In networking class today:

Student - "But this is just in theory, how does it work in practice?"

Lecturer - "In theory, theory and practice are the same thing."

Some time ago I quit my job at a big corporation. Getting treated like a resource, a production line robot, just isn't for me.

My current job is way better. Small company, lots of freedom, getting to work on multiple projects, the result counts. But, as a small company, we also collaborate with big corporations. So I joined a team at one.

Watching my coworkers there, I'm reminded of robots again. Lunch break? 15 minutes tops. Just shovel some edibles into your face hole and back to work. Five minutes break between meetings? Open laptop, work work work. The concept of "needing rest" seems entirely foreign to them.

Yesterday our product owner "relayed some criticism" from other team members to me. Apparently, me going to the toilet in breaks is "suddenly disappearing". Or me not replying within 15 minutes in the chat is outrageous. And then he tried to berate me how I'm "his developer" and his team's tasks have top priority. So, according to the PO the problem is me and I should "get used to their mode of operation".

How about "no". I quit a fucking job because that "mode" is simply inhuman. After that feedback, you bet I'm taking my legally protected 30 minutes lunch break and any other break I can. Because fuck yourself, you're not going to burn me out. The best part, that team has smokers who "suddenly disappear" twice as much as I do, but apparently that's somehow a-ok.

I had to remind him that his project is just one of several I'm working on, so no, not "his dev". While that wasn't exactly a powerful comeback, it did shut him up. Still going to talk to my boss on Monday, at least to ensure that the PO can't talk shit about me behind my back.

Been suffering from a constant headache! -__-

Wife - my site is not working, everything in the code looks correct. But it is only throwing me 404 all over

Me - "blaming the teacher for giving bad shit"

Wife after googling - I fixed it, you have forgot to enable .htaccess in the virtualhost

FFS how long have I been this stupid?

12yo: omg i need to wake up in 15 hours for school, i need to get to bed asap

14yo: omg only 12 hours of sleep until i need to wake up for school, i gotta go to bed

17yo: shit just 10 hours of sleep, need to go to bed rn

19: only 8 hours of sleep until i need to wake up for college, that's more than enough

20: just 5 hours of sleep until i need to wake up for college, exactly how much i need

21: 2 hours is just fine

The fuckening

Last night I dreamed that one of my repos on GitHub got -1 stars and I was actually really sad

Hacktoberfest in Indore!!

This is a perfect evening for me.

I am happy!
Participated in Hacktoberfest for the first time, and now, the t-shirt (which, btw, looks pretty nice imo) is on its way! Can't wait!

Thanks to the people who organize these sort of events ❤️😁

Finally more space for my ideas!
This desk is huge!

The final defense system. 😒

Customer at a first meeting:
- "Didn't realize you're a developer, you're almost good looking!"
Never got a more bittersweet compliment.

Just told my dad that python 3.6 launched yesterday, he asked me if i wanted it for christmas 😅

Message from God to Python developers

I just replaced 180 lines of Python with 5 lines. I want to smack the author but that would be workplace violence. Funny how if you import some built in libraries you don't have to basically write it's entire functionality and can just use it. I am so ready for this week to be over.

Imagine all the variables...

This is my new logo, what do you think of it?

Better late than never, right?

My collection is growing...

Finally I can start using emojis again! well done google!

My brain hurts just from thinking that i need to write regex

My school computers are *the most secure machines* on the planet as per the network admins at school.

A simple Unix command like sudo -i allows you to break in the system with "root" as password.

Pretty secure, right?
