>>108316350I browsed linkedin a little this morning but couldn't find anything, i think these creatures are only active during workdays
Fuck it I will move all my screenies to PC and then dump them one sec
>>108316363I don't even find these anymore. I think I spammed "Not interested in [...] posts" on enough brown ppl posts that my feed is pretty clean at this point.
enjoying your saturday, /twg/?
>>108316379I give them likes so I get more of them kek
>>108316382about to wage in abithow's your saturday?
>>108316382Yeah. I went for an hour walk. Now I will eat brekky and study Hexagonal and DDD architecture for a little. Then I will workout and cook a batch of chili so I have lunches for the next week.
>>108316399Haven't gotten out of bet yet so it's not even startedIt's 11 so I'll be taking a little walk and have breakfast for lunch. Then I'll do the chores and purchases I've been putting off, or I'll just play videogames

>>108316469I'm euro, all we do is walk but I'd rather run - buying new running shoes is on my to do list for the dayAnd it's a euro city centre so not the worst to walk around, not the best either in this particular caseBut the city is built in the middle of a mountain range (closest mountain path is less than 2k away) so it's easy to get some exercise and reach some nature
>>108316528very nicebut don't slack on gooning after doing all that walking
>>108316382No, I'm merging 2 branches that diverged by 250 commits and integrating that lib into a web app, with changes all through backend and frontend. It's all retarded.

why are people suddenly bragging about LOC now that it's AI?theres a reason we stopped using LOC as a productivity measure back in the 90s
>>108318272and also bragging about 27 tests written for 3500 LOC, or 76 tests for 8000 LOCeither this application does a whole lot of nothing and thus does not need many tests or it is woefully undertestedor maybe it has a fuck ton of white space
>>108318314probably counting comments
>>108318272>theres a reason we stopped using LOC as a productivity measure back in the 90sWhich eventually led to the overinflated tech job market.

shit i am so fucking tired and its a saturday
>>108316382No, I have an apartment inspection on Monday and my living space is nearly asmongold tier. Been fucking around playing some diablo 2 but now the panic is starting to overwhelm my self gratification so I'm going to start the cleaning pretty shortly after making this post.
>>108319134Look forward to Monday when you'll eve even more exhausted and have the whole week ahead of you! I know I am.
>>108318272Lines of code are the most sensible metric, though. Wokeists pushed make everything nebulous so their agenda would be harder to disprove. If your employer isn't measuring by lines of code then they aren't serious about delivering software.
>>108316382no, I did a bunch of stuff to make a bike into an E™-Bike© but hte motor didnt work but at that point i had transferred enough ancilla that it's just myt new bike now and got really annoyed that something I bought for a high price didn't work, that standards are still not real, but more than anything else that i am too stupid and poor to stock a shop properly so doinf even janky proud stuff quickly became janky annoying stuff because I don't have stands or pegboardsmore than most i'm annoyed about a big pile of money i spent on a motor that came broken and more than ANYTHING i am annoyed that fellow barflies saw my shitheap of a vehicle I rode anyway once it became rideable at all and called that piece of garbage okay. it's actually really annoying I don't care that you have an F-250 and I have this thing, and that we're all getting to where we go in the world -- the way I am currently getting to places in the world has a lot of measurable, trackable, fixable problems, and that's not okay, I know it's not okay, I have outstanding tickets for my own damn self about it. Don't lie to me like this.

I bought some baby carrots and went to the park to feed the rabbits. There were so many rabbits. Most of them just ran away, but one actually ate some carrots. Best thing to happen to me in months. I wish I could have a job where I get to be around cute animals, but I'm allergic, and I guess most animals don't even like me. So I'm stuck working with computers and pajeets for the rest of my life because that's all I'm good for.
>>108320387thank u for reminding me to buy dollar store crackers to feed to my local crows
>>108320408I tried to feed a carrot to the ducks but they didn't want it either
>>108320415ducks are mean but also dont eat as much stuff like that, they prefer leafy greens, grains, and seeds

Anyone here working more in the IT, Devops, SRE, etc. kinda role? Do any of you use AI in any form? Does it just help with like Terraform or python scripts, and such?
>>108320577YesYesYes
>>108320577DevopsNot outside of starting out with a new tech. All AI is good for is speedrunning the “i have to google something every 3 minutes” phase of working with something new.Sure as long as you read every loc generated and understand what it all does.

>have some downtime>try to fix an issue, wasn't able to>boss finds out about this>I am 10000% confident that my boss is dumber than me, I know this for a fact (based on the way he talks, his work, his ideas) but he's the boss because he's been here longer than anyone else and he knows just enough to be difficult to replace>boss tells me I'm going outside my lane and lectures me for 15 minutes about only doing what I'm told>he says the problem is for the clients, if they throw a shitfit about it then we'll talk to execs and figure it outwhy do old people have to be so fucking insufferable?
>>108320863This isn't going to be a satisfying response, but intelligence is just a base for success. The way you talk about people is something others can smell, it's okay to think those things but just being smart really doesn't matter. Look at christopher langan, perfect example why being smart has nothing to do with succeeding in a business. But to your point, your boss is a dumbass though probably right. If there are things on the roadmap and you are doing something with 0 impact just for fun, meh. I think they should be space for those things, but people have bad days.
>>108320863It's not just old people. Younger people can be like that too. They prioritize their own egos over the well-being of the company. This inevitably causes company to stagnate or collapse.
>>108320883>It's not just old people.yes it fucking isnice gaslighting attempt, boomer
>>108320863>boss tells me I'm going outside my lane and lectures me for 15 minutes about only doing what I'm toldWhy not do that and use the downtime to learn/ tinker/work on your own shit?
>>108320948>Why not do that and use the downtime to learn/ tinker/work on your own shit?Not him, but doing that in the fucking open office era is impossible
>>108320930If you're a shit person, you're a shit person. Age won't magically make you better or worse.
>>108321012>Age won't magically make you better or worse.actually age makes you significantly worse, and older generations (especially today) are massive pieces of shit compared to younger generations.
>>108320988Well it sounds like the problem is less that anon is doing something unrelated to his work, and more that he's working on something that impacts another team. So it might be doable still even if the office is open. Just gotta pretend that the PDF hes reading or exercise hes running through has to do with some work problem. That's what I did at my first job which had an open office, but granted, I didnt have dicks for managers/coworkers.
>>108320988>>108321036Oh wait I misread it, thought he was doing another team's tickets for some reason. But either way he's taking on work that hasnt been assigned to him so I think that unless he knows his boss's boss he probably should listen and stay in his lane. And just try to some benefit out of a retarded situation.

I'm proud to be Indian.
I recently got contacted by an agency about a vacancy for a 'Principal Web Engineer' role. The JD had requirements for both react and .NET. I was interested, went through multiple rounds of interviews, 2 rounds of negotiation and finally got the salary agreed upon. The HR contacted me with a screenshot of the offered salary and benefits. Then after agreeing with the offer, I was told I'll get the offer letter by the next day. Contact was through WhatsApp. I texted HR with 3 questions. One was about my joining date, one about performance review process and one was if I'll get to work on the backend as well since I have backend experience (currently working as a senion fullstack dev). The interview mostly focused on react and the final tech round with the engineering lead kind of sounded like I would be working on frontend only, thus my question to the HR as the JD had both frontend and backend mentioned. I understood there would be at least some percentage of backend work from the JD.2 days later, the agency contacts me and says the employer thinks I'll get frustrated by not having much backend work as I showed interest in backend during my final round (asked questions about how the architecture is). They want stability, blah blah, I can go through the interview for backend position. I told the agent that I wasn't interested in a backend only position and then they talked to the employer again and came back with the same thing, they're not convinced I won't back off.Kind of frustrating to be rejected because of a genuine question and interest. If they had doubts, I would think they'll reach out to me directly as they've done for the negotiation and hear my thoughts. And they're thinking this when I've been working at my current place for 5+ years. They know from my resume that I'm not a jumper.Is this common in the tech space?
>>108322534I see that you are looking for the same type of role to grow into, that is BE + FE. If I were the employer and cannot accommodate to your request, then I would go with a different candidate. There is nothing wrong with you did. They think you are definitely the stronger candidate (hence the offer), but they couldn't match your demand so they went with another candidate.
>>108322657but now im unemployed
>>108320387>>108320408>>108320415>>1083204455+ years ago when i lived with my mom there was a local park i'd go to all the time and this old hag would throw the cheapest dollar store bread out for these 100+ canadian geese that would literally shit up the place.One time i saw her dump bread and drive off. I picked up the bread and noticed she just stayed stopped at a stop sign, waiting, causing a car behind her to honk at her and drive around her. She just stayed in park and watched as i took all the bread and dumped it into a trashcan.She then reversed her car, pulled up to the park and told me that she had left that bread there. I told her i know, and there are signs explicitly telling people not to feed the waterfowl, i told her that bread is unhealthy for their diet, it was making them too comfortable around people and the geese were shitting up the park for those that like to relax and walk around the park's ponds. She cussed at me and drove offA week or so later i was walking again with my family. I noticed she was parked where she would normally throw bread but noticed me and was just waiting. So we sat and i waited her out, she got more bored than me so she dumped bread, drove up a bit and waited again. I repeated, throwing her bread into the trash. She then screamed obsceneties at me and my family
>>108322844>Hag feeds bread to geese>anon prevents her You did good job. I do the same to senile old people who feed pigeons, here in Europe. I also explain that pigeons are basically food for rats, and these rats will hurt their grandchildren. Sometimes they actually stop.>negative opinion about "cheap dollar store bread"That's not cool. May you never experience hunger.>>108321023 >older generationsThey are awful because they lived through the most prosperous period of human history, and survived without any effort. Basically almost 100% survival rate made them shitty humans, and let expectationaly dumb ones survive too.

>>108326359Skill issue
>>108326359Very funny post considering gen z hasn't created anything new in art, music, fashion, gaming, and greater culture and simply leeches off previous generations' trends
>>108326409we created racism and looksmaxxingmeanwhile millennials created shitty hipster burger pubs and cuckoldry
>>108325841see>>108325684Like I said, I did not get a FAGMAN job out of college, I started out making 52k in 2013 and worked my way up over the last 13 years to a modest 150k this past year. In 2021/2022 in these threads, other engineers literally laughed at me for posting this salary.You do not need to make a fortune to save up. It's about self-discipline, delayed gratification, and continued investing over time. I'm at the point now where my contributions don't mean jack shit, the market is doing all the heavy lifting.You literally could be working in any other field making 80/90/100k in a low COL state and have this same success. It's nothing special.
>>108325684>waste your youth living like a shutin hermit so you can retire "early" at 55 or 60 instead of 65
>>108326470I can literally retire right now if I wanted to. I have a fully paid off house and cars, and our expenses as a family are 50k/year.
>>108323609go to a doc for a general exam. you might have some illness and not know it. do you have anything weird happen to you as of late? night sweats? fever?
>>108326436>>108325841Similar story here. $45k in 2009, no FAGMAN entire career, but lived like I did in college (poverty level), never raised my standard of living beyond "have a place to stay, have a decent enough vehicle (used), have simple stuff, cook, keep it simple". I'm now at $260k (still no FAGMAN), mortgage is under $1900/mo, no car payment, and about $1.2m between retirement/brokerage/stock accounts, and an additional $300k equity in the house. should be at $2.2m by 2030/2031. If my dumb ass can do it, you can too.
>>108325852that's really awesome. Prukalpa Pajeeta and her whole company will learn a hard lesson, and hopefully will become an example for other companies as well.

>>108326430looksmaxxing is derived from blackpill and fitness forums and completely predates zoomers. Zoomers just made it mainstream because they're terminally online and incapable of seeing beyond superficial appearances
>>108326811the judeo-boomer denies you your culture, heritage, and ancestry while simultaneously telling you they're evil
>zoomers boomers doomers grr I hate other generationsYou're mentally jewed
>it's le joooish d&c shills!!! when zoomers are throwing shit back at millennials and gen x>BUT ALL ZOOMERS ARE LAZY AND WORTHLESS AND THEY DESERVE TO BE REPLACED BY AI AND LAID OFF AND I'M BETTER THAN THEMthe boomer calls out in pain as he strikes you
>>108326542Pay off that house early anon, trust me it's worth it
>>1083269112.5% fixed rate, i will pay the minimum as long as possible.
>>108327038I had a 2.875%, and I paid off the last 50k early when all this AI bullshit started. That extra 2k a month with zero debt is fucking heavenly. Feels like we actually beat the system.
>>108320863Anon, you're supposed to do the least amount of work possible to not get fired and act as a psychopathic asshole to get a better position/raise, that's why your boss is your boss while you're a low level wagie
I like how the gen x route to success was>be born>don't be a retardmeanwhile zoomers>7 rounds of leetcode hards>get ghosted anyways>offer rescinded>8% interest rates>get laid off after 3 months
>>108326286sometimes i feel the same but my creativity is nonexistent indie game dev feels very human though, specially compared to modern corporate software development with mandatory ai usage
>>108316278None of my machines have TPM 2 and never will.
>>108316278"web 3 educator"punch wall. make hole. do some z80 assembler to feel clean again
>>108324670Yeah. I think I'm gonna go fly airplanes.
Do you guys use AI to help build/fluff up your resume?
>>108319483I'm considering teaching lol. Where I live, there's a severe shortage in teachers and they take in even people without any degree, as long as they can watch over kids and know how to read kek.>>108322034>docs in the age of AI>>108323305Yes, but I'm min-maxxing that shit. I always have an audiobook on while doing chores. That's my entertainment.I rarely clean the floor, I just sweep it quickly to remove 95% of the shit on it. It is faster than vacuuming. I mop only once every few months, maybe 4 times a year.I meal prep so I can efficiently make meals once a week.>>108325716I just assume they have a keylogger on my work laptop and HR can see every word I type including my password. That's why I use a password that is completely different from the ones I use in my personal devices, and never type problematic words.>>108325886Never has been>>108327464Resume? I just came to terms that I will never be hired if I ever get laid off.
todays gonna be a long day
Any of you drink daily?I'm not a heavy drinker by any means, but I found myself needing to have at least a beer drink after work. It makes my head blissfully worry free.
>>108316398how the fuck is insufficient profile space real ahahahahaha like nigga check Storage Settings ahahahaha like nigga run WinDirStat
>>108326542How did you get to 260k? I just hit 150k at 32 years old, senior dev
>>108326348The backup plan is suicide lilgup
>>108328390You have to keep moving up. I’m at VP level and I’ve been told I’ll be made an SVP around June. I lead a team of 7, though i still individually contribute so i don’t look useless. I’m over 40.
What's the meta for getting a job these days? Was laid off last year, said fuck it and am considering maybe getting back to waging now. Is it still joever?I've seen uwtg doesn't exist anymore so that's a good sign.
>>108325886Yeah, you're secure for about two weeks after accepting the offer. If you're lucky you get in early on the cycle and only experience layoffs late into your role, like two or three months in.
