    Software developer. The frequency of stupid features that PMs request, followed by our urgency to implement it as fast as possible has opened up so many bugs and issues. Knowing that, why the hell would I want to open up potential failure to things I expect to work 100% of the time, like a toaster?

      Software programmer. I have a Google Home running because I’m lazy af and like to be able to verbally turn on/off lights. I also use it to combat ADHD symptoms because saying “set an alarm” is less likely to distract me from what I’m doing than pulling out my phone is.
