Average night sleep duration for the last month is reaching 5 and a half hours. I don't know why my body decided this is a reasonable response. I'm so sore all over and my brain is so foggy. I feel like a zombie

Genuinely I believe the worst software developers are data scientists. Some of the shit I've seen them write and the pace they output nonsense is astounding

Normal people: We want affordable appliances that make doing annoying tasks like dishwashing easier.
Tech: Perfect, here's a toaster that spies on you and a dishwasher that talks.
NP: What?
Tech: Also a bed that's also spying on you & only works via internet connection.
NP: Stop.

The main achievement of the tech industry has been increasing the flow of money from people who make or do things to people who already have more money than they could spend in a hundred lifetimes
“Average musician makes $12 a month on Spotify. The fact that they are not even able to sell a record and it’s taken from them by rich motherfuckers on streaming platforms who get paid royally by record labels,Ticketmaster, merch companies.

The dumbest engineer managers have made an over complicated platform for mlops. No one wants to use it, on a cloud env no-one wants to use to get engineers to just build configs. Incredible work that the only people benefit are those building it when they leave
