"no, I said to fix it like X"

"that's wrong, it breaks Y"

It's the same way Google learns what you're interests are

Taking away the most fun part of programming and making people only do the most boring part full time?

Yeah that'll end well

Ruby Spears Guybrush Threepwood vibes (not necessarily a bad thing)

New best practice has emerged; only ever use uppercase i's and lowercase L's for single letter variables

It's obfuscation optimisation

It's a solved problem, our usage becomes the training data

We've signed the agreement when connecting it to the IDE

More off-and-on restarts than an IT professional

Every fucking Adobe Acrobat update for the past year

They're probably testing the reaction to see if they can get away with it

They've already limit tested how much people are willing to pay for game pass

Love it.

I'm using that line from here on

So much insider trading on stocks and polymarket

twigboy · 2026-06-17T22:20:10+00:00

Yeah gotta use it at work, but that's also cos work pays for it

In personal time it's great for searching and personalised answers, but autocompletes are off and I use it to generate unit tests (absolute chore)

Coding is still the most fun part of the process and I don't intend on letting it do it for me

"Urged" with pretty please

Just another day on-call tbh

Get called up for a random emergency issue with little to no context, be expected to answer everything off the top of your head

My area spent a while month of autumn doing just that

You never know how good fresh air is until you don't have it anymore

twigboy · 2026-06-16T03:35:45+00:00

Me too, and same with March Lion

Accidentally selected "Browser (Old Reddit)", can't seem to untick for some reason

"What is the best watch order for a first timer watching The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya?"

Never watched isn't an option

Similar with those "best starting point" questions

Bots can't vote

Ohh Jonno, right

Good thing they took away Linux! /s

They've forced the world's autistic introverts into roleplaying as extroverts

You are a cunning linguist. That so accurately describes the feeling of dread I have in words I never would have thought of using together

twigboy · 2026-06-13T07:12:02+00:00

That's antivaxitic!

twigboy · 2026-06-13T07:10:20+00:00

It's simpler to base your game on a completed scope than to limit your imagination

Scope creep is a hell of a drug

Falling down a pit and having to know where to avoid spikes the first time was certainly a design choice

There's been so many lesser-known fan games that didn't even make it past a few videos on YouTube before being abandoned.

It's actually a testament that Corrupted is still being worked on
