Quite the opposite. My higher ups enjoy their manual admin work as it’s the only peaceful part of their day. They do joke about making me do it, but when I insist they allow me to so I can improve and automate it they are quite quick to silently go back to their office XD

your mother!

please make the winning stop already🤢

oh shidd😲

well, it runs and accounts for every erroneous potential I can think of…but I see there is clearly much more work to be done. Thank you for the new set of challenges

we are very close to a perfect mario speedrun, aren’t we? could be any day now

I’ve always wanted to contrib to the floss world, but I don’t understand how one gets skilled enough to push good code…

Never

Well put. This was exactly the answer I was needing to get going after a few ideas I have for a blog-like thing.

I know there’s already too much content on the Web, but it’s still something I’d like to try and hopefully begin failing better at. Gracias!

I did apply to jobs for a good while, but I’m overly invested with my current employer since I’ve already been here for 10+ years. Not to mention AI has wreaked serious havoc on the hiring sector of things

I’m somewhat confused by your comment. I automated my tasks because I got tired of typos and having to remember the processes of things. if I just fully script the process, I don’t have to remember or do anything XD

Is this your way of saying you work more or less than 40? lol

I already know how to code, but sysadmin stuff does sound fun, thx

ahh, I should get back into learning german/japanese. Thank you for this reminder

what is professional development?

no use crying over spilled honeypot OP—small victories hide everywhere; just gotta know where and when to find em👍

I agree with almost all of this, but I think factoring in the imminent catastrophes we know are coming (and actively doing nothing about) will make a sizeable balance of this ‘better off vast majority’ of today.

The heaps of plastic tell a different story and define ‘getting better’ in a daunting light for those just now being born
