People like this are the reason AI is so unreliable at exploring code issues.
Like, I just want Copilot to look at my dependencies to explain a vague error I’m seeing and it’s telling me to downgrade Ruby, upgrade Rails, and install Python. Bro, it’s a node package.
This was a GLORIOUS format! I missed the Herman Cain award mini stories and this was a breath of stank air.
Hey man, the number of major terrorist attacks the TSA has stopped is non-negative!
Edit: wait, they haven’t caused any, have they?
I think this is just a picky optimization.
The first one runs the constructor to instantiate a new string, then gets its class (which is presumably a static property anyway). The second doesn’t have to run any constructor and just grabs the static class name from the type.
Maybe there’s more implementation nuance here but it seems like an opinionated rule that has zero effect on performance unless that code is being called thousands of times every second. And even then the compiler probably optimizes them to the same code anyway.
Wasn’t it Visual SourceSafe or something like that?
God, what a revolution it was when subversion came along and we didn’t have to take turns checking out a file to have exclusive write access.
Idiocracy is the only movie I’m aware of that was released as a comedy and became a horror movie.
Half an hour is “we just broke our SLA” level bad. I guess if your org has been stripped of all its talent that’s the new standard.
Oh my god. What if Skynet was never an accident of AI evolving outside its intended parameters? What if it was a hilariously obvious and preventable apocalypse caused by a tech bro tweeting in the middle of the night while on ketamine?
Either it was an accident and wasn’t at fault at all. Or it was a coordinated stunt and Justin owns 50% of it, if other production people weren’t also in on it.
But Janet got shit on because she’s a woman and black and Justin somehow walked away unscathed for decades. Fucked up.
It wasn’t that long ago that the world almost ground to a halt because some people saw Janet Jackson’s breast.
Now we have this, and there will be zero consequences.
Elon’s shock and fury about the database key sounds like he got a report from an out-of-breath 20 year old DOGE kid who thinks they’re hot shit and discovered some massive flaw.
Elon also seems like the kind of person that believes a database schema is all that’s needed to govern a population.
Warnings? We’ll come back and address those later. Maybe once we’re feature complete. Or maybe shortly after that.
Correct. I can’t use the stairs because otherwise my already flailing joke wouldn’t work at all.
Given how slow the elevator is in my building, I’d do nothing. I’d be dead before it showed up.
It’s not monthly. They bill per blink. A la carte blinkers are so hot right now.
A full stack developer is either a back end developer that has no business writing front end code but does it anyway, or they’re a front end developer that has no business writing back end code but does it anyway.
Or they’re perfectly capable of doing both because they’re at a startup that’s years away from running at scale or having to worry about performance and security.
If the part of an iceberg that’s exposed to the air is hacked away, the rest of the mass will float up and a new section will be clearly visible.
This process can continue until there’s no ice left at all.
I’m only talking about ice, of course.
Pretty much. It’s a tired analogy, but the “unawakened” people in The Matrix come to mind. They’re not helping the cause, but it’s not right to declare that they’re evil or deserve hate like OP was suggesting.
They don’t know any better but that doesn’t mean they deserve ire. They’re reasonably reacting based on the information they have.
Maybe if he can tiredly adjust his glasses a bit more that will help something.
