  • Now you can either be the reason the dead line fly by or you accept code that not a single person understands.

    I will never, ever, ever sign off on shit code. If the deadline slips, it slips. But I’ve also been lucky enough to usually have managers who appreciate quality over speed, so they actually appreciate it when I tell them their schedules are overly optimistic.

    Still, though. If someone’s submitting slop for review, then the missed deadline is their fault, it’s not your fault for not approving shit code

  • GOOD post

  • Since this is a leftist site, I might as well try throwing literature at you, haha

    One of my favorite musicians wrote a free short ebook that addresses this kind of feeling. You can get it here (ik the website looks a little sketchy, but I promise it’s legit. You might have to check your junk folder for the email it sends): https://teach-your-knowledge-media.kit.com/b59723ec00

    Don’t let the stuffy title turn you away; it’s actually an earnest (and rather rambly) stream-of-consciousness-style collection of thoughts that deals with a lot of the personal and emotional aspects of creative work. I don’t write music myself, but even so, reading this thing made me feel better about my own present lack of artistic output.

  • More Everything Forever is my favorite book of the year!

  • Unfortunately, it’s a thing in real life too.

    RIP Adriana Smith.

    Edit: she wasn’t a surrogate so not the same thing actually, but this topic inevitably reminds me of her

  • Ah yes, using the language of psychology to designate types of undesirable people who should be imprisoned/enslaved

  • This has the potential to turn into a really interesting struggle session

  • <- would

  • I got my covid and flu shots yesterday. Today I am eepy seepy

  • DS9 isn’t un-horny, but I wouldn’t describe it as really horny either

  • fire keepers

  • Not the sort of thing I’d ever admit to, but I’m not really judging you either. I wish you good luck in your journey of getting over your ex.

    If we’re doing confessions about fictional intimacy, then I’ll admit to being a fan of reader-insert fanfiction. There’s some good stories out there (and a lot of garbage, but it makes it more rewarding to find the good stuff)

  • Shame is a powerful tool. If you come on too strong then he’ll get defensive, but a bit of tactfully restrained disgust can work wonders.

    If you would want to distance yourself from someone who works on weapons, then don’t be afraid to make it clear to him that you feel that’s way. Nobody wants to be the guy who drives people away

  • Idk I just can’t find it in me to be upset about a guy making an update to his passion project

  • I’m missing some context here. Why were they even having a lifting contest to begin with?? Idgaf how much weight a politician can lift
