I see 25yo devs getting hired as senior developers 🥸 I also see a lot of job offers for senior Rust engineers
Back in my old days, senior developers had 1200+ years of experience 👵🏻 like Gandalf
Has “senior” really become a meaningless buzz word? An alias for “motivated”?
When registering on online services, instead of your name, put the name of the service, so when you receive spam emails you know which filthy bastard sold your data 🙂

I dropped math in high school because I couldn’t wrap my head around trigonometry, now I need it for a side project and I understood it right away…
Nothing beats ed with context, I wish I knew it sooner
Maybe I’m having a kind of depression or something
Thinking about it for 2 months, my previous colleagues broke my self-confidence, they made up things to make me look like an incompetent parasite, they created dramas out of nothing, asked me incoherent questions in order to
I find Rust 🦀 to be very productive and well suited for a POC
💣 Want to go fast? Use unwrap, expect, empty tuples and underscores.
💥 Need stability now? Replace unwrap and expect with proper error handling.
💁🏻♀️
`yes` is by far the most mysterious Linux command to me, by default it prints “y” extremely fast, you can create gigantic files in a matter of seconds: `yes > yes.txt`
By the time I wrote this tweet, it made a 230Go file, it took about two minutes.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Remember the times when houses had a single central phone and each family had its number? You call a friend and her mom answered the phone “Hello this is Magda, can I talk to Emilie?”
Imagine a company that would democratically elect its CEO for a 4 to 5 years mandate. Would that benefit the company? If not, why would it benefit a country?
Has it ever happened to you that your coworkers weren’t happy with the way your work? I know, but has it ever happened that they didn’t tell you anything in an adult conversation and complained directly to the boss in an attempt to get you fired? Yeah, that’s messed up, right?
Context: I’m unemployed and have no will to find a job for now. I want to spend time developing a project that will make me proud of myself.
I recently developed a Telegram bot that posted scam prevention on public channels, the bot was a little too effective and now I’m banned
Prior to my account creation, a friend warned me that Twitter was very toxic. I’m on Twitter for a few months now and aside from some very anecdotal altercations, the people here are insanely nice!
The only times I faced Twitter toxicity was with French speakers 😐 Why?

J’ai une société sans salarié, l’État m’a volé approximativement 45 000€ l’année dernière et moi je finis dans le rouge tous les mois 🫠
I read it somewhere but I refer to it all the time so it’s worth sharing.
If you don’t remember the options for the `tar` command, talk to it in German:
- eXtract Ze File: “-xzf”
- Compress Ze File: “-czf”
Bitte schön 🍻
I don’t get why it is so important for a secured messenger to be open source, we have no guarantee an altered version doesn’t run on their servers or isn’t installed on our devices anyway
What am I missing?
@stats_feed
Time to flex 🤌🏻
Fluent: French, English, Russian
Enough to communicate: German, Spanish, toki pona, Italian, Latin
Basics: Chinese, Norwegian, Ukrainian, Esperanto
The reason I use “git fetch && git rebase” instead of “git pull” is because a senior dev told me it was better this way when I was an intern, he didn’t tell me why and now I do stuff for the only sake of not looking stupid 🫠
I’m coming to a point in my life where I’m genuinely excited to spend the night alone at home, coding with a glass of wine, rather than going to the club with my friends
I did it.
I slept poorly because I knew that today I had to read unintelligible logs to find a rare bug. I had no self-confidence and thought I’d make a fool of myself but I fucking did it.
This is better than an orgasm.
Tech influencers trying to fool people into going outside to touch grass while you can literally order grass via Telegram, people deliver it directly at home 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Having a stomach bug is the closest thing to the concept of happiness:
- No work
- In bed all day
- No eating, passive weight loss
- Nobody dares bothering, I need to rest
- Forced to drink coke
- Play Fallout on the Steam Deck all day
- I shamelessly get people to bring me stuff
Agile is like communism: designed by intellectuals, based on collaboration and collective effort, often fails to meet the expected results, people keep telling you it hasn’t been correctly implemented, and you can find a free manifesto online
Current developers have an interest in having young developers to believe programming came to an end because of AI, with fewer developers to occupy positions in companies, our salary will skyrocket
First experience with a recruiter from the UK: no bullshit, direct to the point, asks for GitHub profile instead of degree, 10/10
Also my English was good enough not to slow down the conversation, which is very good to know 🤙🥸🇬🇧
Update on the situation: they told me they were satisfied with my work, I told them I want to leave anyway 😄
I’m so happy I managed to turn the situation around! 😭🥳
Now I’m unemployed
Just showed them a banger procedural macro I’ve been baking for 2 weeks, they said it is perfect and they are impressed
That feeling, it will be the first peaceful week-end in 3 weeks 😻😇
Still looking to get out of this company though
📣 American video games companies 📣
Bethesda: “It just works”
EA: Literally the worst and most hated company in America
Blizzard: “Do you guys not have phones?”
Microsoft: Everything it touches turns into sh!t
📣 European video games companies 📣
Jagex: Single handedly

Have a nice day
Sometimes you just need to get wasted for 3 days straight to question everything in your life and start the week on a fresh mind and with a good mood
Happy Monday everyone 🙏🏻
EA is looking at putting in-game ads in AAA games — 'We'll be very thoughtful as we move into that,' says CEO
"Advertising has an opportunity to be a meaningful driver of growth for us."
I’m flying to Spain tomorrow ✈️ I heard there’s something there that my Parisian brain cannot conceptualise: good weather and warm temperatures 🥵
I’ll keep you updated with my discoveries 👩🏻🏫
We live in a time when you can take any inexpensive and basic computer to learn things that can help you earn a six-figure income. What else, other than programming, is able to achieve such a miracle?
I learned coding with C at a project driven school: if the projects we turned in crashed, we had an F
We were so bad at managing memory that not using the `free` function was a tip we gave to each other in all seriousness
BOOMERS 👴🏻👵🏻
When they were born, naz!s were defeated a few years ago, most houses didn’t have running water and the toilets were a little hut in the back of the garden.
Today my life consists of quietly typing on a keyboard 6.5h a day, playing video games, watching silly TV
My love and support for the Russian people is immeasurable, they are the greatest people and they are the ones who made me realise there’s more in life than sadness and depression.
Today they suffer from a sad and depressing event and I share their pain.
Я помолюсь за вас, вы
You’re a single man wondering why it’s so hard to find a girlfriend? Ask yourself this simple question: can you dance lezginka? 💁🏻♀️ If not, maybe it’s time to question yourself
@storyofharambe
It is called the exception that confirms the rule 💁🏻♀️ How many 25yo devs play League of Legends instead of crushing it on their data structure kills?

Give me your credit card number, it literally takes you less than 30 seconds and I’ve been proven to be more effective at securing personal data than Sony
I’m astonished to see people are putting effort into the gender war 💁🏻♀️ Yes men and women are different, yes we don’t think the same. So what? 👩🏻🤝👨🏼
Do all men think the same anyway? Are all women alike? Since when has it become an issue for people with different backgrounds and
