  • Only Outlook drives more insane : the fucking looking up of every single fucking email in the address textbox, just so it can put some fucking status badge or some other dynamic shit I don’t care about. It’s atrocious. And it’s so well done it does it for every address every time you add an address. It’s so slow I will literally write addresses in notepad so I can just paste them all in one go and endure that lookup only once.

    What a bloated monstrosity >:C









  • Oh I remember years ago my project manager worried I was not at my desk typing and I had to explain to him that my brain was constantly thinking about the code. Even while on breaks, even at night, 24/7 essentially. It took time to convince him but thankfully my senior knew I wasnt bullshit ting because he was seeing my code. I did burn out after two years, obviously.




  • It’s funny to read the reactions and the people not understanding that programming questions are not enough to judge you. We need people with functioning brains and that usually means problem solving skills. And sometimes the problems are fucking idiotic! Nobody cares about the light switches. We want to see how you think. We want people who don’t give up if they can’t look it up.

    You think you’re hot shit because you learnt the latest trendy language? I’ve wasted entire days with people like that because they couldn’t be fucking arsed reading error messages and figuring things out by themselves.
