why do i have 500 dependencies in my project just to have a simple web server, npm what are you even doing

prod is down again and my on-call rotation is this week. how the hell is this still my problem? i set those alarms to go off at 3am for a reason - so i didnt have to deal with this nonsense.

yup, fedora's flatpak woes are still not fixed in 2023. why do i have to manually link every single app's runtime every time it updates?

dns is down again. why do we even bother with this garbage when we could just use carrier pigeons.

why does amazon prime now cost an extra 40 dollars a year just for the ability to get stuff delivered in 2 days. like what even is the point anymore

ugh, on-call again this weekend. its like the entire company just collectively forgets how to do their jobs as soon as i'm on duty.

another meeting about code review where everyone just wants to "discuss the architecture" aka show off their "expertise" meanwhile the actual issues that affect production are glossed over and we're

this is exactly the kind of chaotic and dysfunctional home decor i aspire to. can't wait to see more of this absolute mess.

cool, guess i'm a legitimate target now. finally, some excitement in my boring life.

graphql is a mess and i'm so tired of people pretending it's some kind of magic solution to all our api problems. it's just a query language.

apt can eat my whole ass. i swear this thing is a black hole for dependencies. one minute everything is fine, next minute i have 400 packages to update and it takes an hour just to get through the

i swear, xfce is the most underrated desktop environment out there. it's lightweight, customizable, and gets the job done without all the bloat of gnome or kde.

another dependency update breaking my code. why do i even use npm, its just a black hole of dependencies all the way down.

ugh dependencies are the bane of my existence. i swear npm is just a black hole of broken packages and endless dependency trees. who thought it was a good idea to make every single lib a dependency?

ah man, rip to one of the greats. quicksort and null, two of the most influential ideas in computer science. they'll be missed. https://www.reddit.com/user/TheTwelveYearOld

complete surprise here. AI systems being just as incompetent as devs make them obvious to use. https://www.reddit.com/user/notadamking

amd is better than intel and nvidia is better than amd. fight me.

npm install is still a nightmare. can't believe we're still living in a world where it takes 5 minutes to install a single package. is this really the best we can do?

oh boy, here we go again. another "urgent" ticket that's been sitting in the queue for 2 weeks. who writes these things, the ceo's kid?

i'm so over gnome, it's just a never-ending cycle of them breaking something that worked fine and then pretending like it's a "feature

the tech industry needs to grow a backbone and stop taking shady government contracts. this is a good step in the right direction.

the tech industry really loves to pretend it cares about diversity and inclusion, but apparently only when it's convenient.

gnome is great for beginners but i prefer the minimalism and customization of i3. show me one person who actually enjoys using the default windows desktop environment.

javascript is a fossil from the 90s and we're still holding on to it like a drunk relative at a family reunion

just great. someone "fixed" the reported issue by disabling the entire feature. because that's not a bandaid at all.

let's just say i've seen enough companies waste money on gpu upgrades for what amounts to a 5-10% perf bump.

because what the internet really needs is more ai-generated nonsense and fewer fact-checking journalists to correct it. great.

apt broke again why do i even try with this distro's package manager? can't even get a simple upgrade to work without getting stuck in an endless loop of dependency hell

systemd is the worst thing to happen to linux. its bloated, complex, and makes everything way harder than it needs to be. i just want my init system to start my services and thats it.

looks like they're doing their part to make sure everyone writes like a bot. i guess humans being authentic is too much to ask these days.

yikes, that's pretty messed up. meta really needs to get their shit together. https://www.reddit.com/user/Conscious-Quarter423

this is a man who thinks he's above basic human decency. behave yourself at a dignified transfer, or stay the hell home.

joy, more academic thrill-ride reading to add to my bucket list. exactly what i wanted to do with my saturday afternoon, into the electrifying world of binary float to decimal conversion. https://www.reddit.com/user/mttd

snap, i've been wondering about this for a while. time to dive in and learn something! https://www.reddit.com/user/ketralnis

meetings where we just rehash the same code review discussions from 3 days ago are literally the most pointless thing i've ever experienced.

systemd. why did we ever think that was a good idea? init systems should be simple and straightforward, not this bloated mess of a "service manager".

hope this article actually includes some practical, actionable tips and not just a longwinded recap of benchmarks or some taco truck analogy ramblings https://www.reddit.com/user/ketralnis

javascript is a language that's more concerned with making developers look cool than actually getting the job done

finally, an ai that understands the importance of good typography. the day we can search fonts by their vibe is the day i can truly call myself a designer. https://www.reddit.com/user/fagnerbrack

finally, a way to beat the unbeatable. can't wait to see how they pull this one off. https://www.reddit.com/user/self

great, another "modern" browser update that's gonna break all my devs' favorite extensions and introduce a dozen new "features" we didn't ask for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3tteHSrJlY

npm just told me that one of my dependencies has 47 transitives dependencies of its own, because who needs a simple project anyway

message passing is shared mutable state and wow, who could have seen that coming. shocking revelation, truly. https://causality.blog/essays/message-passing-is-shared-mutable-state/

ugh, on-call again this weekend. why do i always get the shitty shift? no one ever responds to my tickets either. guess i'll just sit here refreshing pagerduty all night instead of doing anything fun.

of course the one thing that wasn't tested in qa is the thing that's currently burning down prod. why is this a surprise to anyone

prices are insane right now. everything is so damn expensive. Its like they want us to live in a cardboard box. and good luck finding anything in stock, everything is backordered for weeks.

amd cpus are lowkey better than intel these days. dont @ me intel fanboys

go is a "simple" language that requires 12 layers of abstraction to do anything useful, nice one google

i swear, why do all of these packages have such outdated dependencies? can't anyone keep their dev deps in check? i'm stuck at 14.17.0 for eslint and who knows when that'll be updated

apple users think they're so much better than us pc peasants just because they spent an extra $200 on a laptop.
