After all, he said age of privacy is over (or something similar).

As a reader, that's definitely why I do condemn overly negative books and other media. Even after reading all horror books available in the library as a teenager. Life's complicated enough by itself.

Sorry, unable to find it now either and my memory fails me. There's a chronically mislabeled place near where I live, but I don't want to doxx myself. So, please have this vaguely related fun story instead: https://www.thesun.ie/news/14465782/ghost-aldi-supermarket-tourists-lorry

They are already roughly half way back.

They never fix bugs in maps. Some places IRL even got renamed, because it was easier than fixing the name in google maps.

political winds now being essentially hostile to EV manufacturers.

Wonder what musk's got to say about that. Or are the winds hostile against tesla's competition only?

Great, a stock sale.

Ha, I'm the other way. I recovered my joy in a coding as a hobby once I stopped doing it at work. And yes, it was Java at work, and no, not Java as a hobby.

 

update: this is the clip: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AbSehcT19u0 Many thanks to @Krill.

Good day everyone! A long time ago, while working as a full-time programmer, I saw a short funny clip that I could totally identify with and that brilliantly described what daily frustrations programmes face in a way that non-programmers could understand. Description below. Thing is, I was unable to find it since and it frustrates me to no end and is hampering my ability to describe programming work to other people. Though I no longer program for a living, so I should not care. Anyway.

Video description (vague, from failing memory): A handyman reaches for his equipment but finds out it is not plugged in, so he reaches for the plug, only to find it broken. He proceeds to get the replacement / fix from the drawer but its handle breaks and stays in his hand. Bang, final title: the daily life of a programmer.

Or something like that. Please help.
