It's 3:17 am and I'm still not sleeping. Shoot me.

Slack's ability to edit messages can sometimes be fucking annoying. Especially when the boss changed his message to sound less agressive about some 'potential reason' to why we lose conversions.
I read the fucking notification when it arrived at 9:30PM for fuck sake.

Oh the wonderful feeling of weekends. The feeling that if I do the same shit as yesterday, my body would probably shut me down because of stress.
Worst part is, it's all domestic stuff. Not even work.
Fuck sake.

It's 2025.
We still have MSSQL with compatibility level set to 100 (matches the version from 2008).
We still have random downtime or issues with timeouts thanks to parameter sniffing.

Update? No that's expensive and doesn't provide more cashflow (ecommerce-ish).
'I just have to make better code'.

Todays rant is thanks to GoDaddy.

Thanks for parking our 9+ year old domain because of payment 'issues' without any warning.

Fuck you, GoDaddy.

Lol. Another day, another (or just the usual) big tech company just takes us from behind.

This time? Oh Google is just spamming me because they "found malware" on a tracking code. There's nothing. Except competition.

They had to email me about every "malware" in EVERY fucking workspace version. In random order, eventually effecting the live version. Thanks. I really needed those 30 emails to know.

So.. Google Analytics is not working..

Again..

How is algorithms still not regulated or monitored?

The shit that sometimes appear on TT or IG is downright fucked up.

I think I'm having a "return to monkey" phase.
What the fuck are we doing?

Free VPN's, free cloud storage, smartphones and stupid telemetry/uSaGE aNaLYtiCs, password managers, social media, content farms, cheap wifi enabled smart home and 'intelligent' cars.

I'm starting to hate it all.

Look at how many people (including myself, sadly) is glued to their fucking datahoarding multimedia shitdevices (known as 'smartphones'). While sitting in a room filled with every fucking small appliance that needs an app, wifi and phones home to who the fuck knows.
Even my fucking dishwasher has an app and wifi enabled so I can start the dishwasher outside the wifi network.

How the fuck did we get here?
