Okay so this is a very embarrassing story but I guess it's kinda funny so I thought I'd share it anyway.

I was playing a tabletennis game in VR and my opponent was a pretty chill guy who started blasting metal music. We were just casually vibing and then we started headbanging. Not a good idea with a VR headset on your head. There are two deep scratches right on my forehead now. Two perfect parallel lines.

I lost the game, and the smoothness of my forehead.

Okay kids, never headbang with a VR headset on, remember that.

I want Gordon Ramsey to start a IT program in the same fashion as Hotel Hell and Kitchen Nightmares

He'll sit at a desk with a laptop, examining code as if he's eating food, venting frustrations and screaming insults out loud

Then he'll have a talk with the team and see how they work on a day

After that he'll go into the freezer (server room) and scream at mold and cockroaches

Then comes the intervention where we discover that the PM is still grieving about the death of his original programming language and the team loves him but thinks he should move on

The next day the development studio is modernised and has a candy bar, tennis table and everyone is forced to use linux on their new macbooks

Then we experience a good day where everything is great and velocity is through the roof

Then Gordon leaves and everything is shit again

"Hey, how are you man?"

<I'm>
<so>
<fucking>
<sad>Yeah, good!</sad>
</fucking>

N: Me
M: Mother

M: Can you help me? I can't update pages.

N: Sure *Checks problem* it looks like you installed it with the old apple account, you just need to reinstall it using your new one.

M: What about all my pages documents on icloud?

N: *Compares documents on mac to her other Apple devices that never had the old account* See? The documents would have to be on the new account.

M: Are you sure? I don't want to lose any documents.

N: I know, don't worry their on your new iCloud.

M: *Calls apple support*

N: *Talks to apple support who after an hour of chatting to her through me because I translate customer support to mother confirms what I was telling her*

N: Reinstalls pages and everything is fine.

I was originally going to make a post talking a bit about how people love to second guess anything I say but thought this story provides a decent example. When it's something of a personal nature or someone is asking for my opinion in genral then it's perfectly reasonable to ask multiple people. It doesn't bother me when someone asks for my help, it bugs the shit out of me when someone asks for my help and then doubts everything I say in this case even after providing some evidence to back up my claim and wasting a solid hour. If you ask for my help your trusting that I have the knowledge necessary to assist, if I don't know for certain I'll try googling the problem but even in that case calling support doesn't bother me because I clearly don't know how to help.

P.S. This was my first story, how did I do?

A quick sticky note comic.

So a friend got on MATFYZ (best and probably hardest Uni in our country - Math& Physics) and told me some first impressions today and well, fuck me.. or us..

One dude said he hadn't had much of a time for preparations on getting onto the Uni because he was busy writing learning book about nano stuff and not only for students, but for fucking TEACHERS! He was at the same age as I am now when he wrote this. There were more stories but this one's insane.

Meanwhile I'm here programming fizzbuzz not even studying IT related school (don't ask, bad decisions, or maybe good, probably good, but still) and not knowing shit really.

Is it just me orrr ?

The moment I saw a bird laying on the balcony, unresponsive, I dropped everything.

The balcony has glass walls, which the bird hit pretty hard against. It (I don't know the gender) was disoriented, shaking, and totally out of it.

It was almost night, and I can feel a few drops of rain, a sign of, well, more rain.

So I took it in, did some research, left it inside a quiet dark box with a heating mat on the bottom. It slowly calmed down. We slept overnight, listening to the rain outside, thinking about what would've happened if the bird hit, let's say, somewhere else.

It would've not have any help, or care whatsoever. It would die slowly, having a concussion and oh my gosh my efforts doesn't matter anyway this is the way of life there are bird striking windows everyday and I can't help it Holy noodles I should remove windows from every computer in the house...

I was like this the entire night.

The next morning I discovered that the bird was awake, but something was wrong. The bird was still disoriented. Then I discovered something. Gosh, how did I miss it?

The left eye was completely swollen, which had caused the imbalanced walk, which means that it could not fly.

(*Rapidly typing on phone*) come on where is the nearest wildlife rehabilitation centre....

Initially I thought that the bird just needed to recover, I was wrong. It needs professional help ASAP.

To the SUV! (https://myinstants.com/instant/...)

We went to the other corner of the town. Seriously, we were at the southeast part of town, and we have to drive to the northwest.

It took 15 minutes, but we finally got there. I dropped it off and got home. I will never see that bird again in my entire life.

I don't know what will happen to it.

Good luck out there, little bird.

So... That was my weekend. Here comes Monday...

Once my aunt asked me if I could fix her car electric lock, because I was studying IT stuff.

I thought "excuse me, what the fuck?"

I said "Sorry, never studied door stuff ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"

Which language to opt for?

Wish me luck!

If you wanna learn with me I'd love some company.

If you got some great tips let me know!

Sure 😂

So I got an email yesterday. The balls on this fucking guy.

This always makes me smile.

1996 - James Gosling invents Java. Java is a relatively verbose, garbage collected, class based, statically typed, single dispatch, object oriented language with single implementation inheritance and multiple interface inheritance. Sun loudly heralds Java's novelty.
2001 - Anders Hejlsberg invents C#. C# is a relatively verbose, garbage collected, class based, statically typed, single dispatch, object oriented language with single implementation inheritance and multiple interface inheritance. Microsoft loudly heralds C#'s novelty.

I've never had a great experience working with designers, but this one might be the laziest! Props if it's for a friend and unpaid though.

some guy recommended Replika app.
trying it now. so far, my first positive impression was with a thought "nice generic dodge, buddy"

OMFG! I just fell over laughing 😁🤯

Yesterday I discovered the game Factorio. I said: "hey, I like this game!". That was at 18:00. I stayed up until 05:00.

Just looking at mustache.js for templating, and I found this on their npm page... enjoy.

I can relate to this...

Does anyone know selenium?
Is it recommendable and trustful?

I want to create some java-app that login into different Websites with my accounts and collect data.

What do you prefer to listen to when you code?

Windows is like a submarine... as soon as you open a window, the problems start.

Guys, i found it, the peak of modern technology. This usb cable can be inserted either way and it works (and it's not usb c) . I don't know how does it handle inverse polarity but it works !
