10 years ago the FB mobile app had 18,000 classes. Classes. Not lines of code. Classes.
AI will replace those devs... -
@retoor he might know a lot but he sounds dumb as a plank.
-
IRL logic: Trump.
-
I had 5 years in c++ high performance data analysis. Was told I'd be doing similar stuff for genetics. First month I was dumped on html bullshit (I'd never written any before).
-
6 small VMs (or one larger) and 20gb database, plus other stuff, free forever
-
Oracle cloud free tier is pretty generous but I've only really dicked around with it, aws for work stuff.
-
That I had to google for your used definition is why. Trunk would be plausible.
-
IMO, better than the take home which "should only take a couple of hours", and is realistically 3 days unpaid work...

Basically wavelength in time

@12bitfloat my first job out of uni I was in a company of 15 people, almost all devs, super passionate and insanely competent people. I learnt insane amounts and it's why I'm such a good dev now. And now I work in a shitty team that's fine with half assing it and that's my biggest learning experience. Need to change but life is complicated and a bit of job security has its advantages.
-
Every Python dev knows Python is OK but not great. We've consigned ourselves to our fate.
-
@12bitfloat the problem is its easy to make the next thing in JS, hard to maintain.
It's easier to maintain typescript but if anyone asks about performance or why you're using 1GB of memory, you're cooked. -
If you're a good programmer working alone, you don't need the safety it adds. If you work with others and think some of them are idiots, rust has some benefits.
-
The youtube app has become increasingly more buggy. I have premium for music, I'd never pay for the broken ass app
-
Doing dev consensus based on which bug was implemented least frequently
-
Have found bugs in 2 of the other implementations so far, so half way to working out if I'm most right
-
@retoor alas I'm one of the 4 implementations and the standard is "Unicode"
-
There's usually a "don't recommend channel" option I go for. Downvoting doesn't really hurt the video, platforms promote engaging content not positive content. Or at least used to, now meta and x just promote bullshit.
-
Time to start writing an extension?
-
@antigermgerm about 16stone 6lb
-
@antigermgerm me, a 105kg boulderer, begs to differ
-
Also when that dude falls his belayer is hitting his head on the rock above him, wear a helmet when you're outdoors I have friends that have had literal boulders fall on them.
-
Why the fuck go climbing to improve surfing I'm so confused...
-
@retoor I miss working on a project where the library and framework were the product. Far more interesting than the bullshit I'm working on at the moment
-
That whole process took me about 3 years...
-
Says the script kiddy that's only coded in JS. There are some well written code bases.
-
@Demolishun but... I'm sending the right message about ADHD...
-
@retoor LIES!!!
-
@kiki I don't think our traits are immutable, we're chemical computers that take drugs to load different software (what taking ADHD meds feels like sometimes).

What you think about you says something about your anxiety and confidence tho
