Congratulations to the devrant app developer

I can tell it was written by a decent dev

Where other lazy things like graphical browsers fail when my phone is being throttled via my high speed data running out, somehow this app runs on the equivalent of 90s dial up speeds

Thanks for something to do lol

When did "9-5" become 8-5, lunch is unpaid?

It's been a while since I've said it

Fuck AI, Fuck Sam altman, Fuck Open AI, Fuck Microsoft

Fuck any other chatbot company that exists in today's world

Im so drunk right now no cap fr fr

And fuck you too kanyewest formerly Alexanderr. Yeah you'd think we'd forget didn't you?

Do you use windows, Linux, or macOS?

It fucking grinds my gear to a cylinder that people just cant seem to make calendar invites in Outlook and just email me 5 times with additional info that i then have to copy-paste to the event!

Spent 4 hours on call to explain the whole thing to you yesterday. All that time to drive one fucking diagram and a short list of features & specs into your stupid, fat, greasy head. You said you understood it and that you agree with everything I said.


Yet today you’re acting like it never happened, and you keep insisting on the original specs you “agreed” had to be amended yesterday.


Why the hell would you do that, you retard? Didn’t we spend the entire day discussing it? Are you a fucking goldfish?


When it comes to you, it’s always one of the two: you either understood nothing and were nodding along (for 4 hours straight), or you just pretended that you were listening and agreeing, thinking that the “problem” that is myself will go away if you let me talk. Neither of those things makes you a person worth keeping around and working with.


I’m so grateful that this BS happened several years ago, and now I’m at the stage where I don’t have to explain anybody anything, because one businessman that didn’t have penis size insecurities (unlike everyone I was working with previously) dared to just let me cook. The bet paid off, who would’ve thought!

I have seen many debates on how children are taught but rarely about what they are taught. This reminds me of my mother who used to tell Jehovah’s Witnesses knocking on the door that ‘we’re Church of England’. We weren’t and our family never saw the inside of a church except for weddings and funerals (thank you God). But my mother had sorted out our official spirituality with the holding position of ‘we’re Church of England.’ In the same way, most people don’t question what is taught in schools any more than my mother thought about religion. It was like just ‘there’. We lived in England and it had a Church so ‘we’re Church of England’ was enough without delving into detail, thank you. Most people treat education just the same. It’s a school and that’s enough delving into detail, thanks very much. What goes on there? They have lessons and stuff. What lessons and stuff? Well, they’re taught what they need to know. And what’s that? Well, lessons and stuff. Phantom Self has an image of how things are, an image supplied by the program, but for the most part knows or seeks precious little detail about anything

I just had the most confusing error ever where clang ast randomly replaced classes with just int in type signatures

...wat? I guess the class only has one int field so maybe there's a cpp rule that requires replacing classes with their only field or something?

But when I add other fields it doesn't change. Even if the class has no int fields, it's still replaced by int in the ast

....

Yeah turns out I had the definitions in the wrong order and clang just uses int for unknown types instead of... you know maybe raising a fucking error

Thanks clang...

What shall it be today?
- AoK returning
- retoor shilling python
- kiki posting about her diet
- Me shitposting about devrants people once more
- All of the above

Microsoft thats not a terminal, that five dotnet's in a powershell trenchcoat!

Me (code review): this isn't good, sometimes it duplicates stuff. If you move it over here it won't be duplicated.

Dev: it's useful, it's not quite the same as that other thing, sometimes it's different

Me: If you move it over here it won't be duplicated.

Apparently instructions were unclear the first time...

I have been told to create smaller PRs, so now every big PR has a few other smaller ones associated. Hope my manager will be happy.

TeamLeader2: Mister IHateForALiving, client is reporting a bug, we need you to check out what is happening
IHateForALiving: I'm on it, anything I should know before I start?
TeamLeader2: just check the logs, they should tell you pretty much everything you need to know

The logs:

Drinking gluhwein 9:00 in the morning on a Wednesday. It's snows outside and I have special snow in my stash. This will be a fun day. Isn't life beautiful?

Edit: oh f, it's Tuesday. As you can see, very relaxed.

Can you read this secret message?

Have a nice day!

In CSS, never ever enlarge anything by hover. There will exist a set of cursed cursor positions somewhere on the edge of fully zoomed out and fully zoomed in states, which will make your UI element twitch between two states at 60+ FPS.

If you want this effect, wrap the element you want to enlarge in a wrapper whose size won't change. Add :hover state on the wrapper, not the element, and change the element in that selector. It will make the curse go away.

wrong:
.zoom:hover { transform: scale(1.1) }

right:
.zoom-wrapper:hover .zoom { transform: scale(1.1) }

LOVE how these companies are keep publishing their "AI models" without verifying or explaining their architecture, their data collection process, and any validation scores.

Like, I am to just take your word for it working "better" because of a study done by the school of PSYCHED(🤪)?

I love waiting 30 minutes for phsyx to finally fucking be done compiling my god can you just speed uuuuuup

Arrays should be indexable by a float!!!!!

Pick your warrior

When you quit your job but have to work your notice period. Fuck this shit.

nervously waiting to see if you get the layoff email

unfortunately also need to continue working in the meantime

someone called me schizo earlier today and this has been happening increasingly so I actually made an attempt to look into it

it was a Russian guy and he claimed it happens normally and I just give that vibe. ok. so go on wiki and switch schizo wiki page to Russian. the Russians have so much more nerdy wiki pages and I just love it

tldr; schizo isn't really a real thing. the correlation is life trauma and social exclusion, and you have more dopamine in the limbic (emotional wanting) part of your brain than the neocortex (thinking, planning) part of your brain and this burns out your emotions and gives you apathy but also gives you hallucinations and neocortex atrophy because no dopamine for adequate thinking

and the anglosphere says 80% genetic... but Russian wiki says if you backtest there's zero genetic correlations (and also very long tirades about how unreliable diagnosing anyone goes... also medication worsens outcomes and CBT and supportive environment cures people fine HMMM)

so basically it seems like... a lifetime of wanting things emotionally but no matter what you do you're not allowed to have them and them's the rules, malforms brains into apathy, delusional thinking, and underpowered logicking ability. so then the doublebind theory really does drive people insane... and schizophrenia doesn't really exist. there was also a curious theme of schizos being "frustrated" which tracks with this theory

idk people keep posting such non-dev things on here

oh yeah wtf, they do insulin comatose therapy? it actually works also. the Russian wiki says it doesn't but apparently if you apply insulin to the brain the limbic system that has high dopamine in schizophrenia has a reduction of dopamine... because the recycling neurons in that area will start recycling the dopamine fast if you give them insulin. so it would literally work. I don't know about pumping someone so much full of insulin that they go into a coma though. i've never even heard of that. BUT SO COOL

... also there was a quote on there about how neurologically they can't tell the difference between depressed brains and schizophrenic brains lol

I can‘t respect religious believe from an intellectual point of view and I believe that religion does more harm than good in general.

But, I do respect the opinion that some atheists have, about religion being good for some people and that it can improve their lives.
I strongly disagree but I respect this opinion.

I have recently realized this after watching some stuff about atheism and theism.

Scared Christians like to say “God doesn't make mistakes” when discussing trans people. Well, you're right: God doesn't make mistakes, so he made me trans to test your ability to love.
