    is everyone here a complete beginner? how do so many people relate to this? as soon as you need to do anything halfway interesting the thing just confidently spews nonsense.

      There’s always been a tendency of folks reading programmer humor to be beginners rather than seasoned devs. I think, there’s just more of those in general, as there’s lots of fields where entry-level coding skills are good enough…

        What do you think the point of this post is, then? Comedic hyperbole only works if there is still some truth to it

      Nope. 10 years experience at dicking around and collecting a paycheck. ChatGPT helps me dick around better.

      Sometimes the more nonsensical it looks the less likely someone will bother taking their time to actually code review it.

      My goal is keeping a job. Not getting work done. Then I just get more work to do.

      Edit: I don’t know why I expected people on this sub to actually be able to tell what a joke was.

        The trick with humour is it has to not be as dry as my mother’s cunt.

        At least give us a “/s” so there’s no doubt bro.

          You’re probably right. I should assume the autism level is above average here… My bad. But your mom’s cunt is pretty wet when she rubs it on my face. Not your best analogy.

          Edit: no /s to be clear. Your mom’s cunt is dripping. But it’s good that you don’t know that.

        I just some a lot of Lemmy are neurodivergent and do in fact require /s.

        Which is actually halfway true, the other half being a more international crowd that aren’t on the same page as whatever perspective you’ve got. That said, I got the joke and second you on spending more time with my feet on my desk while the boss pays me for my 20 minutes of work.

          Thanks. I was trying to match some dry humor with the frustrations the relationship with wage labor frustrations and my usual balance of alcohol. I’m glad it hit for someone.

          I actually appreciate all the downvotes and comments. I’ll take the “make people think”. Which is why I think my comment got so many replies. Enjoyable either way.
