That's awful. Sincere condolences, man

May he rest in peace

Funny I come across this rant when I was lamenting the lack of function overload in TypeScript yesterday. Now I see how retarded my code looks because of using type unions as replacement I'll never wonder what its purpose is ever again

@lorentz Not with the sheer amount of versions they're releasing these days. Comforted me in my idea Google really has the focus and speed of a squirrel on coke
And if the remark was applied solely to the dynamic with the IDE, it really isn't that terrible

@GiddyNaya Got to disagree. I'm using Android Studio with Flutter while my colleague uses VSCode. The number of things he can't do (launch on a physical device / emulator with ease, various refactoring options, Flutter related operations without having to use the terminal…) with it is ridiculous

>came to the pub for some peace and quiet

There. That's your problem

@oiledwheels I'm also not prepared, in fact most of us aren't. And whatever alternative job we'll have to pick, you can bet it will be horsecrap, because everything nice will be automated or saturated

Everyone who think it will be a perfect utopia with more vacations and leisury time, do yourself a favor and take as a good resolve for this beginning of the year to quit smoking whatever drug you're on. Capitalism will ruin everything, as it always does

How ironic that yours died the same day I had mine of exact same model first delivered

You want to make the world a better place? Unless your business is very web oriented, use actual technologies instead of the web shit soup

@Demolishun Don't worry, I don't hate myself enough to ever think about working for one

@AnxiousADHDGuy I wonder if I'll have anything worthy of a rant but regardless of the apparent global good impressions, I know for sure that I'll have things to complain about…

//teaser//

Was sent to a client (yeah, during my internship) to help maintain a mobile app, and oh boy. Now I know what the output of a one-man team firefighter dev who himself has to maintain an existing codebase relying on a weird-ass homecooked design pattern looks like. And I'm still in the team when I'll start

That's a W I D E coffee there

Updooted also for Vera. Didn't know this scene could bring good meme material

@d4ng3r0u5 "Motherfuckeeeeeeeer! UGH!"

Agreed until I saw the last line. So you complain about weight to prefer a heavier solution?

@Lensflare With all I read here and on some other places, meeting all these conditions seem to be a dream now. But I hope you're right

@volttide As an alternative I used Java NIDE, free and open though not maintained anymore unfortunately. I'd say it's the only well-made Android IDE I've seen without any bullshit

@Demolishun Same for me, my tone and intonation changes significantly depending of the group of people I'm talking to

@burningcandle Right on, I even found a rescue boat while scrolling through comments of an article about the SO sale: https://codidact.org/
It looks great, but should be even better when more known

Hey, congratulations !

Late to the party, but who cares? Anyone needs to scream at any time

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

@johnmelodyme (Stands for Project Manager)

What about joining for… rants?

@Jilano They prey on the hopeless but also on the plain blind. Sender's mail shows they didn't even try lol

@Nanos Yeah forgot about webarchive, I'll try to find them with it. Also I'll consider this, I just wonder how this is different than downloading a webpage from the browser or automated scraping

Still use them, and I see a lot doing it. Us millenials are keeping your legacy

@gibus Your hint saved me. It's because I installed from apt directly instead of installing the latest with wget ppa and all. Now it works.
Thanks!

Good luck with getting over mathematophobia, I know the feel :P

@jiraTicket Don't forget the Microsoft account connection that sticks harder than glue

@qwwerty sfc didn't help, and I didn't hear of the latter. But if it was relevant I'd have surely found it. I took several days before fixing it

@petergriffin You're right. Because when it happens on Windumb you're fucking stuck. I talk from experience (had logonui.exe corrupt — don't ask me how — and couldn't log in at all, even in safe mode. And the repair disk didn't help. Had to copy the software from another machine to fix)
