A Pinky & Brain spin-off for grown ups that always starts with them sitting tired at coffee in the morning: Pinky: "What are we going to do tonight?" Brain: "Same thing we do every night. Try to go to bed early" And then the whole episode is just about how stuff comes up and prevents them from going to bed early.

You don’t have “burnout,” you have stress-induced neurological decline due to long-term brain damage. Giving it a cutesy name may help you discuss it amongst allies, but it will not demand the recognition you need from medical professionals, your peers, or those oppressing you.

A true warrior always stands at the ready to give assistance, but knows that sometimes the best help is to give someone the time and space to help themselves. Knowing that you are willing to lend your strength is sometimes all it takes for those in need to regain theirs.

Fascinating both for what it says about dev & what it says about statistics: A gamedev realized Linux users were just 5.8% of their sales, but represented 38% of bug reports. Then they looked at those numbers closer, and realized. Linux users were not experiencing more bugs. Almost none of the Linux-user bugs were Linux-related. Linux users were simply *more likely to file bugs*. Their conclusion: A linux port pays for itself bc it nerdsnipes ppl into giving u free QA https://techhub.social/@ozone89/111337250473454154

Saw a job posting touting “no politics at work” as a benefit. Mate, I work in #OpenSource. It's _all_ political. So grab your "no politics at work" and go take a long walk off a short pier.

Just got notice that RIPE NCC will not be funding the #SmallWeb. Not surprising, since we haven’t had a single successful funding application and I’m done wasting my time with this crap. small-web.org will launch as a commercial service (host your own Small Web place for ~€10/mo) and hopefully that will make Small Technology Foundation sustainable. Since everything we do is free and open, others will also be able to host Small Web places. Also, you can fund us directly: https://small-tech.org/fund-us

I cannot describe the intense visceral rage that envelops me when someone would rather waste my time with a meeting than simply writing something down. Fucking energy vampires.

People go to Stack Overflow because the docs and error messages are garbage. TLDR exists because the docs and error messages are garbage. People ask ChatGPT for help because the docs and error messages are garbage. We are going to lose a generation of competence and turn programming into call-and-response glyph-engine supplicancy because we let a personality cult that formed around the PDP-11 in the 1970s convince us that it was pure and good that docs and error messages are garbage.

There are multiple definitions of “witch” across cultures over time. But on #Halloween, this a spooky reminder that throughout history, a witch often meant a woman with opinions and an independent life persecuted by the patriarchy for not fitting in.

there are many reasons I personally use mostly FOSS but honestly a big part of it is just on the one hand there's software that doesn't have the feature because nobody's gotten around to implementing it yet and on the other hand there's software that doesn't have the feature anymore because someone intentionally decided to break it and coming into contact with the second one makes me feel super shitty!
