Gitlab Duo Can't Take Any More Of My Coding

The corporate-to-English dictionary nobody asked for but everyone needs. After 15 years in this industry, I've developed a finely-tuned BS detector for job listings. "Cutting edge technology" just means you'll be using React like literally everyone else. And that "fast-paced environment"? Translation: your hair will be on fire while management keeps asking why you're not coding faster. My personal favorite is "urgent need" – code for "our last developer rage-quit and left zero documentation." The whole "rockstar developer" thing is particularly rich... sure, I'd love to work 80-hour weeks for the same pay as 40! And don't get me started on "self-starter" which really means "we have absolutely no idea what we're doing, but we'll blame you when it fails." Print this out and keep it next to your desk for the next time you're job hunting. You'll need it to decode what you're actually signing up for.

The eternal truth of coding careers: whether it's your first day or your ten-year anniversary, you're still frantically Googling regex patterns for email validation. Some things never change—your impostor syndrome just gets better at hiding. The real senior developer achievement isn't memorizing regex—it's knowing exactly which Stack Overflow answer to copy-paste without reading the comments warning you about edge cases. That's called efficiency.

Content - ballbase 72 points 1 day ago What does sacrifice child mean in this context? permalink source embed save save-RES report give award reply hide child comments -J Schnickatavick 234 points 1 day ago (last edited 1 day ago) I don't know the term "sacrifice", but generally killing a child means that a parent process needs to terminate a secondary (child) process that it started. I would assume based on context that a sacrifice is just ending a child process to save memory? Regardless, threading has some of the most messed up terminology for seemingly no reason. It's the only place where "killing orphans" or "zombie children" are normal terms permalink source embed save save-Res parent report give award reply hide child comments - TechCubeTetrabyte us 61 points 1 day ago Zombie children? Like, unaccounted for by the OS? permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply hide child comments - Schnickatavick 128 points 1 day ago - It's a child process that finished its task and closed, but the parent process hasn't acknowledged it yet. It leaves it in this awkward state where it's terminated (dead) but it still has to hang around in memory (like a zombie) until the parent process can receive the child's "return" values, which let's the OS wipe it from memory, which is called reaping. Which is another messed up term, the OS is literally a "reaper" for dead processes? Who named this stuff? permalink source embed save saveRES parent report give award reply hide child comments - TerrorBite 55 points 1 day ago - The child itself has already died or been killed at that point; what isn't released yet is the child's entry in the PID table, as the return code (which the parent needs to read) needs to be stored somewhere. So the only thing the zombie process is taking up at that point, is a PID number and a few kB at most of metadata in the kernel. You can't kill a zombie process, because it's already dead. The only way to get rid of it is to kill the lazy parent; the zombie will then be re-parented to init, which will clean it up immediately.

That car suspension is the perfect metaphor for legacy code that's been "temporarily fixed" with zip ties and prayers. Just like how developers keep promising to refactor that horrific spaghetti code module that somehow powers the entire application. The classic "we'll clean it up next sprint" is the software equivalent of duct-taping your car's axle and hoping it survives another 10,000 miles. Spoiler alert: it's still running in production three years later, and everyone's too scared to touch it because "it works, don't mess with it."
