"despite the many people who have shown time and time and time again that it definitely does not do fine detail well and will often present shit that just 10000% was not in the source material, I still believe that it is right all the time and gives me perfectly clean code. it is them, not I, that are the rubes"

probably Hary Pawter because otherwise they'll have to admit how much ~~copyrighted material they've stolen~~ "fair use they're employing"

I’m a senior software engineer

ah, a señor software engineer. excusé-moi monsoir, let me back up and try once more to respect your opinion

uh, wait:

but I can’t trust a junior engineer to be perfect either

whoops no, sorry, can't do it.

jesus fuck I hope the poor bastards that are under you find some other place real soon, you sound like a godawful leader

and the engineers I know who are still avoiding it work noticeably slower

yep yep! as we all know, velocity is all that matters! crank that handle, produce those features! the factory must flow!!

fucking christ almighty. step away from the keyboard. go become a logger instead. your opinions (and/or the shit you're saying) is a big part of everything that's wrong with industry.

I swear all those fuckers are like "I was 4 rooms over but just heard the word 'paprika' being screamed from someone over this way. time for you to hear all about my bowel issues, in detail! you wouldn't believe what happens if I smell onions", but at a conference as a lightning talk to the main hall

the looting of the commons continues apace

I'm not too surprised by this happening (and I see the specter of the same thing approaching with salt (bought by vmware bought by broadcom...)), but god am I tired of how fucking effective the method is

when I asked him if jewish people in WWII concentration camps were just choosing to be unhappy he was like yes

oof.

that whole strain of "it's only in your mind" motherfuckers who just outright disregard varieties of concrete evidence.... whether from biochemically-etc originated body- and being-related problems all the way through things like the example you gave.. I've had to deal with a couple of them myself (my can of brainworms include some choice seasonal unfun things) and good god do I often want to boop them on the nose

I was wondering why the name Kevin Roose sounded familiar and ah, right

[–] froztbyte@awful.systems 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

okay a lot of that is good and all, but here's the flipside: a lot of these fuckwits outright prey on naïve curiousity. it is one of their biggest feeders for taking in people who don't yet know any better

and that's kinda the point. broadly I agree with you, but curiousity is/can be a dangerous thing

(also the reason I asked was the framing of one of your statements, so: Rationalism, big-R specifically. congratulations on learning about some of the worst people around)

I..... have to ask: are you actually aware of what the hell the context is of the things that you're commenting about?

I’m not suggesting which ideas are right and wrong, or which he would accept or reject

you: thinks one is doing this with care and finesse

nobody:

everyone else: 🤨
