  • I’m also a software engineer and I can’t stand most other people in this field. I got into this field because I love computers and was tweaking garry’s mod scripts when I was 12. I read scifi books and enjoy reading about the lore of the tech industry.

    I would estimate that AT LEAST 75% of people in this industry are ladder climbing yuppies who got into it for the money. The gym rat, tesla-driving podcaster types who have invented their own language about syncing up, achieving alignment, creating action items and eating dog food. And for some reason they’re all into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Lex Fridman/Joe Rogan

    I do not socialize with my coworkers because they are the most obnoxious fucking money-obsessed pieces of shit I’ve ever met




  • The car runs fine, I don’t have any major complaints other than the stupid ass touch screen controls for stuff like air conditioning, but it seems hard to find any car that has real controls anymore.

    I also moved to a city (from the suburbs) and work remotely so I don’t drive as much as I used to

    I don’t know what current car interest rates are. I can tell you that the federal reserve has not changed interest rates in a meaningful way since then
