Why write any specs anymore? The juniors don't read them, nor do the product managers. I'm just talking to myself at this point.
So, I waste time writing these nice detailed tickets, then when I go to review the pull request, the whole pile of horseshit is half done, and when I ask the product managers for resolutions, they don't have a clue either.
So just give me the whole fucking app, I'll do the whole damn thing myself. See you on Mars in 2025 while you and your pleb asses serve me fries and burgers.

The Linux desktop marketshare. Every year support gets better and better and soon I think it will be higher than the Mac desktop marketshare.

Github Copilot is a dumb little shitstain
For the past years I've been trying to periodically give a go to various copilots every time they made an announcement like "our next version will replace programmers, it will make singularity look like child toys"
Unfortunately and unpleasantly, in 2025 copilot is the dumbest shit ever and even junior coworkers can produce better code.
I can make it do only bovine code like class mapping and simpleton tasks.

Turned 31 three days ago.
My **dad** was convinced that I was turning 30 instead lmao.
I had to do the math for him, he was questioning the fabric of reality for a second. Like baba 2025 sub 1994 eq 31, ok.
so anyway age--;14 -
It's 2025.
We still have MSSQL with compatibility level set to 100 (matches the version from 2008).
We still have random downtime or issues with timeouts thanks to parameter sniffing.
Update? No that's expensive and doesn't provide more cashflow (ecommerce-ish).

Which is the most promising sector of Artificial Intelligence in future(2025) ?

Every time my news feed says "Giant meteor potentially can hit the Earth in 2025 blah blah blah....."
I think to myself - Please, end it all already. Wipe the planet away.1 -
Microspyoft decided to retire Atom IDE, what a bullshit company, if you check their asses you will find them stinky as garbage because they only use toilet paper, I started to stop using their shit, any basic solution they offer to you that you might think 'Oh, that's the solution to rely on for a lifetime ' no man hold your excitements cause they are going to fuck your brain later, same as they will do with Windows10, suddenly the bunch of lazy asses decided 'actually let's create windows11, and stop supporting windows10 by 2025' Go to fuck yourselves bitches, I stopped using all your shit.16

The year is 2025.
WSL2 still makes it a major, excruciating pain in the ass to expose a port over the network without having to look up the fucking command and think about the stupid cancerous networking model every time.
All I wanted to do was run some experiments with AI models on my gaming laptop using its GPU, and expose an API to my other laptop, having the latter as a client.
Guess I have to get fucking rid of Windows forever if I want a fucking usable computer.12 -
I started to work in a company as a Wordpress developer, where they made me technical tests even with React (with which I have no problem) and when they explain me about the stack they told me: “You must install XAMPP on MacOS” and deal with their Apache, .htaccess, etc. crap. Then I came across some spaghetti code. I didn't last a week. The developer joke came true.

Yearly angular rant.
I am doing since 2023
https://devrant.com/rants/10263715/...
and yep, angular is still shit in 2025
And still maintaining a high level, business critical, giant angular set of web portals, and some more projects with an angular UI that has to do with AI projects.
Of course not my choice, I'm forced to use this pile of steaming shit.
Year by year they keep releasing a new version and I always hope they get their shit togheter.
Every year is worse.
Instead of fixing this half-baked, ill-fated, broken clot of hacks rigged togheter, they keep adding cosmetic shit and useless no-one-asked ever features.
They added signals when there are not 1, but 2 mature, battle-tested frameworks (rxjs, ngrx) that already do it better.
They added @if @else etc etc. syntax after 10 years people were telling them that using that shit *ngIf and ng-container and templates was a shitty hot mess.
The whole change detection system is still the worst, clunky designed, cake of shit, requiring for real world applications to juggle with change detection services, change detection policies and control value accessors, which basically forces you to reinvent the most complicated wheel ever for what a ton of other frameworks already do out of the box without getting you bald from hair-pulling late-night hours.
Even AI can't fathom it. Give it to Copilot, GPT, Claude or whatever, and as soon as you get something more complicated than a form that sends a class to the backend or some mapping classes they will flip up, get all worked up and write completely utter shit that doesn't work.
I won't get into the projects details but I had to build some complicated UI and it has baffled me what fucking triple backflips I had to write to make some UI elements work smooth.
Jesus, why the fuck people keeps unleashing this pile of shit on me?
Why is it even used? There are a TON of healtier alternatives.
As of 2025, my christmas wish is still to have an 1v1 with angular devs in an octagon to shove my fist in their skull to check out what kind of twisted donkey shit is in there.
Seriously some improductive dumbass framework here, and if you like it, you're a shit programmer.16 -
So we're now in the year when Power Rangers SPD is canonically set...

The 2025 IT codeword is "flanagan".
This word can be provided to other IT support teams to let them know you are also a competent IT person.
Did I restart my router? Check DNS? NTP config? Traceroute? Yep all that. Just give the proper codeword and you can get sent straight to L3 support.1 -
Still struggling with the whole webpack project. We agreed on just doing style for now. (Which also need to be updated but that a whole other drama)
Fucking hate my life right now. Its 16:00 so time for beer and games. And holidays. Have a good holidays here everyone. I cant wait to come back to this shit in 2025.5 -
Just a question guys:
What do you think will be the status of global technology (in a broad perspective) by, let’s say around 2025?
Also, what type of technology would you think will have a major impact for the next 8 to 10 years?4 -
Async Rust doesn't have a great story for Iterator::map just yet. I wrote a mini-article about it:

Technology will be the end of human liberty.
“{9} The post-totalitarian system touches people at every step, but it does so with its ideological gloves on. This is why life in the system is so thoroughly permeated with hypocrisy and lies: government by bureaucracy is called popular government; the working class is enslaved in the name of the working class; … Because the regime is captive to its own lies, it must falsify everything. It falsifies the past. It falsifies the present, and it falsifies the future. It falsifies statistics. …
{10} Individuals need not believe all these mystifications, but they must behave as though they did, or they must at least tolerate them in silence, or get along well with those who work with them. For this reason, however, they must live within a lie. They need not accept the lie. It is enough for them to have accepted their life with it and in it. For by this very fact, individuals confirm the system, fulfill the system, make the system, are the system. . . . .”

!tech (just unhappy thoughts , read on your own risk)
Just wanted to share life update that it's still sucking and getting worse.
5 months ago i shared an update regarding my testicle swelling up which i thought was caused by something that I did wrong. Well I didn't got to know what was the reason, but I got to know something: that it was indeed a cancer of stage 3.
And Yes, It went as shitty as it could:
- They took away my testicle, left me one balled.
- The they asked for a sperm test, turns out my remaining ball is no longer producing any healthy sperms and I am childless for life
- then they took some blood test and analysed my ball. turns out that not only I had cancer but rather a spreading cancer which has spread to my lungs and stomach. I would need one of the strongest chemo out there.
- then the chemo started and it also gave its gifts : i , an already short built , fat ass ugly looking guy now had its head/beard bald as a rotten egg . (this could take months to years to recover)
- I also now have a scarred lungs that feel pain when doing anything more than a speed walk (which could be permanent)
- I also have a tingling sensation in ears (which if permanent would require me to wear a machine for life)
- All my nerves in hand are super dark and looks like burn marks ( would probably recover in weeks) and feel painful
---------
All this was bearable in the hopes that after chemo , atleast the cancer will die. well the cancer ain't dead and blood tests are still concerning. they have given another 1 month to get a retest in case the chemo meds are still working internally but after 1 month ,if things don't go right then further treatment will be needed.
And only those folks know what would be the treatment. are they going to give me more chemo gifts , or are they going to take away more of my parts, choose your own dark shit, yay!
My 2024 already started on am awesome shitty note : i fractured my left arm and got a plate inside of me. All i was hoping for 2025 was to get that plate removed and hit the gym again. But nope, god had even more awesome shit for me .
at the age where some of my friends are getting married, some are having kids and some are travelling the world, I am here sitting in my room, being worse than a paper weight, being a burden to the family and living a useless life.
Thanks life, awesome workthere with the luck on this one. now do the final steps and KILL ME6 -
What happened to SliTaz was so unfortunate. It's old (2008, latest release happened in 2025) and very lightweight.
It's also half-abandoned and running out of steam. 2022's donation campaign only raised 263 dollars.
It's community page (https://scn.slitaz.org) is defaced. It's Twitter (https://x.com/slitaz) is suspended.
This distro is really unique. It's not just Openbox plus Ubuntu. It's near and dear to my heart. If you can, please give it some love.
