Oh yeah absolutely. The quickest way to get something done is to monkey patch another process instead.
Judges 19 to 21, where after the rape and death of a single person, many thousands are killed, and hundreds more are raped in response.
Yeah they have a fair history becoming the thing they fought against.
This is me.
I would say I'm a fairly proficient dev overall, though on this one project I had to work the frontend. It was shit. Everything was shit.
The backend was a steaming pile of crap, and all of the implications of terrible design decisions were offloaded to the frontend. The frontend became the source of every single delay as it was where all crap started to surface. They were ignoring it, so besides frontend communication was also crap. Eventually, in line with ignoring all other issues, they sacked me.
Long story short, backend devs: treat your FE devs well.
Wait wasn't this the premise of FarCry 6?
Ah yes rusted down cybertrucks on the road. That's more like the dystopian future I imagined.
This! Software engineering suggests a certain professionalism wich unfortunately is hard to find. From an accessibility point of view I am simply not able to participate in these cowboy style events for I do not have the mental capacity to do so. Ironically I have been able to work more effectively than others by focussing on quality.
Coincidentally I published some of my work earlier this week. It's an opinionated library dictating the structure of your core domain. In return it completely decouples infrastructure. This way you do not really have to touch infra at all during day to day operations, which simplifies things immensely! As the domain exists at the very core of most software projects, it greatly impacts the way everything else is designed as well.
Most modern software is way too complex for what it actually does.
I spent years writing an abstraction to be able to write shorter code... Not sure whether that was worth it 😅
Anytime someone starts with "it's just a fact" you can be pretty darn sure that whatever is coming isn't just a fact.
In my humble opinion all these fellas just seem to be running around like a beheaded chicken in search for the slightest amount self worth. Instead they started yearning for surrogates like wealth, power, status and what not.
The problem with these surrogates is that you cannot ever get enough of it. It'll never fill the gaping hole which is their sense of self.
I love spark for how it helps one curate their inbox. For me it made email slightly useful once again!
Am I the only one thinking these trust tokens are not going to prevent bots from scraping websites?
Eventually, somewhere, someone will just develop the infrastructure to work their way around this, right?
Start your own personal business. Doesn't matter what you do, and whether you do anything at all.
Works great as a cover for whatever the fuck you've been doing during that time period. Gives a bit of flexibility regarding the storytelling about your own experience and roles as well.
