Arch Linux's Descent Into Corporate Hell

Content ?php header ("Content-type: texthtml; charsetutf-8"); This is a warning to any poor soul who may have to deal with this code. I took over this criminal piece of chaos from a monkey named Joel who I assume had been given a typewriter by Mephistopheles himself. For reasons I have yet been unable to fathom, he decided to patch together this thing using a BaseX setup hardwired into an unfixably broken Manjaro VM, queried by a handwritten plate of uncommented PH spaghetti fit to feed an army of people with a serious death wish, without any framework or CMS. The very long BaseX script, very long PH presenter and very long XSLT stylesheet mostly perform the same heuristic document structuring for different components and are supposed to produce compatible results, but I bet they have mismatches somewhere. Since Prof. T just wanted a few small functional enhancements, I decided to just patch it and keep the general setup. Unless you were hired to correct some spelling mistakes, DO NOT FOLLOW IN MY STEPS. Putting up with this simulation of how a goldfish would design a system has literally given me CLINICAL DEPRESSION. This is not an exaggeration, I am writing this after a prolonged medical therapy - mostly successful, thanks for asking, but not fun. I wouldn't wish this code on anybody who isn't a manager at Oracle or Facebook, and therefore give you this sincere advice: Nuke this. Take the XSLT if you must, and then nuke the app and recreate it in Django or whatever works for you. I would do it myself, but I risked a relapse simply by opening this file again to write this comment. Dear brother or sister, I wish you all the luck and strength in the world and hope it will be enough.

Nothing says "modern operating system" quite like Windows telling you that Terminal—a basic app that should just work—isn't available in your account and you need to sign into the Store to fix it. Because apparently even your command line needs DRM now. The cherry on top? They give you an error code (0x803F8001) that looks like it was generated by a hex dump of Microsoft's organizational structure. Good luck Googling that—you'll find 47 different solutions, none of which work, and all of them involve rebooting, clearing the cache, or sacrificing a chicken to the Windows Update gods. Meanwhile, Linux users are out here just typing "terminal" and getting a terminal. Revolutionary concept, I know.

The entire internet is basically a Jenga tower held together by duct tape, prayers, and a few corporations we pretend to trust. At the very bottom, literally underwater, sharks are chomping on submarine cables because apparently even marine life has beef with our infrastructure. What's beautiful here is how the whole stack—from ASML making the chips, through Intel/AMD/Nvidia silicon, up past the Linux Foundation, DNS, AWS, Cloudflare, all the way to that precariously balanced mess of "modern digital infrastructure" with WASM and V8—depends on cables that sharks find delicious. Meanwhile, unpaid open source devs are basically holding the entire thing together with their bare hands while AI and Microsoft do... whatever they're doing up there. Fun fact: Sharks actually DO bite undersea internet cables, likely because the electromagnetic fields mess with their sensory organs. Google had to wrap their cables in Kevlar-like material. So yeah, your 404 error might literally be because a great white got hungry. The internet runs on vibes and shark-resistant coating.

Nothing says "please hack me" quite like a wholesome cat name quiz that asks for your SSH keys. Because why wouldn't you share the cryptographic credentials that grant root access to your entire infrastructure? The cats look so trustworthy! This is basically the security awareness training version of those "your stripper name is your credit card number + CVV" posts. Except instead of identity theft, you're handing over the literal keys to your kingdom. At least when your servers get compromised, you can tell your boss it was for a really cute cat meme. Pro tip: If your SSH key actually makes a good cat name, you've got bigger problems than social engineering attacks.

I no longer build software; I now make furniture out of wood. The hours are long, the pay sucks, and there's always the opportunity to remove my finger with a table saw, but nobody asks me if I can add an RSS feed to a DBMS, so there's that :-)
