@Alice to be fair commit strip wants you to steal it as long as you don’t remove the attribution.

@ArcaneEye there’s also chicken ranching. You kill the parents for meat and eat the eggs. 😂

@rEaL-jAsE I’m not sure if you meant to make the errors variable be buggy because you meant it to be a comparison operator 🤔

But really; eat healthy, exercise, 8 hours of sleep, and don’t try to actually do it all. Just slow down, code thoughtfully and enjoy life.

Lol! Same.

@lazyDev thanks man! You’re welcome to steal
It, it’s pretty low on my list of ‘crazy ideas’ to build because it’d be so hard to monetize.

I told my wife that I’ll use the time waiting for her to get ready to leave whenever we leave to build a real-time app for partners waiting for partners. It’d be simply a button you hold down while you wait which would cumulatively count all of the time sig-o’s have wasted waiting. Then it’d be a website that compared the cumulative waste of time with other famous comparable time spans. Example, “There is more wasted time now than Rome was in power, 1,523 years”

@magicMirror is there a VM for OSX that can run versions of OSX?? Also that wouldn’t solve my issue of needing to test using my phone but Apple not supporting the LAST version of Xcode. #sigh

So fucking pissed at Apple lately.

Classical is very stimulating for writing code. “The Mozart Effect” is a great read on this subject.

She not he. Ada Lovelace.

Just a friendly note 'fml' does not stand for 'family.'

It's he routine along with coffee for me. 5k morning run, then some over easy eggs with fresh ground Sumatra brewed in my Chemex then poured over ice. I'm good for 10 hours of intense focus after that.

There it is.

I'm pretty sure I just read somewhat recently about an engineer working at a Car company did the same with some code, but forgot to remove the commenting. I think he got fired.

His is when testing strings for exact content can be more trouble than it's worth. If I need to test stings in my unit tests I'll usually define a range in regex.

I can imagine how this would go down from the younger me's point of view:
*bzzzzzzzp*
'Woah, me from the future? You built a time machine to come back and tell me how awesome I.... *SMACK* WTF?!'
'Get your act together you little sh*t.'
*bzzzzzp*

Don't get me wrong, WordPress is a fine tool, and when it meets my clients needs, I create a custom theme and build all of the functionality in generally less time than it would take me to download a plugin and figure out how to configure it, then ultimately hack it when it doesn't do everything the client needs.

I have had to deal with many clients who had their site built by these people and every single one of them complains about these things:
- It is way too slow
- It breaks all the time (after updates)
- it is too complicated to create new pages or update the structure.

I have to say, this is the biggest damn scam out there and there are way too many 'web developers' out there participating.

@xorith agree, setting up is a pain, but the typechecking is pretty sweet.

body { background-color: black; }

That's the version I'm familiar with.

Show a viable alternative. Most sites don't need a CMS, in my experience clients WANT them, but never end up making use of them then ask me to make updates for them.

This is when I start automating other boring parts of my job. So far:
- automated clocking in and out from the time clock web app.
- automated generic responses to some emails, "taking a look at that now", "well it worked on dev!"...
- automated live database backups to local system.

My snarky response: "not having had the application/feature in the first place."

My constructive response: "being allowed more time to cover more cases in the unit and integration tests."

@dev0urer totally agreed. Not to mention the use of TypeScript allowing you to use the latest ECMAScript standard and enforce type checking.

Figure out a way to automate it?

@Zerosource AI for a game your teacher made? Sounds like he's figured out a way to get free labor! 😝

Good communication skills include knowing when to communicate.

No, this never happens to me. The code doesn't start flowing out until the coffee is flowing in.
