I try to fight some battles about ads, accessibility and an open web but I’m a failing don Chiosciotte; best I can actively do is test mainly for Firefox and make sure everything works properly there but for more business related decisions (see: ads, consent etc) there is little to nothing I can do

Or some stupid Facebook “””issue”””

I mean, it’s two unique cheracters why are people so confused?!

The designer team once did a toggle button with the inverse logic and I was so confused when I had to implement that. It must be my antithesis.

It works if you visited the website already but the first time it breaks: reloading fixes this while emptying the caches breaks it again. As another user pointed out the first click after emptying the cache doesn’t do anything at all even though the animation plays out just fine

EDIT: I’m on safari ios, latest stable (17.3.1 if I’m not mistaken)

Your theme toggle is confusing, it shows the sun when the dark mode is enabled and vice versa

You thought it was true but it was I, One!

What if it only contains @?

I get stuck at step 2

If I can code doesn’t mean I know how to do X thing on your stupid phone

feature

Please, we ship whole projects without any automated testing whatsoever then we spend month fixing the mess. The company I work for is smort

I don’t even know what a y=3x+2 is but I have no problem with programming, algorithms and data structures

Then I will be scolded for wasting time adding tests

frontend

Yeah I don’t think unit testing would be useful. I don’t think though that integration tests etc are useless though, more so now that it is possible to test the UI states too. I didn’t know playwright to be fair, I read it “automatically” generates tests? Maybe I did misunderstand

They know. We have had a production website being literally unusable, sucking up a lot of resources for a bug.

We have a client which is MAD cause the project is riddled with bugs, but the solution somehow is paying more attention. Except that it clearly isn’t feasible to pay more attention when you have to check, recheck and check again the same thing over and over… They say it’s a waste cause you can’t catch UI, and you will spend the same amount of time NOT writing tests; obviously this is all crap, but they somehow think they are smarter than google or any other small or big company that do write test

It’s pointless if they get mad at me for “wasting time” writing tests and nobody maintains or write them.

… yes, a non profit is not meant to earn a profit. A profit is earning something more than what you need to be functioning.

Just add blockchain to something, it will show em!

Non profit doesn’t mean they earn nothing

Assembly, so I can shorten my lifetime quite a lot

Which is also why I’m a shitty webdev

This is fucking awesome

Yeah like, wtf

don’t use the git cli. In my professional life I don’t know a single person who does

I do, I find it much simpler than using the GUIs

Then they are shitty random articles, sometime with a very dumb tutorial in it. Whenever my coworkers sent articles like this my eyes start rolling so hard I could use them to produce energy

I meant as in with Express and similar

Nuxt + graphql or C# (the latter I’m still studying but it’s not bad).

Definitely not JS or Java

JS/TS cause it’s my job and easy quite fast to write code in it, so it’s good for quick prototypes (or when I want to go dirty). Rust for when I want to write something actually good. It has a better ecosystem, building tools, and the DX is much better compared to C++ which is just an eldritch clusterfuck where dreams die

@sahrizv: 2014 - We must adopt #microservices to solve all problems with monoliths. 2016 - We must adopt #docker to solve all problems with microservices. 2018 - We must adopt #kubernetes to solve all problems with docker

Now everything is a microservice, even when it doesn’t need to be.

And then there is the whole noSql debacle, where relational projects reinvent the wheel every time with nosql and for some reason that is thought to be smart

My first job was remote too, my second one too, yet now I find harder to find a remote job… am I cursed?

is it worth it over Brave Search/DDG/Startpage?
