I didn’t want to wait for the adapter to come in…

You might have seen servers running XP, but have you ever seen a car running CE?

Do people really realise that developers have become the back bone of society and alot of things will go south if they were to leave
But noooo they choose to call them the weirdos 😢

Picking up a SOAP in jail is preferable to using the protocol.

Look what arrived today. I'm so excited to start tinkering. I might install Kali Linux on another micro SD card

Trying to explain what database is to non technical people/ non developer

View from my "office" this week. I love coding on vacation.

When a communist starts coding!!

😂😂😂

Sad day when you find out you work for a company who cares more about a working product than a good product.

There we go AI will not take over!!!

I'm so excited! A company in Scotland has just offered me a role, where for the first 2-4 weeks I'll receive Angular training.

My question is - how difficult did you find angular to learn? Were there any concepts you struggled to understand?

Sad but true

Managers Being Managers

Show some respect... 🙌

So fucking tired

~60 hours OT since the new year
I need a fuckin' break!

I'm at my seat during the regular morning routine of checking emails, planning the things I need to complete/study when my phone rings.

HR: Good Morning, can you come over to the conference room please ?

Me: Sure

I enter the conference room and on the other side of the table, I see a group of 3 HR Managers (not a very nice feeling), especially when it was 10 months into my first job as a Trainee Software Developer.

HR: The company hasn't been performing as expected. For this reason, we've been told to cut down our staff. We're sorry but we have to let you go. You've been doing a great job all along. Thank you.

Me: ---- (seriously ?!)

The security-in-chief 'escorts' me out of the premises and I hand over the badge. I'm not allowed to return to my desk.

This happened about 16 years ago. But it stuck with me throughout my programming career.

A couple of Lessons Learnt which may help some of the developers today :

- You're not as important as you think, no matter what you do and how well you do it.
- Working hard is one thing, working smart is another. You'll understand the difference when your appraisals comes around each year.
- Focus on your work but always keep an eye on your company's health.
- Be patient with your Manager; if you're having a rough time, its likely he/she is suffering more.
- Programming solo is great fun. However it takes other skills that are not so interesting, to earn a living.
- You may think the Clients sounds stupid, talks silly and demands the stars; ever wonder what they think about you.
- When faced with a tough problem, try to 'fix' the Client first, then look for a solution.
- If you hate making code changes, don't curse the Client or your Manager - we coders collectively created a world of infinite possibilities. No point blaming them.
- Sharing your ideas matter.
- Software Development is a really long chain of ever-growing links that you may grok rather late in your career. But its still worth all the effort if you enjoy it.

I like to think of programming as a pursuit that combines mathematical precision and artistic randomness to create some pretty amazing stuff.

Thanks for reading.

How I survived this semester of college

when working over 100 hours a week forces you to become mentally insane

So, this poor fucker right here has spent 3 hours straight trying to install KDE Neon AGAIN, FOR THE 14TH TIME AS OF TIME OF WRITING on an old 0.5TB hard drive with some GiB-wise partitioning size and apparently the disk doesn't like it.

Can someone give me a dildo so I can fuck myself more because life is not fucking me hard enough? No lube needed kthanksbye

Me: Yes.
Mom: What is it?
