  • TBH: Interesting question, post ruined by this “US-centric or not” BS. (Rest assured that as European, I don’t give a f about your insecurities with your education, at least not in unrelated posts. I’d bet most Europeans would not be able to point to most U.S. on the map, maybe Texas, California, Florida (wink) or NY but that’s about it. Even I know barely half of them, and that’s because I’m a terminally online look-up-everything-on-wikipedia nerd.)

    I was just curious about what would people say about ad regulations. I would have no problem with question being US-centric or any-other-country-centric.











  • ow worse. you’ve been waiting for years to be able to finally get rid of the legacy circle logic that keeps you pinned on old versions of everything. you got the confirmation from the PM.

    you explained to them carefully and patiently how much the spread over many shapes is slowing you down, and you also acknowledged that you can keep doing that, or you could invest a bit into architectural changes that would make it more bearable, and you got the response: i understand, it’s not worth it, let’s finally have balls and deprecate the circles once and forever.

    so with the feeling of wind in your back, you clean up your abstractions, simplify your logic, streamline your pipelines. and you finally get around to implementing some of the features that were just too hard to do safely with the obsolete pieces in place.

    and then… you see another fucking circle again and then you just die inside.
