    Another day having to watch something on ITVX. Another day being reminded whomever is in charge of ITVX is one of the most useless individuals on the planet earth because this thing is still fucking awful.

    It boggles my mind, how staying within the same tax bracket, and changing jobs, that the government somehow fucks up the math so I owe an extra grand at the end of the year. Like, WHY DIDNT YOU JUST KEEP TAXING ME THE SAME RATE M8.

    My early teens were spent largely online, and it allowed me to connect with people from all over the world. I would be a lesser person if I was restricted to only knowing the people geographically close to me. This just increases the impact of the birth postcode lottery. And will continue this country’s decline backwards instilling more insular and xenophobic attitudes. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/social-media-to-be-banned-for-under-16s-in-landmark-government-move-to-givekids-their-chi...

    I just fell for watching a fake stream of the Blue Origin launch today, and it cut to an AI-mouthed Jeff Bezos doing a crypto scam. It wasn&amp;#39;t until the presentation started over, and the channel got suspended, that I realised it was fake. Because the state of these tech bro&amp;#39;s. It&amp;#39;s entirely feasible they would pause their own rocket launch to advertise a crypto pump and dump xD

    Database migrations as code instead of just DDL is a foot gun in the stupidest place to foot gun. Also fuck certain frameworks that shove magic calls and traits everywhere, but zero fucking doc blocks explaining intent or guidelines. I’m sure you’re arbitrary code comment rules have not contributed the undiscoverable mess your codebase is.

    So Amazon doesnt approve reviews to do with items arriving damaged, because it&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;not something every customer will experience&amp;quot;. So reviews literally mean nothing on Amazon (which sure I kinda already knew). Because I would not buy something if half the reviews talked about the seller packaging it like shit.

    Any tool recommendations for creating UML diagrams/adjacent. For systems/processes? Sequence, flow, state machine, use case etc. Whenever I search it’s either vendor locked subscription SaaS or some basic but usable tool that costs $800 for a license, Im happy to pay non-enterprise level amount for a good tool. (I know there’s a having cake and eating it too argument here) But wondered what options am I missing? #uml #lazyweb #designtools #diagramming #softwaredesign
