They were in-house but the local dev team were not working with them. Work force in that country was cheaper so i just got fired shortly after :)

Me maintaining an old codebase and implementing features for months before boss shows up one day and says the 60 remote workers have been working on an identical project which will be the one we actually use. Bruh wtf

Not even kidding, my dad watches YouTube on this smart TV and when an ad pops up he covers his eyes and screams until he finds the mute button. He then keeps covering his eyes until he can fully skip the ads.

I feel like im the opposite from a lot of people in this thread. I very rarely get upset. Like, once a year maybe? Sure, some things annoy me, but they’re rarely worth getting upset about. I think most people see me as a “funny guy” thats easy to be around.

Now I swear a lot, like very alot. And its mostly for comedic purpose or putting that tiny bit of emphasis on something, usually opposite from what i actually mean. Saying something like “a fuckton” usually means i had 2 apples instead of 1, where if i actually had way too many apples i would be more descriptive about it and not swear. People tend to take things more seriously that way.

I think casually swearing can help with not getting upset to begin with while also being more expressive if used correctly. I feel like i can get emphasis on what i say and having some form of relief from just swearing casually, which helps negate the build up of annoyances and eventually actually getting upset.

I very rarely swear in an insulting manner, i find it way more insulting and effective to use words that are very “unharmful” for that purpose, such as calling someone a clown or gnome. In the right setting those are devasting. I dont think it translates very well to english, but just imitating a 10yo and saying “your mom” is also just insanely funny as an insult because of how inherently stupid it is.

Same at my new place, i tend to take a shorter lunch and leave earlier, i usually get into office at 8am or slightly before

This is very valid but in our case we dont really store any important data on the computer. We make digital timetable signs for bus stops and train stations, the computers we build and put inside are just a base image we flash onto the disk and set hostname and IP on. Then they all connect and set themselves up via our servers and pull any displayed data from our actual main servers.

In this case its sad that it didnt actually restart, that means our client has to drive out and deassemble the entire sign. But it seems to be a failing disk so it had to be replaced either way.

We did try that, it just have us Permission Denied

I would use the man pages but my working laptop uses Windows and since the system died i dont have any way to check them until I get home.

Thank you a lot for the answer though, that does explain a lot!

Pascal or camel case for code, snake case for files and screaming snake case for globals

Got one of those rare holo hieroglyph Mew pokemon cards stolen when i was a kid, i still think about it.

Just started a new job last week. Ive been in the industry for 3 years so not completely junior but getting in to a new codebase is always rough. Especially when only 1 huge library file is documented, every component is cluttered af and most variables and parameter names are 1 character long.

Doesnt help that functions are 100 lines either when each the parameter names makes the logic incomprehensible.

Bringa back Hats! Ive said this many times, but we need to bring Möre headwear into fashion. Hats go hard.

This. Starting at the company in 2023 and first task being to “start enhancing a 5 y/o project” seemed fine until I realized the project was not even using git, was being publically hosted online and contained ALL customer invoices and sales data. On top of this i had to pull the files down from the live server via FTP as it didnt exist anywhere else. It was kinda wild.

Using Filezilla FTP client for production releases in 2024 hit me hard

This is the most banger tattoo though. Random answers to a test that could potentially exist in the future.

Fair, but they wrote “states” which immediately maked me think it’s the US.

Not related but I’ve had some dual booting issues aswell. Turns out that the drives mounted in Linux didn’t properly unmount on shutdown so when trying to access them on Windows they wouldn’t be accessible.

Just some info for anyone that might be having issues

Yeah I’ve heard about this issue aswell, my friend has something similar going on

Could be, I drank more beer before, recently it’s mostly been ciders. I rarely drink wine though, I’d rather have more beers/ciders that I enjoy the taste of than drink to feel intoxicated. Occasionally I drink a glass of whiskey or two on the weekends and that’s usually not an issue.
