As if the tech stack weren't enough, now they also have personality requirements too. LOL.

I have to say it makes me sick watching corporate groups of literal sheep walk behind each other, all wearing the e-x-a-c-t-l-y same style of clothing (not just suits but even just the same style), walking in line behind each other in pairs of two, like they're in a strict elementary school or something. It's sad to watch and I don't want to be part of such herds.

I fucking hate C. C is bullshit and I use nasm/masm whenever I can.

e.g. In assembly, rax means rax. It's the value stored in the register. [rax] means the value stored at rax is going to be used as a pointer. This is simple and intuitive.

In C you get the weird star symbol. "int* i" means i is a pointer (I guess). and then there's suddenly i* = 123. you know, I forgot how it worked. Why the fuck is it so cryptic?

If everyone was slowly being poisoned by something and will all die of cancer and general disintegration but they don't know it and think everything is fine

similarly you noticing this, everyone sanctions and ostracizes and makes fun of you. or worse, tries to take advantage of you even though you're seriously disabled

upon figuring out how to cure yourself, would you go back to those who dismissed you, ridiculed, dehumanized, and tried to steal from you? Would you want to help them? Or would you hope they dig their heels in even deeper and die faster, for all our sakes?

especially if they're authority figures who discriminated against you. They killed people. They keep killing people. Is it more moral to encourage them down the path of self-destruction; accelerationism? The numbers and humanity's quality of life will be overall better if you just play into their biases and encourage them to keep doing the self-destructive things they keep authoritatively insisting others do to themselves...

Or should one have hope, some kind of faith in humanity, and try to save everyone no matter how they showed their characters to be? In my experience I've never seen someone's character change... so by saving a bad person, this implies you'd make the world worse...

inb4 I use devrant for SEO advancement myself...

actually I both want attention and not. The duality of man.

Our jackets are made from original leather and these replica jackets are produced following thorough research. You can find dozens, maybe hundreds of stores online selling leather goods made here. Unfortunately, often times these stores try to sell items using screenshots and movie stills to show you what you want to order, but without showing an actual example of the piece they have made.

Uttarakhand or Devbhoomi (Land of Gods) is a place where various temples are found and devotees visit throughout the year. There are several religious places and tours in Uttarakhand where devotees pay visits, but one of the best places for such a visit is Char Dham Yatra. Char Dham Yatra is a tour to the four sacred places of Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath situated in the mountains. In the Hindi language, ‘Char’ means ‘four’ while ‘Dham’ implies ‘religious destination’.

:grumble:

Guys,... as you may know: don't start studying for certificates for skills just because a job application lists them... because in the end, there's just HR on the other end and they don't care about if you are certing it up, they just care you have experience. Sad but true.

Just study for yourself... lol

just cracked a new girl. i now have a 4 girl roster that I'm rotating. 1 of them is my ex blonde whore. 1 is a full gf of 1.5 years. one is a random side ho. and this new girl is also a side ho for now but leaning towards gf #2. none of them know about each other.

Okay if you think there's too much to learn in tech

I have now learned there's far far too much to learn in writing

I never even found tech overwhelming... You get the basics and just stack them all the time. Writing, though, everybody invents some totally new thing that's totally original. I am drowning. And then you get to the culture... People just shame you for not knowing everything that has ever happened in the culture. I've consumed a lot of culture, probably more than others, and I can't consume all of culture. It's like pornhub. People upload more of it than you'd ever be able to consume. Art can't sustain itself under its own weight. And you're not considered serious, even by plebians, unless you consumed hundreds of years of every media on one specific topic.

You can't even make the argument that they're looking for an Angular engineer with 12 years experience when angular's only been out 3 years.

It's been out since before you were even born; what do you mean you haven't seen it?!

so.. We're building an AI agent (severe understatement, but ok). It utilizes the MCP to leverage tools, obviously. A (non-developer, but techy) colleague has been working on analysing Agentic Memory patterns, solutions, tools, read some articles, scientific too, spoke A LOT with LLMs about it, kept throwing links at me telling basically "read this. We definitely need this, I feel very strong about that. We must have a very strong memory layer", etc. - even prepared a 22-pages long draft for what this memory mechanism must look like, data structures, database schemas, etc.

fine.. I keep on stashing those, deferring for later reading.

Today I noticed that I have a fairly clear MCP isolation, so I figured.. why not.. And asked him to implement that memory mechanism as its own MCP server, so our agent could leverage it.

Turns out, now we need to do more research, perhaps the current patterns and solutions are not the best approach, we need to discuss more about that, think more about it, and this type of thinking is not for him

:)))))

At this early age of AI now everyone and their uncle is a developer :)

P.S. If you're reading this - sorry buddy :D But that's what it looks like :D I'm sure we'll work smth out ;)

New lesson learned: In Java, object creation only happens at runtime.

A a = new B();
a.doSomething();

Compiler steps:
- checks if A exists
- checks if B exists
- checks if B is subclass of A
- compiles (code -> Bytecode)

Runtime:
- checks if B overrides doSomething() of A
- executes the overridden version

I don't miss flat design.

every time I get a mass-sent corporate "casual" email with my real first name at the top I feel like Will Smith at the Grammy's

wait what

people keep writing about having a hacker mindset... this blog in particular actually gave examples. and it's just "don't believe what people say" and can generally be summed up to cut the process to that 20/80 rule, avoid institutional / expert knowledge because it's bogus and full of false dogma and myths

I got all this in spades!

I'm so confused though.

I loved video games -- because if I broke the rules and it worked, well I got the goods. but when a friend of mine kept badgering me about board games, which I found annoying; why do I have to keep track of the rules in my head? I'm very lazy you see. well when I found the loopholes in the rules and used them... suddenly everyone turns on you and redoes what they meant by the rules

and I've found real ambiguous life to be like those board games. if you break the rules, even suggest it, everyone sanctions you

so how is this the trick? how does it make any sense?

I love cold systems because they're unopinionated but people really love their rules, and it doesn't matter how good you are you're just offensive scum if you're not doing their dogma. I feel so stuck in this. something has a bug somewhere

For better performance, visit https://dr.molodetz.nl. The site now enables intelligent local caching of resources, with a 1-minute local cache for HTML content. It successfully proxies all external domain resources (e.g., avatars), caching them while excluding API responses to ensure notifications remain current. All resource patches are done decently using beautifulsoup, no regex shit.

It brings back the original devRant experience! Yes, avatars work again on opened threads but not on the feeds list / notification list, those are rendered by JS. Could patch that but for now out of scope.

DevRant is slowly becoming jestdotty's diary

@Lensflare I did had an abuse report for discord.app.molodetz.nl > it's just a proxy to fuck over awesomemeest. But abuse indeed, they're talking about all the crawlers. Imagine, the traffic is so high, even discord considers it abuse.

this is the first year doing taxes is uneventful... I am so freaked out by it

so I don't have to try to get access to my account on a website that randomly can't take in valid information for hours a day for 2-4 weeks?

the login just WORKED?! I didn't need to send a picture of my passport and the AI telling me I don't look like myself on suspicious as hell websites until I'm locked out?

it even PULLED PREVIOUS YEARS of information?

I have literally never had previous years pull ever succeed

here I was setting aside at least a full day at best but it's taken me under an hour

I have never heard of this and I am scared

government is too powerful if it suddenly figured out how to fix its technical issues. surveillance state now. omens of darker things to come. THE END IS NIGH

It is easy to recognize a real hacker. It is the Snek icon in their start menu.

Fuck @Lensflare. To everyone else, see you on Snek!

@Lensflare logged in once, disliked the star background and logged out. Bitch.

My god, I was the whole night cuddling and then I found out it was just my dick laying next to me. Akwaaard.

Even though I've earned peanuts my entire career, the stress of selling one phone is incomparable to how seamless software income came

Sure, management, deadlines and bugs are a pain in the ass missing in enterprise. The alternative involves sourcing from a reputable supplier, getting it to your end in one piece, praying for no defects both now and after sale, then the hardest part: finding a demand outlet. If you're rich, you rent a shop at a strategic location. If you're like me, online is your best shot. After pouring in tremendous amounts into ads or going organic, you have to sift through 100s of unserious trolls and convince the other person that they're better off buying off you than going offline anyway

But the essence of this post is that per successful sale after all this, the profit comparatively equals my daily wage as a software engineer. It amuses me more than it saddens me but I continue striving to eke out triumph. Almost everybody inside the market are more successful than I am, which makes it even funnier that I'm caught in the center of the Venn diagram of paupers across both vocations. On a more serious note, something doesn't add up in their apparent narrative. I suspect it's one of Money laundering, Sales volume, Robust customer base. or something else entirely

We recently merged a different department in our department and all 4 people are now in our office room (still comfortable space now).

But one of the new people plays his music on a JBL box and then uses a noise cancelling headset to listen to different music. Where is the respect for others :')

Update: I failed at the System Design interview.
Major facepalm as this was supposedly my wheelhouse, but I guess I underperformed.

This was step 3 of 5. You know the drill.

It took like 4 days to hear back from them, so I think it was not an immediate "NO" but a no still.

It hurts, because I was supposed to ace this, not fail. I was counting on me. So I kinda let myself down this time.

They were nice enough to give constructive feedback. Like 6 pros and 2 cons, but the cons were heavy on their eyes I suppose.

Anyways, kinda sad, I'll get over it.

Okay what is this shit.

You apply for a job, they dangle the carrot on you for over a month, cancel multiple appointments, finally you have an interview, they seem happy. Then they go on vacation two weeks.

In the end they end up rejecting me because of 'internal decisions'.

bull shit. Shit bull. Fuck cluck fuck muck.

I'm convinced Microslop is now 100% staffed by vibecoders, because what PM/dev/CTO/etc... with ANY real-life experience, in their right fucking mind would approve to forcefully change every user's theme for VSCode to a new one?!

(I mean i know why, they are desperate for validation because they dont actually do any real work, so they went full manager mode and wanted to show off their new “dark 2026” theme by forcing everyone to look at it)

What the fuck ms teams.
