Torvalds Is Going In Yours Too

6 days ago 281.8K views 0 shares

Someone tried to dunk on Linux saying it "never succeeded" and got absolutely ratio'd with one of the most devastating comebacks in tech history. Linux runs everything from servers to smartphones to Mars rovers... and apparently the embedded systems in adult toys. The beauty here is that Linux's success is so overwhelming that you can't escape it even in your most private moments. Linus Torvalds really did take over the world, one microcontroller at a time. The person who made that original tweet probably sent it from an Android phone running Linux, connected to servers running Linux, through routers running Linux. The irony is thicker than kernel documentation.

Save Me From Gradle Please

You want to make a game? Cool! You're using Java? Great choice! Oh wait, you're using Gradle as your build tool? Say hello to your new full-time job: deciphering cryptic dependency resolution errors that read like ancient hieroglyphics written by a caffeinated elephant. The Gradle elephant starts off looking all cute and friendly, but then it transforms into this nightmare creature that throws walls of red text at you. "Failed to resolve all artifacts for configuration 'classpath'" – yeah, thanks buddy, super helpful. Nothing says "fun game development" quite like spending 6 hours debugging your build system instead of actually building your game. The best part? The error message is longer than your actual game code. Gradle's basically that friend who can't give you simple directions and instead explains the entire history of the road system.

Bro Did Not Deserve This

Android developer tries to have a reasonable conversation about Apple users and immediately gets nuked from orbit. Guy literally admits Android is garbage, explains his Apple preference with actual logic (security, ecosystem, lifestyle), and still gets roasted for allegedly spending time on Instagram instead of fixing Android. Brother threw him under the bus, backed up, and ran him over again. The self-own is spectacular. "Me being an android developer I also say android is shit" is the kind of brutal honesty that deserves respect, not a clapback about sliding into DMs. Man was just trying to bridge the iOS-Android divide and got absolutely demolished for his troubles.

Bob The Bug Fixer

Samsung's entire changelog for their app update is literally just "Bub fix" with heart emojis. Not "bug fix" - Bub fix. Someone at Samsung either has the world's most adorable typo or they're fixing some mysterious entity called "Bub" that we mere mortals don't understand. The real comedy gold here is that this passed through their entire development pipeline, QA testing, and release process. Somewhere, a product manager signed off on this. Multiple people saw "Bub fix" and collectively shrugged. Corporate software development at its finest - where the changelog is as broken as the bugs they're supposedly fixing. Nothing screams "we totally know what we're doing" like a typo in a two-word update description. At least they added hearts to soften the blow of their quality assurance process taking a vacation.

I Mean...

The beautiful circle of life where every OS gets to complain about their own special brand of torture. Windows can't stop forcing updates at 3 AM when you're mid-presentation. Apple won't let you install that perfectly good app from 2019 because it's "not optimized" (translation: we want our 30% cut). Android ships with 47 pre-installed apps you'll never use but can't uninstall because they're "essential system components." And Linux? Well, Linux users are just vibing, having achieved enlightenment through pain and sudo commands. The bottom panel really seals the deal—everyone's accepted their fate and learned to smile through the suffering. Peak Stockholm syndrome energy right here.

Kotlin Will Save You And Me Both

Kotlin Android Programming Java

Java out here acting like a precision weapon aimed directly at your codebase, ready to obliterate everything with NullPointerExceptions, verbose boilerplate, and that special kind of pain only checked exceptions can deliver. But then Kotlin swoops in like a cozy safety blanket, wrapping your code in null safety, extension functions, and data classes that don't require 47 lines of getters and setters. Your codebase goes from "under attack" to "chilling on a peaceful beach" real quick. It's basically Google's way of saying "yeah, we know Java hurts, here's some aspirin" when they made Kotlin the preferred language for Android. Your legacy Java code is still down there somewhere, but at least now it's protected.

What Do You Guys Even Do

The universal app store changelog. Every single update: "Bug fixes and improvements." Yeah, but which bugs? What improvements? Did you fix that crash that's been haunting me for three months or did someone just adjust a button's padding by 2 pixels? It's the developer equivalent of "I don't want to talk about it." Could be a critical security patch. Could be they changed the shade of blue in the settings menu. You'll never know. The changelog has spoken, and it has chosen violence through vagueness. Bonus points to Yahoo Finance for at least pretending to be specific with "several bug fixes" instead of just "bug fixes." Wow, several . That's practically a novel compared to the others.

Someone tried to dunk on Linux by saying it "never succeeded" and got absolutely obliterated with a comeback about embedded systems. Because yeah, Linux totally failed... except it's running on literally billions of devices including the servers hosting that tweet, Android phones, routers, smart fridges, and apparently adult toys. The "sry bro" makes it even funnier because dude walked right into that one. Nothing says success like being so ubiquitous that people forget you're everywhere.

Looking For Android Dev From 1315

Ah yes, the classic job posting requiring 710 years of Android experience. Must have started developing apps during the Medieval period, right after finishing your daily jousting practice. Maybe they're looking for someone who coded Android apps on parchment scrolls? £400/day seems a bit low for someone who's been coding since before electricity was invented. Time travelers only need apply!

Big Tech Security Theater

OMG THE HYPOCRISY IS KILLING ME! 💀 Google out here preaching about killing sideloading for "security reasons" while their own Play Store is LITERALLY hosting sketchy "UNOFFICIAL" apps with 10K+ downloads! The cognitive dissonance is so thick you could cut it with a knife! And that app? "Fitgirl Repacks"?? For those not in the know, that's basically code for "pirated games repackaged" - the EXACT security nightmare they're supposedly fighting against! The irony is so delicious I can't even! Google's security theater deserves a standing ovation for this performance! 👏

New Hire Onboarding: Expectations vs. Reality

Ah, the beautiful delusion of Day 1. "I'll quickly get up and running..." they say, right before meeting the crimson wall of dependency hell. What they don't tell you in the interview is that your first two weeks will be spent wrestling with environment setup, missing packages, incompatible versions, and permission errors that make you question your career choices. The real coding challenge isn't algorithms—it's getting your development environment to stop screaming at you in angry red text. By the time you actually write your first line of production code, you'll have aged approximately 7 years.
