Is this really the life you wanted?

Did you, as a kid, say to yourself "I want to be a total fucking loser when I grow up!"? Probably not, but yet here you are, cranking out strings of symbols to tell a computer what to do. How sad.

no but how is my life that bad, seriously ?

i do have some good colleagues and they are fairly down to earth and i am not some kind of superficial sycophant always trying to win everybody over.

and i do something reasonably useful for ``society at large'' by writing codes.

and i can cultivate my knowledge of culture by watching movies, discovering music, learning history of the internet and computing industry, reading books with all kinds of crazy stories and creative writing in them. the world is full of events and projects, throughout history and finding out about them is a worthwhile thing to do.

think of all the work that goes into software, well it is quite a team effort and everybody puts in some effort defucking some particular little thing, so that the whole thing can do many useful things, and without too many hiccups.
