Lmao I would have read emails if I wasn’t drowning in irrelevant emails and they forced us to switch to outlook which not only got rid of all the automated filtering and sorting I had setup but also lacked the features to recreate them. I used to be on top of email and slack channels but they just added so much mandatory shit that I just couldn’t wade through anymore. So, “We can’t send emails because people don’t read them” in my experience has been a management problem, not an employee problem. This was Oracle though, and they’re particularly bad at treating employees as human beings

In my experience, those three groups are really just the three stages of burnout

In a sense, I’m already planning on killing myself

Nope I’d definitely kill myself before letting an ai fuck with my brain

Or damn near freezing

🤷‍♀️ I’m happy I have it

Same. Also on the feature list was the smallest screen I could find

That’s a good pun right there

I have an old car that I can only connect to via aux cable 🤷‍♀️

I didn’t get my current phone cause it has an aux jack, but I’m glad it does have it

Of course they know, they’re using it to hide the truth. Stop giving a corporation the benefit of the doubt where public safety is concerned, especially when they’ve been shown to abuse it in the past

Lol in my head it stands for slurp nick

Good luck transporting a couch in a car

Ah but I don’t care about my life

That’s… A really good idea

Time to redesign my phone case

Yeah. Stabbed him 14 times. Laughing while doing it. Talking about how much she loved it. How she wanted to do it again. Self defense is more than fine, it’s damn good to stand up for yourself, but spitting on someone and escalating it into a fight that you use as an excuse to kill someone is unacceptable. If it was a Republican who spat on someone, starting a fight before shooting them 14 times, saying how much he loved shooting her and how he’d love to do it again, I’d say that’s indefensible and he’s an evil bastard, just like this woman is.

Self-defense endong in the attackers death doesn’t make the killer a bad person. The facts of this circumstance, as I know and understand them (which very well may be flawed, it’s not like I was there) lead me to the conclusion that she’s an evil bastard. Trans people are just fucking people. We can be evil bastards, the same as everyone else. We may be at higher risk of violence due to hateful bigots, but that doesn’t excuse the act of murder. The act of killing, sure, if necessary in the course of self defense. However, as I know and understand what happened (and seemingly the jury as well), that was not the case here.

Hate me if you want to, I’m used to it. I just want to speak out because I have seen the whole “excuse terrible actions from your side no matter what and refuse to look at reality” thing from shitbag republicans SO MUCH and I hate to see allies doing it too.

I’m a trans woman. Self defense? Stabbing someone 14 times to death and talking about how much you loved it and would do it again? That’s pretty plainly not self defense. Even if you are happy a transphobe got atabbed to death (please, develop some empathy) she clearly deserves the sentence she got. Trans people are just people, some of us are evil bastards, just like all the other people. I’ve gotten slurs yelled at me, I would fight back if I needed to, but I’d never take sadistic glee in murdering someone. Please, consider what I’ve said. Try to understand why I said it. Don’t bother ranting at me in a reply, I’m preemptively blocking you because I truly don’t believe you want to do anything but argue.

Yeah, I’m trans and find this pretty indefensible. I’ve gotten slurs yelled at me, I’ve never started a physical fight over it and certainly never fucking stabbed someone 14 times to death.

Hahahaha, maybe they were onto something (this is a joke) – I consumed way too much porn at way too young an age and I did turn into a girl! Dick never fell off though sadly

The tone of this comment is frustrated at web development and the software industry in general, not angry at you.

God fucking damn if you’re developing it in a web stack then just make it a fucking goddamn website! Stop making me have ro have yet another goddamn chromium instance open so that you can have a more invasive data harvesting program! You might be making things “easier” (I’ll get to that in a second) on yourself by developing it in a familiar area, but you’re just offloading the cost of not doing a proper goddamn job writing your program in an appropriate language onto the people running it!

As for it being easier, JavaScript is a goddamn fucking nightmare. Low level threading stuff like you work on is a different flavor of pain in the ass, hard to compare magnitudes. JavaScript is single threaded but cosplays as multithreaded and it’s awful, and the loose typing makes me appreciate having to type the equivalent of the wheel of time in java. There’s 2 situations in which it’s easier–you already have a website and want to make it into a desktop app (FUCK YOU!), and consistency on every operating system is number one on your priority list (which is becoming less and less valid as linux support gets easier and easier). Developing a program in a language unsuited for it makes it more difficult, not easier.

I’m not angry at you here! I’m angry at companies putting everything out as electron apps and at doing front end webdev.

Electron apps should be taken out back and shot
