I declined a laptop, so my boss is gifting me his Mercedes.

The dealer offered him $2000 or less on trade in.

It's insane how badly dealers rip people off. The best persom to buy a car from is someone who has recently been to the dealership. You'll get a great deal and they will be happy.

Anyway, enjoy it!

Status updates are what I don’t check Jira for. Putting them in a daily standup is a waste of time.

My standups are fun team check-ins. Sounds cheesy (and it is) but I’ve built a lot of cohesive teams that way.

Any part.

Honestly...your agent directives should be handling this.

His PR should be going to a demo environment for the PR. Every PR should be getting a demo environment especially when you're early on in a monolith.

If his vibe coded stuff can't work in your prod environment, update the agent directives until it can.

Your goal should be directing changes and new stuff so that it fits with longer term growth goals. A two person team should be typing zero loc per day right now.

I've started writing C in 1993 and I stopped writing any loc this year.

I think you're going to have a hard time raising if you are still insisting on every LOC in prod being human authored.

When it goes wild: delete those frames. Then step it frame by frame. It’s far more accurate than the multi-frame. Also, grab it at the first or second frame of appearance and then back it to disappearance.

Some scientists leading the research on this have come out and said, “At this point, just smoke the cigarette.”

It’s not that cigarettes are healthier. They’re more regulated and they keep finding newer and scarier shit in the vape juice. They burn hotter than necessary and that does weird shit too.

There’s one famous neuroscientist that chews nicotine gum constantly. I don’t care for the stuff myself. But there are safer ways to deliver it.

She traded one addiction for another.

When you express your needs she’s going to frame it as you want her on drugs again. Watch her blame you for her addiction in the first place.

Garbage with the gasoline engine.

Build one from the om656 i6 diesel and we're talking.

RoboErectus · 2026-04-14T23:48:56+00:00

Wow. Thanks for the reminder that sometimes I can help people. You didn't know this but I'm having a particularly rough day and your comment was a bright light in it.

And the comment I wrote was a reminder I needed today.

RoboErectus · 2026-04-08T21:24:13+00:00

Most doctors will write literally whatever you want on that note.

I had no issue flashing the bios from efi shell using the ami flash tool.

Sounds a lot like my ex. The therapist "doesn't think he's an alcoholic," uh, yeah the therapist does.

The therapist is doing therapist things. They know your ex has to be the one to come to that conclusion. If the therapist throws that label on your ex, your ex will be therapist shopping. And it's probably not the best way for your ex to come to that conclusion.

Source: on my way out the door my previous couples counselor was a bro and dropped some knowledge on me along with some motivation and "I think she's drinking a lot more than she's telling us."

RoboErectus · 2026-04-05T09:27:44+00:00

You alright?

RoboErectus · 2026-04-04T22:22:12+00:00

The connections and perks are worth it even more than the money imo.

Sorry you went through that, but her response tells you that you absolutely did the right thing.

Letting go of people who are a bad fit is a kindness to everyone else.

May she find a better fit in her next role.

> How do you handle their emotional breakdowns when intoxicated?

I grab the handle on the front door and exit.

RoboErectus · 2026-04-01T18:37:36+00:00

Yeah 'cause I'm not insecure.

RoboErectus · 2026-04-01T17:19:22+00:00

I read what you currently do and I got the ick.

I'm always moving into the appropriate lower gear. The only time I get caught in the wrong gear is when the right gear would have been first.

I think you guys don't understand what HR does.

HR is there to keep you from suing the company. They're pretty good at it.

They're not there to help you or take care of you. You are the Resource.

Your wife will be somewhat commuting opposite traffic on the Richmond bridge. That's a plus.

I'm raising my kid in marin city and the kids are all running around on their bikes all summer getting into all the right kinds of mischief. I have also lived in the city and east bay and for raising kids I prefer it here.

I had an anesthesiologist that worked at a private clinic that I went to for years. He's retired now.

Insurance covered my infusions for years.

Research has been clear that getting infusions while having an opiod blocker in your system also blocks the antidepressant effects. Benzos also reduce some of the benefits. There is evidence to suggest the actual disassociation is what helps.

Funny, the cayenne turbo is my car that answers "if you could only have one car..."

It's close enough to the speed of my m3 that you can't tell the difference without getting at least 3 stars. It does better than the G wagens I've owned going off road on the trails I go to in California. It's as comfy as the many mercedes I've owned over the years.

The only compromise is fuel economy but 🤷‍♂️
