It's the craziest part of quantum physics. "Why is this stuff having the observed behavior?"

Based on all evidence and theory, the answer is that it quite literally just does.

We got Mr. Really Fun At Parties here huh?

Never heard of Gallows Humor eh?

"must do now" orders are by default responded to with "oh yeah, on who's authority?"

So I feel that.

Dude that's awesome thanks!

Wait a second

This is my daily experience with ADHD

Didn't Domino's do a stupid Pizza insurance thing?

I'm so glad he pointed out the compiler optimizing the If statements. A lot of coworkers seem to forget that the compiler is doing a lot of that work for us now, and some of the code becomes unreadable as they try to make it "more efficient."

Bro, stop, you can't beat a machine at machine stuff

How was this not obvious when the panic set in with the pandemic.

It's never about productivity, it's always about increasing value.

Is it a multi species pandemic yet? I missed 2020-2021 so bad. I loved not being around people.

The amount of technical correctness in this post is out of this world

Man, Mao's policies got so many people killed that "only" 3-4m people died of famine.

He's got an incredible kill count.

This is making my brain hurt

Counter counter point: a great number of dicks have touched a vagina

See here I was thinking that's be crazy but I'd rather do that

I'm pretty certain most of my work inevitably ends up being related to a time issue

Ah, well, blessing in disguise then. For a good chunk of time software engineers were in demand. For whatever reason, I can't remember if it was embedded or application level though.

That's one thing I appreciate about Lemmy. Without a doubt you are all people of logic.

One of the things that wasn't too high up on my complaints but I have the opportunity to complain now about: I had a serious plan ready to apply to immigrate to Canada. I'm in Software, I was learning French, financially sound and healthier.

Then my ex wife fucks a dude I don't know and of course we already have a kid. No more going to Canadia.

Hahaha, like the Ventricular Assist Devices.

They bore a one-inch diameter hole in the heart, suture a BLDC impeller motor (VAD) on, then cut into the aorta or whatever, suture fancy material stuff to a tube that then redirects the blood flow through the motor. And a fancy cable that exits your abdomen and connects to the electronics.

It was the single most disturbing thing I've ever had the displeasure of working with. I really wish I didn't know how it worked.

You know, I sort of guessed where you were going when you mentioned NDAs, and I was still caught off guard.
