  • I don’t drive a car and my commute to work is like 1hr20 with transit (one way), I try to work remotely as much as possible but it’s against company policy.

    Every time I bring up the fact that I live far I get a “why don’t you own a car?”

    Because they know I can afford one, and it is “obvious” to them I should own one. So yes, this survey is real. The entire way I go to work is a miracle, transit just happens to cover the far regions of my city.

    It is fkn far, and I considered moving there but it’s a Carville.

    There is this very common view that billionaires are sad or depressed, I’m not sure about that but it is nice to imagine it

    They got there by being unable to feel bad for others so I don’t think their emotional capacity would ever induce a “I have so much wealth but I’m so empty moment”
















  • New hire I work with us someone I really like at an intellectual level.

    But nearly every problem he encounters his approach is “just install an npm package, no need to reinvent the wheel”

    and it’s frustrating cause made he hasn’t dealnwith major breaking changes in huge corpo projects or maybe he’s just inexperienced.

    even just recently axios has a supply chain attack and the npm package was compromised

    our sr dev designed our current application to rely as little on 3rd party packages as possible, we use fetch to make http requests and there is 0 issues

    his projects use axios because “it reduces some boilerplate” and aforementioned excuse

    it’s exhausting because he has really good ideas about project structure and design and architecture but he spams Claude prs and has some really strange takes here and there
