Kung fury omg

I forgot why open space bothered me in the past, too much noises...
No I remember and I need a new headset with a very good anc

I hate what AI has done to developers, man.

I was discussing something a couple of days ago while my colleague was sharing his screen. He (Android/Flutter developer asked for my help for something custom in the iOS build) And while we were discussing it, he went to ChatGPT.

He wrote a bad prompt using wrong terms (for example how tabbar in ios is a different thing than android), i told him he was wrong and what the solution is, he didn't listen and went to try out what the AI said, made a bunch of errors, the proceeded to copy the errors to chatgpt wasting so much time.

AI to some developers is like tiktok to kids.

Step away from the computer...

it's so comforting to live with Debian knowing that Debian is a journey, not destination. Slowly, step by step, you hone this system to be _exactly_ as you want it. it's computing on your terms.

I'm yet to wrap my head around the fact that what's on my screen is for my eyes only, and no one else anywhere in the world sees it, human or AI.

Good afternoon everyone!

Fuckers stole my ground. Can't have shit in South Africa

Whoever came up with the "brilliant" idea of having different date formats should be punched in their face! Stop inventing all sorts of idiotic local standards for every little freaking thing! This goes for Americans and Europeans alike! FFS! Why can't everybody just agree on using yyyy-MM-dd, the only correct and sensible date format?! Sweden is the only country that I know has got it right.

When someone interrupts me during concentrated work:

"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!"

What’s the most frustrating bug you've ever encountered, and how did you finally fix it (or did you just give up and rewrite everything)?

ew, python

Screw you, NuGet.

I'm not explaining why I am saying this, but,

Fuck AI, Fuck OpenAI, Fuck Sora, Fuck Sam Altman and especially, wait for it, especially, Fuck Devin.

Christmas carols everywhere 🤢

I mean, what’s not to trust? I’m sure it’s virtually secure and private.

A young guy I work with burst into tears today, I had no idea what happened so I tried to comfort him and ask what was up.

It appears his main client had gone nuts with him because they wanted him to make an internet toolbar (think Ask.com) and he politely informed them toolbars doesn't really exist anymore and it wouldn't work on things like modern browsers or mobile devices.

Being given a polite but honest opinion was obviously something the client wasn't used to and knowing the guy was a young and fairly inexperienced, they started throwing very personal insults and asking him exactly what he knows about things (a lot more than them).

So being the big, bold, handsome senior developer I am, I immediately phoned the client back and told them to either come speak to me face-to-face and apologise to him in person or we'd terminate there contract with immediate effect. They're coming down tomorrow...

So part my rant, part a rant on behalf of a young developer who did nothing wrong and was treated like shit, I think we've all been there.

We'll see how this goes! Who the hell wants a toolbar anyway?!
