Linux is an amazing, stable operating system.

Until you decide to upgrade it, then you realise the update failed, your DE is broken and after using Timeshift to restore the system, your GRUB decided to commit seppuku.

Guys!

I got a job offer! I start the 26th! (Assuming all goes well)

Nothing makes a dev happier than some new toys for Christmas

Happy Holidays everyone

That co-worker that erases all of your changes if there's a merge conflict.
Fuck you too buddy.

Are you ready to offer oil changes and spare parts for your software you create? And stop implementing planed obsolescence in your app you swine?

Because the European Union voted today yes for the "Right to Repair". 👍

My colleague did a "btw, I use Arch" in the daily scrum meeting. 🤣

bad programmer...

I miss reading Dev related books while relaxing at the same time

Team meetings where you go around in a circle and tell everyone what you're working on are useless. Change my mind

Last Friday i convinced my boss it was mission critical to have an IntelliJ Idea subscription for my workstation...

I mostly push yaml files to git... 😁 and i regret nothing...

So my employer just offered me a 57% raise out of the blue!
Last Friday, I got a meeting invite from the CEO (its a small 15 person company, so he looks after most of the management stuff) titled "{{myname}} - Salary Review". No agenda there. I was fuckin scared that maybe my salary will be chopped short due to the virus and shit. They recently let go of one guy in my team, and are about to hire two new guys. Also, my last raise was this January. So I didn't think any good could come out of this meeting.

I joined the zoom and he asked if I was happy with the current salary. I said "yes" like an idiot, but added that the prices in my country are rising a lot. He made smalltalk on costs of groceries and Corona and my family, and that was it. 57%.

I was smiling like a dumbass at the end of the meeting. This guy is like the Hyman Roth of this business.

Oh my god, look at this beauty. Looks like aurora borealis. Too bad this setup wasn’t successful and is already lost.

"a test can't fail if it doesn't exist" - Schrödinger's lazy developer

"we use cookies to give you a better experience on our site"

A better experience? Really?

It looks like you're using more than 100 external parties for whatever fucking reason. It is nearly impossible to disallow these, except for some stuff like analytics, which I don't like since it includes mass surveillance parties like Google and Facebook, but I'd at least, to some extent, understand that better.
But, the amount of dark pattern here is staggering and this kind of 'consent' you're using wouldn't, in a million years, hold up under the GDPR.

You know what would be a better experience? No tracking and no ads.

Go fuck your better experience (would that be a better sex experience....?)

😆 Why SQL, why are you screaming all the time?

9 months ago my boss promised I would not be working on RPA anymore.

Monday, at 12:00, my boss assigned to me the maintenance of 13 robots.
Monday, at 15:00, I was talking to a recruiter and discussing my next job.

I

SHIT.

I was expecting a 4th interview this afternoon for a position as a fullstack elixir developer.

Got a response from the CTO.
'Even if you pass all the tests with success, we could not go further because you're a junior and we're looking for a senior'

Well, dude, you've seen me 3 times and didn't understand that I was a junior ? My CV is not enough explicit ? It's written at the top of it...

So after a motivation interview, technical test, technical interview and Phoenix framework interview, they only realized yet the plot.

Good luck for your seniors to pass their knowledge to other seniors.

These green ticks always make me smile :)

What the FUCK is the point of submitting a PR, if you're going to approve my code, without looking at it, and then LEAVE ME to further refactoring.

I don't mind the refactoring. At. All.

What I DO mind, is being told "yerp, looks good" and then standing aside as I break everything.
