You know it's gonna be a good Friday when the dev team takes a work trip to the store to get beer.
Happy Friday everyone!2 -
What's your coding drink?
Personally: Anise or thyme tea or a large Cappucino because you know this brain need some premium fuel to work 😂26 -
There's only three endgame situations I can imagine: Become fuel for AI's projects, become some kind of pet or archived memorabilia thing stored in a vat of amniotic fluid, or merge brain and be human-AI hybrid.
Don't know if the concept of "job" is still meaningful in any of those scenarios.4 -
Brain of a normal person is like an SUV — versatile, robust, occasionally kinda fast, needs minimal maintenance.
Brain of a bipolar person is like a supercar — needs a lot of maintenance, can't go off-road, can only drive on a perfect track without destroying itself, only takes special, expensive kind of fuel, can't drive in the winter.
Yes, you boubas can perform better when I'm depressed. But when I'm manic, your skill and your experience don't matter. I'm gonna tear you apart. I'm not gonna take your job — I'll take your bosses and will replace you with a script I wrote in 20 minutes. I'll again spend three hours and take Product of the Day. I'll again take the CTO job without even applying.
Mania is like taking quad damage AND god mode.
But in two weeks, I'll be depressed again. sleeping for 13 hours and not able to work.
Too bad mania is temporary, but achievements are forever. Good luck1
