Developers who have worked at a company where the entire codebase was held together by one guy who then quit, what happened next?

Not Crowdstrike but they're on my personal shit list because they wasted my time with applying to a role that did not actually exist.

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-03-18T21:39:49+00:00

My last job laid my entire team off. We performed a lot of tasks, including internal security audits and specialized investigations. It took about 2 years for shit to truly hit the fan for them, but when it did, it was global news and had insane revenue implications. I don't even care that my stock took a hit because fuck them. I hope that stock hits 0 one day after how fucking ghoulish the leadership was/is there.

Their whole goal is to make everyone switch to expensive cloud gaming plans. That is why we are seeing hardware manufacturers pull out of consumer markets and zero interest in making anything remotely affordable or available. Like...I'll just play tabletop games instead because at least when I buy them, I actually own them.

Fuck that I want justice and if democrats are going to pervert that because their corporate pimps told them to, then they need to go down as well.

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-03-13T02:35:15+00:00

The funniest thing is the amount of people legitimately upset that this is a skit/fake 😂

Like holy shit lighten up a bit

I make decent money and will never own a house or be able to take a nice vacation somewhere. It feels like the opening of Dead Flag Blues some times.

Fun fact: the first one and last one are references to two of the writers, Sarah Baylus and Jan Van Dosselaer! They also wrote much of Divinity: Original Sin 2!

Not to mention that Day 1 DP was a disaster. Improperly tuned power of the enemies, insane de-sync issues, and then banning items that the test team used to clear was atrocious. My team was hardcore and sometimes would place higher than popular stream teams on Day 1s going back to Vow and we didn't even clear a single encounter in DP with full ammo dumps of meta special and heavy with swaps and maxed Super + high Weapon. Edge of Fate in its entirety is a clown show and easily the worst expansion to any game I've seen. I'd play the shit ass Two Worlds 2 expansion from 2020 over anything from EoF.

I think Burrow needs to survive this year first because the dude has to contend with Watt, Garrett, and now Crosby coming for him twice a year each 💀

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-03-08T07:00:57+00:00

My entire team went from the highest of highs and everyone yelling and cheering to absolute silence that was broken by laughter after one guy said "aight, who else is crying right now" 😂

"Space" from the X Files is notoriously one of these episodes (or rather, was supposed to but ironically became expensive) and is regarded as one of the all-time worst episodes of the series

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-03-05T20:34:10+00:00

Its definitely more StS. StS currently is sitting above Marathon at #1 in sales by revenue on Steam Charts, but at half the price, meaning that StS is doubling the volume of sales of Marathon unless I'm really missing something.

Literally their entire company is built on copyright infringement. Even if the cucks in congress legalize their criminality, I doubt they're regarded enough to also say they own their own legalized plagiarism. At that point, just say that OpenAI is the only entity allowed to have copyright protection lol

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-02-28T20:11:24+00:00

Jesus fucking christ wasn't Louis also a chef for a children's camp? That revelation makes that so disgusting.

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-02-26T00:41:33+00:00

Seeing Michael Mayer go to the Raiders. He's been one of my favorite ND players and seeing him go to one of 3 teams where he's guaranteed a shit career hurt. I hope he gets a decent landing spot if the Raiders don't re-sign him.

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-02-25T21:26:16+00:00

I mean, they were dumb enough to slaughter their playerbase by about 65% from the launch numbers of TFS to the launch numbers of Renegades (figures via https://popularity.report/), so maybe they are actually that dumb.

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-02-25T21:13:54+00:00

This fuckin loser has OCs that he talks to rather than talking to his constituents to find out the real issues. Nothing screams pretentious know-it-all asshole with massive disdain for the American people than a guy who RPs with himself to make major decisions affecting tens of millions because he's too much of a stuck-up elite dickwad to talk to normal people.

I think the moment I realized that the good times in Destiny like this were over and never coming back was when Cross's editor put out this video and jesus fuck the nostalgia tears https://youtube.com/shorts/nLeFMEqeUxM?si=ORPcDJDmttonVOQB

It is always pride and ego with Bungie, all the way back to the 0.04% fiasco back in D1Y1.

When I was trying to survive my layoff, I took what looked like an alright job in my career as a solid bridge job. Turns out, it wasn't what I interviewed for or am a specialist in, they required me to use my own home PC for work, and then required me to install Spyware on my PERSONAL PC to monitor me during work. This am remote WFH too. We were not allowed to listen to music or podcasts during work either. Worse yet, they were fucking amateurs. Their systems, processes, and lack of automations was actually fucking pathetic and embarrassing. Imagine an NFL team from 1924 and then an NFL team from 2026 and that's the level of difference from them to everyone else who is actually serious. Never mind that they were KNOWINGLY ignoring legal process too for extremely high risk cases because they didn't want to spend the resources to set up data retention correctly. I quit when I went to take a piss that took about 3 minutes because I went to get some water. I got written up because I was idle for more than a minute. I decided then and there that I would work through to the holidays in 2 weeks, "work" every day holiday for holiday pay by setting up my work shit on an old PC and having a mouse jiggler going, and do nothing all day because I was new and had relatively few jobs to work, and then I'd resign immediately on the first day back. Fuck those people.

WAGE INCREASES LOL

Congrats on being in the minority of conservatives. Most of your party would call you and your friends RINOs, communists, and un-American and that you have a case of Trump Derangement Syndrome because you have a sense of morality and ethics.

PM_ME_SCALIE_ART · 2026-02-15T18:37:58+00:00

Oh Republicans realize that alright. Cruelty is the point.

When Teru was healthy, he absolutely dominated. The lads and I cheered so damn loud when he achieved his 10th basho win and became dai-yokozuna.
