				    Lol just found the world of Warcraft soundtrack at spotify...
On my way to work, feeling like walking through the gates of Stormwind...
Where my nerds at?! (Huh)?26 - 
				    
				    When you release your first plugin for vscode and you just see it grows and grows yeserday was 350 downloads and now it's almost 700!
Now that's a great feeling and it seems I was helping people! \0/

- Referred to manager as "Mein fuhrer" to a colleague in slack.
- Reading an email from a recruiter.13 - 
				    
				    Picking the web development field and becoming more of a business person than a dev.
I want to develop more interesting things (like games, AI, etc) rather than corporate websites and web apps. Now, I can't even write a mobile app ffs.
I can't even work on my hobby project lately.6 - 
				    
				    My biggest enemy is what i call "development fork bomb".
My boss duplicates code on a daily basis. Instead of creating subclasses he simply creates new files by copying lines from other files. The projects class hierarchy is as flat as holland.
You can take a comment, do a project-wide search and you will find 3+ matches, an ugly hack i wrote exists 4 times in the project, and so on.
Worst of all, we spend more time on bugfixes than refactoring. With my power i could add a commit-hook to block or lessen this behaviour, but i cant. There's no program that can detect this reliably and sometimes it needs to be done.
This is a curse i'm stuck with appearently.6
