I finally subscribe to Netflix and am proud of myself for finally watching shows legally.

I search for Arrested Development.

Oh, guess what, it's not available in my country (Lebanon). Gotta set up a vpn now but all I wanted was a nice funny show. I want my $12 back.

for the past 3 days here in Beirut, Lebanon

WTF Woke up this morning and found my email used to register to a website called fiverr.com!!

What is even worse is that at the end of the email where they have that section of: this email was sent to ..., the name is random letters

Even more ironic that website does not allow access from Lebanon ....

I think it is time to change my email, been getting a lot of spam into my inbox lately, though Gmail has a good spam filter :\

Fuck it, i live in lebanon.

In the news today, a city in Lebanon fell victim to some sort of explosion, which was captured by hundreds of civilians via cell phone recording.

In other news today, millions of people learned Lebanon is a real place.

Basically,

- No such thing as specialty, you are either a full stack dev who develops all aspects of a project and deploys it or your a jobless dev. Its asking too much of companies to pay more than one dev for one project regardless of scale. Paying minimum wage for a single dev is more than enough!

- You develop for a company, if by any chance you find someone willing to hire freelancers, your insane if you ask for more than 500 USD on a full fledged e commerce system coz a couple of wordpress companies do it for less !

Basically, dont be a dev in Lebanon.

!dev
Out of curiosity, what do you guys hear / know about a country called Lebanon ?

Any Lebanese devs in here?

Any ranters in beirut, lebanon who would like to meet up for a coffee and some code?

More currency devaluation, Soon to be members of the Venezuela/Lebanon club 🤑

Am really worried about this major ( Computer science major ) in my country ( Lebanon ).

We have a very good potentials and very low salaries compared to it. And in case we apply abroad there is always an indian who have the same experience at least and most of them request a very low salary.

Trust me am really worried.
