I don't know if I'm one of the only ones who struggles performing at their job.
I have a good foundation in Computer Science and a few degrees, yet I somehow always struggle, especially in Business Analysis. I know it's partially my specific situation since I need to catch up on some studying.
I want Software Development to be comfortable, not agony where 80% of the time I'm pulling my hair out trying to understand how something works. It just makes the job unpleasant. I currently hate algorithms, databases and custom client logic.
For me, Software Development is either fun solving a problem, or dealing with a convoluted, annoying business problem that has to be solved in a very custom way, coupled with tons of headaches about how to engineer things. I don't want that. I want fun and discovery, not agony and wishing I weren't in this industry.18 -
Had to change my dog in my profile. The little black dog died, and I'm grieving pretty hard over it. One dog left, and that's it for me after he's gone. I can't say goodbye to any more puppers.5

After mass downvoting a serial ad spammer, apparently I've lost my downvote privileges and all of my downvotes are removed. Fucking great.
Meanwhile devrant is flooded with 99% spam, nazi trolling, pseudo intellectual conspiracy nonsense and politics.
I‘m tired of this shit.9 -
Proud owner of a brand new Volkswagen, baked less than a month ago :)))
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!20 -
I see more and more tech books with AI generated cover, and every time I feel like the whole book is probably generated and is worthless 🤔3

Challenge for today: tell someone who micromanages that they are micromanaging and see what happens! I never saw our politically, culturally, morally, vibe'ly correct HR lady lose her shit so much :D funny how someone drops all masks when something vulnerable gets touched10

nee rule in office: if you are taking leave on a wfo day, you must come to work on wfh day in the same week. even if your whole team is working remotely.
wtf!?
I am being punished to take an emergency leave because i was in a er room taking breaths off an Oxygen cylinder?
what is the point of this rule? just day Directly that its 5 days a week. why even give a fake illusion of 3 days office
if i try to reject this rule, i need to take double leaves... leave on wfo as well on wfh day
i am tired of being in such an exploiting company. If only my country wasn't in the middle of war and I wasn't getting any worse in terms of health, i would have quit even without a job offer in hand2 -
Having an Active Noise-Cancelling headset is a gift to a Software Developer. Concentrated engineering in any noisy environment.
The dawn of a new generation in luxury personal equipment.
The ANC headset is a premium lightweight, high-performance headset that meets the demands of the new generation of upper-income urban software developers.
The ANC has the conveniences of earplugs, a wireless communications device, and a device without wires.
Muting power is a matter of convenience with the ANC headset.15 -

Want to prevent your Windows PC from ever entering sleep mode? (Okay, okay, I know, you can do it in settings.)
Easy solution: Launch the Amazon Music app. (Without even playing any music, just launching the app prevents sleep mode, lol.)
What dumb developers from Amazon...2 -
Bogged down the entire office network because I mirrored Ubuntu Universe to my PC. Apparantly the downlink wasn't rate limited...2

👨🏽💻 Switching between multiple Git accounts: work, personal, freelance?
Ever pushed a commit with Company A's email to Company B's repo? 😩🥶
Been there. Done that. Regretted it immediately.
I just dropped a step-by-step guide on how to set up Git so it automatically picks the right name, email, and SSH key based on your project folder.
No more manual config switching. 💡
✅ No more identity mix-ups
✅ No more commit shame
✅ Just clean, context-aware Git workflows 🙌
🔧 What’s inside:
- Multiple SSH key setup
- Smart .gitconfig using includeIf
- Folder structure that keeps you sane
- Bonus tips for HTTPS + personal token users
If you’ve ever yelled at Git (or yourself), this one’s for you.
👏 Drop a clap if it helps and follow for more dev-friendly tips!

European hares and regular bunnies have nothing in common in terms of how they behave.
Hares will scream at you and attack you if you get too close. They're very fast and very agile, they even look like mini kangaroos. Sometimes they will open their mouth and jump at you full force, essentially using their body as a spear and their incisors as a spear tip. Their teeth are VERY sharp. Unlike carnivores' canines which are pointy, hare's incisors are flat like a razor's edge. They can totally bite your finger off.
They're big, strong and fierce enough to scare away foxes.
Just imagine dying of anaphylaxis all alone in the forest with no one to help you after getting bit by a not-even-rabid not-even-predator.14 -
Some doctor dropped a video online that says 1 egg per week (whole egg) can prevent dementia by like 47%. I guess I need to eat more eggs. Doh!
What I don't get it what the 47% actually means. Is this a chance of a person getting something in a population? So lets say the chance of dementia is 10%. Does that mean eating an egg will reduce this chance to 6.3?13
