Hey! Thats offensive to 19-25 year olds, there are many who just finished college/university and are more than aware.

They’re just role playing like in movies, with no idea of the consequences.

How on earth is it offensive to say they're "not experts"? They're not prodigies with PhDs. These specific young men are just technical enough and ideologically aligned.

Except they’re not, as you will know their tweet would be false after your first year of any technical (IT oriented) education.

First year? That shit is like A+ cert level knowledge or below, and A+ is damn near worthless. They would know that in the first few hours of a study guide

I was being generous when you consider the people in school who somehow pass, even when they don’t know a thing 🥲

Technical enough to be hired, is all I meant. 🙄

[-] grue@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Even then, no. These were all obviously nepotism hires who would not have otherwise qualified.

Meh, some of them won some hackathons and scholarships, it's pretty clear they're otherwise at least somewhat bright but they don't have any relevant domain knowledge.

In other words, the type of person most likely to be prone to hubris and catastrophic failures.

Apologies, if I came over as hostile. I did not get your meaning through text.

[-] Windex007@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Your original comment was ambiguous as to if being an "expert" and "being 19-25" are mutually exclusive.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

lol a 19-21 yo isnt going to have a degree lol,

If they went into uni straight out of high school, they could. A lot of Bachelor holders would be around that age, since they start at 18.
