I can't understand how anyone attempts to participate in conversation on that site. People will tell you it's "building your network" and that it's "helping your career," but the reality is it's just a bunch of business people jerking each other off over words that mean nothing.

Yeah, everyone likes to point to that as a reason why the snitch isn't completely broken. But all it does is show that Victor Krum is a moron who can't trust his teammates to score literally 20 points.

That kind of system makes so much more sense if the games are for a set amount of time. Otherwise, what's to stop two teams from dragging a game out to ensure they both surpass whoever is in the lead?

It's honestly hilarious how much being the seeker isolates Harry from the rest of the team. He doesn't have any team plays besides the occasional interaction with the beaters. It would have been so much more interesting if the position were removed, the game lasted a set amount of time, and Harry was a chaser.

I love that they deleted their comments but I still know exactly what they were saying. The excuse that sometimes the team catching the snitch loses is ridiculous. No one who is actually trying to win would ever let that be the outcome. The fact that Krum did it in the book just showed that he didn't trust his team at all.

Know a guy who tried to use AI to vibe code a simple web server. He wasn't a programmer and kept insisting to me that programmers were done for.

After weeks of trying to get the thing to work, he had nothing. He showed me the code, and it was the worst I've ever seen. Dozens of empty files where the AI had apparently added and then deleted the same code. Also some utter garbage code. Tons of functions copied and pasted instead of being defined once.

I then showed him a web app I had made in that same amount of time. It worked perfectly. Never heard anything more about AI from him.

This describes literally every python contract job I've ever had.

Looks like the kidnapper also stole the null terminator for this string!
