Small silver lining: if there’s one thing young people will happily ignore it’s a sign telling them they can’t do something.

Coding isn’t that hard; I don’t need an unthinking robot’s opinion on how to do it.

An actually useful code completion tool should do EXACTLY what I expect it to do every single time. The last thing I need is to have to parse this thing’s suggestions to see if they might be useful or not.

Upgraded my IDE and the new ai-assisted code completion tool works *exactly* as well as you’d expect it to. Its suggestions are perfectly well-formed and almost entirely useless.

Does anyone else just fundamentally not *get* discord? Like, I understand it on an intellectual level but every time I’ve joined one I’ve ended up sticking around for a few days and then just trailing off because I don’t feel like I really fit in. Is it just me or do others experience this?

What are your favorite short viral videos that you watch over and over again like a little weirdo? Stuff like “we’re just normal men” or Renata Bliss, freestyle dance teacher or “Diabeetus” etc. I would like to be distracted from the hellscape

It would be amazing if ai could do something actually useful like debug this garbage but apparently it can only create art and screenplays

Love 2 see a bunch of crummy old tests that are all extremely brittle and interdependent

Debugging a really old test suite that takes 25 minutes to run—and there are failures but only when you run *all* the tests—is a pretty chill way to spend a morning tbh

You guys are so intent on your wrestling program that you don’t even realize I’m in your house, at your computer, stealing all of your cryptocurrency and Apple Music purchases and Club Penguin coins. I own you now, you absolute fools.

It’s not that I’m anti-wang. Far from it! It’s simply that I prefer to see wangs at a time and place of my choosing.

I finally figured out how to see fewer wangs on this app and now I’m feeling better about it. It was just too many wangs.

LOLITA is a novel about a self-serving solipsist who squanders his intellect attempting to justify his own selfishness and cruelty, so it’s not really a surprise that JK Rowling would identify with it.

I just started writing my new novel! I’d been dithering because I haven’t written prose in a while but today I just forced myself to sit down and bang out 500 words and I did! Hooray for shitty first drafts!

I’ve never swept everything off of a desk in order to make room for sex. That’s because I like all the things on my desk exactly where I put them. I also have a special desk just for having sex on.

It’s funny how when a kid is trans then TERFs are extremely concerned about that kid’s mental health and well-being, but as soon as that kid becomes a trans adult they couldn’t give less of a fuck about their well-being and indeed actively persecute them.
