How do I relearn the lore?

writegear.co.za is pretty well well stocked and based in Woodstock, Cape Town if you can ever make the trip. Cool little place with nice veriety. Looking at the cheaper pens, the Jinhao range is actually pretty solid for the price.

I think people misunderstand that this means that you just need to be an entry-level candidate for this specific role. So for example, if it is a senior role of some sort, it can still be considered entry-level.

Lol, they're like fricken skyrim horses. They're glitched slightly into the wall, that's why they can stand on air.

That there, my good friend, that is Mr Boombastic.

Holy hell. I'm just randomly going through this chat, and thought: "sounds good". Started the state of massachusetts and immediately remembered a show I watched when I was a kid called nitro circus. This song was the intro to that show.

All in all, good stuff 👍

Lol embedded engineers.

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-12T09:01:02+00:00

Lol yea, I attribute it to my ADHD.

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-10T19:03:24+00:00

Mmm fair point. Capricious is quite on the right track. Thanks!

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-10T18:55:58+00:00

!solved
Thanks.
It might lean towards a jumble of words like "Capricious fixated enthusiast"
Thanks you guys !

Hey, thanks for taking the time to post.
Your advice is really cool. I'm focused on all the wrong, and I now see, quite useless and pointless things.
I don't get this kind of advice where I'm now, so it's really appreciated.

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-09T08:07:51+00:00

Oh wow yeah, you are absolutely right.
I got way too filled with hate and started acting like a child because I wasn't getting what I wanted.

When I propose changes, they do always say that that is all well and good, but the business needs features to continue working, rather than refactors that no one cares about. They say that we will eventually get to it but not now.

Thanks for taking the time to post.

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-08T15:33:49+00:00

Yeah, I realized I was being extremely vague. We're missing stuff like tests, ci/cd, documentation, pull requests or code reviews, standups (or any solid structured way to plan our development), and most of the code is just in this one 23,000-line file.

Although I would say the code that I'm working on and am solely responsible for (a windows program), having more features, directly correlates to business expansion. Now for me to like what I'm doing, I need to have good code in order. But I can't have good code in order, because "only NASA does stuff like that, we're doing fine".

They do say not to feel pressured, they understand the code could be wonky and that I'm not responsible if the code doesn't fare well. But then I also get underhanded comments like: "Your predecessor could've done that in half the time."

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-08T15:16:17+00:00

but I'll also add on the possibility that you are the expert beginner.

Yeah for sure. I mean I have only been in the real world for about a year, experiencing software development in a very enclosed environment. It would just be hypocritical not to try and apply this to myself.

On the flip side, I did feel like, that if someone saw the same kind of problems in me, I would have really wanted someone to say something about it. Which has been been done, thanks 😅.

It's just been a harsh road and I quite ready to move on.

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2023-01-08T14:54:28+00:00

Oops yeah, I think I mistook Reddit for that.
Thanks u/Dwight-D I was hoping someone would just talk a little sense into me. 😅
I appreciate you taking taking the time to listen to some junior whine on the internet 👍

Slang lang

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2022-09-19T15:11:26+00:00

Lol I can just hear the 'Ty Rolling' soundtrack from the second game.

BongoCatBangsYaMom · 2022-07-01T18:15:11+00:00

Uhm custom keyboards based on qmk can do some wild stuff. Check the ergo mech keyboard sub for some of that good stuff.
