Or the code you are working on is calling a system that is currently unreliable which you cannot be responsible for.

Fuck test automation, it’s a fucking trap get out of it as soon as you can

yes, let’s enable people to create the nuke of shooting yourself in the foot by putting AI into the global banking system so that people can vibe code the global economy.

I don’t understand what’s going on with this redemption arc

They all worked for the local branch of a huge international corporation that shall remain anonymous, so I will only refer to the corporation by their initials: IBM.

Some kind of company that works internationally, supplying businesses with machines?

Their profiles only contributions are self promoting their slop app and nothing else. Shameless

I have an alt where I occasionally make contributions in preparation for my self promotion.

No slop planned… for now.

ok, well good luck with the other thread where the other guy is also trying to help you understand that you aren’t quite right on what you’re upset about. I’m not making suggestions, I’m trying to help you understand what you are misinterpreting .

What you’re proposing as a solution is that every single user in a Matrix space is responsible for sorting and grouping all of the channels in the space that they’ve joined. That’s a ridiculous proposal because 99% of users aren’t going to go to that ridiculous effort, they’re going to be happy with the default settings.

it’s so ridiculous that it’s what IRC clients and Slack does.

I’m sorry that I forgot to also specify that what you’re talking about could be part of the admin settings for the specific server, which is where that information should be, which again, is not going to be part of the chat protocol.

I’m saying you’re confused on how the technology works. There’s differences between the protocol, user account settings, user account preferences, and local client settings.

The protocol is how messages are sent and processed. User account settings are what your user is allowed to do and kept on the server. User account preferences are things that should be sent to your client when you log into it. Local client settings are things that the software you are running should know.

Your group arrangement should either be under user account preferences, or local client settings. This is not part of the messaging protocol.

If it’s not supported by the protocol, how is an admin’s sorting of channels supposed to be pushed to the users in the server?

How does my client know to use dark mode without the protocol knowing?!

Just ask Ian to start your computer when he goes on it

Great work, but I just want to share the stupid comment of

“Looks like a cup of internet”

oh look, it’s what I ship every sprint

source: stuck in creating automated tests. I have been trapped with selenium since 2013.

dev teams usually :

What’s the worst that could happen,people won’t die

this guy :

17 years working with hospital patient data

must be high pressure work.

you forgot the part where you have to rebase your branch and that causes merge conflicts that were resolved later but somehow still persist.

TFW you want to do things good, slow and expensive, but management makes you do them fast, cheap and crap.

For your entire career.

Please kill me

Modify this to be less funny but relevant:

Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand. Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on the work, died similarly in 1933. Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics.

various obscure Indian Engineers have spent their lives learning shitty Business Software, just to make ends meet have created works to share that information and to line their own pockets. Now it’s your turn to learn shitty business software so that you can make ends meet.

I am desperately trying to get a new fucking client and fighting the urge to drink myself to death

not really.

One guarantees you X, and you can earn +y, scaleable to (not really) infinity

the other starts you at x and you lose -y until you reach zero (not really, minimum wage)

Your paycheck will reflect the same amount of money regardless — and if it doesn’t, you may want to find a better employer. 😅

bruh, the scenario you’re describing is meant to be “code shipped = bonus pay” not “code not shipped = less pay”

congrats wisened/enrichend early retirement one.
