What's your least favourite thing about your smartphone
  • Making me feel like a freak for asking for the freaking sudo.

    If you can't do any software change you want, you are not the owner of the device.

    Unacceptable
  • I think they meant the "finance guy" insulted the whole "race" of "developers", but otherwise they agree.

    [Serious] What should every young person do?
  • Take care of your body and keep it healthy. You have plenty of time to acquire habits helping that and slowly get rid of those damaging it - use that time before the issue is forced on you.

  • update: this is the clip: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AbSehcT19u0 Many thanks to @Krill.

    Good day everyone! A long time ago, while working as a full-time programmer, I saw a short funny clip that I could totally identify with and that brilliantly described what daily frustrations programmes face in a way that non-programmers could understand. Description below. Thing is, I was unable to find it since and it frustrates me to no end and is hampering my ability to describe programming work to other people. Though I no longer program for a living, so I should not care. Anyway.

    Video description (vague, from failing memory): A handyman reaches for his equipment but finds out it is not plugged in, so he reaches for the plug, only to find it broken. He proceeds to get the replacement / fix from the drawer but its handle breaks and stays in his hand. Bang, final title: the daily life of a programmer.

    Or something like that. Please help.
