It’s a sauna hat, where else would you wear it?

Java is weird and I don’t like it. It’s the go-to language to learn as a first programming language in school and university, but the kind of Java that is actually used in corporate jobs, with all the weird frameworks and libraries, is so far removed from school Java that it feels like a whole different thing. Maven is weird and confusing and I don’t get it (but I’m perfectly fine with Php’s Composer and JS npm/yarn). And I have yet to come across any sort of real life problem where OOP is a better solution than Functional Programming.

yum!

puts ring on finger
Thank you for the gold, kind stranger

I’m a React developer too and I went tf off on the project manager who suggested we replace the company’s perfectly fine Wordpress homepage with a self-built page running on React. Actually, never ever use React for anything that matters. It’s exclusively suited for making janky browser games and B2B applications.

My parents are coming over today because their ZorinOS installation suddenly started acting up after an Ubuntu Kernel update. Thanks Ubuntu.

A train that doesn’t arrive at all is also not considered late.

Ugh, my work mandated doing an “AI training” course too that everyone needs to do until October 31st. Luckily I’m leaving the company at the end of September so I can just ignore the deadline.

I’ve recently learned that when an experienced doctor administers those tests you also get bonus points for being overly pedantic. As in, if you feel the need to clarify every single question, get frustrated about the questions being too vague or get annoyed at the answer options not being specific enough, that will push you towards the diagnosis even before any sort of score is counted.

Oh, and most people with a false negative on the test get there by assuming that everyone feels like this. “I’m not abnormally sensitive to any sort of material. Just velvet and styrofoam are the worst, but everyone hates those so it’s normal”

AI peaked with Akinator. Anything after that was a waste of time.

I haven’t withdrawn physical money from my bank account in years. So any cash in my household is from like, birthday gifts and the like, making it basically free haha

Have you ever pressed F12? We technically weren’t allowed to see the config either, but LiteLLM literally returned a users password hash as part of the user data json in the version we were using. It was easy enough to see that it wasn’t salted.
Another fun thing it does is that any user can see their entire teams token spend trough the network tab, even if they technically shouldn’t be allowed to do that. Oh and LiteLLM had a CVSS score 9.9 vulnerability recently where any user with any sort of write privilege (including the “privilege” to change any of your own data, like your password) could just change their own role to admin 🤷

The pure incompetence of that software would be really funny if it wasn’t such a pain in the ass to be the person who has to convince coworkers to rotate compromised credentials…

Even better, LiteLLM does not salt their SHA256 password hashes by default. I had to make a huge fucking fuss over that fact until my org changed the configuration last month. Bet we’re in that leak, with password hashes that are easily cracked with a dictionary.

to be fair, the laws don’t really apply if police can’t handcuff you for breaking them

Whenever I read this sort of Faux-Russian I pronounce it in my head like the kid in this Yeralash skit pronounces his english: https://youtu.be/-2LaVuvCj-I

Y’all AI bootlickers don’t treat it like a tool either. It’s a fucking religion to you
