I’m severely depressed and unmotivated as well. I watch a lot of TV. When I get sick of that, I make 3D wooden puzzles, like these dinosaurs. They take about 30-60 minutes each, and when you’re done, you’ve got a dinosaur! Rawr!

Didn’t Couldn’t see that one coming.

Can I upvote this a million times?

Interviewer: Tell me an interesting debugging story

Interviewee: …

It’s an old one, but it checks out.

Thanks!

Does tidal have the feature Spotify does where you can transfer what’s playing from one device to another? I use that somewhat frequently.

I’m the law!

The same way paper journalism is: ads. But not animated, video, in your face ads. Static images are good enough for print, they should be good enough for online journalism as well.

“Even the closest of friends can sometimes hold betrayal in their hearts.”

Thanks. You too!

My divorce. I didn’t even realize that my ex-wife was abusive until getting into the divorce process. Once I got away and started to understand, I began to take some of my power back and develop even more. I went from terrified of her to strong and confident.

I have a pillow from Sutera that solved my neck and shoulder pain. It also works well with my CPAP.

I’ve seen this movie. It did not end well.

SB 1780, would make accusing someone of being homophobic, transphobic, racist or sexist, even if the accusation is true, equivalent to defamation, and punishable by a fine of at least $35,000. If passed, the bill would severely limit and punish constitutionally protected free speech in the state.

W. T. F?!?!?!?!?

We have given them written explanations, had meetings, shown screenshots. But nothing gets through.

They’re not paying attention, then. If they used it for a week, they’d probably just write off any problems as “eh, that’s how it’s designed.”

Some folks just don’t get that there’s more to writing software than the code. The human element is super important.

I think every coder should be forced to use their own software for one month out of every year they work on it (and be able to do the job that goes with it because how the fuck else are they going to get a clue?).

At my company, all developers spend time every year in customer support. It gives us first hand experience with what our customers are running into and asking for. We also work directly with field consultants on their projects. It’s not exactly this, but it’s pretty close, and it works really well.

It’s already started. We just haven’t named it yet.
