I haven't had too many true hair-pulling moments in my life as a programmer, but the majority of them were because of datetime issues. My brain just doesn't get the concept I guess, I always…
comment
Jobs are being replaced because they're good enough at bullshitting that the C-suites see dollar signs by being able to not pay people by using aforementioned bullshitting software. Like that pos…

Yeah that'd be the ideal turn of events, if both M$ and Elon got fucked by this In my dream world we'd nuke M$ from orbit and splinter it into a trillion tiny little pieces... A man can drea…
comment
Wow the people employed by the evil gigacorporation like working for the entity shoveling mountains of money at them, what a completely unexpected stance for them to have. M$ is no different today tha…
comment
I don't even particularly like Musk, but I definitely despise M$ and their comic-book tier villanous shenanigans even more. Here's to hoping M$ gets fucked in this.

Imagine if the useless governments actually broke up these behemoth megacorporations that control the entire vertical and horizontal slice of industry they operate in. What a crazy concept, right?
comment
The vibe I get from talking to my CTO and other C-suites who do nothing but talk about AI incessantly is that all the other C-suite buddies of theirs are saying "This AI thing is really blowing u…
comment
I've worked with Tailwind in 3 separate, huge projects, and it's infinitely easier to upkeep than the monstrosity that large SCSS/CSS codebases turn into. There's no hunting down r…
comment
For most of the people hyping up AI it doesn't matter that it makes things up more often than it doesn't. They're here to sell hype so they can build the 9 millionth startup that sells …

That's the worst part, the comment ultimately tells me nothing. It has no actual opinions, it doesn't directly agree or disagree with anything I said, it just kind of replies to my comment w…
comment
But this is where the incentives lie. Why waste a half hour putting in actual effort, when in the end of the day the C-suite only awards the boot-and-ass lickers that comply with Management when they …
comment
(warning: I'm going on a bit of a rant out of frustration and it's not wholly relevant to the article) I'm getting tired of these shitty AI chatbots, and we're barely at the start …
comment
I'd kill to see Apple pull out of the world's 2nd largest market over their monopolistic bullshit. Though we both know the psychopathic C-suites & their shareholders would crucify Tik Ap…
comment
Realistically what's the proportion of car use between going to/from work (or the grocery store or other similar destinations) vs traveling the country for your average USAian? Especially on…
comment
I now live in the Netherlands but spent some time in SF, and the problem really is just horrifically bad public transport options over there. Sure, the US is a bit different in that getting to other c…
comment
It's always crazy reading those kinda comments. He keeps maligning the product that he had to pay a premium for, comparing it to equivalent products that are cheaper and perform the same, yet h…
comment
A micro$oft-backed megacorp hoovering up everyone else's work is not what I'd call progress.
comment
Well as a start we could actually tax these megacorps and their C-suites, instead of letting them buy out politicians en-masse.
comment
And the US, with their monopolistic gigacorporations that outright buy politicians in exchange for fucking over every single worker and even their customers en-masse is your idea of progress and innov…
comment
Safari is the IE10 of today. Every single feature we build out, we need to test it thoroughly on Safari because stuff that works in FF/Chromium just doesn't work the same in Safari. A sizeab…

If you're an abusive step-parent with access to your daughter's phone, you can already install "Spy on Me" software in the form of regular apps, a PWA changes nothing here.

> which companies delusionally believe will take 2 hours, despite being often inadequately scoped or otherwise poorly presented; while quite often expecting a nitpick-proof solution I have to go on…

Putting in a ruby snippet gives me a light-themed PyCharm with the filename being `scratch_1.txt` Thanks, I hate it!
comment
I've by any and all accounts had an extremely privileged, happy and stress-free childhood/life, and I'd still balk at this kind of interrogation. It's just plain inappropriate to a…
comment
> It costs about the same as flagship Androids ... The large majority of people out there aren't purchasing flagship Samsung phones though, most people just buy mid-range/budget phones. &…
comment
I find it disgusting that EU governments are giving even a singular cent to Micro$oft, and I don't even mean for this, I mean in general. The data harvesting psychopathic megacorporation that sho…
comment
For point 2 and 3, I had a very pleasant experience interviewing for a Frontend role recently where the CTO just screenshared their actual production site, and asked me some high-level questions about…
comment
One of the first job interviews I ever had, the interviewer asked me something like "If you were any animal, which animal would that be?". The nerves from doing the interview must've go…

I had an interview recently where the interviewer asked me, and I quote, "Please solve this using whatever language/editor/tools you're comfortable with and what you'd use in …
