Sometimes I don't want my co-workers to see the notes I write on a meeting, for several reasons: Maybe they might have bad intentions (yes, I'm a little bit paranoid), or sometimes I wrote stupid stuff just to concentrate or remember things faster, or I want to practice my cyrillic alphabet.

What do you think? how do you take "secret" notes on a meeting? Any slav in here that could tell me if he/she understands my calligraphy? XD

Let’s continue with the last rant.

Sometimes, when I wrote notes to myself that are extremely, extremely secret but I don’t plan to use it for more than a day, I use alef-bet.

I have to admmit I’m a disaster with sofit letters and vowels, and that’s why I don’t make secret and long lasting notes in this alphabet (that actually is not even an alphabet, it’s an abyad).

Well, I guess I have too much deadtime 😂

What I tried to write is “Echar una llamada a las 10:30” (Make a call at 10:30). I hope I didn’t write some stupid stuff instead XD

I’m not jew, but I find this writing interesting 🤔 the most hard way to write I’ve ever tried

Sometimes we woulg get a request which involves adding something or changing something to a rather large and poorly made codebase which me and my lead have not had the time to change.

This b how shit goes:

* the lead gets a call after an email was sent with apparently only 5 secs of response time( inpatient fucks)

* lead calls me in next to his station to listen to the call

* i b listening and shit, not even taking notes and shit, looking all secret weapon and shit.
Texas as fuck.

* lead puts shit on hold and looks at me

Lead: "Allright. You know the codebase as well as I do, what you think?"

Me: pffft gimme 30 mins and Ill whip out yo solution

Lead: we positive on the estimate?

Me: as positive as the Texas Rangers sucking ass but we still love em, fuck the Astros

Lead: there is only room for one team

Me: only one

**fist bump

* goes back to the call:

Lead: yeah its gonna take 2 days at most.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we do finish them in 30 mins. The trick is in doing it extra fast so we have enough time to fuck around or do some other shit and to make it seem like we do some hard shit. After maybe 6 hours we tell them that we managed to fix it before time.

Texas....as....fuck

Btw me and the lead tall about whatever while we code the stuff, most of the time I do it since my boy has heavy eye problems and I want him to relax. He has been training me a lot in regards to knowing the codebase, before I got here it was only him for two fucking campuses and the man did an outstanding job. My boy got my ass and I got his.

Teamwork, the southern gentleman's way.

Texas.

P.d while coding it he said the one of the file sizes was too big to handle, i said "das what she said" and our female manager said "i heard that".......i could have sworn that she gave me a lil wink. Well damn.

When any rants I write, I need to put in my Password managers' "Secure Note" section because I can't post here for them becoming public.

Pfrtt! xD

I wanna automatically run a script on reddit to delete certain comments that meet certain criteria

as a dev process, reddit allows you to register "an app" and it will give you an app id via email

and also give you an app secret which is like the password to use the app

and then couple that with a username and password, you can call a REST API and do things automatically on the website. super easy

I just use this to look at comments and posts I made and delete them if the word per upvote count is below a certain threshold. this way I don't leak too much personal data and can also look at my post history and laugh at things I said that others curated for me

well

I had deleted the CI/CD project I had on gitlab that would run this script every week. I kept the script's code in my notes though. I stopped using reddit so I had just deleted the gitlab project since there was no point in doing the cleanup

few months ago I started using reddit for some reason and left some posts. I couldn't remember if I still had this script running or not but it became evidently that my comments were not automatically cleaned up therefore it was not running

I found the script, made a new project for it just now... but. to do CI/CD scripts you put all your secrets and stuff into environmental variables. since I had deleted the gitlab repository I no longer had access to the secrets. no problem right, I cns just go on Reddit again and get my app secrets, right?

well turns out the app is is only ever mailed to you. I can't see it. I have the app secret though

I tried to figure out which email address would've received the email. ok it was a throwaway protonmail email

I try to log in... deleted due to inactivity. and you can't remake the same email address because it would be a security concern. annoying but fine

I try to change the email address reddit knows me by... and it wants to send a confirmation email to the existing email to allow me to do it... but I don't have access to the existing email because proton deleted it due to inactivity -.-

so I literally can't delete comments on this reddit account because I can't get access to an email address I can totally log in fine into but protonmail decided to delete due to inactivity and won't allow me to remake and reddit won't allow me to give it a different email address without first using the original deleted one...

this is like bureaucracy hell

technology sucks
