The story of a programmer trying to get a printer to work again:

First 8 months -> update drivers, code custom scripts, and clean out printer like a maniac - still not working

Last night -> give up and slam the printer in frustration, a cashew rolls out - printer now works

🤦🏾‍♂️

Hey @apple On the iPhone Duo, while open horizontally, and using the split keyboard, the feature to long press the space bar to move the cursor does not work intermittently.
Please fix this! Product issue submitted already.

I once got a comment on TikTok: “wow, a black programmer guy, that’s new 😁👍”

Here’s how I responded: https://t.co/nXRmX1i6Jd

@Audi_Guy Thanks man!

My iPhone Duo availability alert script is still working well. I get notifications for one or two a day from local stores. They sell out in minutes before the next check interval 15 minutes later.

If looking for an iPhone Duo and live near a store start checking at 8am.

@thecyberseckyle @BestBuy Lied to me too…. I’m so glad I didn’t trust them and decided to walk-in to an Apple Store today and got one. Was busy but Apple did a great job on in-person this year.

Otherwise I would be waiting until November or later. I used to work at BB so gave them a shot.

Since we are all using AI to code now, does PHP still suck?

That moment when I’m coding to fix a bug and the correct solution shows itself while I’m knee deep into coding a hack

When you finally win, it's going to be more interesting to look back at the losses it took to get there, rather than the wins.

You ever fix a bug, and then just sit there and smile? 😩🤔😁

Cheated on grandma’s word puzzle game using A.I. and took credit for solving the last word she was stuck on for weeks. The bar for grandsons has been raised.

opinion. What do you think?

I’ve been getting pressured to "watch the news" more by some elders, but I feel like social media is a sufficient method for getting news. The same news outlets they watch on TV have social media presences. Plus I feel like I can crowd source the news easier and form my own
