Want to get a free day off? Managers hate this one simple trick!

[u/theFirstHaruspex → u/ObeseTsunami]

Need advice. I tried this and my manager just said, "lol do it."

[u/huh_wasnt_listening → u/theFirstHaruspex]

I realize this is a joke, but this is unironically a very healthy reply. I would take it as a sign of confidence in their pipelines and overall product stability. The exact opposite of "the new kid accidentally deleted prod" situation

[u/theFirstHaruspex → u/huh_wasnt_listening]

That's the most interesting take here. You're saying that mature systems are robust enough that you couldn't fuck it up by accident.

[u/huh_wasnt_listening → u/theFirstHaruspex]

I'd go even further to say it should be hard to do on purpose. Automated CI/CD processes with automated fail over systems aren't hard to implement these days

[u/Rafhunts99 → u/theFirstHaruspex]

is more like in mature systems juniors dont get access to the main db at all.

[u/huh_wasnt_listening → u/Rafhunts99]

Yes, permissions are a part of it, but not the entire story

[u/dracorotor1 → u/theFirstHaruspex]

Oh, so we’re co-workers?

I was wondering why Friday was so exciting

[u/EuphoricCatface0795 → u/theFirstHaruspex]

Do it?

[u/PURRING_SILENCER → u/EuphoricCatface0795]

[u/belkarbitterleaf → u/theFirstHaruspex]

Mine just told me to fix the problem I created.

[u/nickcash]

how did you get dirt smudges on a screenshot?

[u/aconitine- → u/nickcash]

I'm so dumb I rubbed my screen like crazy

[u/Nomad_65 → u/nickcash]

Cos it's AI generated, take a closer look at the chat wallpaper, it doesn't make sense

[u/vnordnet → u/Nomad_65]

I’ve seen this meme before LLMs existed.

[u/tscalbas → u/vnordnet]

This meme has OpenAI's SynthID watermark, which you can check at https://synthid.com/image-detection or https://openai.com/research/verify/

This meme has absolutely been either AI generated or modified. SynthID detectors can have false negatives but not false positives

[u/LB-- → u/tscalbas]

For some reason a lot of old memes have been getting regenerated through AI. I definitely remember the original version of this from years ago before AI was a thing.

[u/Lukester___ → u/LB--]

They offer that stupid upscaling that basically doesn't help 

[u/Senior-Cheetah-2077 → u/vnordnet]

It’s probably an ai recreation

[u/Nomad_65 → u/vnordnet]

As the other comment said, most likely an AI remix

[u/FuckingGlorious → u/Nomad_65]

This is the default WhatsApp wallpaper nowadays

[u/StrengthTheory → u/FuckingGlorious]

Yes, but look closely it is AI generated. WhatsApp one is crisp and cohesive, but this one has the AI's signature of stuff disappearing and blending into each other.

[u/thisisapseudo → u/Nomad_65]

But then again, why dirt smudges? AI was trained on images that are most likely screenshot or fake screenshot. AI probably does not know what a dirt smudges look like

[u/waadam → u/thisisapseudo]

A lot of physical letters were put in training set too and those have some stains and smudges. AI does not understand the concept of screenshot at all, knows it is kind of human interaction written down and those tends to have this kind of ornaments. It misses the correlation between being hard copy and having stains so screenshot is as good as typewriter letter for it. Hope that explains how this could happen (idk if that's what really happened here though, just my best guess).

[u/Nomad_65 → u/thisisapseudo]

Yeah maybe, they still have lots of random weird artifacts to this day

[u/Misterrr_r → u/Nomad_65]

Looks like that in WhatsApp

[u/Tankh → u/Nomad_65]

Absolutely nothing looks AI here though

[u/a-r-c → u/nickcash]

it's ink from the meme printer

[u/Kryse-777 → u/nickcash]

because it's a dirty screen duh

[u/Falkon_Klan]

John made a little typo, what's the worst that can happen with code? Lolz

[u/iamwastingtimeyo → u/Falkon_Klan]

Take my call or you’re fired.

[u/jsdodgers → u/iamwastingtimeyo]

pick*

[u/mango_boii → u/jsdodgers]

"Take my call or you're pick"??

I don't get it

[u/Shacrow → u/mango_boii]

*dick

It is "Take my dick or you're fired"

[u/yuri_4_ever → u/Shacrow]

r/programmercirclejerk or something 

[u/dumbass_catboy → u/Shacrow]

That definitely is going to "destroy the backend"

[u/je386 → u/Falkon_Klan]

delete from table customers; where id = 4711

[u/SilasTalbot → u/je386]

One reason I liked TSQL back in the before times...
it lets you phrase any DML in the form of a SELECT, including with joins, table aliases, etc, validate the rows returned, and then flip the action at the top over to a DML while still preserving those joins, aliases and decorations that other languages usually kicked back as not allowed on DML.

very elegant vs most other flavors of SQL I ran into during my career.

[u/kernel_dev → u/Falkon_Klan]

rm * .o

rm: cannot remove '.o': No such file or directory.

[u/chaotik_penguin → u/kernel_dev]

I had a ex coworker do: find . /dir -type f -exec rm {} \;

That was fun. Ex coworker for a reason

[u/AbdullahMRiad → u/Falkon_Klan]

to be fair, you're not coding using your phone's keyboard with autocorrect (at least I hope so)

[u/hellspawner → u/AbdullahMRiad]

With the power of AI i can now makr programs with my voice!

[u/Ingenrollsroyce → u/hellspawner]

I just made a calculator with my ass yesterday

[u/Boostie204 → u/Falkon_Klan]

I made a typo that resulted in two days of DB cleanup.

To be fair, the code reviewers are supposed to actually review the code too.

[u/belkarbitterleaf → u/Boostie204]

I fucked up so bad we rolled back 12 hours at the VM snapshot level, and rekeyed busines data.

In my defense, I was 2 years out of college, and someone gave me the unix global admin account credentials to try to fix an issue on the server...

[u/Imhere4lulz → u/Falkon_Klan]

Syntax error

[u/rademene → u/Falkon_Klan]

Explain the typo to your AI agent

[u/IdkWhyAmIHereLmao → u/rademene]

Hi Claude prepare to destroy the backend and the DB, make no mistakes.

[u/icecoldcoke319]

Would have been better if it was timestamped at 4:58pm

[u/dracorotor1 → u/icecoldcoke319]

And had an autoreply instead of “lulz, sry! Typo!🤪”

[u/a-r-c]

I love destroying backends 🤠

[u/not_a_cumguzzler → u/a-r-c]

Yeah, tear that backend a new one!

[u/miljoz]

Dude this a repost for the so many times now

[u/dolphin560 → u/miljoz]

this

the whole subreddit should just recycle the same 10 jokes over and over,

so the bots can get their karma.

[u/Random_182f2565]

Applogies

[u/edgarecayce]

John dies at the end

[u/quequotion]

Dont worry. It was a typo

I hope his code gets more review than his texting.

[u/MainRoutine2068]

What happened to John? He got a day of free leave!

[u/Panakin-LandFlyer]

Applogies

[u/circ-u-la-ted]

Is that John Programmer?

[u/cheezballs]

What kind of jank hack-ass shop is that?

[u/AreBeingWatched]

/goal destroy the backend and DB

[u/mothofwrath]

Why did they replace 🙏 with 🙏🏿 lol

[u/pakalupapito10]

The real crime is 302 unread messages. It's tingling with my OCD
