The guys I graduated with who were beyond terrible at software development are now managers...

Cough. Cough. Familiar pattern..? lol.

Yeah, they dodged a bullet. We also literally migrated the worst dev we had to a manager. It was so weird. Friend politics it was. After that, actually, didn't hear anything from him again. He just sad there, doing stuff I have no idea about. Like many managers. I never get it, how can do those people always work on shit that nobody notices.

That... sounds accurately.

He’ll be fired bc management can easily be replaced by AI

Did he also work at amazon?

@BordedDev No. lol

@CaptainRant well then let's hope he doesn't think he's as knowledgeable as this one thinks he is so he doesn't code reviews

@BordedDev This were his coding skills in the second year of college:

Task:

"Implement a chess board with different characters from a collection elsewhere"

His code in general:

I was appalled. This guy had worse coding than someone from high school. lol

@CaptainRant Ah yeah that look similar ;P

And yeah, even someone who does a 1 year course will know to do that better

@CaptainRant AI often codes like that, instead of doing some nifty trick. That way works on all languages i guess.

@retoor From my experience it doesn't. lol
