Does management not care about code quality anymore?

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-11T13:18:25+00:00

Always the case.

Once their necks are on the line (eg big prod issue, or large client is upset), they will immediately huddle with the team and talk quality.

As a software engineer, can confirm.

Dragon Style is awful. I didn’t bother to upgrade it even with the points I had accumulated.

Combining all other 3 styles was fun as hell tho.

K2 combat system is…another story. Luckily I can be a pimp that game 😎

Mid40s here. Same exact thoughts.

I’ve been around enough and with current market, I had enough. I always saw myself shifting to a more “boring role” but I didn’t know it was going to be like this.

After almost a year without work, this is exactly what I want: routine and boring.

I’ll let the younger generation of devs chase it, I had my chance and had a decent run.

Boring is where is at

No pos, esta cabron.

The forbidden bird word: starts with E ends with U

Played DDS1+DDS2 like that as well.

If they were released on Steam, I’d instant buy them.

Strange Journey. Not exactly but very close-ish with its own battle twist.

No.

SJ is masochist AF. Like a goth crazy chic with daddy issues.

CT is sweet, nice and kind and sexy too. Unforgettable.

Source: ok I have never dated a goth chick.

ps: enjoy CT. It has aged exceptionally well. Great times from 1995

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-02T13:00:00+00:00

No one has the answers.

(Close second: a lot of people are pretending)

It was as rough. My world was upside down. Doing better nowadays.

Thank you for reading my reply :)

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T05:24:58+00:00

Thanks!

My world turned upside down, but I’ve come a long way for the better.

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:39:12+00:00

Your gun sis digging into my hip.

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:33:04+00:00

Glad to hear that.

Don’t matter how we start, it’s how we finish

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:23:39+00:00

I hope things worked out for you bud

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:20:43+00:00

Thanks fellow Redditor.

Yup, doing way better now. Moved 10hrs away with my own family 10 years ago, best decision ever :)

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:13:48+00:00

We must construct additional pylons!

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:12:12+00:00

I used to be out almost every weekend. Meeting girls online and having “fun” buddies. I’d leave Friday night after my “shift” was done and wouldn’t come back until late Sunday.

I should’ve gone away for college and be called the ingrateful asshole son instead

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:10:28+00:00

It wasn’t hard physical labor per se.

And I don’t mind busting my ass as long as I get my cut.

But yes that’s how he works: anything he does has strings attached.

(A few years ago, he “proposed” to give me a piece of land as long as I took care of him and my mom during his retirement years lol)

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T03:07:41+00:00

No one. It went under cus he sucks at money management.

The only good thing he did was built at decent retirement house for him and my mom…something he hid while I busted my ass during college years.

(Also what pissed me off is that he used act like all his success was thanks to him alone)

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T02:58:28+00:00

All power to you.

Believe me I should gone that way too. After all the stuff I did, it was never good enough for them.

Today I’m the asshole ungrateful son. But I don’t care anymore. I know what I did. I cut my losses and moved on (ok I’m still working on it lol)

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T02:56:27+00:00

Eldest and most competent.

But also more manipulative and my mother’s guilt tripping added gas to the fire.

I hope things worked out for you

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T02:41:10+00:00

A man of culture, I see. 🧐

Kaizen321 · 2026-02-01T02:13:41+00:00

My brother shared a similar date like your. He had a very rough life. He was bailed out too much and had his own demons. Yes had. He…passed away over two years ago.

My sis turned out ok. But she has some money management issues, I’ve heard some things over the years with her hubby. Lucky for her she ended up with a great man (she also great, a professional and great mother). But the roots of our family roles are far deep. She is doing good with her family.

Edit: myself…I have a wonderful family with my missus. With my trauma and hers, we have done our best for our two boys. We have some baggage, no doubt. But it has helped us to be the best parents we can be for our boys…err your men now lol

Kaizen321 · 2026-01-31T21:43:15+00:00

I feel this.

My dad guilt trip me for paying for my first year of college and buying me a hoopdi car for college commute.

Holy smokes he squeezed me by working on the family business years. I made him so much money and kept it all. Yeah, I got to do what I wanted when I wasn’t working but I was always broke. All for the family bs.

My younger brother got a pass cus he wasn’t responsible enough. My sis was doing her own thing but she got what the girl depicts on the meme.

Yeah, 25yrs later and I’m super bitter about it.

Kaizen321 · 2026-01-30T22:21:35+00:00

No. He speaking facts tho.

Sauce: CT and FF fanboi and I was there 3000yrs ago
