I will kill the next dev who justify its shitty code by quoting random dev methods/rules/ideas/cool-names he found online like "clean architecture" or "MVVM".10

Hey everyone in all seriousness I am gonna be out of the dev field now - hopefully forever. I’m back in school now and hopefully will become employed in emergency response. Before dev, I have had jobs where I could directly help people with their troubles and I could reduce a lot of chaos. I really enjoyed it and I want to kind of steer my life back towards that. I find that while I was an employed dev, I felt like I was contributing a lot towards corporate greed, this wealth gap problem, and a bunch of other stuff. It all felt morally wrong (to me - not judging here). I also felt the worse I have ever felt in a job - constantly burned out, depressed, lonely, sleep deprived, and almost even ashamed of myself of how I constructed my life thus far. I had some good times meeting some cool ass people in some cool ass places tho.
Now, even though I’m still sleep deprived and EXTREMELY poor, I’m very happy now. I am excited to start this thing I’m more passionate about. It feels good to not feel my head hurt every day from trying to fix shit that will always break anyways. I feel so relieved to be away from the meaningless turbulence of it all. Just wanted to share my lil success here!!9 -
TL;DR: This year I changed job to a quite toxic company and because I have to work for two different clients in parallel I'm burning out. I need suggestions about telling about my mental health to my employer or request to change clients because of their incompatibility
----
At the begin of this year I changed work from a small startup (which was nice, but they didn't pay very much) to a consulting company and since then I'm experiencing my first burnout.
Just to give some context, the first month or two months in this new position were nice: the project I've been put on was difficult, but the other people in the team were very kind and helped me navigate through the codebase. After there quiet months, I've been put on a second project (in parallel with the first one), same domain but different client and the two clients must not know that I work for other clients. This doesn't work particularly well because both of the clients require me a full--time presence and both the teams have the tendency to call you without any warning and without setting up a meeting on calendar and beacuse of this I pass 3/4 of my day on such useless meetings (which many of them I have to be present at the same time, and sometimes one meeting is in English and one in Italian) without getting any job done and now both my leads are getting frustrated by my delays.
To make it all worse, when I was contacted from the headhunter it was for a mobile developer position, but because of my previous position my employer thought that I could temporary work on one java project because there was scarcity of developers and I could be a nice fit.
I'm not sure if I sum up my situation clearly of it's confused (I'm sorry about that), but tomorrow I plan to call my employer to tell him that I can't take it anymore and something has to change, I just don't know if I should put it on the incompatibility of the two clients, my mental health or both9 -
Seriously how great is breakcore? In my life as a Belgian, Im more into this french rave techno scene, very loop-based with a high distorted all-encompassing 808 tailed kick and not a lotta breaks but then I met this dude in Bulgaria (fun fact he used to go to the same bar I was going as a kid coz my da could smoke joints there) who was a junglist and introduced me to those wave-editing techniques to manipulate breaks (the ones from hip-hop basically).
But then I met this girl from spain who told me there was a breakcore scnee there coz of all the brits so I started listening to that. Its reminding me of that free jazz vibe somehow3 -
The handle on the faucet in one of the bathrooms broke off today. You can still operate the faucet with some finger strength. It is just difficult. We also got a reminder today that we are not to be streaming video or music using the company wifi. They ask that we use our own bandwidth on our phones.
So on the bathroom door where the faucet handle is broken I placed this sign:10 -

Some old tech: exists and functions just fine for 20+ years.
Some tech bro: Yeah we gotta throw this out the window and re-invent the freaking wheel.13 -
I made a Product in my free time (after work hours)
it's a SAAS thats supposed to be an add-on to apps and websites
Added it to my own apps (what better than Test in prod) and over months fixed its pitfalls n ngl, even im impressed by its core tech and resilience
But thats kinda it -.- Ik I should make a landing page and launch it etc but I lost the will the day the "core tech" was 99% perfected
Im a Product guy not a businessman T__T
It's the weirdest mental block ive had in a while ffs.8 -

Javascript may not be the sexiest language of all. It's not the easiest. It is deeply flawed. But you know what it have? Street cred. Javascript is the language of the everyday man who wondered what the "view source" button was doing, not some elitist comp-sci student or the wook foot-goo eater who last had sex with the prostitute his uncle paid him for his 30th birthday.8

The fact that I can buy a game for $70 price tag today, and still run the risk of it getting taken away from me, by the company that built it, is why I'll always pirate games.
If buying is not owning, then pirating is not stealing.16 -
Just watched Fight Club for the first time last night (which probably seems insane as a 31 year old cis white male I know but I was raised poor/white trash and didn't really watch movies)
So, so glad we no longer have that cliche movie premise of "ugh I hate my stable, well-paid job with benefits and my stable, comfortable life UUGGGGHHH"
However the idea of a bunch of sexually repressed, generally soft office workers beating the shit out of each other is pretty hilarious on its own14 -
I have switched from Chrome to Firefox in steps to de-google myself. I missed some of the features but I found a workaround apart from the Chrome Netflix Extended extension. I binge watch lots of Netflix series and after a while seeing intro again and again quite frustrates me. With Chrome, I didn't have to worry about that but with Firefox there weren't any add-ons which works properly so this weekend I decided to make my own.
If you are a Firefox user, please give it a try and let me know.

Things I don't think I ever want to own. Large battery powered vehicles: bikes, cars, trucks, etc. They seem to be quite good for carbon reduction though. People don't seem to survive the fires they cause.6
