Look I don’t know everyone else’s family values, but I doubt they involve taking away the ability to pay bills Ohana means family unless billion dollar company struggles. Nobody in a company is family, they’re co-workers and fuck the hypocrisy of corporate values. Be a good worker, not a good…

Sometimes I wish I could stop and smell the roses I’ll admit everyone who writes code is kind of brain broken. Anything that has a 90% failure and 10% success rate feels like it should be avoided at all costs. Unfortunately, high pay and masochism runs rampant in software development…

Do people write this shit unironically? Nope, that isn’t photoshop or a parody. This is the real world kiddos. If I say I’m “thoughtful and transparent” my hands are clean then baby. I serve the shareholders and that’s what is best for the employees of Microsoft. …

Giving chase sometimes ain’t worth it — Read an article about median tech salaries? Visited Levels FYI and compared high values of Microsoft and Amazon salaries for data engineers?

If you’ve read articles from me before, you know how pessimistic I am, but this is a middle-of-the-road one from me — Ah, everyone wants to be advertised as the hero.

Does make for some…
