Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture.

That guy to all his friends: "AI makes me 10x more productive!"

I can definitely respect a limited approach. I personally don't find any benefit from it. Anecdotally, I've become much more productive since switching from OOP style C++, to just straight C. I think a lot of that comes from the boilerplate and ceremony required to make it do the thing, but in C, you just do the thing.

I also think even using objects tends to encourage poorer design choices by thinking in terms of individual items (and their lifetimes) which is enforced by the constructor/destructor model. As opposed to thinking in terms of groups of items which leads to simpler and safer code.

Yup. They made it to the other side of the bell curve meme. Most developers have an OOP phase until they learn that it's utter bullshit.

Did you hear.. the leader of the world's largest pedophile club died. Then, the subordinate members sent smoke signals, and there is a new leader. Holy shit, he's American! Let's interview a guy who visited an ice cream shop 2 towns away from where he went to school.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but they seemed pretty adamant about it. They even said they'd send it to collections.

I'm in Pennsylvania which is a "right to work" state.

I see this and assume it's fake. Then, my wife starts a job where they make her pay for her own background heck and drug test and tell her she will be charged $250 if she quits without a 2 week notice. How is any of that legal?!

I don't think it's the propaganda machine (or maybe this is), but in the US, almost nothing is reported from other countries. If 100,000 people died in some wild natural disaster outside the US, we would get almost no real details, but we would get the full life story of the one American that was killed who was from New Jersey. It's just the way our media is. No real information. Just dumb sap stories.

It's the same reason the Republicans haven't been able to identify when they're ingesting blatant Russian propaganda. They've never seen or heard it before outside of their favorite American talking head.

We enter parliament in order to supply ourselves, in the arsenal of democracy, with its own weapons. If democracy is so stupid as to give us free tickets and salaries for this bear's work, that is its affair. We do not come as friends, nor even as neutrals. We come as enemies. As the wolf bursts into the flock, so we come.
