I'm on a project where we original had three devs, but two of them did exactly what is depicted in this image, so now there's only me. There's a proper god damn mountain of tech debt that keeps growing. At this point it'd take me probably a solid couple of months to sort it out, but of course the customer doesn't want to pay for anything, because "what's the problem, it's still running". All I can really do is glance at it every now and then, like that gif with richard ayoade and the fire from IT crowd. It's a pretty big and widely used system too, so it's gonna be a real biblical clusterfuck when it finally shits the bed.

Alacritty because I like how it handles bitmap fonts and I need bitmap fonts in my life.

They would be funny as fuck if they weren't real and doing harm to people. I understand where you're coming from though.

Yep. The red-scare brainworms are deeply rooted here, every boy has to go to the military to prepare for the inevitable day the russians come. It hasn't really been taken very seriously for as long as I've lived, at least. Until now, I guess. A funny little cultural rite of passage meme where 18-year-olds get to fuck around with their bros in the woods for half a year. But tbh I never went myself, so I don't really know what you actually learn there.

"40 soldiers and an old tractor" is what I assume is the portion of the conscripts who are actually ready and willing to fight, and didn't just go there because they were expected to.

Yeah I'm getting serious tiny poodle vibes. Going "let me at em bro I swear to god bro I'll fuck em up bro you're lucky i'm on this leash aaaabark bark bark barkbarkabrkbark" at a pack of swole bears or something. We have like 40 soliders and maybe an old tractor somewhere. It's a god damn suicide cult.
