Changing stuff and seeing what happens. If you change two things the universe will let the problem be fixed, because that leaves you uncertain which thing fixed the problem.
The ol Heisenburg’s Uncertainty fix
The guy who wrote this is gone
I’ve gotten about 1,000 alert emails in the last 8 hours because of this
The trick is to be the guy who is gone
Guys who are here hate this one trick!
I retired about a year ago, so the left-most book on the middle row is about me.
That one is my aspiration too. Is retirement as great as it seems?
I’m enjoying it a lot so far. I haven’t missed working at all.
congrats wisened/enrichend early retirement one.
I have a mention in forward with a note being “the only documention left was a series of desperate sounding emails that the documentation was still on the now quarenteened work computers and something about a README”
THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE TO ME, like I appreciate my bosses and PMs being chill and not wanting to overwork me on my way out but seriously guys I needed to hand this off to someone and put it somewhere. shrug
I asked people to take handover for a full month before I left and nobody cared. On my last day they kept asking if they could call me with questions. I said only if they had their credit cards ready because I wasn’t going to work for free.
Forgetting how your own code works over here
It’s a weekday, but I’m not a pro, so either llama or hamster. Maybe sloth, we’ll see where today’s project goes.
Does anybody know if there’s a standard method to do a 1-way broadcast from mobile wifi hardware? (Or Auracast, it looks like the same thing) It’s for a sort of mesh network where links may change very rapidly, and so a handshake doesn’t make sense.
I’m going through Rustlings so Trying Stuff Until it Works
blaming the user, it’s not necessarily their fault, but gaslighting worked for Apple so why can’t it work for me.
Nobody going to admit to being the pigeon? Because that’s me.
I’m sorta like the pigeon but more just a vague understanding of the last critical thing that was asked of me.
I’m definitely writing useless git commit messages
For work, I at least include the Jira ticket id
For personal stuff, it’s sweeping features stuffed into one commit that barely describes what was changed
“Fixed stuff”
…
“Fixed for real this time”Forcing myself to write in the format of Conventional Commits has helped me a lot to write better commit messages.
Looking at the website, Convebtial Commits seems a little verbose for ny tastes but it probably helps actually communicate the changes so everyone is on the same page. Thanks for the tip!
What was the git flag to basically rewrite history again?
I’ve definitely been guilty of this, but if I can redo my changes in narrative form before I push I bet I won’t have to.
git rebase -i
i like the last one
Customer facing, so I think I wrote the one with the cat…
All the purple ones
I’m the donkey today - but it’s okay since I’m writing some automated tests over the incomprehensible thing I wrote on Tuesday.
2, 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are my usuals.
