  • breaks tests

    leaves me to fix them during approval

    I’m sorry, what? If he broke it, he fixes it. There should be guard rails that prevent him from merging his code until all the tests pass, and you as a reviewer should refuse to even start a code review unless the build is green.

  • Who says you have to drop it? I've got stuff from 2007 in there somewhere.

  • You get two options.

    Normally it’s a squashed commit of everything in a feature, with a commit message like:

     
        
    [JIRA-1234] - Descriptive but Concise Name of Feature
    
      

    But every now and then it’s multiple commits like:

     
        
    quick fix
    Ugh, fix typo
    fuck fuck why doesn’t it work
    Oh, I’m stupid
    
      
    • Installs antivirus on servers that wrecks application performance
    • installs content filtering proxy that prevents developers from reading “hacking materials” like OWASP documentation
    • won’t let developers install anything on their own machines without filing a ticket and waiting 6 weeks
    • pushes unannounced antivirus updates that pop up OS security dialogs like “Netscan Antivirus would like to monitor all network traffic. Enter your password to approve”, and is surprised when users don’t enter their passwords.

    Your corporate IT guy

  • The BBC is also letting Unilever’s Russian employees be conscripted.

  • Y’all gonna regret this when Ron DeSantis gets put in charge of deciding which information is false enough to be deleted.

  • Hmm, does lemmy have username filters?

  • Here’s how I do it.

  • I’m sticking with Mlem for now, though they’re all 99% the same

  • You're doing great so far. I predict a 90% chance of that community becoming a hit.

  • Which instance is the good XCOM community on? !xcom@lemmy.world ? (let’s see if I did the formatting right)

  • 4 years later: "this button is the wrong color. fix it ASAP"

  • I’m old enough to remember when Rick Berman was the guy who ruined Star Trek.

  • Several years ago I made an ill-advised trip to the ATM in a strip club. My bank did the smart thing and cut me off, so I called the number on the back of the card but an automated recording told me they’re closed and to call back during business hours. Went home with enough money to still pay rent, but still needed to unlock the account, so I called first thing in the morning. The entire process was automated. “Press 1 if this transaction was from you or 2 if your card was stolen”.

    Not sure if the automated system takes the night off, or if there’s just an extra rule that lies about it to help you avoid certain mistakes.

  • Avatar The Last Airbender has the same amount of lore as Star Trek? How are we measuring this?

  • I’ve been using a site called The Boring Report and liking it so far.

    One thing I think might be a fun bonus feature would be to use AI to turn the neutral version back into something slanted to the user’s particular brand of crazy.

  • Even when it first happened, she leaned into it and capitalized on it really well. I remember CollegeHumor did a whole fantastic "Black Friday" parody thing featuring her not long after the video went viral.

  • it actually slaps

    These old memes caused me to briefly forget how out of touch I am with today's youth. Thanks for reigning me in.

  • You’re supposed to wait until they re-release it on a new console with the same graphics for $70, then pay for it then, dummy.
