    I feel a lot of people do a lot to justify stupid behaviour. “Saving is too hard” or “exercise is too hard”. There’s legit reasons to not be able to save, or exercise or being able to vote 🤨.

    However there’s a lot of bullshit that people were spouting. It’s either a coordinated campaign or just dumb shit. What annoys me is everyone piling on Joe and then they did what people wanted and swapped to Kamala and they’re still upset that the Dems “don’t listen”. Whatever, they’re all full of it.

    I fucking hate the Democrats but you have to be completely psycho to justify not-voting for them.

    To be clear, I’m Canadian and I’m directly impacted by this now. So fuck all of those people.



  • Well over a decade ago I remember a coworker would just go through the codebase and add his own coding style.

    Instead of if (predicate) {

    He would do if ( predicate )

    I would always ask why he did it and he said, “well we don’t have any coding standards so I’m going to do it” … I replied, “there’s things like unwritten rules and sticking to whatever’s in the codebase makes it easy”. I told the seniors and they chose not to do anything (everyone just merged into trunk) and they just left him for a while.

    Then he turned rewrote built-in logical functions in code like this: if (predicate || predicate) {

    Into code like this: if ( or( predicate, predicate ) ) {

    This was C# and there was no Prettier back then.

    Also, he would private every constructor and then create a static factory method.

    Eventually the seniors told him to knock it off. All I said was that I initially tried telling them weeks ahead of time and now we got a mess on our hands.
