If I’m ever envious of someone doing work in places where they should be relaxing, please kill me.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Explaining to your boss how Sr engineers are made
1 year“Never interrupt your enemy while they are making a mistake.”
I’m not trying to imply that beduins are the enemy, more that insanely stupid people are and since I don’t wanna get into eugenics, well, this is all I got.

Reddit@lemmy.world•Got Permanently Banned from Reddit for Criticizing trump & edolf. Who Else Here for Similar Reasons?
1 yearConservatives that aren’t rich, white, and straight surprise the hell out of me. Like, it was literally founded to push only that group and at the time even Irish people weren’t the right kind of white.

1 yearTo be fair, what sounded like some northern European idea of just ignoring the person so much they have to leave did, on researching, lead to the Wikipedia article titled “Arson in Medieval Scandinavia” and was about burning people alive in their own homes.
Reddit still sucks and all and I wouldn’t be at all sad if this happened to quite a few of these fuckwads but I mean c’mon they definitely weren’t mad at the effectiveness of the solution.
And just like the first commentor, 95% of my roadrage is “how have none of you figured out that tailgating is literally why this traffic exists I figured it out on my first trip on the highway!!”
God, I love the metro. My blood pressure and general mental state has improved so much.
“Our opinions are wildly unpopular to the point where even if a bunch of us showed up we’d struggle to make a difference so we’re gunna need to buy upvotes!”
Like…c’mon.
Just someone trying to “get ahead of the people who will complain that it’s not politically correct”. Like, no one is complaining but they’re already mad for…some reason.
No?
Yes, sometimes it’s better to just leave the shitty person to be shitty but not calling people out also validates their shitty opinions. I’m glad you’re in a place of privilege to just ignore it but maybe practice your own fuckin’ augenmaß and butt out if you don’t have anything constructive to say.
“Wah wah I’m a victim look they’re going to attack me any second now!”
I hope you figure out whatever’s destroying your sense of self-worth and causing you to attack margainalisized communities to protect what’s left of your ego. That’s both a dig and a genuine dose of sympathy.
And that’s exactly it. Capitalism rewards having money and how you get it isn’t important. It doesn’t breed technological innovation but it sure as shit pumps out new, fun ways to spew propoganda and avoid laws! And oh boy is paying employees well not even close to a metric by which to measure a successful company.
It’s the least people clever in the room having the volume to make sure that no one smarter than them can speak and then claiming they’re geniuses when only their idea gets through.
It also feels like they chase the “break things” part as if not breaking stuff is a bad thing, and like we should be proud of them for releasing broken and poorly tested updates.
Move fast, break things, fix the broken things, push update/product whatever. They keep forgetting the third step.



That’s one extreme way to take the comment, I guess. I worked from home for a while and I think these return to office orders are stupid as hell, largely because going to the office needs unpaid commuting time, annoyances related to needing to bring a lunch, and it takes away your ability to do small chores and stuff during the work day that might be often impossible during the evening for one reason or another.
Look, if you want to work at the beach or whatever then go for it, but the idea that California is the “envy of nations” because people can do labour at a beach is insanity.
