As a civilization, could we stop putting sticky rubber coatings on tech, that melt after few years?
It's too fucking easy for Visual Studio to wipe all my custom syntax highlighting options, and all the backups are a filthy lie. Foomin.
It should be a criminal offence, prosecuted to the full extent of the law, to have your computer unmuted and pinging away in an open-plan office.
For all the talk of UX, the Internet is truly becoming unbearable to use.
Imagine if end-to-end encryption was invented solely for bypassing app gateway WAFs.
Having been a part of one of these before... Women in Tech panels need to be less excruciatingly dry to not risk doing us a massive disservice.

Why do these bastard ticket machines default to tickets that would, were I to buy one and board the train with it, result in me being fined for paying an inappropriate fare?
Make DACPACs make sense! Give us a pre-deployment script that runs pre-pre-deployment script and before the deployment plan that is calculated on a outdated state. And stop people committing atrocities to bypass the absence of this feature. 👇 Thanks @drewsk.bsky.social
