You think the rest of the world doesn’t follow the news when a lunatic is in the run with an actual chance of getting elected?
Turns out we have journalists, in France! - Comment on Clever, clever 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like something ChatGPT would write : perfectly sensible English, yet the underlying logic makes no sense.

Does it have sound effects with the character voice?

You know how everything has LCD screens these days? And sometimes you’ll witness a good old crash? I know I’ve seen quite a few.
I’m guessing something like that. - Comment on FLOSS communities right now 9 months ago:
Searching shit is pretty damn important and Discord isn’t optimal, definitely. But somehow it’s better at searching than Lemmy! Now how does that happen?

Programming socks were a mistake.

Anti-peeking filter is looking dope! Nobody will be able to look at my screen anymore, me included!

That feels like that scene in Amadeus, when Mozart dictates his music to Salieri.

Albino? There was an albino in my IT and the poor dude would literally be like 4 inches from the screen at all times. I guess that must be pretty close to his experience, yeah.

That’s the kind of quality content that needs to be stickied for further reference or something!

Well, you could do like many US people and visit Ireland, I suppose :)
- Comment on Not mocking cobol devs but yall are severely underpaid for keeping fintech alive 11 months ago:
For real. Even just talking to your fellow coding monkeys helps. It’s ironic that for example here in France, despite all our workers rights and revolutionary tradition, speaking about your salary is still a social faux-pas. And who benefits? Certainly not us.
- Comment on Not mocking cobol devs but yall are severely underpaid for keeping fintech alive 11 months ago:
The OGs are. The new trainees ain’t.
Which makes sense, but they are still being seriously taken advantage of. - Comment on Not mocking cobol devs but yall are severely underpaid for keeping fintech alive 11 months ago:
That’s because the COBOL OGs are retired/ing and the industry has been training young people telling them “yeah, sorry, this is all we can pay you”. Here in Europe, they’ll take unemployed people from a different industry, put them on a training course, and bang! you’ve got a grateful new dev who doesn’t know how much they are worth.
You just gotta keep spreading the message. I keep happily sharing my salary, especially with younger, less experienced devs, so we can all win better. - Comment on I'll just be a quick 3h 11 months ago:
Me right now, discovering that our archives data have file sizes… sometimes in bytes, sometimes in kilobytes. I found some pattern this morning thinking I could know which was which, then the pattern collapsed at some date in the past.
Joy. - Comment on The classic font size exploit 1 year ago:
You joke but I bet font embedding in webpages is like a big open door for hackers to get into your machine.

What a beautiful image!
- Comment on Steal What Is Stolen 1 year ago:
Stealing implies depriving the original owner of something that you know possess.
The entire digital medium invalidates this concern by its very nature, yet we keep reintroducing it anyway. - Comment on Ya gotta keep up with the times! 1 year ago:
More likely a single Excel file somewhere on the network shared by the entire company. It’s grrrrreat!

- Comment on After 6 hours 1 year ago:
The ones I have seen so far are probably written by the same people who don’t understand the usefulness of comments, I reckon. And maintained with the same enthusiasm.
- Comment on After 6 hours 1 year ago:
After many years (10+), I finally find a company that actually, really, implements CI/CD. Then I look at the tests and it’s actually the most inane shit imaginable, tacked on top of ancient existing code, not maintained. I spent more time fixing the stupid tests than actually fixing the bugs I was tasked fixing. Amazing.
- Comment on Thought I would share my success 1 year ago:
The sad part is feeling so happy yet having no one to really share it with, because most likely you were working alone to solve the issue and when you explain the whole thing it sounds so silly… like trying to explain how funny a joke you made was. “I guess you had to be there”.
- Comment on Golang be like 1 year ago:
I was working for a team that did quality control on the code of an entire financial group and it’s still amazing to me the shit we let through.
I feel annoyed even having compiler warnings in my code and here we were downgrading errors into warnings so the code would go through, or adding rules exceptions for a program so the team responsible could push a hotfix to prod… It’s all shit. All the way down.I dream of working with such a strict language.

- Comment on Fortnightly Recommendations Thread: What do you suggest? 1 year ago:
Best GTA-like I’ve played. Completely ignored the driving part and focused on the beat-em up part. I wish Yakuza was a fraction as good in the fighting department, because otherwise I feel like it would be a perfect fix for me.
So wish there was a sequel! T_T
