Holy moly... It's being 6 months without finding a new job :'( And I'm almost unable to focus on my freelance job. Though times...
Do you know those old browser games that were like just forms that you select an action and wait real time for it to conclude... sometimes have an image or two. Do we have something similar in Gemini?
Is there any community centered about old HTTP specs? I mean, just like there is one for Gemini and Gopher, for example. Pages using HTML2 only and maybee HTTP (no S), something around these lines.
I'm addicted to Balatro. Send help.
Btw, HTMX for frontend is *chef kiss*
I'm taking my time without job to learn more about other languages and oh man... I think I loved Erlang/Gleam. It makes a lot of sense for backend applications!
What is computing than just moving strings around?
14 years working with SQL Server and a interviewer gave a feedback that is "concerned about my abilities with SQL". Go to hell...
Month 4 of unemployment. At least I have a side project with a friend that is keeping me alive for this and the next month. But oh boy I feel like I can't do shit.
Why there are people with 4 or 5 lines of current job on Linkedin? lol
I was invited for an AI Interview that I need to schedule (?) and will be with cam and mic. This feels so stupid.
Don't trust your job to teach anything or even professional growth.
3 months down and I still unemployed. No place for a old .NET software engineer I guess...
I had one of the worst experiences in programming by creating an app using React. What a terrible ecosystem!
I just got fired. 2024 is being a hell of a ride already...
What a eventful december/january. Not in a good way, but things are getting better! Have been playing a lot of modern games for a change (Yakuza series, Sonic Frontiers, Street Fighter 6, and Stray). Gotta update my capsule with the new game list!
Any other whisky lovers here? Blended, grain, or single malt! What is your favorite? Mine probably is between Laphroaig and Bunnahabhain 12 (for now).
Finally I have updated my Gemlog. Basically the games I am playing/completed list. For a long time I don't feel like writing a post. Sometime maybe.
It's official: Just had my second burnout :(
It's official. I hate snap packages! Easy to install and maintain but they bring the worst of Windows that is updates attthe worst time possible
Any service or kind of information you miss in Gemini that maybe would reduce your time in the "regular" web?
Hello from Haiku OS! (Using Kristall)
My game dev company will probably one of the first to have a Gemini site. (Launching soon!)
Never seen such a big BS ever https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/07/googles-web-integrity-api-sounds-like-drm-for-the-web/
I miss BeOS. I should try Haiku some day. I used BeOS as my daily driver on early 2000s.
I am having the feeling again of having lot to do but not excited for anything :(
Programming in a real SC-3000H Basic now! I was able to connect the tape interface to Line-In/Speaker of my PC to save and load the program. Soon I will release something.
Procedural programming is harder than I remember.
One thing I hate about snaps: They update packages WAY to silently. Brave is updating and there is no indication of it other than the snap list shows as disabled. Or am I missing something?
I getting tired of being rejected on new job interviews :) Almost 14 years in Webforms did me no good. I blame my jobs and myself too.
I surrender. I will need to learn... React 🥲
Why I can't find a decent article or doc on how to add code completion on VIM based on my own project headers (working in C++). I already have CoC installed but looks there is no server for c++. I'm using VSCode for it :')
Dealing with anxiety and depression in a job that is not motivating is really though :/
Good morning to all people reading this! Hope your day is great and your dreams come true soon ❤️
I'm having some good fun with Laravel/PHP! Nice all in one solution that I find simple and easy to understand and use. I'm tired of .NET lol
Very excited to hear new Peter Gabriel songs after 20 years since the last studio album :)
Yesterday I went to a Information Society concert. Great music!
Being on Gemini after a week working with webdev is like a breath of fresh air.
Thinking about starting a gemcast to rumble about current technologies and talk about alternatives. Also express myself as a frustrated webdev for 13 years and talk about what is the real meaning of "knowing" something...
Finally back to the gym! This January is aready better than the whole last year, lol.
Fun fact: I have just 1 follower in Station but my reach and interaction is waaaaaaay above the one I get in Twitter.
The "web3" idea of login with a "wallet" is almost like the certificate login that we use in Gemini, but this DeFi world is so full of BS.
Web3 and crypto calling themselves a "decentralized web" is such a BS, lol. I kinda like the idea of cryptocoins and that's it. NFTs and other things of "web3" are just plain stupid.
2022 was horrible. Never had so many deceptions in a single year.
Btw I published the alpha of my ninja platformer game on itch.io, not a big hit of course but finally got something out of my back. Now it's back to my other big project and then back to this one.... yeah, I have several projects going at the same time otherwise I get bored.
Back on Gemini after some time out! Still tired and pursuiting indie game dev as a fulltime job. lol
Impressive that in 2022 I still need to use Windows just for online banking. Blergh.
My desktop PC case have a grilled top. So the cat pissed INSIDE my computer and all over my graphics card. :') Luckily all survived.
A note for all fellow developers out there: You don't need to be productive 100% of the time. Take time to rest and do nothing productive. Go wild and then come back. Do something that will not be userful at work or anything. That is OK. Enjoy! :)
Just joined the station and already loving the idea! Nice to be here.
