This seems dangerous for both the codebase and the cars around them.

Crashing and then crashing

[–] ArseAssassin@sopuli.xyz 21 points 2 months ago

How to crash your software and hardware at once.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

In case of crash git revert or git reset --hard idbeforecrash

When the cost of living is so egregiously high that not only do you need two jobs, but you have to do them at the same time

[–] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

A software engineer needs two jobs. Which means most people need at least 4. Or 3 if they live under a bridge.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 7 points 2 months ago (3 children)

A software engineer does not need two jobs. That's ridiculous.

[–] Sauerkraut@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It sounds ridiculous, yes, but there are US software engineers who basically work for minimum wage full time doing freelance work because that is all they can find

Half-assing two jobs at once

[–] LGTM@discuss.tchncs.de 70 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Do NOT let me do this, I will actually be rage-merging on the road. "LFGTM 😡" bypass branch protection rules

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 30 points 2 months ago

force push to master

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 57 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yo Dawg, I heard you like merging. ..

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ok, obviously merging while you merge is super dangerous. Almost as dangerous as using light mode on your phone. The rider should've known he was a sociopath just from that.

[–] BJ_and_the_bear@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hey, I prefer light mode. There are dozens of us!

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nothing in life really prepares you for meeting such an unfathomable being...

[–] buttnugget@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It’s mind blowing but there are people who really do prefer it! Don’t forget to leave an optional light mode for them!

It's worth mentioning that this guy and the "Uber driver" works in the same company

[–] cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone 20 points 2 months ago

probably the only time they can actually successfully merge

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 19 points 2 months ago (2 children)

What's SF?

[–] Nomad@infosec.pub 36 points 2 months ago (3 children)

San Francisco, bay area is notorious for technology and tech nerds

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 13 points 2 months ago

Thanks!

I’m not sure if that is impressive or terrifying.

[–] zeograd@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

¿Por qué no los dos?

[–] jadelord@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 months ago

Somebody tell that dude that having a "bus factor" doesn't mean you should actively seek getting run over by a bus!

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Science fiction or San Francisco?

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

San Fierro

This is the sort of engineer getting wholly replaced by Copilot

[–] outerspace@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This is a concept known as CAC (configuration as code) - the driver made changes to the route, making the change visible, reversible, safe, auditable and testable. It's also great for the PRs merged per day metric!
