  • I know the rest of the comments here are all really negative but I want to bring some positivity.

    I’m so happy for him that he’s lost all that weight. That’s an incredible achievement.

    Also, it’s one of the craziest swerves of all time on YouTube. Dude was one of the biggest lolcows on the internet. I’m sure several drama YouTubers had to trash videos. Like, even just a week ago he released a video where everyone was like, “he’s gonna die any day”. And he was just losing weight this whole time and he had that much of a backlog of videos. That’s unhinged but in the best possible way. I’m just happy and impressed for him.






  • I’m gonna be completely honest. I don’t truly get all the inner working of git. I’m a senior DevOps Engineer and been using git for a decade, but is git is simular to sed or awk for me. I know how to do what I want really well but when shit goes wrong, I’m flying by the seat of my pants.

    A lot of times, I just know what to do to fix things because it’s rote memory with substitutions. But if you needed me to explain upstreams and rebases in actual detail, I’d be in trouble. But it rarely becomes an actual problem to the level where I’ll dedicate time to learning all the advanced stuff.

    That said, I’ve learnt that most senior people also just pretend they get it all but instead are just relying on rote memorization and basic concepts. Anyone else here in the same camp of being a fraud with git?








  • The company reportedly told employees they can apply for other jobs within the company, though some doubt they’re qualified for other Apple roles in the city, and most don’t plan to move.

    Sounds like it’s QA people. Which sucks extra hard cause that’s a much harder field to get another job in. If they were software engineers, the world would be their oysters. I bet a lot of people will make the move and it’s quite shitty and cynical from apple to move a team that doesn’t have a lot of options.

    If they tried to move an engineering team to texas, they know they’d get told to get fucked
