The fact that you have to say it depends and wait for clarification of which exact flavor of Linux version and problem it is is just chef’s kiss

Immutable because the only lists worth iterating over are the ones I define for myself.

I mean, if OP is going to the type of websites that have that significant of a risk of hacking him, he’s pretty deep into the depravity.

I think you could definitely read and bugfix code without ever learning to “write” code. Code intentionally reads kind of like a language, it’s possible that this guy was just doing very simple tasks and the most he would have to change are variable names and values. Maybe he knows how to fix errors reported by the code and knows how to look for variables.

It’s a fine line between that and knowing how to code, but that’s kinda the joke of this post I guess.

Just how different is a meme community to a shitpost community. Do we really need to split them?

If you show me a windows fanboy I’ll show you a bridge for sale.

I think in the original the sign said something like “league of legends”. I forget the exact game.

I’m in engineering school and the ethos definitely is “engineers write bad code but it’s for simple tasks involving complex math.” As the world of engineering steers more and more towards coding we’re definitely going to be expected to write applications instead of simple Matlab scripts and there’s no way it’s going to be pleasant.

That goes back to the point I was making earlier. For some reason a bank teller is hired for the same wage for the same hours, but I can almost guarantee you that because of the ATM they spend significantly less of their work day “working” because the ATM was designed to do a significant portion of their job. There certainly is an excuse to keep them around all day, there are some unavoidable tasks that only a human can do and they come up at random times throughout the day, but the ATM has replaced many of the working hours the bank tellers used to have even if the job didn’t go away.

Sure, but also almost by definition, using tech to replace workers in other industries will reduce the total amount of workers needed for that job as you made the tech presumably to make the job easier or faster. My post was talking about the tech industry just because that was the topic, but as you mention, tech definitely replaces jobs in all sectors.

I mean honestly for things like tech, the jobs are going away due to these innovations, just piecemeal. Each of these innovations have shaved hours off of projects. Now someone’s salary might be the same and they might still have to go into the office 40hrs a week (or be just as productive working from home, go figure) but the actual work they’re doing is that much easier than it used to be, they might only have to work 4 hours a day now to accomplish what might have taken 2 days in the past.

Sure, certain companies put more demand on employees than others, and as you mentioned there are still human components to the system that remain untouched by technology, but if the tech world was honest with itself tech employees do far less work now than they did 10-20 years ago, disregarding the general expansion of the tech industry. I’m just talking about individual jobs.

Of course I don’t think those employees should be making less. I think if we innovate so much that a person’s job disappears we should be able to recognize that that person still deserves to be clothed and fed as if they still had that job.

What if I pour the grounds and water directly into the cup and just drink around them?

Yeah for real, trying to get people to switch by saying that windows crashes all the time/ has driver issues/ bricks hardware or software is just not the selling point people think it is because windows doesn’t do that 99% of the time.

And does Linux ever do that? “wellllll yeah sometimes it can but only if you’re using it wrong.”

Linux users realizing Windows is fine.
