  • I was put in a team as a “care lead” because I was Polish and the team was Polish too. Weren’t allowed to be the actual teamleader, that was given to a dude from the US. He was absent like 99% of the time, made like two one hour meetings to “transfer knowledge” over 6 months. Then he came back, started getting pissy that people treated me as the teamlead instead of him, went to his manager and got me “transferred” out. Also, all of the scrummasters (like 8 different teams) were black, went through the company “academy” (basically a 3 month bootcamp) without any prior IT / programming experience, with completely incomprehensible accents. Some of them were later fired for security issues (one took a company laptop with medical software and client data, hardcore HIPAA shit, to Africa, without disclosing it, getting it cleared / secured), incompetence or bad fit. I think three were left after a year I was there.



  • Never have I used open source software that has achieved that, or was even close to achieving it. Usually it is opinionated (you need to do it this way in this exact order, because that’s how we coded it. No, you cannot do the same thing but select from the back), lacks features and breaks. Especially CAD - comparing Solidworks to FreeCAD for instance, where in FreeCAD any change to previous ops just breaks everything. Modelling software too - Blender compared to 3ds Max - can’t do half the things.








  • “Read a book” - sure, let’s read something. How about the fact that Trump’s envoy visited Gaza like 10 days before. How about the fact that Biden did fuckall for the entirety of the time about it. How about the fact that the deal is the exact same as the one that Israel rejected in November.

    But sure, it was Biden (who literally called himself a zionist, who literally promised his daddy to support Israel no matter what), he just really wanted a few more months of genocide before Israel was kindly asked to cut the shit and decided to stop. And he did it on the very last few days of the presidency, just for the memes.






  • Meanwhile I had the opposite problem. Lots of friends that happened to be girls. Then they find a partner, and the conversations, meetups and discussions fizzle away, especially if I stop initiating contact. I then learn years down the line “oh yeah I had such a huge crush on you” or “I’da fucked your brains out” or some other combination. And then general blaming for me not “making the move” like no shit, I treated you as a friend. If you wanted that, just say it openly please
