  • I learned about this http response code too late. About 4 years ago I was working at a startup and I was the “lead engineer” (aka only engineer) on a project where I had to design and implement an entire REST API. I really wish I would have put this in somewhere, since we weren’t doing code review (because it was literally only me).






  • I’m a software engineer, I have taken classes on docker, I host my own web pages, etc. and I STILL can’t get it my own instance of Lemmy running. The instructions are unclear. They have bugs in their docker-compose.yml file. It’s really bad. I have been working on it after work each day for the past 4 days. So far I got the UI working, but i can’t log in or create an account. And I had to disable logging to get it running because I was getting an error with how the logger was defined in the yml file.

    And because I was frustrated, even though I really, really didn’t want to, I tried using their ansible setup. It still didn’t work, and it completely fucked my server. It took me a few hours to undo all the shit it did.

    It’s not in a good state right now. Hopefully they fix it soon.

















  • I still remember the last game I pre-ordered. Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Game straight up didn’t work for like 6 months. And they promised all this free shit to us who bought it day one, but those of us who got it digitally didn’t qualify, so we didn’t get it. Even though I asked a Microsoft store rep if we qualified and they said yes. They later said no.

    Never again for me.
