What I hate the most is when they hand me my deformed babies I wrote like 5 months ago and tells to fix it

Like the whole "DOOM runs on anything" meme is funny sure but technically you can run any program on any machine that has the processor, memory, and storage space for it. You may need to tweak some thing here and there to get it fully operational but really that's mostly what it hinges on.
I turned my windows netbook into a Debian server and then turned *that* into cloud-based storage I could dump and share and run any files I wanted to off my internet connection when I was in college by tying an external hard drive to it using an always-on connection. I still technically have the hard drive but I sold the netbook a long time ago. I also turned my MacBook from college into an always-on minecraft server for my college friends before Microsoft decided to give us actual multi-player support.
I also turned my MacBook into a windows OS emulator when I wanted to game because I got annoyed that Mac ports are usually poopoobad quality. So I would turn my MacBook on and then load up my windows os inside of the Mac os and then actually load the game.
Like yeah I went to school for programming but I actually learned how to do most of that as a kid because my dad had a computer that had no GUI, it was all command prompt and DOS. There are times when my current windows computers are annoying me because they won't do the thing I told them to do so I load up dos and then effectively go "I wasn't asking" at it.

[pulls up a chair] tell me about javascript and why it sucks?
i think the bad part about it for me has been the difference between learning html and javascript. html (the coding language for building webpages) and css (coding language that makes webpages look pretty) were like figuring out i knew a different language my entire life and was only just learning that then. trying to learn javascript has been like learning french while someone attacks me with hammers
(long pic under the cut)
IDK WHAT ANY OF THIS MEANS </3

I'm sitting in front of my computer at 2 in the morning, typing out the equivalent of summoning tiny little creatures to do your bidding but in digital form. This is what my life has gone to
Imagine this scene, but at night

Tumblr banned the use of javascript on blog pages? What the heck? The ban turned on in the middle of my work with the page tonight. In one moment I was saving the page with scripts without a problem, and after a minute it gave me an error and offered to contact support. Well, just not a day without another shit, tumblr?

canibalism fics confuse me and not even in a negative way i just genuinely dont understand them
like
how is eating someone a display of affection that shit feels like a fucking insult or like a display of "im better than you" or its in some way meant to demean someone
idk
canibalism is weird
id do it to not starve to death or if the person was already dead but only under those circumstances
the art is cool tho (but it kinda weirds me out (but that might be the point idk /nsar))

you can always tell when a Java developer was put into a position to write front end code:
every function is called a "method"
classes, everything is a class
no you can't call that function method, you need to instantiate this class first
xml configs
incomprehensible uses of this, that, self, and clazz
deep inheritance trees—buckle up, you're going to traverse a dozen different implementations of the same abstract function method class jammed into wildly different contexts
looping, recursive, reflecting factory patterns that break the fourth wall and adjust run-time symbols on the engine thread its running on

I think taking the time to teach something is wonderful on so many levels. I volunteer a couple times a week to go into a public school and teach one class how to code so that they can learn from someone who actually does this for a living. I need to give a presentation tomorrow to demonstrate how we want their code to be demo'd, so I threw together an example project and it took me less than an hour to build a thing that has taken these kids at least a few weeks.
And like, it's so cool that at one point, I would have also taken a long time to build something like this but now it takes me very little time! It makes me so grateful that I have the opportunity to see how far I've come. Especially with things where there will always be new challenges and new things to learn, it's nice to have such a real reminder of how far I've come. And it's also nice to know that I'm helping other people start down this path.
