Programming is mostly research. Researching curses to cast on the guy who wrote the Incomprehensible mess you’re currently debugging.

Well yeah, 100% of programming errors are programmers fault.
Meanwhile PHP quietly runs 80% of the internet by being used for WordPress.
“There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses.”
Always remember, the silicon valley ethos of “break things” wasn’t about their applications, it was about breaking industry, society, laws and your ability to oversee or regulate them.
the tests are now larger than the thing itself
Is such a weird complaint. You should aim for your codebase to be as small, simple and readable as possible, while your tests should be a specification that guarantees behavior is consistent between refactors. When you add behavior, you add tests, when you remove a behavior, you delete tests.
The size of either is independent of eachother. Small code bases that provide lots of features should be simple to read, but with a lot of tests.
considering how huge FB still is.
FB is only huge because they’ve expanded all over the globe, even providing internet to developing nations to facilitate new user acquisition. In reality they’ve been bleeding the original Western users that signed up between '04-'10, and growth among new generations flatland a long time ago. There’s a reason Meta aggressively expanded to other ventures (or attempt to create platforms) like Instagram, Threads, what’s app, VR and metaverse. Metas only chance at sustainable growth and capturing young people is to build or buy platforms young people will use, because it ain’t Facebook.
Apparently every code base I’ve ever worked on was run through this.
I never saw that, that’s legitimately funny. I’d love to be in the room when that feature was designed, and the reaction of the developer it was handed too.
I don’t know if the game is the best example of busineses making top-down design decisions, since that game was an obvious scam from the start.
Machines aren’t people. Machines don’t learn. Machines copy data, manipulate and replicate it. That is copyright infringement. The laws for Machine duplication don’t apply to human learning.
Canada did it right, and just named the city without adding new.
London Ontario, Paris Ontario, Berlin Ontario (before it was renamed over a minor European dispute).
Unfortunately Nova Scotia was already called that before it joined.
Remember when people were calling this dummy the “real life Tony Stark”? Lol.
Oh wow, I’ve seen this guys shorts start popping up constantly. He seems like he understands the algorithm enough to explode
Seems it got much worse.
Seems like it’s going great for the developer.
CIA is an initialism, not an acronym, since you pronounce each letter individually.
What you sir are suggesting is a complete erasure of initialisms, and I will not stand for it.
That’s really only because the U.S. government is set up all stupid to give the religious nut jobs over-representation. The House is capped at 435. It should be way bigger so bigger states with bigger populations had significanrly more represtatives than the tiny ones.
Web & mobile development took a wrong tern 10 million miles back, and no one wants to turn the car around and admit it.
Yes, and the people directly contributing to the project have legitimate gripes. Although, the parable of dhh is if you get on an asshole scorpions back, don’t be surprised if you get stung. Dudes been an unreasonable prick for nearly 20 years now.
My comments directed at the manufactured outrage from the tooling zealots incapable of having a mature conversation. Or even accept a difference of opinion. The number of comments that start with, "never heard of Turbo, but let me weigh in on why you’re an idiot for not liking Typescript. " is very telling…
Ivermectin is an anti-parasite drug used in treating heartworm. It was one of the early conspiracy cures for covid, despite the fact viruses are notoriously different from parasitic roundworm. There was also a constrained supply of the drug used for human treatments, so the qanon types were buying the version of the treatment meant or horses.
