I will not burden you with all the details, but I have been and still am totally exhausted. There's a lot of things wearing me out and work is more than stressful. I do hope that things will get better soon.

Yeah, Ghostscript is a mess even for users.

Nope. Fixing bugs found in an Android app module done by other people.

My day in a nutshell:

99 little bugs in the code
99 little bugs in the code
Take one down, patch it around
117 little bugs in the code

Yeah, but I doubt I will ever do that. There are only 2 people working on this project and we have a ton of things to do and keep an eye on. Perhaps they are now realizing that maybe the project has way too few people working on it…

Also, everything is my fault again, especially all those things that I haven't done in the first place. Sometimes I wonder if I should take a sick leave whenever I need to handle all this shit…

Sigh… There is a crashing bug in the app1 that has an easy workaround that users can be instructed to use in the meantime. I have a solution idea but it takes a couple of days to write and test it. However, this bug seems to be a major issue to one person and the app cannot be published even with the instructions to work around it.


  1. Caused by Android, by the way, not by the app code.

Whoa… A Finnish bird photographer has managed to snap a photo of a golden eagle [en.wikipedia.org] (Aquila chrysaetos chrysaetos) that, according to the band in its leg, is over 34.5 years old. Impressive, I must say.

Aye. That is the very reason I have stopped following tech media completely. They produce nothing but endless stream of complaints of irrelevant non-issues.

They are great brain-turned-off entertainment. Worth the time investment. Also, if you watch them second time you will notice a lot more hidden gags and gems in every scene.
