in any other language anything is possible

in rust?

"no"

and you spend 3 months on it and turns out it's a no

this is like project #13 for me where I fail at it. the others I didn't try as long. but now I'm sure

good night

My senior just created this beauty of an API...

Mixing undefined/null values with empty strings & random hyphens for other variables. And the phone number not following standarised notation (we are a telephone provider)

Guys it have been a close call, but I would like to nominate @Tounai and @12bitfloat to be the retards of the day. Vote between the finalist by sending their name by SMS to 55544. 5USD / 5EUR per SMS.

I don't drink alcohol

The battle rages...

EVERY COMPANY IS STRAIGHT UP REJECTING OR GHOSTING AFTER GIVING A TAKE-HOME ASSIGNMENT.

I am just tired of this at this point. I have been unemployed for over two months now. I have been constantly applying to every opportunity that I see within my limits. I've also reduced my salary expectations by significant margins.

I'd have understood if I was getting rejected after the initial screening / technical interview. But I am not even getting there.

Everything is shit. I just wanna cry.

I woke up today. Stressed about the money. Stressed about the relationship. Maybe I should leave everything again and move to la corona.

Docker.
Tried very hard to like it.
Went through every possible option of making it work properly in every situation.
Ever since the licensing bullshit it has really gone to shit.

I might become a rapist instead of racist.

An act of love.

Insertion sort exists

99% of devs:

Bubble sort for the win!!

Just... use... framework-provided sort! Stop trying to do it yourself!

Everything is a fucking text.

one week back from my holidays and so far:
- 3 server outages
- 1 developer will be fired
- 2 new employees (company has around 35 employees)
- 2 employees leaving
- outsourced designs, the designer surely didn't read the feature research doc nor followed style sheet
- a small, easy feature has not yet been finished by the rest of the team
- new devOps engineer wants to rewrite our entire tech stack

But at least the CEO was doing it's best and ran away from the problems & ran 150km

think I had my first burnout

so exciting

I couldn't sleep last night and obsessively worked all day. couldn't pay attention during dinner / relaxing before sleep with people. everyone went to bed, I didn't. ended up getting up and working then trying to sleep, repeat, like 6 times. morning came, neighbours running saws and shit, eventually slept 2 hours then 1.5 hours, if even. then worked more. good morning. fuckit. then got really pissed at everything for like 4 hours and wanted to be left alone any time a person got close to me, BUT KEPT WORKING, stressing. until I realized holy shit I'm fucking miserable

now I think I'm crashing

IM SO EXCITED. I've never been so obsessed about my own incompetence at something before. I've never had this. this leads me to believe all burnout is due to people trying to fight their incompetence maybe?
people always tell me I work too much and all that but I never understood cuz I like it. maybe this is what they meant though. in which case I'm mad at all of them for incorrectly identifying my emotional state in the past grrrrr. cuz they'd use that as an excuse to rope me into doing things I didn't even find enjoyable because supposedly it was "good for me" but I thought it was fucking lame. fucking hell

i am just sad

Fuck You!

Have you ever presented an idea and been told it was dumb/ it won’t work?Only to have someone else present the same idea and everyone be amazed. 😂🤷🏾‍♂️

OH NO I GOT PUNCHED

Everyone working a non-tech/programming job I talk to finds this daily standup meetings we have utterly laughable and micromanage-y.

Someone at work thought it would be nice to replace Wednesday's standup half hour with a "Wellness Wednesday" session. We had to find something around/on our desks at home that has a lot of meaning to us and show it and tell everyone why it has meaning to us. I literally couldn't find anything here besides my trusty pistol and I was like "it would be inappropriate to flash a firearm on camera in a meeting, blah blah blah." Maybe I should do more awkward shit like this so they stop this madness.

This is getting ridiculous.

Going on holiday is just a pain in the arse.

So I'm sitting on the swings, minding my own business, seing how best I could destroy this cluster of servers, when suddenly I notice SOMEONE IS COMING FOR MY COFFEE

"hi neighbour! What you've got there"

Most actual GraphQL explanation:

1. Still uses your xhr/fetch/axios on FE
2. Just sends all the requests to single endpoint
3. On BE uses its own resolution schema to call proper controller to handle the request, rather than relying on router for that

That's all!

Just another useless layer of abstraction with its learning curve, tricks and bugs as ORMs are

just came back from the warz wife and garry have been very understanding

Nothing beats starting your work day discussing scrum...

I am surprised I didn't off myself yet

Fucked up my username.

Turn 26 tomorrow and feel like I haven't accomplished shit this last year

Anyone else burned out? I'm fucking burned out. Definitely taking a week off soon. That sort of makes it harder to get motivated though. I was humming along nicely with my new project, but got sidetracked fixing stupid shit in the legacy code and dealing with a moron in customer service, and I guess that kicked me off into a small depression. I feel like I should have worked harder in school, so that I could have gone into sales or something high paying, instead of "software engineering". With all the ass I've been kicking over the last year, I sure hope I get a raise soon.

startup idea : job offer email as a service

basically a company which will send you a fake offer letter email, so you can try negotiating better salary from your current org.
