Can we take a moment to talk about what this was written on the back of? It looks like a building plan that looks like an ultra open concept space with doors instead of walls. All the exterior walls are just marked as doors. And I think there is a bathroom that looks to just be in the main space. No walls there either. This is some serious office nightmare fuel. You work outside now, we open all the doors. Poop in the corner while we judge you for not working while you do it.

Play some farming simulator. I've learned so much about different types of agricultural equipment, their uses, the process of where food comes from. I feel like if things ever feel out in the tech sector I could easily transfer to agriculture.

As a developer of many years I hate to tell you sometimes that it's all the information we have when something breaks also. Most code is a god awful mess. Thankfully I love a good mystery.

The wizard casts Wish.

I think he won.

Honestly if taken out of context, hawt.

90% of programming I have seen after a decade plus of doing it full time is minor changes being made to code that was already made by someone. Likely not documented. Likely already changed in a dozen little ways. Math isn't the problem. Understanding what the guy who wrote it is often the problem.

Oh and you can't ask them because they likely don't work here anymore.

Being a programmer is more like being a detective than anything else unless you work for a small company.

I am saddened to see that this thread had no mention of how many horses it takes to run a router. What do y'all think? Would one be enough? It would need to work in shifts to keep up time at 100%. Maybe 3 to be safe?

Imagine being that guy on the bike going down the road second before. Holy shit dude.

I finally made the switch recently. Windows kept getting worse, and worse, and worse. Every day I felt like I had to fight it more to just do anything. I've been mainly a Windows user my entire life and I just couldn't stand to use it any more.

I couldn't be happier. Every game I play on steam just works. I'm installing mods and updating config files deep in the magical proton depths and it just works. A clean install of the operating system is actually a clean place to start. I'm telling everyone I know.

Not going to lie, even after you pointed it out, it took me a minute to find it lol. Hell yeah, that'll keep her secure.

But is it locked? Better slap a padlock on it somewhere, then give it two slaps and say "no one's getting in there".
