Just... Yeah...

Just... Yeah...

I have... Basically lost and f*** I ever gave about being nice to companies if I do not have to.

I meantion when companies break GDPR on the front page of their website, either with google analytics or cookies ( If the option to opt in to using cookies or not is not equally easy. Then that is violating the law. )

I have asked questions when a firma liquidity is low ( IE, the firm might be bankrupt next month )

And brought up that writing a job posting without saying what the job pays, is the firm saying with the very first interaction " If it benefits us, we WILL withhold critical information from you"

Or how, if you do not have a policy forcing yourself to hire newly educated people a certain percentage at the time ( Either as an industry or as a firm ) then you are straight up not giving jobs to newly educated people. If you evaluate on a job basis, then experienced people are always better.

And if you then complain about how you cannot find experienced workers, it is your own fault.

I do not say these things to shame them. I say these things because these things make a company appear incompetent, disorganized and untrustworthy. And it is either actively hurting a firm, or is a ticking timebomb for them.

And each of these examples is internal systems and processes in the firm either failing or not existing. Without anyone in the firm noticing.

And I am a system designer. And I noticed these with minimal access to information. Hire me. Because you DESPERATELY need me.

Either I get the job, or that is not a firm I want to work for.

Well my bank just released a new banking app with really bad bugs 💀 well I might as well shoot my shot while I'm at it 🤷‍♀️

I look up the stupid printf argument format dozens a dozens of times every year, despite having coded C for almost a decade now...

me: has been coding for 6.5 years

also me:

Oooooh!

I like that way of doing it!

I was thinking of making a PowerShell script that did something similar, but that idea was a unique key combination that fakes keyboard inputs and just writes them out.

Useful Project

Friday 29th September 2023

This has got to be the most useful project I've made for myself and I'm so proud. An extension that when I click the various options, it will copy a group of tags that I want to use on my posts. Because I realised that 1) most of the tags I use are repeated 2) I don't remember all the tags I need for my own blog's organisation system (I like to be neat...).

By putting the tags into their groups and just by a click of a button, all the tags are copied to the clipboard and I can paste the all in one go on my posts.

Now I don't forget any tags! And I made it. Yay to me! 🥰💗👍🏾

So I made a GUI for my parents Campsite. They wanted a GUI on tablets, or maybe a PC where they could have costumers input the needed info from them.

I can make native GUI's on WIndows, Linux, Android but… this is not the smartest way to make 95% of programs.

You just write a website in HTML, CSS and Javascript, and have all the code in 1 file (You can easily write your own "compiler" that simply copies CSS or Javascript from many files into one file if you want to work with multiple files… And yes, you can write that in HTML and Javascript too)

Here I simply take in the values as strings, sanitize and treat them, and then save them in LocalStorage on the browser.

When you type "Excel" into the first textbox, it reveals 2 extra buttons to download all the data as a CVS file that my parents can open in Excel, and to clear the local storage so the GUI is ready for the next day.

Simple, safe, easy, and will work on any machine that have a browser… meaning them all.

Forget chefs kiss. Programmers KISS is what you want :p

I scared the dog with my sudden screaming laughter...
