Thanks for the insight. Damn, it's a real weight to work on some shit you just don't care for. That is brutal, sorry. For me, instead of having a job I don't like, I'm just unemployed. Naturally some part of me wishes I just had anything.
The programming I do is mostly lower level. Microcontrollers and some FPGA stuff. As it happens I got pretty familiar with Eclipse 🙃. I used it first when working with AVR microcontrollers, and the MSP430 and STM32 platforms both have their own IDEs based on Eclipse (CCS and STM32Cube). Vendor provided embedded IDEs and minimalism do not go together.

In principle I probably already knew that, and just couldnt put it in practicd. naive of me

Yeah Ive got to stay level headed. It's not totally rational but right now it feels like I passed up the best chance I'll ever get at stability.
I think my worst attribute is just not talking to anyone. Every time I'm in a tough spot i just try to reason through by myself, and it usually works out.
i posted about passing on a job offer a few weeks ago. I didn't *really* pass on it, I accepted but told them that the work wasn't what i really wanted to do, and they decided to rescind the offer. same thing jobs are so scarce, I definitely should have just said nothing and sign the contract. They would drop me any time they wanted, so I can leave any time I want too. i just couldn't commit to something i thought would make me miserable. At the time I didn't think I could even tolerate the job. Got some space to think properly and I just don't think that's true any more. I can tolerate it fine. Work environment is fine, pay is fine, just the work wasnt what i wanted to focus on. These are all just tech white collar jobs anyways, what was i hesitating for. motherfucker I've got some clarity now, i'll move on. sometimes i just hate myself

If you HAD to choose between a nice sandwich and getting mauled by a wolverine, which would you choose?

If you had a bad feeling about it before you even started there then there's a 99% chance that you were going to hate it if you took the job.
That's exactly what I was feeling. There's a chance I wouldn't hate it because I never had a job exactly like it, but I can't even look forward to it. (I'm obfuscating details here) I have experience in both hardware and software/firmware domains, but my interest is mostly on the hardware side and this job is almost pure software. I can do it, but

I will do it. I will trust myself and keep going.

That's right. I had considered this angle but just couldn't pull the trigger on it. Next time absolutely.
I just passed on a tech job offer. It's not a bad job and I would have been good at it, too, but its just not what I want to do. will I regret this after my other applications fall through? Yeah. I would also regret it if I had to work 40 hours a week doing that job. I know lots of people working jobs they hate, so what am I doing turning a good one down, right? Man. I don't know. i followed my instinct on that one. My instinct is fallible as fuck

Trump is speaking mandarin and Harris is speaking cantonese.
TRUMP: Maybe I should just reflect, and not speak more. I've been abandoned, do I deserve that? If I really was a bad shepherd, can I try again? Can I hold you again?
HARRIS: When I look back, walking with you, I've never been happy.
TRUMP: Too much hate, it's no use. To bring up the past only torments us.
HARRIS: Looking ahead, if I'm with you, I don't think there will be much happiness either.
TRUMP: I hurt you, and caused you pain.

the masterful cat is depressed again today is my favorite thing ever.
it's a very peaceful slice of life, about an office worker who sucks at life skills and has a giant cat. The cat does the cooking, shopping, housework, etc. It's a 10/10 for me but it probably only works if you are a cat person
It just got an animated adaptation which is frankly a bit low budget but I still really liked it.

Sometimes there's a real humdinger of a comment, like a real ![data-laughing](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/b6671e8e-7f34-45d6-82d3-509fe8a4d683.png "data-laughing") that I'd like to reply to, but I find that it only shows up on lemmy.ml and not here. Is that expected behaviour?

I still have to paint, weather, finish the wiring, etc. which knowing me will take me a few weeks/decades ![lenin-pogger](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/570cfc1e-2eda-40e1-b057-ffd89eb00dc4.png "lenin-pogger"). Usually, I'd just attach this to a base and run all the wires along the base arm to hide them. Only recently I found out about powering the LEDs wirelessly, which sounds way cooler...
