Senior software engineer. Lots of bugs and mistakes from juniors and associates. Good luck lol.

Excuse me, I took an Internet IQ test and the result was 85. That means I'm smarter than 85% of people right? Right?

The reason is DRM. Windows supports some baked in DRM that Linux doesn't.

Scrubs is one of my all time favorite shows, but after season 5 it's unbearable to me.

Yeah that seems to be the same I'm hearing. They're on high alert and are stepping up their monitoring and stuff. It's ironic that they're so intense on physical security and stuff, but their cyber stuff is so outdated.

I have a friend in cyber Sec that's working for a different casino brand. They're all on super high alert this morning. There's so much of the same software across brands that they're all scared as shit.

I write and record/program music, often by myself but sometimes with others. I never release any of it though. Last release I did was in 2014 but it wasn't my music. I was just the drummer for my friend who doesn't play drums.

I worked with this guy when I was a sysadmin. There were usually three of us on shift. He refused to do anything and would encourage us to ignore tickets as well. He tried to be the manager once the manager was out for the day cuz we worked a swing shift. I already disliked him, but one day the first shifter came back from vacation in Miami. He asked if the first shifter "saw any of them [slur for gay people]"

I'm gay myself and immediately went to HR and he was fired on the spot. For the next couple weeks, if I went out for a smoke, the chill as shit security guard would stand outside with me, cuz this guy definitely had anger problems. He was worried he might try to come back and hurt me.

Maccy Deez Nuts? I'll show myself out.

I hate the company for various reasons, but they do make some of the best NA beers.

I used to play regex games online lol. I once wrote a pattern for work that was ~200 characters. I loved doing it lol.

Lol my favorite recent story to tell people lately is that I got diagnosed with lupus a monthish ago. Prior to the suggestion, I had been watching House again. The universe was just like, "fuck you" lol

Yeah. We wrote unit tests and integration tests, but we needed ui tests, which none of us were strong in at the time. One bug I remember fondly, it was possible to abuse debounce basically to submit bad info by switching an input after hitting submit. This happened more than you would expect. Took us forever to figure it out till we were able to get a UI tester from another team to figure it out. The human element is super useful in testing

Not for my old app that had to be audited 6 times a year lol. Any data defect had to be explained in a one page summary. Now imagine you regularly have ~30k concurrent users. The wrong bug means tons of paperwork that brings us all out of development mode to write and support.

Exactly. So glad I left there.

I work in software dev. My old job laid off our entire QA team at once and presented it as an opportunity to learn doing testing as a developer.

This was a regular bug all the time with Reddit when I still used it. Sometimes it would just break for a bit on these views.

I don't believe a word you've said. You're just pretending to be someone.

She literally turned the car to try and avoid the pig. Go fuck yourself.

Yeah. She's a piece of shit as well. What the absolute fuck?
