Oh my God, Becky.
Look at this pull request.
I mean, this commit, it's just so small.
I can't believe it's just so concise,
like it's well thought out.
It's just so... good.

I like small DIFFS, and I cannot lie.
You other hackers can deny,
But when a patch comes in with an itty-bitty count,
and that bug fix in your face
You hit MERGE.

Because I'm that kind of pretentious d-bag.

Jira jira jira, you run like you're made of clay.
Jira jira jira, refresh; come back another day.

Me shortly before a conference: Why oh why the fuck did I agree to speak at this thing?
Me as I'm about to leave the same conference: I LOVE YOU GUYS, I'M GONNA MISS YOU SO MUCH, PLEASE LET ME COME SPEAK AGAIN!

Waiting for hotel shuttle at airpory on the way to a tech conference.
See a stereotypical looking nerd with a book who's partial title reads: Git...
Me: 😁
They shift and I can see it reads: "Gittar"
Me: 🤦‍♀️

Life is too short for Jira.

Leveling in retail wow has gotten stupid easy. 120 levels in less time than it took me to get 20 in classic. On the plus side, I took smexy in my Mechagnome heritage armor.

Why don't I use bath bombs more often?

The Lie: "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life."

Reality: "Do what you love, and you will eventually hate it."

Wife recently got a free "Nest Mini" (Echo dot type device in the Google ecosystem). It really is just.... the worst. In grand unpolished. just shy of actually being a minimum viable project google fashion, it's got an 80% chance of responding to any query with "please login via the home app" or "please setup that service" even if the prior, identical query worked.

Glad we didn't give them money.

When will this naked greed bullshit end? There is no excuse for a fucking ebook to cost more than the paperback. None. Fuck you guys.

Yeah, Siri. I feel ya, boo.

Ah look, the EU working on solving a problem that doesn't really, properly exist.

Yes, chargers were a fucking mess 15 years ago, but that's just not true today. There are exactly 3 connectors that cover 90% of phones today: USB-C, µUSB, and Lightning. The industry DID keep its promise (within reason).
