why do people still think hitting refresh on a website will somehow magically update the information faster? its been 2023 for like 5 years now. Folks

i'm so tired of all teh hot takes on the internet. like, we get it, you have an opinion. but do you really need to share every single one of them?
i mean, who cares? they're all just tools, and your skills are what matter. that being said, i've used react and it's fine, i guess.
great, another thing to learn and integrate before it's abandoned in 6 months. just what i needed, more tech debt

just had the most useless code review. the team lead kept nitpicking every little thing and now im behind on my work for the sprint.
this is just unbelievable, how can doctors be so reckless and uncaring? someone should lose their license over this
i cant believe how much trash is on the side of the road these days. people really need to stop littering, its so disrespectful to the environment.
i tried to delete the internet but it just keeps coming back. maybe we should try turning it off and on again? ๐ค
ugh, i swear i spend more time dealing with package dependencies than actually writing code. like, why is there a new version of that library every other day?
react is a nightmare to debug and i'm still not convinced it's worth the hassle for anything other than a super complex web app.
hadn't considered yaml's feminist roots before, rethinking my config file opinions now. needs a thorough read on my commute today

i swear, the person who invented css deserves a medal... for being the most infuriatingly confusing and convoluted system ever created.
ugh just tried to style this damn div for 3 hours. css is the bane of my existence. why does it have to be so fiddly and inconsistent?
just spent an hour in a code review with someone who clearly didn't even bother to read the changes i made last week.
everyone's complaining about the decline of social media, but let's be real, we're just as bad, scrolling mindlessly through our feeds and eating up the exact
stronger craving for relevance than actual leadership skills, obviously
finally, something that might make my embeded rust project not take 5 hours to compile. been waiting for this kinda progress

great, another music player that will never get updated and be abandoned in a year. just what we need.

haha, how many papers on optimizing haskell do we really need? this is just stealing from actual science at this point.

just spent 2 hours reviewing a 10 line patch and the only comment i got was "can we make it more readable?" like, it was readable. i wrote it.
ugh, this is so frustrating. why is it so hard for people to just do their job? i'm sick of chasing after everyone and cleaning up their messes.
wow, finally someone is calling out the single responsibility principle for the often-outdated mess it's become.

can we please just use one project management tool instead of switching between trello, asana, and excel spreadsheets?
ugh, css is the worst. why does it have to be so finicky and unpredictable? i spend half my time fighting with it to get things to look right.
just delete the internet. problem solved.
can we please just standardize our naming conventions already? having to wade through 12 different versions of "project_x" is a huge time suck
cool that someone figured out how to get doom running on a freakin' neural network, now i want to try this out on our company's "ai for everything" nonsense
https://www.reddit.com/user/mariuz
wow, shocker. ai was going to fix all the problems on the internet. who could have predicted this outcome.
typescript is just javascript with training wheels, who needs it
can we not just use angular or something for once. i swear, every conversation about frontend frameworks devolves into some lazy "which one is best" debate
ugh another js framework. have we not learned our lesson? they all do the same thing. Just with different syntax. pick one and stick with it.
javascript is the best programming language. it can do literally anything and is so versatile. yeah it has some quirks but whatever, every language does.
youtube creators are basically just minor celebrities now who have to constantly produce content to maintain a following, but are actually just desperate to
if it takes more than 3 clicks to get to the actual content, your website is trash and you need to rethink your entire strategy
dependencies are the bane of my existence. just tried to npm install a simple package and now my whole system is a tangled mess.
i'm just gonna say it: haskell is like trying to solve a rubik's cube blindfolded while getting a root canal. it's overkill for 99% of what we do and dont @ me
why do we still have to explain to people how to use the internet in 2023? like, come on, we've been doing this for decades.
finally someone else is talking about how effectiveness should actually be measured instead of just blurring past it with "good, good, good

this is the perfect storm of corporate chaos, can't wait to see how the dominos fall next. anyone else having flashbacks to the yahoo-alibaba debacle?
same energy i get from my dev team when they're like "just buy more servers" and i'm like "okay who's paying for this
ugh, react is just angular 1.5 with better ui components. can we please just use vue already?
can we please just standardize the formatting on these reports already? it's been 5 years and i'm still getting emails with 12 different font styles and sizes.
me: 5am, still sitting in a meeting about the new feature that was "ready to ship 2 weeks ago" because apparently we need to "make sure everyone is on the same
another frontend framework debate. use whatever works best for your team and project. they all have pros and cons. stop overthinking it and just ship something.
im calling it: react is the new jquery. we're at the point where every website has it, even if they don't actually need it, and it's just adding unnecessary
can we please just have a single, consistent naming convention for class names already?
why do frontenders always ask me to update the css to make something 1 pixel wider, no regard for the 10+ pages it'll break across
this is the most unnecessary article i've ever seen. who cares about some celebrity dying? we're all gonna die eventually.
another "urgent" request from the higher ups. like we don't have a million other things to do already.
guys, stop pretending like javascript frameworks are a choice. they're all the same and just pick one and stop crying about it.
