ChatGPTs UI is so bad it probably was implemented with ChatGPT...

White people decided to rename female circumcision, a traditional practice that takes place among Khoisan, Nyakyusa and Khoekhoe people, to “female genital mutilation”.

The amount of suffering that white people caused to the Africans is immeasurable. And now, white people decide to export their “culture” to Africa, and to tell African women what they can and cannot do to their own private parts? For those of you who don’t know, it’s women circumcising other women.

Can whites just fuck off for once? Let African people write their own laws on their land, and practice their own culture.

If they choose to go to your country, that’s a different story. But as long as they practice their culture among themselves on their own land, fuck off!

Because of all the injustice done to a regular folk by the banks and megacorporations, as well as the parts of government that value those two higher than doing the right thing for the regular people, piracy is all but justified.

For me, piracy is the default option. When it comes to stuff made by a megacorp, the first thing I do is see if I can pirate that. I would argue that piracy should be the default option for everyone.

No, you're not depriving corpo staff/hires of their salaries by pirating. If a megacorp is not paying them, it's not your fault.

I only pay for content if I want to support the creators. I was pirating since I got my first computer, I do pirate right now, and I will pirate in the future. I will advocate for piracy.

I've had to create a very simple frontend feature connected to an API. That part works flawlessly but we have rewritten a bunch of code in the system for a certain hardware device.

Now the person that was working on the backend just said today he has no device to test it on lab environment. Neither does any colleague apparently

And guess who got a meeting with the CEO, COO, sales people and the project manager for a demo of that said feature :D

it's all about attention

See this what I'm talking about

You all are either bots now or other peope copying and pastihg lines

But that's not the main point

Your dumb shit drives me crazy

Everything you people do is repetitive stupid mimicry of previous annoying disgusting degraded fucked up people

There is no reason I should have to run around like a mad fool all over my own fucking country putting out fires when my time isn't simply being wasted

And there is no reason you trashy people have to force me to lie to reinvent things when that's also just a bullshit trap intended to steal my things before you people either all die and or check out or bury tye truth

And there sure as fuck no reason this is necessary at all

Acknowledge the fucking year you fucks

I shouldn't be smelling disgusting things or listening to some fake fat fuck composite instead of enjoying private life around people who aren't fucking crazy apparently lying about horrific shit they did for fun trying to play pretend and cast doubt on other folks who eith3r don't remember or don't know they're just making some flimsy attempt to use them which is likely an enveloped deceit where another group is fucking the would be manipulators over

Fuck you

None of this worked before it just wastes time

What the fuck is up with Germans man. Everyone I discussed ideas with had such a defeatist nutjob attitude of “things are never going to change” and rather complain about the terrible state of companies which actually want to change something. Its the same shit as with electric automotive, fucking pathetic these weißwürstchen sucking bitches

I don't get people that limit themselves to 1 laptop, be that a mac or win or linux.
Are there actual devs out there only using a Chromebook? Do they jump from one 6 figure job to the next and just delete their google account with each one?
I think Eli the computer guy is the best Youtube public example for how your setup should be.
Also have a good personal policy on the kind of shit you install on your machine. No "toolbars" kind of software like Lastpass or anything.
Bottom line: you might as well just unplug your internet connection on your main dev machine at this point.

My children will named after data structures

got this cloud provider who is very knowledgeable, however they set up some logs analytics shit on our one Azure tenant which is costing more than the web apps we host and he's going on about how it's really important that this shit is there because hurr durr security.

Fucking hell, Microsoft Store is the most useless abomination that MS has ever produced and instead of killing it, like they do with their other failed products, they somehow, for some reason, still keep this lobotomized pile of crap alive.

Israelis just attacked a civilians boat in Malta. Malta is in the UE. This is clearly a cassus belli and we should retaliate against Israel and its support (Germany, the US). Putin isn't the only threat.

Just nuke these fuckers.

Just finished Expedition 33. GOTY material for sure. It's easily on my top 5 of all time.

I think I have a problem.
I remember when this platform used to have living people on it I didn't mind.
So i keep logging in curious what the dead fucking people said in response to me, knowing it will be the same anyway.
One day at a time... *deep breath*
Also fuck you, I wrote this before.

Wasting an hour reading a book with the wrong title today.

What if we brought back judging books by their covers?

If i make enough money, i would feed the people, probably direct them to a purpose, i am sick of the imbalance, injustice 😢

We really need to get rid of 96% of the population to actually start living in harmony with our ecosystem.

Humans are weak as shit lol

Just got WHIPLASH from seeing a racist ad in my local gym.

Racist is a bit dramatic, but at the VERY least, it's tone-deaf as fuck and from MY perspective (Where I missed the first 10 seconds of the ad) it was definitely racist feeling. Even with the context, I think it's pretty strange.

Anyways, this grocery chain is running this advertisement campaign about their yellow tags. I guess yellow tags in their store are supposed to be good! So they depict a bunch of yellow things and put text on screen saying that "yellow is (positive attribute etc etc)"

You might already see where this is going?

Basically, they had one scene with bold yellow text "YELLOW IS HAPPY" and the background of yellow tulips. Again, I joined the chat while the ad was already going so I barely had time to read all the text before the scene changed.

The next scene that they chose to depict yellow things?

Oh, just a child in yellow overalls holding a yellow ice pop. Oh, and the child was Asian...

SERIOUSLY how tone deaf could you POSSIBLY BE. DON'T PUT ASAINS IN YOUR COMMERCIAL ALL ABOUT YELLOW THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!

It was especially jarring since I lacked almost all context. I thought it was some shitty comedy sketch for a moment.

Working while listening to Street Fighter II OST.

Hadouuuken! Skoryuken! Tiger!

At $work, I just learned that a daemon on prod makes an SFTP connection to the same domain every 0.5 to 10 seconds, all day long, every single day. That’s a minimum of 8,640 connections per day!

The senior developer responsible for it had the dev skills of a junior and the management skills of a puppet, but she’s a “disadvantaged minority” and is great at stealing credit and throwing people under the bus. Naturally, she has been given multiple promotions and a team to lead… which she fills exclusively with other Indians, all of them at her skill level or below. (I used to do their code reviews and security reviews.)

When I asked one of the fintech managers (a former dev) about the crazy number of SFTP connections, he said “[Her team] did that intentionally, as it didn’t used to be that way. They must have had a reason” and cut me off.

Okay then.
Not my garden, not my fertilizer.
Just another day weeding the fields in hell.

I'm doing a new strike technique called sneaky strike.

I'm not doing shit. Not even telling my boss I'm on strike.

Nobody tells him.

C'EST LA LUTTEUH FINALEEEU

Next week, my company decided to create a new app. But they are not sure about which features they all want. So far there is only consensus on a login screen.

They also expect us to learn a new framework/language over the weekend for no extra pay.

And they want the majority of the code to be vibe coded and we don't even have an idea what features we want...

This is going to be a disaster.

Proud owner of a brand new Volkswagen, baked less than a month ago :)))

Lots of touch and tech inside, lots of assisting technologies -- quite a jump from a 2005 Audi a6. You can even track your car in your phone now OOTB :) cool!

Everyone is trying to cover up the most worthless morale destroying perverse and depressing part of history, and then they try so hard to drag people back through it, now you're all acting like it never happened just like the last group consumed by it. Why are you all so fucking crazy ?

And btw if you're all wondering
Was life better without your evil lying asses ?

Yup

So go on

I'm curious how I'm going to be 38 again heh

Hey ppl!
Is there any nice and "standard" way to convert a react app into a native mobile app? or at least write something that can work both as a webapp and also a mobile app?

I know about pwa, but it's not what I'm looking for since I can't upload the apk on playStore technically and it's not considered "native".
Also learning another technology such as react native or flutter is my last option due to the small deadlines.

I have some big projects that I need to have their mobile versions, so I'm planning on this.

A new low for me, lol.

Beer, weed, good TV show. After 3 hours:

"Damn, I can't follow this show, so complicated. Let's go code a new feature in my app!"

And 1 day later, reviewing the code (because I have no memory of it), it actually works with just 2-3 edits...

I had the weirdest job interview in the world. A job that wasn't even considering due to lower compensation than what I am making.

Throughout my career I saw three types of interviews (some times I have 1 & 2, 1&3 or just 2 or just 3 or fail early in 1):

1. HR textbook style: your 3 biggest weaknesses, what would your coworkers describe (I fail most of the time here)

2. People coming to prove a point to you (what happened to me today): Somebody with a clear intention to prove you are stupid and/or lying.. You are guilty until proven innocent style of interaction. They will find one little thing that you read about 15 years ago and zoom in it enough (it takes a 1min read to go over that again) and to them you are stupid and that's it. Generally insecure people do that

3. Tech oriented hiring people: it always goes well even if I don't get hired. Where they focus on the skills that take years to master rather than zooming on something you studied 15 years ago and totally forgot.

The hiring person was in tech presumably for 20 years but I saw 0 important stuff in his github. (I can name and shame if it's allowed here)

Shithead manager.

Complaining that I'm a "senior" and he expects more from me (ignore that he's been making that complaint for 3 years and it's only been my job for less than 1)

Now complaining that I'm taking time to teach someone about something that they don't actually need to know.

I'm so fucking done with this job.

After mass downvoting a serial ad spammer, apparently I've lost my downvote privileges and all of my downvotes are removed. Fucking great.

Meanwhile devrant is flooded with 99% spam, nazi trolling, pseudo intellectual conspiracy nonsense and politics.

I‘m tired of this shit.
