501 ways to go broke

Thanks for reminding me how reading code feels when I just got started.

Wait DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) is real?? I live an ocean apart from the U.S and all this time I thought it was a meme.

Working fine on FireFox. Can someone from Chrome Confirm?

Coming up next: Californians petition to buy Denmark from EU

My engineer can beat up your engineer.

At least he's blunt about it.

They already do, all they gotta do is take out the redirect to App popup and voila.

This is probably the longest comment I've ever seen on this platform.

For a PDF created in 2002, it's incredibly easy to read on a smartphone.

Considering how we're all "conditioned" to scroll through a chat log, by the time we come to our senses we've probably browsed through half of your landing page already. Very nice!

Not the author, but I make micro commits because it helps me backtrack my implementation decisions. A lot of times I would look at a line of code thinking why I would write something like that and find the reasoning by git blaming that specific line or chunk of code. In short, I do it to make up for my poor memory.

I only have 3 minutes to hack into the mainframe.

*still finds time to write neatly crafted comments on what the code does

I think you might be on to something

Please tell me the content isn't as cursed as the title suggests

Yeah, I think I'm getting more detailed analysis on Social Media from strangers, which I know I should take with a grain of salt. But I guess I'm expecting a lot more than "a filed caused this" from the company that caused this havoc.

I'm no expert but who in the right mind agrees to getting paid in Boeing stocks?

I'm reading this article because I'm bored. And I'm commenting this midway into the article because I got bored again. I guess the author really did get his point across.

Since when did McDonalds start conducting LeetCode interviews for hiring cashiers?

I can totally understand the move fast and break things mentality, but I'd like to stress it's equally important to pay back the occurring tech debts. I am working on a massive spring monolith that's somewhat of a huge pile of spaghetti, and when the higher management decided to enforce code quality in the pipeline, it became a living hell to work on.

I can't even add a logger without having to refactor the whole 2000 line class while writing a whole-ass unit test for it. It's been a full year and I still have to deal with this sort of crap on a weekly basis.

The most ironic part is that most of the devs that cooked the spaghetti are now either in upper management or in the same devOps team that's demanding us to clean the mess up.

Pareto principle in action I suppose

I'm in Taichung, it shook hard as hell but I don't think we took any damage comparing to Taipei or Hualien.

And a jolly Christmas to you too, kind stranger!

Fake news aside, this article features the politician Chen Chih-Chung, who is currently serving his one year sentence on charges of money laundering. Satire much?
