Microsoft Please Fix

let's turn this into a constructive angle for future devs and current juniors: just learn git cli, I promise you it is much simpler than it seems.

all those memes about git having like a thousand commands are true, but you really will only use like 7 at most per month.

learn push, pull, merge, squash, stash, reset, im probably missing like one or two

I promise you again: it is much simpler than it seems. and you won't have to use these stupid git GUI things, and it will save you a hassle because you will know what commands you are running and what they do

short disclaimer: using git GUI is totally fine but low-key you are missing out on so much

Sometimes, it's backwards

I think it's on a case by case basis but having help desk ppl help you out and opening powershell and noodling without any concept of problem solving made me make this face once.

It probably goes both ways, I'm a dev and I assembled computers at 12 yo so I believe I have a lot of experience and knowledge when it comes to hardware. I've also written code for embedded platforms.

IT people in my pov can really come across as enthusiast consumers when it comes to their hardware knowledge.

"did you guys hear Nvidia has the new [marketing term] wow!" . Have you ever thought about what [marketing term] actually does past just reading the marketing announcement?

At the same time I swear to God devs who use macs have no idea how computers work at all and I mean EXCLUDING their skill as a dev. I've had them screen share to see what I imagine is a baby's first day on a computer.

To close this rant: probably goes both ways

AI will create the most cursed entry jobs humans have yet to see.

First job in the old days doing WordPress, managing someone's vomit inducing PHP? Gone.

Jobs with jQuery spaghetti calling dozens of asp APIs like a rat's nest no rat can traverse? Gone.

Welcome to the future: Fixing some "business" guy's vibe coded personal hell made just for you.

Must Be Fun

English is bent to our will in daily life and yet people act like God wrote the law on how to speak English and we're all committing sins of biblical proportions.

No. You know what ? "Me and Mark" is perfectly okay because you understood exactly what the sentence meant. That's the purpose of language.
