    This reminds me of when Keith Olbermann had a chat with Sean Hannity (or someone like that). Keith, for those that don’t know, was a sports commentator that became a left-leaning political commentator and Hannity is a right-wing hack on Fox News. Keith spoke about having a private chat with Hannity and he was taken aback by how little Hannity actually believed in his stuff. It was all performative.

    I think we also got a peak of that during the Dominion lawsuit as well.





  • I’m so blind when I was playing Control for hours and just couldn’t figure out how to advance. Turns out the way I was looking at the corridor made me blind to the exit on the left and just kept going to the exit on the right. Don’t get me wrong, almost no one has this issue, but I find a good way to get caught doing stupid things.




  • I won’t get into too much of a rant about this, but I’m in DevOps but I used to be a full-stack dev (as in doing nothing well).

    My UI lead is just SO proud that he doesn’t need to write any code by hand and can show you how to do it too! Guess what he doesn’t do? Doesn’t fix up or speed up the website. We integrate with two of our sister products. One of them by sharing our UI packages through our private NPM repo and the other by iframe. Both are done so poorly at a fundamental level because our NPM packages are just SO poorly put together that if you spent any time looking at the output, you’ll see that it’s like typescript but not really. It’s not CJS nor does it really do ESM. Our sister websites needs to use another bundler to import these packages.

    Our website is just slow too. Forget about deferred stuff or tighter bundles or reducing the page load times … just putting out more with AI is the key now. Let’s just forget about fundamentals.
