At Least The Motive Was Good

Content robin dreamsofsloth the first thing our new hire did was fix a bug that's been bugging him forever as a user prior to joining. he then breathed a sigh of relief and submitted his two weeks' notice. wtf??

The eternal struggle between developer and AI. One wants a magical performance boost with zero effort, while the other suggests doing actual optimization work. Reminds me of every junior dev who thinks adding more RAM will fix their O(n²) algorithm. Spoiler: it won't. Batman's slap represents the harsh reality check we all need sometimes—no AI will save you from learning proper engineering practices.

Content Have you ever seen code so bad it made you laugh? David Seidman, former Security Program Manager at Microsoft (2005-2016) Answered Feb 8 Upvoted by Aveesha Sharma, Masters of Science Software Engineering, Arizona State Univ... and Mandeep Kaur, MS Software Engineering, San Jose State University (2017) R. I was working for Microsoft's security incident response team investigating a vulnerability. We opened up the relevant file. It contained 10,000 lines of uncommented archaic C code. At the top was a single comment: This code has bugs. It did. ProdrammerHumor.io

The eternal battle between humans and printers continues! On the left, a 3D printer confidently accepts the challenge of printing a human head with some random yellow filament. Meanwhile, the office printer on the right has a complete meltdown when asked to print basic black and white text, screaming about missing yellow ink. Nothing says "technological progress" quite like a $2000 machine that refuses to print your tax forms because it's out of a color you never use. The irony that complex 3D printing seems more reliable than 2D printing is the kind of technological regression that keeps IT people drinking heavily.
