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.

Very valid. I really enjoy it so far. No matter what browser im on i always spend a new minutes setting everything up. Might actullly harden this some extra. Probably wont get close to librewolf levels but i night be fine with that depending on much i manage to fix.

I found out they have a compact mode which completely hides the sidebar until you move your cursor to the edge. I didnt personally like it but maybe thats something for you?

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 indeed the appropriate reaction to being banned on counter strike. Joke aside you could just lock the entire functionality of adding an account to your family if someone got caught cheating though.

This looks very bandy. Thanks allt for the link!

They do seem to be talking a lot about privacy for not having done anything. And i think they mentioned having disabled most of Firefox default telemetry and such. I will have to double check that when i get ho.e though.

I mean, someone should get banned from cheating. I can see why this happen though, since the account playing does not own the game the account which has the game linked gets banned instead. If the account cheating has the game they are instead playing on their copy and that gets banned instead (i assume).

However the ban should be linked to the account and not the copy of the game. I do not understand why this isnt the case. Maybe because someone could just make a new account and link that to play on instead, therefor never having to buy more than one copy of the game while cheating.

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.

In Sweden we just say “vvv”

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.
