@Alice I think (knowing him for nearly 6 years) it was just an empty brag :/
-
@JoshBent yes I am (😩) and too badly I know him too well for believing that :/.
How much I wish though! -
No no @linuxxx , its not about if you invented this or not, its about that this works or not as a rant.
Getting back on track, fuuck, that sucks dude, but well, this world will always be full of braggadocios everywhere -
@Jamoyjamie @linuxxx sounds familiar, is that what the 500 were all about? 😏

I have had that feeling more times than I'd like... It's especially frustrating when a friend has introduced me to them because they "know we both like computers".
A friend's baby-daddy was like this. She'd asked me if I could try to help find him a job, so I started asking about his experience, languages, etc. He answered "you know, command line terminal stuff" to everything. He couldn't even tell me what OS he was working on until I asked "which windows version were you on?"
And of course, he couldn't ever just tell me what he was doing. I wouldn't understand... Universal among the type, I think. I feel your pain. -
@linuxxx

@hjk101 They veeeeery probably don't exist 😉
A while ago (few months) I was on the train back home when I ran into an old classmate. I know that he's a designer/frontend/wordpress guy and I know that he'll bring anyone down in order to feel good. I also know that he knows jack shit about security/backend.
The convo went like this:
Me: gotta say though, wordpress and its security...
Him: yeah ikr it's bad. (me thinking 'dude you hardly know what the word cyber security means)
Me: yeah, I work at a hosting company now, most sites that get hacked are the wordpress ones.
Him: yeah man, same at my company. I made a security thing for wordpress though so we can't get hacked anymore.
Me; *he doesn't know any backend NOR security..... Let's ask him difficult stuff*
Oh! What language did you use?
Him: yeah it works great, we don't get hacked sites anymore now!
Me: ah yeah but what language did you use?
Him: oh it's not about what language you use, it's about whether it works or not! My system works great!
Me: *yeah.....right.* oh yeah but I'd like to know so I can learn something. What techniques did you use?
Him: well obviously firewalls and shit. It's not about what techniques/technology you use, it's about whether it works or not!
That's the moment I was done with it and steered the convo another way.
You don't know shit about backend or security, cocksucker.
