I think I'd like to go bigger with it next year.

I enjoy writing software, but...

I'm sick of making yet another fucking CRM.

I'm sick of trying to keep data synced between seven different third-party services.

I'm sick of trying to pull everything in the database into a single fucking dashboard.

I'm sick of trying to stay within a budget that's based on some wild-ass guesstimates made by someone who quit over a year ago.

I'm sick of creating things that will only ever be seen by a couple people in some random companies, and will be enjoyed by nobody.

I'm wondering if anyone here has gone through this process, and what the experience was like. (I'm not asking for help with any particular error or anything like that. At least not yet).

I got put in charge of maintaining an old codebase that includes Xamarin projects for android and ios and we seem to have run into a situation where we need to update the framework not just for security, but to keep the mobile app fully functional as Apple and Google update their APIs.

I did see that there was a button in Visual Studio to automatically upgrade the project, but apparently "upgrade" means "break fuckin' everything" so I'm guessing I'll need to take a more manual approcach and also blow a bunch of hours on finding replacements for all the dependencies that required Xamarin and are no longer maintained.

My biggest problem is that I haven't even heard of Xamarin before this thing got dropped in my lap so I have some confusion about how it's supposed to work on top of my normal baseline amount of confusion.

This is at least the second email I got asking to "collaborate" on Google Play. Protect your accounts, folks.

My favorite part is how he addresses it to himself.

Well, actually my dog found it, but I got a short video.

I'm not sure exactly when, but at some point in the past month I stopped getting text messages in a group chat between my mom and siblings. Weird thing is I don't seem to have any problem getting texts sent just to me, or even with other group texts (as far as I know).

We mostly just share memes and shit, but it drives me nuts thinking that someone could be trying to tell me something and it just doesn't reach my phone.

I had her for at least 18 years and she was special. She was shy and spent 99% of her time in my bedroom, but she was also pretty vocal and would often reply when you spoke to her.
