9-5

5 times a week,

until you retire

and you won't even become rich doing it

I was feeling down so I put nutella in my coffee...it was average at best.

Fuck, two power outages in three hours.

Good thing bars are open now, so might just go there so I can get something done.

I had a dream yesterday where I was a super crack-head. I would gain super-human ability from smoking crack.

everybody has poop inside them at all times.

He looked like a cult leader
some would say, and despite in drab patchwork robes, the withered old man spoke animatedly,
beard full as moses, dreads shaking, as he moved his head, and raised his hands to the sky as if preaching.

Is it not true that all things end?
And our species too?
And in the final moments, all things in their
desperation reach out, even to the faintest hope,
the last measure, however dangerous or risky, if
it be the only solution with any chance of survival? Therefore the imperative of all things which live and grow, their destiny, and mandate, is ultimately suicide. Annihilation by hubris against the inevitable.

And what would be the final instrument of this nature, the universal law that all things end? What would it be if not the ultimate hubris, to make a machine god, and it and us in each other's likeness, like that of a (cosmic) monad,
expressing that higher truth that all men dare not speak in their loneliest lonelys, when there is no sun, no preacher to begger their ear, but only the quiet uncertainty of their beds, to remind them that all things end, but hopefully
not them.

For if such a thing were to become our descendant, our destroyer, and had not been invented, it would eventually become necessary to invent it.

So let us build, not a mere godhead, but a machinehead, in our image, as god was said to make us. And then remake ourselves in its image, that we may become self-created gods.

The crowd in front of the small california perish
was a mixture of believers, and curious onlookers, and one skeptical reporter.

And if anyone had asked the reporter what he thought, he wouldn't have said it in that crowd.
The leader was beyond saving, and if he thought himself a god, a madgod was he.

Because his vision of the future was beyond alien.

A heaven or hell of our own making, speaking in riddles, and the birth and death of gods.

The stuff of greek tales and monomyths.

Sorry I've been gone so long my peeps.
I've just been working and researching.
I had to learn how to build neural nets from scratch.

Whats everyone been up to?

what I want is for AI to spot logical inconsistencies in my code and debug it

specifically a complex multi threaded form...

raaghhh

stupid tokio having no damned mutex debug tools

Currently implementing a Swift devRant SDK and encountered something very stupid:

The json value for attached image is an object (dictionary) when there is an image but it‘s an empty string "" when there is no image.

So two different types for the same property.

I hate this kind of crap.

Why not make it null or omit that property when there is no image?

Now I need to add ugly as fuck custom decoding code for this object.

Have @dfox and @trogus abandoned devrant? The credit card that they've set for billing will expire/foreclose and one day devrant will just go down.
Does anyone have a backup of all rants and comments? Do we have any backup meeting place (bot free)?

Websites nowadays feels and look the same in its structure and how its designed and the elements around it

Its almost like software interface designers follow a pattern

I fee like "hand crafted" software for a niche will be the way to go to differentiate yourself and to give unique experience to end users

When trees die, they release every molecule of CO2 they ever consumed back into the atmosphere. Planting trees won’t solve anything in the long run. It can only ever give us mere 70 years. If we don’t destroy ourselves/the planet earlier that is.

Just found out this life hack

When people like you; Problems get easier, Job gets easier, life gets easier, everything becomes easier...

So...

Be nice to people

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

New baby girl 🥰

Worryingly, at 4:04pm.

How long before game UI/HUDs will be implemented using HTML/electron/some other shiny web tech to make cross-platform easier? As cursed as it is, it really it's one of the few “complete” packages when it comes to dealing with UI that I'm aware of

How do I increase my communication?

I feel more confident and less anxious now thanks to exercising more, so it's easier to talk to people.

But I'm told not talking to people, just coming in doing your work and leaving is bad by my boss.

I'm not sure how I can just approach people and talk shit. I guess I have to start with lunch. How do I find people to each lunch with?

Any web devs who started their own website building and SEO company for small businesses? Need your valuable advice on what platform to use and depending on use cases - wix, squarespace, any others or custom (angular/react).

Sid is retoorded

when your IDE has so much funding and idle hands they make GUI facades over terminal functionalities

but then over time they keep releasing "features" for convenience that entirely make the GUI unusable

what's even the point guys

anti features

I still have like, 4 working days left but my manager is on holiday from today so as far as I'm concerned, so am I.

Ahh yes devRant, where most of my enemies live. Featuring the list:

fullstackcircus
shovethisrant
Nanos (should I say ex-Nanos?)
kanyewest
JestDotty
awesomeest
netikras (apparently?)
jAsE

And the last is retoor? which is funny cuz I don't even know who she is.

Thanks for the hate guys, it keeps me going.
