On the flip side I appreciate all the free expensive alcohol I get.

    hey fellow computer toucher, don’t feel pressured to get drunk to be a team player

    What cool things have you done at the computer touching factory lately? Obviously don’t doxx yourself!

      Honestly I managed to convince some suits that an ethical and compliance issue was important enough to get them to shove resources into it so that was cool. It’s good when your technology is following the law instead of pretending like a consumer protection law doesn’t matter to you. I managed to convince them hard enough that they were thanking me for keeping the company ahead of possible legal issues. So that’s kinda cool.

      How’s your computer touching life going

        Hell yeah, those are the small day to day wins i love

        My thing is always accessibility, I do user facing client development and I’m a constant pain in the ass when design gives us some unreasonably inaccessible stuff

          This brings back memories of an abomination of a design I had to implement that had 3 scrollable regions whose edges were really close to eachother. None of the regions had scroll bars either. Fortunately, the project got cancelled before it could see the light of day.
