  • Edit: should mention my world is basically cowboys vs indians IN SPACE, and everything is an excuse to have cowboys and indians IN SPACE. Theres culture laws, and the world is a stage play almost. The public schools even teach accents from millenia ago.


    The government forms another cultural committee, which in turn creates an new government department. They stage presents at train stations, with significant amounts paid to the railroads. At the end, parents are still in charge of getting them under the christmas tree.

    Most people involved are honest, but they fail the audit, and a hundred tons of gold is missing, even though they never needed gold for the project. An inveatigation is opened, turns out it was shipped off world. No one was arrested, but one railroad owner ends up shot by a trigger happy deputy.



  • I’m a front-end dev. I play with CSS until it’s close enough to the design I can get someone to sign off on it. I write tests too, and that doesn’t take much. My tech lead is literally afraid of switch statements. I’ve had coworkers not understand for loops and reject MRs. I still prefer using if statements instead of X ? Y : Z.

    I’m pretty dumb, and I make 120k USD writing code.

    Sure it’s possible to be too dumb, but that’s Forrest Gump levels of dumb.
