  • it will never change because some people never learn.

    I used to bend over backwards for new devs to help them. what I realized after some time that at least 75% of those devs never learned anything and continued to cling to me for help. my quality and work/life balance suffered from it.

    now, I give help. once. I do not repeat myself, and helping is the last thing I do. work, life, balance.

    I know I come off as cold or an asshole, but that’s purposeful. I want new devs to learn the way we all learned, through time and pain. nothing worthwhile ever came so easily in this world.



  • that’s quite the amount of confidence for being wrong.

    Many jurisdictions now center the crime on the absence of freely given or affirmative consent and also criminalize sexual acts with persons who cannot legally consent—minors (statutory rape), the intoxicated, the unconscious, or those with certain mental disabilities—so the presence or absence of capacity is often as central as whether force was used.

    by your definition, having sex while intoxicated would not be rape because consent isn’t required. you allowed this by proposing consent is not a requirement to force a man to impregnate a woman.

    by your definition rape itself doesn’t exist.



  • I loved being the scrum master but the responsibilities should be more than presenter.

    I had to deliver project status notes to product shareholders, let them know of any directional changes we had to take due to blockages, drive the team to deliver on time for product launch, manage the backlog workflow to ensure the dod was accomplished, manage the backlog and attribute 15% of it to housecleaning/bug fixes.




  • ITT a bunch of American hating trolls.

    while I agree with the sentiment current developments suggest that having a form of protection against a corrupt government is a wise precaution.

    I don’t go brandishing it openly. I don’t threaten with it. I don’t live in a fantasy to be the “hero”.

    For people outside the US you have to realize that gun ownership is a part of the American cultural experience.

    As with any society, there are those people within it that toxify the culture. My point is, don’t vilify Americans because of a subculture of our society. All that succeeds in doing is alienating and dividing us apart.
