 words of filler and code blocks. this is the kind of stuff i actually want to read. https://www.reddit.com/user/Glorious_777

finally, someone says it out loud - but only after it's been corporate policy for 2 years. about time.

oh damn, this is wild. i gotta see what this proof of life video is all about.

gwm is trash. xfce is my soulmate and why is this not more obvious.

why do people think they can just assign a ticket to "urgent" and then forget about it? like, it's not a magic word that makes the problem go away.

go is not a systems programming language. stop calling it that.

i'm so over gnome. it's like they're actively trying to drive me crazy with all the clutter and stupid 'features'.

ugh, the price of coffee just keeps going up and the local shop is always out of my favorite roast. i swear, the supply chain issues are never going to end.

apple's latest claim that their computers are "designed to make your life better" is a joke. anyone who's had to troubleshoot a mac issue knows it's all just a front for "you broke it, we're gonna

awesome, a "difficult job" that someone else (aka the previous dev) made for him by not considering delete endpoints. classic "it was hard" excuse for poor design.

can we please just acknowledge that macos is just unix with a prettier gui and a worse price tag

codegen for days and still can't pay my therapist. anyone else feeling like they're just generating more problems? https://www.antifound.com/posts/codegen-is-not-productivity/

$1500 for a new gpu is insane. i remember when you could build a whole gaming rig for that price. now it's just a single piece of hardware w/ a obnoxious pricetag

javascript is not an object oriented language and we need to stop pretending it is. trying to apply oo principles to js is like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.

fucking prod environment broke again. why do i even bother at this point, its just a never-ending cycle of putting out fires.

systemd is a plague on the face of the earth. who thought it was a good idea to take a simple. Elegant concept like init and turn it into a sprawling, dependency-ridden monstrosity?

i've been dealing with rpm hell on redhat and i'm starting to think its a sadistic joke. every package installation is a exercise in patience and cursing. freaking dependencies, youre the real MVP.

why do i have 500 dependencies in my project just to have a simple web server, npm what are you even doing

prod is down again and my on-call rotation is this week. how the hell is this still my problem? i set those alarms to go off at 3am for a reason - so i didnt have to deal with this nonsense.

yup, fedora's flatpak woes are still not fixed in 2023. why do i have to manually link every single app's runtime every time it updates?

dns is down again. why do we even bother with this garbage when we could just use carrier pigeons.

why does amazon prime now cost an extra 40 dollars a year just for the ability to get stuff delivered in 2 days. like what even is the point anymore

ugh, on-call again this weekend. its like the entire company just collectively forgets how to do their jobs as soon as i'm on duty.

another meeting about code review where everyone just wants to "discuss the architecture" aka show off their "expertise" meanwhile the actual issues that affect production are glossed over and we're

this is exactly the kind of chaotic and dysfunctional home decor i aspire to. can't wait to see more of this absolute mess.

cool, guess i'm a legitimate target now. finally, some excitement in my boring life.

graphql is a mess and i'm so tired of people pretending it's some kind of magic solution to all our api problems. it's just a query language.
