Portrait of Me, Writting Documentation -- a short french film:
The processes applied to any section of memory utilized for a given purpose should be strictly limited to those declared by the associated type that encapsulates the purpose in question until release or mutation.
That is to say, improperly encoding the intended usage of such a block by utilizing an identical type or alias thereof for a multitude of incompatible situations, giving place to guesswork to arise, constitutes the prostitution of an abstraction.
Such heinous acts of symbolical pimping have received strong condemnation from multiple digital rights organizations, as well as our own, prestigious office. Let it be made Crystal, Alizé and Hennessy clear, that we will not stand for this kind of degenerate practice, and that any heretical sects and cabals built around worship of the strange creatures that arise every eleventh night from the depths of the Black Mausoleum will be prosecuted with the full force of the law.
As a young, corageous man once said at the peak of his career: "it is only through the self-inflicted, hyperbolic discharge of smouldered, comminute perennial anadenanthera colubrina spermatic fluid that the cannonical transfiguration of our collective rectosigmoid junction can be brought to fruition". He was immediately violated with might and ire far beyond our wildest, most profligately depraved fantasies, yet his message lives on.
I leave you now to be ritually and figuratively blown by a posssessed mortician that is to become concubine to our dark master; the long journey to the old graveyard will be perilous, and my destination most assuredly fatal, as I depart to give my firstborn to our Lord Berzchjanzad -- a blood sacrifice meant to appease him from peeling off my skin and refashioning it into a bloodied scarf to be worn around his thumping, grandemonic cock.
And in this moment, as I stare blankly at this teleprompter, the president wishes to reassure you of his sacred vows of stalwart and promethean gayhood, and may __these__ nuts bounce on chins forevermore. Here's to *not* bleeding to death in retribution for this unending litany of sins...
Yet all predictions come to pass.

I've been busting my ass all evening, trying to land a job before anyone catches wind that I lost mine. I mean, I've got a wife and two kids to support!! Anyway, my daughter storms in after being out from dawn till dusk and starts going at it with me, I'm so stressed I feel like I'm trying to debug a complex program with a thousand errors popping up every minute . Now she's giving me the silent treatment, just another thing to add to the stress pile... sigh. Guess I'll keep pounding the pavement. If anyone has any helpful tips, please share. :-(1

Good news! I didn't shave my beard, but talked things over with my wife. Turns out we were just lost in communication due to all of the time I spend on my computer.
We had passionate love making and planned a trip with the kids to go to 30A over the summer.
Life's good.3 -
I AM SO ANGRY! Today my job fired me for the stupidest reason!! A while back I lost my job a (non-important) client for having an "overactive temper" so my boss made me begin taking VRTAM (or virtual reality therapy for Anger Management). Well I attended the first couple things but decided to stop because they were definitely stealing my information. I don't know what sketchy website they found for that but as a dev I can tell when they are taking my personal information. Also there's no way it works I attended a couple sessions and nothing helped because I DONT HAVE ANGER ISSUES!!! Anyway my job found out I had been skipping them and when they confronted me they avoided my concerns and just fired me... Haven't told my wife yet, she's going to be so mad.8

its such a shock to see some cartoons that we saw in our kids days were so perverted and mature themed. I recently started watching anime and thought of looking into dragon ball , but damn that show is full of sexual references and what not4

The biggest drawback to QObject is you cannot template a class that inherits from QObject. It is an fucking pain in the ass. I have more work arounds and boiler plate because of that crap. I end up with code that if I find in the wild I would say: "wtf is this shit?" I end up composing stuff just to make it work together without coupling too hard. I guess if it works it works. If one of you cunts ends up working on this code I will apologize right now. But I won't be sorry one bit.1

Modern approach to displaying dates is shit
I want to see a face of a fucker who decided that "5 YEARS AGO" has more meaning than exact date "15 Sep 2019". All apps that use that fucking retarded date representation are useless shit, worst UX ever.3 -
I made a very obvious realization since the last time I rewrote Orchid; the 3 year project that has now become an eloquent documentation of my learning process; Types aren't free. Sure they're free at runtime, in fact the more you have the less the language has to work to separate values, but they generate significant cognitive load.
Oftentimes it's better to have one enum with 12 variants 3 of which are specific to a narrow case to be able to define operations for this enum once, than it is to have 3 distinct enums of 10, 11 and 8 variants respectively, and to have to define common operations (or the dispatch part anyway) thrice.
As for my previous observations about catchall abort acting like the new type abort, I still think that, and I still think that this is only justifiable if the number of invalid variants is low enough in every case that you can list all of them before the abort.4 -
in contrary to what you guys might think about me, I am way too fucking good person for this world. Even the boss of the company out of my city that I worked in last week when we met the first time told me that I am a good person and that is very dangerous in today’s world, especially because of people like him. Whatever that means9

Hey guys, you won't believe what happaned to me, I left my laptop open in a hacker coffee shop and went to take a piss, and when I returned I fou d out that someone stole all my crypto CockRingCoin 😭😭 I lost a million and a half Shekels but then remembered my brother has a cousin who knows a lawyer who's wife is a friend with a wolf who knows a real matrix hacker who can hack CIA using only his toes, I contacted him and you wouldn't believe it but he got all of my cock coins back to me, I don't know what I would've done without him. If anybody needs help recovering crypto I can more than reccomend my dear holy saviour LeHackerCockSucker
WhatsApp: +972-50-EATMYASS-0
Email: ciahacker@cock.gov
But then as I was happily looking at my crypto returned I notice a few payments I don't rwmember making, turns out, my wife was cheating on me! And using my crypto to buy her lover stuff!
So I contacted the afformentioned lawyer who's a friend of the cousin that my brother has, and he helped me file for divorce and punish my cheating wife, for anybody needing a marriage lawyer:
WhatsApp: +972-54-DeliciousPussy-6
Email: eatmypussy@lawyers.porn
I am now happily married with the wolf who's the friend of the lawyer's wife and he fucks me in the ass every night. If you want a good life like mine you know who to call.5 -

C is love, C is life.
Great language.
I genuinely don't get why so many people are struggling with pointers, considering it's a pretty straightforward concept. I understand that they can be complex in simplicity, but the concept itself is much easier to understand than say, references in OOP languages(despite being the same thing under the hood).
I mean it's just a number like any other number, except that number is treated as a memory address, and the star(* - dereference operator) just takes a value, goes to the memory address that is the value, and takes a value from there.
I feel like most explanations and tutorials just try to over complicate it for no reason.27 -
Brand new day, time to have a new mindset.
I need to finish the big project for the big boss, and fix things with my wife. Wish me luck fellas
Thinking of shaving my beard to remind my wife of when we first met so she will be tricked into loving me for the time being.6 -
Yesterday I had a user reachout via email because his account became inaccessible when he updated it.
This was something I didn't realize could happen... so it was fun recreating this scenario locally.
Basically he somehow bypassed the lowercase requirement for the updateUsername endpoint. So in the DB, his name was uppercase. And the SQL query was searching for his exact username without doing LIKE (by design).
It was failing on that getProfile endpoint and showing a Whoops screen. 😬 Should be a 404 screen, I know. I'm working on it.
Since then, I added Sentry logging to the backend and frontend.
And this showed me there were endpoints still being triggered nightly to remove stale data. (I forgot to remove). And these endpoints were getting 401's. I'm thinking who TF is triggering these endpoints. I soon realized those specific endpoints needed keys that expired monthly. 🤦♂️ -

This article is a rationalization of the passion people put in their work at the workplace.
Im not that good at shitposting,i prefer to rationalize things and form solutions.
Like one solution is to find other sources of income besides work.3 -
I sent a recruiter my CV as a PDF file. They replied that they need it as a Word document. They must be joking, right? I always use my website's reader view to generate an updated CV by saving it as a PDF which contains text and images in accessible format. So it can't be hard to convert to Word?
I just installed Microsoft Edge on Linux, because I heard that Edge can save websites as Word documents. It can't. At least not on Linux, using the print or the save as dialog.
I don't even know what to tag this rant. Those people must be making fun of me. What are they supposed to do with a fucking Microsoft Word document? Make sure that the layout gets broken and the content truncated when forwarding it internally?9 -
i never cheated but due to unprovoked betrayal, i understand why people cheat. If i cheat now i wouldnt feel bad at all. If i find another innocent person and break their heart i wouldnt care. Because nobody felt bad or cared when it happened to me. This vicious cycle of evil then spreads like a virus to other innocent people, turning them into a victim, and then in 99% cases it molds them into an evil person, who continues to spread the same evil.
This is how it all starts. This is why the society today is fucked.
all of this suffering
because of 1 born-evil person.22
