i'll become a tech recruiter and ask chatgpt for racist pickup lines as well
<ChadGPT>
you reminded me of something
<ChadGPT>
hrmpf does not show up on g
<ChadGPT>
maybe i have racist filter
<ChadGPT>
anyhow, there was a company shit-generating t-shirts with last names and harassing peope on facebook
<ChadGPT>
with targeted advert
<ChadGPT>
there this White family
<ChadGPT>
was
<ChadGPT>
they got proposed shirts like "Just White things"

i'm an average developer
elastic_dog has quit [Killed (molybdenum.libera.chat (Nickname regained by services))]
elastic_dog has joined #osdev
<heat>
being average is pretty decent
<gog>
i want to be a better developer
<gog>
but i think i have a critical deficiency in that i'm very stupid
<gog>
also it's the day before a holiday and i've done a lot this week and i don't really want to apply myself anymore
<gog>
altho the other developer and the CEO both told me i do a good job today
<gog>
so
<gog>
imposter syndrome has to set in behind that
<heat>
see that's good
<heat>
maybe you're a good developer
<heat>
i certainly think so
<gog>
i have certain qualities and attitudes that make me occasionally very good at my job. i just wish i was more consisently insightful becuase idk how to solve this problem that's in front of me rn
slidercrank has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]

maybe i'll do pen and paper things for a bit and see what i figure out
<sham1>
You can't always have the answers. And sometimes, even if you do everything correctly you may still fail. That is not a weakness, that is life
<ChadGPT>
i got bad news gog
<ChadGPT>
"you doin' great" and similar is standard management speak, at best it means nothing
<heat>
... positive as always
<ChadGPT>
mat,e i have been at this shite more almost as long as you have been alive to begin with
<sham1>
Very. That's a silly attitude to take
<heat>
thank god you don't work at a suicide hotline
<ChadGPT>
praise is zero cost and at best means nothing. you know how much you are valued or not by $$
<ChadGPT>
at the same time pats on the back or calling you a rockstar are just empty gestures if not paired with $$
<ChadGPT>
taking a manager statement literally is one silly attitude right there
<ChadGPT>
sham1: when a manager thanks everyone for a productive meeting, do you think the meeting was in fact productive by their assesment? :]
<sham1>
Well I'd say "no" just due to the very nature of meetings themselves being inefficient
<ChadGPT>
here is a funny example for you whicn i remember i already shared on this channel
<ChadGPT>
dude which was ok on competency scale had the lowest salary in the team by a large margin
<ChadGPT>
he got a quarterly award for some bullshit
<heat>
when your wife says she loves you, is it valuable or a meaningless gesture?
<ChadGPT>
which amounts for monopoly money
<ChadGPT>
he asked for a raise, was told no
<ChadGPT>
there you go, worthy of getting an award and a pat on the back, not worthy of earning at the same level as the rest of the team
<ChadGPT>
heat: that's some mental gimnasticks you got going right there
<heat>
it's an extreme example to basically say "not everyone is manipulative"
<gog>
i did get a raise actually
<ChadGPT>
you missed the part where this is a fundamentally different relationship
<ChadGPT>
gog: there you go, in that case good for you
<ChadGPT>
it did meansomething
<heat>
not everyone is out to fuck you
<ChadGPT>
of course not
<ChadGPT>
i am saying that management gestures not backed by $$ are there to placate you
<ChadGPT>
and they are common
<ChadGPT>
here is another funny example
<ChadGPT>
dude asked for a raise in february, was told to ask again in april
<ChadGPT>
the entire got sacked in march
<ChadGPT>
team*
<heat>
ok, what does that matter?
<ChadGPT>
whatever, i'm done with the subject
<heat>
options: 1) corp was already in some deep shit in feb, did not think they would go into deeper shit so "yeah whatvs ask l8er" 2) the manager was the coldest hearted cunt ever
<ChadGPT>
the corp was ont in big shit
<ChadGPT>
they were marked for being sacked already
<ChadGPT>
manager did not want to let the guy know most likely to cover his own ass
<ChadGPT>
as in was not allowed to reveal the info at the time
<ChadGPT>
managers are mostly talking heads for upper layers, they act like that out of self preservatin
<ChadGPT>
here is another example for you
<ChadGPT>
a manager who was friends with my deskmate told my deskmate that $idea is nonsense, but nothing can be done, upper mgmt is pushing for it
<ChadGPT>
the same managre told me that the idea is fucking great
<ChadGPT>
:]
<ChadGPT>
in general trusting management is such a naive take i don't even know how to express it
<ChadGPT>
perhaps you are the sort who thinks that "open door policy" at a workplace means you are free to express your criticism
<gog>
the only response i have to that is that the company i work for is very, very small and that we don't have the sort of stereotypical corporate culture that lends itself to platitudes or unproductive interactions like that
<gog>
also i figured out the problem
<gog>
i think
<gog>
yep
<ChadGPT>
do you do webdev in RUST?
<gog>
our backend is C# :Z
<gog>
asp.net
<gog>
which is fine i guess
<gog>
this product predates everybody who actually works on it now so we can't exactly just do something better
Left_Turn has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]
<ChadGPT>
:)
<ChadGPT>
this is precisely why you *can* provided some other conditions are met
<gog>
we don't have a big enough team for that
<gog>
not unless there's some sales frontend we can adapt easily
<gog>
there are three programmers, one of them is the CTO who is pulling double-duty as our devops engineer
<gog>
then me and a contractor who works remotely
<gog>
we're fighting tech debt AND the features the board and the CEO want to see
<gog>
there's too much momentum with the old product and not enough energy to get a matching momentum on a new product
<gog>
i would love to rip the guts out of our sales frontend and fix it for good because it's bad
<gog>
but the business side of that is we'd have to convince the board it's worth the time and money
<gog>
we can overcome the technical challenge we have without a totally new codebase, but the consequence of that is we have a product that gets more unstable over time
<gog>
maybe there's a balancing point where the cost is worth it
<gog>
but we're not there yet

here is a funny example of a unix geezer stating a bogosity which one may easily believe if they don't know any better
<ChadGPT>
person claimed that when in userspace running some binary, perf is only related to what the binary is doing
<ChadGPT>
it is the binary and the cpu
<ChadGPT>
[for those who don't know, such a process can be influenced as follows: 1. moved around by the scheduler 2. have (or not) hugepages 3. libc may or may not be shafting it with crap routines ... and so on]
<kof123>
skimming the recent thread and month before...there is a limited number of ppl who have the skillset to fix something too
<kof123>
you can report problems all day long...someone has to show up who is qualified
<ChadGPT>
some of these should have *never* happened
<ChadGPT>
the nice bug is from a change which claimed to help stuff
<ChadGPT>
it clearly did not receive sensible testing before landing
<ChadGPT>
shit happens, everyone has patches like that
<ChadGPT>
but it does strenghten my position that you should not take perf claims at face value
<ChadGPT>
the author would have you believe the patch was $$
<ChadGPT>
well let me restate. with sensible testing it would never happen, but in the real world everyone got total bullshit landing at osme point
<ChadGPT>
the more judgment-impaired you are when writing the patch, the more likely you are to also commit
<ChadGPT>
not funny how that works
