Translation: "We're going to make the suite for building, testing, and deploying so obnoxiously difficult to integrate with your work environment that in two years nobody in your DevOps team will be able to get anything to a release state."

Me, fiddling with a config file for a legacy Perl script that's been holding up the ass-end of the business since 1996: "Uh, yeah that's great."

I left my job in fast food to go to school for tech because it seemed like the thing to do and I wanted to have a good life and be able to afford stuff. So I ruined my life getting a piece of paper only for them to enshittify things to oblivion and destroy the job market to the point it's fast food or retail only again. I suppose getting a masters in something is the logical next step but at a certain point a scam's a scam and I'm not digging a deeper hole.

  • “I think there is a world market for maybe five computers”.
  • “640K ought to be enough for anybody.”

Nonsense. But then CEOs rarely know what the hell they’re talking about.

Can I join anyone's band of AI server farm raiders 24 months from now? Anyone forming a group? I will bring my meat bicycle.

Guys selling something claim it will make you taller and thinner, your dick bigger, your mother in law stop calling, and work as advertised.
