This was a really honest and nice read. I also appreciated the last paragraph. Personally I work at a FAANG adjacent big tech company and dream of quitting every fucking second

Yah it’s a bit wild. I had an internship there 10 years ago. The tech was fine (same shit you see at any tech company). The vibe however was just like — wow this place was probably cool 50 years ago

There was no data loss in this incident. There is literally one guy crawling the forums and twitter bitching despite CF confirmation he lost no data. Personally long time R2 user and it’s fantastic. Seems the “outage” affected temporary ava

Honestly SO helped me a lot in Uni 10 years ago. However I was banned 5+ times for just asking a normal question with attempts at answering. Can’t say I’m surprised. It was not welcoming, massively exclusive and had a rude community. RIP

My insurance says ambulance rides are covered 100%. Apparently most are out of network though, which the people have no choice of choosing (obviously). I was sent a post insurance $8000 bill. After months and months of arguing they said it

I fainted once and my wife called an ambulance as I was unconcious due to Covid. I was fully aware when the ambulance arrived and refused. They peer pressured me very hard anyways. It was a 1 mile drive and cost me $14,000

When the “big one” hits Seattle, the PNW is absolutely cooked. Not to fear monger but the fear in my eyes seems somewhat realistic. Anyone care to fact check me here?

In London now. So fucking hot. I pay like $4k USD for this flat that is barely even acceptable living accommodation on a cold day. My kitchen hit 37C. I started to look for a new flat. Nothing with AC, but trying to find something on the gr

I live in a big city and notice this a lot as well. I’m starting to reduce my headphone usage. My hearing is getting worse at a young age. I don’t think the default should be needing to have a soundtrack to your life. I’m a long distance ru

Man LITERALLY this morning I was bitching about my Forerunner. I’ve owned almost every model of these things for over 15 years and they’re all pretty bad on the software side. I feel it’s inexcusable for Garmin given they over charge, under

I have a few of these (including my sisters green ipod mini from childhood). Fun devices that make me nostalgic for the era that got me into programming. Sadly I stopped using them and gravitated back to the smartphone. Thinking about swapp

Is this your reality? I’ve noticed that while the team is way more burned out people are also way less engaged and no longer critically think about edge cases or design reviews, etc anymore.

This is a lot of fun! I’ve been wanting to learn how to make pixel games like this myself. Any tips, resources you’d recommend ?

I wonder if anyone that truly does have it has the self reflection or cognisance to admit that they do? I mean I’ve got guys on my team that actively argue that you can only develop now using AI and no alternative to development without AI

Improving my focus. Using less AI at work and reading more. Less screen time and more physical things. Spending a lot of time with friends and being outdoors, long distance running and finding more meaning in life

Agreed. Seems like it should be indefinite given they created a multi billion dollar company off the backs of these maintainers dedicating their hard earned timed for free to begin with and then trained models against their code. IMO this i
