<ELLIOTTCABLE> idk ljharb I've been passively failing out for ages
<ELLIOTTCABLE> but like I finally fucked up bad enough that I can't recover.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> time to go hunting for whatever depressingly-terrible job will have me, at 30yo w/ no degree and no experience!!!!! yay
<ljharb> not having a degree doesn't have to matter
<ELLIOTTCABLE> lol I mean, to some extent, sure
<ELLIOTTCABLE> but between repeated failed attempts to get a degree, and a failed attempt to build a programming language, I'm now stuck applying to jobs where I'll have to explain a *ten-year* lack of employment
<ELLIOTTCABLE> hahah w/e fucked myself nbd πŸ˜„

<purr\ec> [System] ELLIOTTCABLE pushed 2 new commits to refresh-vim+: https://github.com/ELLIOTTCABLE/System/compare/72a5fe9c5377...03effd862a89
<purr\ec> System/refresh-vim+ b7f56ea ELLIOTTCABLE: (vim rm plug) Bai, YouCompleteMe
<purr\ec> System/refresh-vim+ 03effd8 ELLIOTTCABLE: (new vim theme) Installing Nord to replace OceanicNext
<joepie91> ELLIOTTCABLE: fwiw, my (perhaps obvious?) advice would be to apply for the more unusual jobs; the types where "experience with weird personal projects" is considered a benefit
<joepie91> Random CRM Developer Inc. will probably demand a degree or commercial work experience
<joepie91> more 'novel' companies, probably not, if you have something to show practical experience (even if with weird projects)
<ELLIOTTCABLE> joepie91: hm, that was the opposite of my thoughts
<ELLIOTTCABLE> I'm kinda assuming the Cool Places are out of my reach, now ...
<ELLIOTTCABLE> was planning on applying to really terrible, boring, soul-crushing shit, since there's so much demand out there? idk, Ruby on Rails web-development or something rrofl
<ELLIOTTCABLE> weirdly
<ELLIOTTCABLE> idk what my plan is rn
<ELLIOTTCABLE> sitting here dicking around w/ my vim configuration because I'm not at all sure what to do w/ the rest of my life now
<ljharb> why assume that
<ljharb> the Cool Places don't care about degrees
<ljharb> you do have to have a good story tho
<ELLIOTTCABLE> but I'm also like a remarkably bad programmer
<ELLIOTTCABLE> like the time I *didn't* spend failing at school over hte past ten years, I spent failing to complete a useless programming langauge
<ELLIOTTCABLE> shit ain't. uh. great.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> gotta figure out my plan b b/cuz lol
<ljharb> language design and programming aren't the same skills
