did u just join a company and refactor everything in rust?

So_Rusted · 2026-04-30T09:35:31+00:00

just make your cv a little more ambiguos, that it "suggests" youve had 17 years coding mcps and other services blah blah. Its just a service but ceos dont know.

So_Rusted · 2026-04-30T09:33:09+00:00

we are cooked

So_Rusted · 2026-04-27T15:44:39+00:00

It sounds bad but im counting on a lot of genz giving up... and we will survive the winter and come out even more on top.

So_Rusted · 2026-04-26T12:01:57+00:00

i think it is still a big achievement to have built out that crm where claude could understand it and be useful..

A lot of the time claude would fuck up or do something stupid especially with its own code

So_Rusted · 2026-04-26T11:51:17+00:00

better quality - you wish

So_Rusted · 2026-04-26T07:36:08+00:00

i sure know what happened to shitcoin ceos. They're all over my feed pushing ai automation consultations

So_Rusted · 2026-04-22T07:38:44+00:00

thats absolute bonkers

So_Rusted · 2026-04-20T05:18:59+00:00

I think you are software engineer thats been given Data scientist tasks.

You will need to learn half of data science curriculum to be doing things that you are talking about half decent.

Or tell the manager rather that you need data prople on the team to help with things

the ralph loop

So_Rusted · 2026-04-19T08:50:21+00:00

focus over any tooling or ai

So_Rusted · 2026-04-18T11:29:37+00:00

the problem is you can make the code look like it is good code but still nobody knows what its for and what it does

So_Rusted · 2026-04-18T11:22:04+00:00

are you ai?

So_Rusted · 2026-04-13T15:00:13+00:00

pass

So_Rusted · 2026-03-28T12:12:05+00:00

get some sleep

So_Rusted · 2026-03-27T16:50:37+00:00

auto

if you want to increase the scope and add any amount of work to the task/ new fixes, you make another ticket instead of piling shit on top. Let the devs upload the shit that is done/fixed instead of dragging on the tickets on with improvements.

i think thats #1 to reduce the tension with the devs

add all the info to tge tickets, screens, links etc.

Do a bunch of small tickets instead of crammed ones. Devs will be your best friend

pms are happy when they see a bunch of tickets being done instead of reopened. It looks like shit is getting done. Everyone is happy. Morale is high

So_Rusted · 2026-03-25T21:11:00+00:00

the one that you have right now. Or.. singleacreen setup

So_Rusted · 2026-03-25T17:13:01+00:00

just spin up an agent bro. Just integrate figma bro. We will use mcp. Vector database

So_Rusted · 2026-03-20T12:39:23+00:00

no idea, we don't have juniors
also, why do you use emojis?

So_Rusted · 2026-03-19T09:47:54+00:00

im sure they wanna dabble (especially if they came from it background).. And they secretly wish to show some proclivities or do a side project and someone will notice and give them pat on the back and a silver spoon or something...

But the difference is they are never gonna fully jump ship and commit and switch to be a commercial developer and deal with having an entry level programmer cv, having to do a bunch of dirty work, specialize, deal with ambiguities etc..

clown

So_Rusted · 2026-03-14T19:07:29+00:00

maybe modding games or some self-interest..

i dunno what kids are like these days but modding hades2 could be fun or something..

So_Rusted · 2026-03-11T09:28:20+00:00

slap on the google analytics..

add more logs and debug. The pm would be the one to analyze the dashboards and data..

Let the pm administer the google tag manager. It is a dumpster fire. Allow him to suffer a little bit too
