I'm a programmer with the trifecta of coding ineptitude 😅 🤣

I've been a local PHP community/meetup organizer for about 10 years, and I also run Discord/Telegram groups on the same topic. I was thinking, why not start a PHP Tumblr community as well? If you want to join, follow https://www.tumblr.com/communities/phpeanuts

its not net zero information if u clearly fuckin know a new thing at the end!! net zero information meme is when the original post was untrue and so the only fact you've learned is 'it is not true that [untrue thing]', which is a useless thing to know (especially if you already knew the true thing)

if posts go back and forth and at the end u have a good idea what's going on, better than what you'd know from any post individually, that's not a time for 'net zero info'. u learned! we all learned! yippee

My coworkers are fucking idiots and I am barely holding it together. We are meant to work under the same code (mine) so I was all “Oh you can take my branch as base for yours, I already have the GET request done so you can go ahead and add the POST call on it”

Why did this fucking dumbass decided to edit the existing GET call instead of the more logical choice of making a second function for the POST?!?! Do you know the absolute pain in the ass it will be to merge everything now?? HAS HE NEVER WORKED ON CODE WITH A TEAM??? OR IS HE JUST STUPID???

Remember, girls have been programming and writing algorithms way before it was cool!

Python is objectively the worst programming language because sometimes you have to type something like

I got something... done? (mostly)

This is a mini visual novel I made for myself to see how I feel about the medium. Lo and behold, I love it. Might even transition from novel writing to visual novels. It's been good for my drawing skills. I was startled by how strongly my interest rejuvenated when I started messing with the UI.

Here's the link for those curious among you.

It's all done except for sound and music. You already know I'm a writer and I'm a nerd, so I like programming, drawing is fun to some extent too, but I have never in my life dabled in audio. The biggest challenge will be not taking this too seriously.

Still, it works even without audio, so have fun. Why not try to spot bugs to make me feel silly and find the 3 endings.

Anyway, here are some screenshots:

"RPG Maker lets you create games without knowing how to program!" is both technically a true statement and a trap.
