Liquid glass, my arse.

Interview:

Round one.. fight.

Me: "I want to work with modern technology"
Them: "Have you worked with modern technology before?"
Me: "No"
Them: "No job for you"

Right, so to get a job in modern tech you already have to have worked in it. Sigh.

One of my passion projects was down, could not understand why, then a few days later i saw it was back online.

What happened was i used apache on a 1gb vps, and every time there was any significant traffic OOM killer stepped in and killed apache.

But then, when lets encrypt generated a new certificate, in the process turned apache back on. Circle of life i guess.

Creating mobile-first & responsive designs remains such an unfun experience. At least a lot of css frameworks makes it less painful but it still remains painful :(

There was a time when Java 8 and React 16 were all the hype as if it were yesterday... and now we have Java 25...

The world of IT just moves way too fast. lol

Hello there!

From my 5 min lurking procedure, good to see this place didn't die.

So. I guess AI took my job... But not in the way people preach.

I survived the first layoff wave, but not the second. Cutting off on game driver development. Everything goes towards AI now.

Well, I get nice severance, and I already have another job, and I learned good shit, and can always pull the old FAANG style "worked at V".

Life goes on.

Wow, apparently when you're authorizing a Github App with your account there's always a "[This app can] Act on your Behalf" permission that you have to agree too

Bro what??? I just want to add https://utteranc.es/ as a comment system on my blog ;_;

Fortunately it doesn't actually mean what it says. It just means that the app can do all the *other* listed permissions *in your name*. I think?

This wording has been criticized by multiple people but apparently GitHub will not fix it for some fucking reason. Great way to scare off literally every single person who want to comment on some random blog. Because there's so many of those in the first place..........

I fucking hate how ugly Angular is

Do you have a favorite dull software utility? Here's my favorite alarm clock that I install on each new phone:

Me in the midst of a market full of more experienced developers:

I'm just a kiiid and my life is a nightmare!
I'm just a kiiid and I know that it's not fair!

I don't understand some devs. Sometimes there are senior devs that instead of documenting requirements on paper, they decide to call you and tell you all the complex requirements for half an hour and expect you to just get up and develop what they just said.

Wtf is wrong with some people. Better: Jira, documentation, e-mail, communication.
