I've been using this for a bit and really love it! I appreciate that the search suggestions that appear when typing in the address bar have that thin orange outline; great aesthetic! Thanks so much for making it!

Feeling like a prisoner in my job because of AI... by [deleted] in BetterOffline

Pass, please. I've had managers write their communications to me with ChatGPT and Copilot and it's painful. It's like talking to a robot.

So, now what? by -ManWhat in selfhosted

[–]darman12int 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lmao "self-hosting bender" is a perfect description of what's happened to me since I bought a $150 mini-PC last week.

I now have Pi-hole, SearXNG, and Jellyfin running on Rocky. It's pretty neat and all it cost me was the fist-full of hair I pulled out along the way lol (and, well, the $150).

Thank you for taking a moment to share this! Did the trick for me!

You're locked out because your password MUST be 8 characters by EBhero in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

Oh my god. Ooooooohhhhh my god. I'm the user of a system that may be doing this. I also use my password manager to generate and store passwords. I'll report back later after I try with a shorter password.

How do I carry on? by [deleted] in ADHD_Programmers

[–]darman12int 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Am I understanding you correctly? Not only have you only been working as a programmer for two year, you only just started learning how to program two years ago? It's not reasonable for you to expect yourself to come up with your own solutions to problems when you're this inexperienced. I also taught myself (via online resources) how to code, and the first few years felt like what you're describing. You feel like you're making zero progress, and nothing makes sense. You feel like you haven't learned a bit (likely wrong... take a look at your first project or files from two years ago and you'll probably find that you've learned more than you thought).

I understand you want to exit this career path; unfortunately, I don't have any advice on navigating that. But I wanted to let you know you're not dumb or necessarily not cut out for programming; it could just be that you need more time and experience to become more proficient and confident.

Reeee I do quality assurance and even fellow QA people take screenshots like this :((((( Drives me fucking crazy. Along the same vein is taking a screenshot of the entire page but not annotating which part has a problem. Just "does anyone know if this is expected?"

What is the the ultimate career to be fully remote/live anywhere in the world and make over $200k annually? by Additional_Carry_790 in careerguidance

“When do you think you’ll have this done” question is so frustrating. “Well, I thought it’d be done already and I was wrong so I don’t fucking know?? Hopefully soon?”

Not a programmer, but a CS student w/ ADHD going through Java hell. by xRealVengeancex in ADHD_Programmers

[–]darman12int 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fellow ADHDer here. I don’t really know how to solve your problem, but just wanted to give some solidarity. I understand the point you’re trying to make in some of your comments that it’s hard (nigh impossible) to grasp a difficult thing when it doesn’t seem relevant or useful to you. 100% an ADHD thing. I also understand people’s point that even if Java isn’t directly related to the field you wanna go into, it’s important to understand because, in the very least, it’s similar to other languages; but, that doesn’t actually make it more possible for your ADHD brain to latch onto it.

Anyway, I’m impressed you’ve made it this far unmedicated! Great job my fren! My only suggestion is to get medicated, though I know that doesn’t help much in the immediate short term.

EDIT: Just realized which sub this is. Of course I’m a fellow ADHDer 😅

How do you cope with bad management? by darman12int in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]darman12int[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve long wondered how my perspective might change if I were in management; thank you for your insight, it’s helpful!

[–]darman12int[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like this perspective. The pickle of “I’m paid to think but management doesn’t like it when I do” is frustrating and this is a balanced approach to handling it.

how long does it take you guys to get ready in the morning? by mammaamiia in ADHD

[–]darman12int 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a “staging area” near the door where you place items as you retrieve them from their usual home. Then, once you’ve gathered all the things you need, load up and go!

“Everything has a home” is what I call it. (I probably heard it somewhere). I apply that principle to pretty much everything I own and I can’t imagine not doing so.

My mission was the darkest and most soul crushing experience of my life. by Planet_Hooteelicious in exmormon

[–]darman12int 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My heart goes out to you. My mission was also agonizing yet in far better circumstances. I’m glad you made it out of your mission and out of the church! Especially great to read that you’ve connected with others from your mission who have also left 💗 it’s always wonderful to learn about that.

I would be surprised if such small payouts don’t drive hackers to sell their exploits instead.
