Although im starting a job in 2 weeks, i feel depressed already. I know what awaits me and I'll know even more what is yet to come. It's going to be hell. If it was a huge amount of money like 5-6k i would be less depressed. It would solve lots of problems. But its nowhere close to that

Tomorrow morning i have to go and sign the nda and other contracts. I really dont want to. This is not what i had planned. I planned to finish my project by the end of this year asap. Now i have to speedrun and finish the whole project ASAP before i officially start this job

Although im starting a job, i feel like a failure even more than not having a job. How is this possible and why is that? Why do i feel so bad to start working a job?

Knowing already that ill sign a 3 month contract, and knowing that I'll earn exactly $3900 in the next 3 months, is fucking pathetic in this economy

Whatever Google has done wrong, I am nonetheless thankful for them releasing the patentless open-source VP9 and AV1 video codecs.

The world needs modern open-source video formats and Google has filled that void.

I know, OGG Theora exists, but that is two decades old and inefficient. VP9 is the counterpart that can compete with H.265.

I can't even

How can I increase more my ++?

Look at this retarded shit lol

When you hate js so much you end up re-implementing js in html.

Sooo I guess the Weekly Group Rant is now dead. Damn.

Is machine learning not a concept we use any more, everything is called AI?
I did not get the memo about this.

> "Just keep your battery charge between 25% and 75%, bro! It will slow the wearing of your non-replaceable battery!"

So you want me to artificially halve my useable battery capacity just so its actual capacity reduces slower?

That's the insanity with non-replaceable batteries.

A user-replaceable battery is almost like a battery that never dies. No effort wasted with tedious "battery care". No worries about weardown from high usage. Just enjoying using the device.

A house with an elevator that is just wide enough for one person standing sideways, and it can also travel horizontally between houses. Also, near an entrance, there is an orchestra pit, but it's filled with expired smoked meat. There is also a garbage chute, but it's just a well right in the middle of the house between staircases. It also has bars and mesh instead of walls, so everyone can smell everything. It can only be emptied from the roof.

Fun fact: rocket launchers are way faster than how they are depicted in movies

Four steps of professional development:
1. Simple and bad
2. Complicated and bad
3. Complicated and good
4. Simple and good

At CSS and frontend in general, I'm easy four, straight up. At architecture, I'm perhaps two in devops/docker/kubernetes/other crap and three at DB design. At electrical engineering and embedded stuff, I'm 1, no questions asked.

What are your rankings?

fuck you

11 of 17 tickets that are currently "on hold" are assigned to me...

Did you ever had a bug?

7 years of career and I NEVER introduced a bug. Maybe if you need tests / iterations / type-checking nullshit to make anything work at all, you're not in the right career. I heard uber eat is hiring, retard.

Tests are for noobs. Seriously it's the kind of thing they teach you at school and on internet fake-ass tutorial made by people who never worked in the industry but no real-life projects ever use them.

If any of you is using tests on a daily basis AND have an actual dev job (and no idiot your missile embarked shit doesn't count), I'm eating my own bowl

I officially got a call that i start a job from 15th december

That's my first job after graduating with a computer science degree, and it took exactly 421 days later.

This is depressing and sad. Im not even interested in starting a job. I hoped they will reject me just like the other 10,468 jobs. Im not used to getting accepted.

I have to finish my side project within these two weeks asap rn

I thought I had seen everything, but today a coworker tried to call one test case from another and asked me if that is an okay thing to do.

I am talking with the tech lead for a solution he is proposing for the project.

I already finished coding it yesterday because of our "just deliver" culture. Our tech lead is opposing this culture. The deadline established by the manager is basically tomorrow.

Is this right approch for a tech lead? To oppose the management established deadline?

Question for the old timers: is it possible to work as a dev for the rest of your life and be happy?

Does it get any better or is dev burnout baked into the business model of every company?
The CEO flat out admitted it was exactly that where I'm at a few weeks ago 😞
