change it just works to “m’lady”

and to be fair all be said was “language”, he didn’t know that the OP would be replying with the receipts that would get them rejected by NASA

unironically this shit is so prevalent in the programming community that I can’t help to laugh and shrug it off

remember: YouTubers are just that, most of them don’t even work with the tech they gloat about

and for devlopment tools/frameworks/dependencies the mantra is: boring tech works, just remember that it needs to be currently supported/developed

AI bros and the cognitive dissonance between “productivity” plugins/projects that make llms repeat their inputs and confidentially asserting that llms are actually good for code

“not again” as a punchline is the level of creativity I’d expect from a slopper

You cannot tinker windows though.

For Linux it’s customization and preferences, for Windows it’s using regedit to completely break your system by removing features the core OS uses for some reason like Cortana/Search and Copilot, etc.

Everything you don’t want is baked in to the core.

Basically one of my first interviews straight out of college, I did find out the hire was nepo

Arduino is dogshit, I will not elaborate.

What do you use for backup restores ?

I realized when he was talking about mongodb and completely failed to understand the issue he had with it was strictly a design issue created by the team he worked with (or potentially by him)

Theo is a shill and product expert masquerading as a 10x developer when at best he’s an intermediate web dev

PowerShell is fantastic in practice but whenever I think of writing shell scripts I think of bash first.

Bash is a lot more pleasant to work with overall, the biggest concern most people have is that it can be cryptic. IMO PowerShell scripts can be the exact same kind of voodoo.

because it’s what the normals like

how many yoe ?

basically where I work right now. our John sadly tried their best but the company did not hire any more engineers. he was the sole engineer for about 7 years and everything is built from the ground up by him. John came across weird issues and used a very stinky legacy language to fix those issues.

about 9 years into his career they hired Andy and Andy tried to make as much sense of John’s code but it was challenging and for the next 5 or so years millions of dollars ran through an application made by 2 developers.

anyways now I’m getting paid a lot of money because John does consulting and Andy found a way better job, but I also get the “house of cards” questions a lot.

I think management thinks they can replace me as well because I came in here and things seem to be running after Andy’s departure.

But if I quit or they fire me the entire company is going under as the next engineers in line will simply quit

That’s literally everything ever that is worth it.

Imagine saying “I really wanna play piano but I just wish I understood how to play it better. I keep having to look up how to do things”.

I was like wait this is so cool then I realized I’m on Linux already

100% agree, just more rage bait fuel for the fire

it’s absolutely not niche
