Few things enjoy such unquestionable inevitability. How strange it is to present a design &#34;language&#34; as objectively better and thoughtfully considered, only to discard it in a few years.<br/><br/>Nothing is iconic these days because iconic things must endure to gain that status, but nothing can be allowed to endure for so long. Freshness becomes the only value. The ever molting skin must reveal a tender surface.<br/><br/>Whatever it is, it is far from design. 2026-09-30T12:07:12Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsv33xjnt5s04y75yhv8q0g9utjjnhh65qd9ergh9m6w860wat2d9czyza86e2rwj26flgp4qp03cnljlksr0cppn27zhtvjpt9r408znkaw3lv3uz In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9jjuz2rnlw5dz07zfzst08nsjmgyvszv27lcdpljdqdjp0052ptqrszjvy'>nevent1q…zjvy</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Comment: hell yeah on all points.

I&#39;m heading towards 20 years into my career in software, and I&#39;m not sure I can stay where I am anymore. I just look at all of the stuff my company is making and I don&#39;t see myself taking part in it. Even for the things I could work on, because I&#39;m remote, I&#39;m not an option, not to mention the full-on AI hypnosis. I believe a lot of people are just going with the flow and don&#39;t feel like they can change anything. The social pulse is nearly flatline. The products aren&#39;t that interesting, the design isn&#39;t great, the ux is increasingly hostile, and the software doesn&#39;t inspire confidence, especially as more of it is LLM slop. It&#39;s a really depressing blend.<br/><br/>I&#39;m more well off than a lot of people, but probably couldn&#39;t just retire and there is still a lot more I want to do. Is it software? I think I&#39;ve got a decent resume, but I still don&#39;t perceive that I have the mobility I would want to just quit. And where would I go, anyway? Where would be worth upending my whole life? I&#39;ve got all of this pent up energy and I need to put it to use or I&#39;ll lose my mind. 2026-08-26T11:59:27Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9tyr4cccwwntpy6ktcgj9wt2gvxaaz3edle5l4a548mvrhx89qeczyza86e2rwj26flgp4qp03cnljlksr0cppn27zhtvjpt9r408znkaw97jecs I have always said that SDL is one of the greatest C APIs of all time, and one of the best APIs ever made, period.

It’s like going out of your way to put “Made with the help of Microsoft 365” in the header of your documents.

So freak the fuck out and stop being nice to people who fuck up your shit over and over again.

It seems to get me down a lot though T_T.<br/><br/>&gt; none of them stood up for me. Even when I&#39;d stood up for them in the past.<br/><br/>If this happened to me, I&#39;d have a personal, real-time conversation with folks, do the NVC thing, and ask for that which you need without passing judgement or diagnosing them. If you still care to persist in that need, anyway.<br/><br/>I was just talking with my partner about why &#39;community&#39; is so hard these days, why it has maybe always been hard, we talk about it nearly every day. It seems so complex that I find it hard to grasp any one concrete thing to exercise to make things better for people. It feels like it always comes back around to caring about people on an individual level, and being okay with that level of intimacy, attention, and commitment/obligation, or even just putting in the effort to try to like someone.<br/><br/>I&#39;m afraid that some people just don&#39;t have that skill, and/or something else altogether merely loosely binds them, and it makes me sad. <br/><br/>I dunno... 2026-01-03T04:08:55Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsf6m9afunu7lj2344ehndded44f8ar26uzp8qeez9tp9n3g3yf56qzyza86e2rwj26flgp4qp03cnljlksr0cppn27zhtvjpt9r408znkawpjwvdm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgnnssd3jka6mrxwtpgxppa2tld494py7egj626yhaqr0nzgf8u2qkllmpf'>nevent1q…lmpf</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hi I saw this post and it resonated with me based on some prior experiences at work. I hope I can offer some comfort below by sharing my own.<br/><br/>Ask yourself, what do you need? What would make you happy? What would fix all of this? If you can make a list, then you can ask people directly for the things that you need, 1-1, face to face if possible, and see what they say. This has been immensely helpful to me.<br/><br/><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_Communication#Components">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_Communication#Components</a><br/><br/>Apart from that, if you just need the world to see what you have seen, and you don&#39;t really trust that you can solve this with interpersonal relationships, may I humbly suggest, and I&#39;m not joking at all when I say this, a 90-minute YouTube video to get it all out of your head. Maybe you don&#39;t even post it.<br/><br/>&gt; It just feels like The Work is too important and I don&#39;t matter in the grand scheme of things, the wheels of the machine must keep spinning. But if I don&#39;t matter, does anyone else?<br/><br/>I think about this constantly. I don&#39;t believe in impersonal work. I think it&#39;s a terrible, awful lie that serves as an excuse to dismiss those from whom we extract value and nothing more. You should matter. That said, I&#39;ve never been a part of a community that truly took care of me. It has only ever been individuals. Seek out and strengthen those alliances. See above.<br/><br/>All the best this year and thank you for your care and hard work. 2026-01-03T03:32:49Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2w45yt933hlg09s57ep57uav86wfxm86u8czaz83h9lljjl96wkgzyza86e2rwj26flgp4qp03cnljlksr0cppn27zhtvjpt9r408znkaw0vam0f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9gcrsk7uuuq7xdnrlkzlxezte3zmma73462lfm29rmyzzzd56trswpeamz'>nevent1q…eamz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>this is awesome!!!!! 2025-12-28T17:03:02Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszaz5ahsj7gwlulpyfej2rktjmduymnc2u50rs02qyqc9ywalryfqzyza86e2rwj26flgp4qp03cnljlksr0cppn27zhtvjpt9r408znkawupeteg <a href="https://stopthemingmy.app/">https://stopthemingmy.app/</a><br/><br/>Fuck you.
