Just kidding. lol4 -
Manager didn't even bother announcing his notice to the entire team himself. He told the seniors first in our meeting, but said he wanted to talk to some other people 1-on-1. Well he never did, and the director got on our daily stand and announced it, and a lot of people still didn't know or hear rumors.
He's so shit at communicating. Even while in office, he'd schedule something and be 15 minutes late or not show up. He's generally a good dude and hopefully he'll have less to deal with and be better at time management at the new place.
Still debating if I should tell the director I'd be interested in his position.2 -
today a drunk hobo yelled down a major crowded street at me saying she loved my shirt
I actually felt pretty embarrassed to be wearing this shirt. I bought it cuz I went fuckit one day. I was dying anyway. I had to be outside twice today and it didn't occur to me that I would be out of laundry. I tried to cover it with an overshirt the first time to not scare the kids, like literal kids are everywhere on my daily walk path
thinking back on it I should've given the hobo like 40$. nobody ever says anything nice anymore, or does anything nice for anyone anymore. but I'm poor and in the same boat as the hobo. probably for the same reason. my eyes just glazed over and I was just concerned about myself and nobody else
just browsed some books again. I was browsing books with the word "difficult" in them, thinking maybe I'd find something interesting. interestingly most books with this word are about management dealing with people at work. all of the books, in the sparknotes, were disgustingly dehumanizing. at least I'm catching up to the rules of the game I guess. very late. I hate my optimism. I should've always been disgusted but I had always hoped humanity was better. why-ever did I think such a thing? who put it in my head?
they say the greatest trick the devil ever pulled is convince the world he isn't real
I'm not used to making mistakes. and some mistakes feel so very big6 -

Yesterday, our manager told us he put in his notice last week. He'll be gone next Friday. I'm physically in the office today with the start of whatever knowledge transfers we'll be seeing.
He's been the lead designer on our current project. The architect is mostly in his head and he has all the domain knowledge. It doesn't hit production for a few months, but he's essentially dumping this huge pile of AI generated mess on me.
I hate physically being in the office. These hot desks suck so bad and I hate seeing all these sheeple.6 -
Did a big refactoring on a file/type which had about 1k loc.
Extracted some code into separate types as components with single focused responsibilities.
Extracted the generic parts into a generic component and using it in the specific component via composition.
Made the boundaries between different layers of responsibility explicit and clear.
Reduced the original file size to about 400 loc.
Ran the app to check if everything works exactly as it was before the refactoring.
It does! I fucking love my job!7 -
What if you were able to make changes to devRant, what would it be? What features are missing / could be better?
Also, if you were tasked to make the site popular again, how would you do it?15 -
For better performance, visit https://dr.molodetz.nl. The site now enables intelligent local caching of resources, with a 1-minute local cache for HTML content. It successfully proxies all external domain resources (e.g., avatars), caching them while excluding API responses to ensure notifications remain current. All resource patches are done decently using beautifulsoup, no regex shit.
It brings back the original devRant experience! Yes, avatars work again on opened threads but not on the feeds list / notification list, those are rendered by JS. Could patch that but for now out of scope.10 -
A forty-five minute daily standup for a team of twelve is absolutely criminal and I feel like I'm the insane one for being the only one to not be okay with that.5

If your are creating really something completely new, you have a custom idea / algorithm, AI is really against you. So far, I did not really notice it, because lets face it, when are you creating something really new? It`s mostly just all the same, maybe different gameplay, other type of data, but it is still the same. I am trying to reinvent agentic browsing because everyone fails at that. I found the golden hammer. I was so enthousiast that for the first time in quite a while i coded myself again. At a certain moment, i had my skeleton ready and do what i always do: I let AI finish it. That did it completely correct. But then, i went moving on and i started to realize that it was strongly opiniated to do things different > like everyone does > everyone fails.
AI is so interesting, i really compare it to learning C. Everytime you think you master it, you get shot in the foot unexpectedly. With AI it`s exactly the same.
Also, it is just NOT AI. That is ok it is still PARTIALLY useful... Very useful. But the last thing we need is a agentic React and feedback loop. I could write a rant about that as well. Those things are literally a trial on error approach delivering what we are used to from AI. Stuff that kinda works. Slowly, slowly, we find out that we actually don`t want someone to think for us. Maybe that is the great thing and benefit of a computer, it doesn`t think. Maybe the whole concept of AI, the idea of it, is broken.
Just like VR. Lets create a virtual world that looks super closely to the real world. But in reality, we already have a real world and it is not comfortable to be disconnected of it in the form of a headset. I think it will never be comfortable for me.
Some concepts are just better in theory than reality.
Still, I am the creator of the best AI companion / assistant ever! Only issue is, the magic is a bit gone if you create it yourself.3 -
I don’t know if someone made this joke already (most probably yes), but…
The opposite of increment isn’t decrement. It’s excrement.13 -

Have you ever wondered what happened w/ all the unsold devDucks?
Pyramid Head Duck: https://amazon.co.uk/TUBBZ-First-Si... ,
Merchant duck /* "Welcome! Got a selection of good things on sale, stranger!" */ : https://amazon.co.uk/TUBBZ-Boxed-Co... , etc.

Found those purely by accident, given how I had been looking for controllers.5 -
geez
I wondered if there's like a "best of AI" subreddit or something. some actual genuine fun, memes around AI and what people do with it. but there isn't. best I found is an AI forum but it's everyone complaining about if their jobs will be taken away from them or not
dead tech, 100% man. nobody is actually excited about this or making use of it. I think everyone just hates it
... earlier heard a dude say AI gets 10% of things wrong, and when it gets it wrong it's like a drunk teenager eating lead. I think 10% is a serious underestimation... the guy claims he doesn't let his AI make actual decisions/responses/reactions/control anything at his company... but he's using it to tell him its judgements on data in his system. if the AI can't be trusted to reply, why are you trusting it to understand without verifying it yourself? he thinks he's being so clever with that... but it just never occurred to him it could be making errors in its perceptions. if it's soooo badly dangerous that it often deletes whole systems when given access there is absolutely no reason to think it doesn't "seriously misjudge" the data it looks at to begin with... it SERIOUSLY MISJUDGING the data it's looking at is probably how it's ending up deleting various systems? this guy just doesn't think to check. I guess perceptions are considered cheap but they're the most expensive thing there is -- because EVERYTHING is downstream from perceptions. OODA loop. my god. and this guy thinks he's an AI skeptic...
we're all just folly to our human laziness I suppose7 -
