Privacy & security violations piss me off. Not to the point that I'll write on devRant about it, but to the point that coworkers get afraid from the bloodthirsty look in my eyes.

I know all startups proclaim this, but the one I work at is kind of industry-disrupting. Think Uber vs taxi drivers... so we have real, malicious enemies.

Yet there's still this mindset of "it won't happen to us" when it comes to data leaks or corporate spying.

Me: "I noticed we are tracking our end users without their consent, and store not just the color of their balls, but also their favorite soup flavor and how often they've cheated on their partner, as plain text in the system for every employee to read"

Various C-randomletter-Os: "Oh wow indubitably most serious indeed! Let's put 2 scrumbag masters on the issue, we will tackle this in a most agile manner! We shall use AI blockchains in the elastic cloud to encrypt those ball-colors!"

NO WHAT I MEANT WAS WHY THE FUCK DO WE EVEN STORE THAT INFORMATION. IT DOES IN NO WAY RELATE TO OUR BUSINESS!

"No reason, just future requirements for our data scientists"

I'M GRABBING A HARDDRIVE SHREDDER, THE DB SERVER GOES FIRST AND YOUR PENIS RIGHT AFTER THAT!

(if it's unclear, ball color was an optimistic euphemism for what boiled down to an analytics value which might as well have been "nigger: yes/no")

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING FUCK MICROSOFT?!!

me: *generates new password and resets the password for the account*
Windows: You can now log in

Windows: WRONG PASSWORD!

Hydrogen gas is fun. Really fun :D

Me and my brother were really bored earlier today. So what do two dudes, 14 and 17 do on a warm spring day?

1. Go to store.
2. Buy drain cleaner, aluminum foil, balloons and a big drink in a glass bottle.
3. Drink the drink.
4. Shred aluminum in a document shredder.
5. Mix alu, drain cleaner and water in the bottle.
6. Quickly put a balloon over the bottle opening.
7. Wait.
8. Get a lighter and blow that shit up! 🔥
9. Repeat until you run out of balloons.
10. Don't kill yourself doing this.

Lesson of the day: If Visual Studio starts acting up (doing inexplicable and illogical shit that literally makes me question life), just delete the .vs folder. In fact, don't delete it. Fucking shred it with a file shredder. Or even better, write it to a CD and burn the CD.

Ok bye 👋

Do you have ever tried to recover a very valuable shredded stack of paper (4 sheets)? They are shredded into A LOT OF PIECES and not stripes as I hoped for!!

After 5 hours work I have found 15 pieces which fit together! I am so pissed about myself and my incompetence when it comes to data cleaning 😡😠🤬

Spend few days to make reasonable profile on angel.co to get some job. After few months and hundreds of applies only few shitty responses for free work. Probably all recruiters are US based and see I'm from Europe so my e-cv goes right to e-shredder instantly. FML.

CAN’T WITHDRAW EARNINGS FROM EXCHANGE? CONTACT GEARHEAD ENGINEERS ORGANIZATION

Like many crypto enthusiasts, My dad was initially drawn to the platform by its seemingly professional interface, an array of cryptocurrencies available for trading, and the alluring promises of high returns. The exchange looked reputable, offering a seamless user experience. Dad decided to deposit a significant amount of $50,000 to try his hand at crypto trading. Everything appeared legitimate, and after a few weeks, his account balance had grown to over $200,000. I remember how thrilled he was with his success and wanted to cash out some of his profits. However, when he tried to withdraw funds, problems began to emerge. The platform’s customer service team contacted him with an urgent request: to unlock his funds, he would need to deposit an additional $40,000. The explanation provided was that there were "processing fees" associated with large withdrawals, and that this extra deposit was required before the investor could access any of his money. That’s when I began doing my research and in the process, I found that this is in fact a common scheme. My brother in-law recommended a Tech company called GearHead Engineers, which has been helping victims like my dad to successfully withdraw their funds without paying the unfair fees. We did contact them through their email, gearhead(@)engineer(.)com and after a series of communication, they got back every single penny back. This only took them 4 days. I must admit that we were impatient but it turned out great. Reach out to them.
