Stickman Hook is a perfect example of “easy to learn, hard to master. At first, you’re just happy to finish a level, but soon you start trying to complete them in the fewest swings possible, chasing that perfect run.

I'm doing a new strike technique called sneaky strike.

I'm not doing shit. Not even telling my boss I'm on strike.

Nobody tells him.

Next week, my company decided to create a new app. But they are not sure about which features they all want. So far there is only consensus on a login screen.

They also expect us to learn a new framework/language over the weekend for no extra pay.

And they want the majority of the code to be vibe coded and we don't even have an idea what features we want...

This is going to be a disaster.

Lots of touch and tech inside, lots of assisting technologies -- quite a jump from a 2005 Audi a6. You can even track your car in your phone now OOTB :) cool!

One of the most detrimental things for a developer is having a team who doesn't understand the developer and doesn't fit the developer's personality. This is often overlooked.

Management likes to try and be 'scientific' and start to micromanage, as if the cause of someone's slowness really is their technical skill. No, it's often psychological in nature. A great manager will have a one on one real talk with you. A bad manager will ask you to log every single thing you do on every single day and instead of caring for you they will immediately delegate the issue away without taking into account the psychological conflicts between employees and hidden bullying. You can't solve people problems with business processes.

What doesn't help: ignoring the issue and just softening it with "It's your first time, you will get used to it" or "You will get better at this over time". No, you won't.

One of the sure ways to let a developer spiral down into failure is to not address these kinds of issues. Don't promote a former employee to manager. I think a real manager has to have the personality and studies for it. People aren't cogs and life is not black and white. You are dealing with people. People are infinitely complex. How often they forget this.

PADUCAH - Tommy Burgess, 46, has thrown the town for a loop after tying the knot with an Iranian woman he met online while searching for “exotic hummus recipes.” The wedding took place in a quiet backyard ceremony last Saturday, though most of Tommy’s family refused to attend, citing “confusion, concern, and a general lack of understanding of geography.”
“She’s not from here, and that’s scary,” said Tommy’s Aunt Brenda, while nervously clutching a casserole. “I thought Iran was a shampoo brand until last week.”
Tommy insists his new bride, Laleh, is “the best thing that ever happened to me,” and says her cooking has already replaced every casserole he’s ever known. While some family members remain skeptical, others are slowly warming up—especially after trying her saffron rice and realizing it doesn’t bite.
This is a developing story.

I feel like the social good of tech never really came to fruition. Like my local store can probably tell I have poorly managed ADHD from my irregular shopping schedule and caffeine/sugar addiction but all they use this info for is to try to sell me more salty peanuts.

The peanuts are tasty tho ngl

How was the weekend ?

What’s a super “normal” thing in your country that would completely confuse or shock someone visiting for the first time?

Linux weirdness of yesterday. I was copying files from one file manager to another. If the managers weren't the same file manager they couldn't see each others copy and paste selections. Which is kind of odd. I am not used to copy paste being incompatible on the platforms I use. One of those managers was Dolphin and another with a generic name called Files. So I don't know if this is KDE weirdness or what. Since I transitioned from Gnome I have like 3 file managers I use because each one has different features I like. Yeah, probably not great for file copying. I just never imagined they wouldn't work together.

I love it when american from irish or german descent think they're white. You're white the way slavs are white (not really).

Sorry being white is cool kid only. There's only one kind of white person: waloons.

The rest of yee aren't pure enough.

If i make enough money, i would feed the people, probably direct them to a purpose, i am sick of the imbalance, injustice 😢

Someone should make a PewDiePie distro called Pewnix

Sigh sigh sigh

Wasting an hour reading a book with the wrong title today.
