The specific thing you spend the most time doing instead of the actual job you're being paid to do is your new profession. What's your new job title? (lemmy.world)

There was this Russian developer who got jailed for something a couple years back. I've looked up his website and it was a giant field of mines. Up to the challenge, I've proceeded for weeks to try to clear it during work hours. Finally managed and all I got was something akin to a laugh.wav as a reward.

Guess I'm a minesweeper.

I am so curious. Tell me more about this? Can you share a link? What are the mines like- I’ve seen devs do escape room style challenges where you’re solving a progressive puzzle using dev tools, is it like that?
