Can you hack my ex's Instagram profile?
Seriously, this question has been asked to all Indonesians who worked in IT (including those who aren't working in cybersecurity), colloquially called as "Anak IT" (literally IT person)
Just search for "Anak IT hack" on Twitter and you'll see those
lost young Indonesian singlesclients asking for true help."Can we save 4g data to use them when we are offline? Like an external charger" I found this question cute π
Technically, though, the answer is "yes."
I've seen this one a few times:
By the way, what does btw mean?
What is the unit conversion for MBs to KGs? It looks like my phone is getting heavier when I don't clear WhatsApp chat and media files.
What do you actually do by sitting all day in front of computer?
My wife asks me how I know so many things when "I thought you just sat in front of a computer all day."

You build software products for investment banking, can you help me invest in equities?
You have done computers engineering, right? Can you fix my DVD Reader?
My wife once looked over at me coding and saw
class ComponentHolderOptionExtractor
. As programmers, this makes perfect sense, a longer but more descriptive name, but she thought the name was just ridiculous and hilarious. To this day, anytime she wants to pretend she understands coding, she'll throw out that word with a look of "I bet you don't understand it, but I do!"A few months after that, I refactored my app and generalized that class and renamed it to
ModularListOptionExtractor
. She'll never forgive me for killing off her belovedComponentHolderOptionExtractor

When I code in sunday / night, my girlfriend always once ask me,
"is it job? Do they pay you for late hours working?"
"No nobody pays me, I'm just learning, this just Open Source, I build something just to be share with others"
"So you're working for free?, What a waste of time"
I'm just smiling π Open Source technologies are still blackhole for most people outside technology.
Your girlfriend is not wrong.
It's better to get work on open-source and getting paid for it while you are at work.
Smart companies understand that making time for learning is essential
I know that kind of conversations too. Most of these people understand if you explain that it's a great way to support other people while gaining experience and projects for your portfolio. πͺπ»
Yeah, I always explain to others to use the platform for good. Literalry we all on top of Open Source and Free Software. And we all need that constant on learning something, because tech are always changing.
My wife:
She loves to be included even though I'm speaking in tongues to her most of the time.
"Hey, could you make a website for me? It's easy, right?"
Once someone asked me, if I was hacking. I was writing an assignment with LaTeX.
π nice! Most people think you are a hacker if you have a text editor with a dark theme... And if you open a terminal and type
sudo apt update
, their eyes become like πand then they'll ask "whats wrong with your keyboard? I saw no text when you where entering your password"
I didn't even use dark theme π But that is so true! Terminal with green font and 20% opacity, if you really want to show of π
when the system admin was trying interchanging her pc monitor with another one, then she yelled at him by saying there was a lot of data on my desktop and she needs it!
