You guys don’t understand how hard it is to be a pm.

Jira changed “issues” to “work items” and to recover from that trauma I took another two weeks off.

Hah I was about to say that only bad part of startups that I’ve had was that you weren’t sure if you’d have a job six months from now. I probably just got lucky and jumped on board during the “throw cash at everything phase”

I do feel like a lot of people here are on guard and that doesn’t make for the best vibes.

My wife was asking me the other day how my “shitty Reddit” was doing. I told her it was like someone rounded up all the little twerps that require you to add fine print to everything you say on Reddit.

Also if you post more casual things to a specific sub then you’re almost guaranteed to get downvotes from people just browsing the ‘all’ feed. Like who gives a shit about downvotes but it does make it harder to gauge if they’re from people in the community not interested or just randos.

Anytime I’m about to get fancy with git I have to stop and remember that I’m an idiot and am probably not doing something else right.

Because of problems at home I skipped maybe 80% of high school and lucked my way into college. I’m probably as dumb as a programmer can be but still do it professionally.

I hate the “if I can do it anyone can” remarks but in this instance it’s totally true

I used to make bots in RuneScape. If I’m being honest post high school I had to pick something and just said fuck it CS degree

Honestly makes me kinda sad. Gonna go put on my ugly Clark’s that they convinced me to buy ten years ago.
