why would I want to get paid market rate to make some billionaire dipshit's dream a reality when I can get a much lower stress job and work on my own things
what modern programmers don't understand is C *is* the easy option, if you want control over your hardware. it's doing a tremendous amount of heavy lifting for you

how do I tell my system to preemptively index and generate thumbnails or whatever the fuck it needs to do so I can browse this remote share without massive lag every time I enter a new directory
that pisses me off, but I also just don't want to work with people who don't know anything. they bring these tokens in and they're not just useless, they're liabilities
I've been watching women and shitskins walk into high paying dev jobs on the strength of a fucking todo app for 10 years while I've *never* made decent money in this industry no matter what I brought to the table

as amusing as I find it that notorious white-hating samuel l jackson would choose to play a role that affirms every negative stereotype there is about gay, lying niggers, the movie is unremarkable at best. tarantino is the m. night shyamalan of schlock
okay so suppose I want to buy a cheap (used) android that can be updated to run arbitrary current apps on my home internet without a cell plan, what do I get
I don't want to mess around with my regular phone, it needs to stay functional in case someone wants to hire me for $500,000 a year (it could happen)
if you're speaking english, and you're using a foreign word that is nevertheless commonly used by english speakers, don't pronounce it with some foreign accent because you sound like a pretentious twat
