Have you ever been to PowerShell Summit? It’s the only nerd conference I’ve ever attended where only about half the attendees actually realized they are nerds at a nerd conference. I love the vibe. It’s got style and pizzazz.
That said, the added entry for PowerShell would still be: “You are a nerd.”
Well shit. It’s got me dead to rights on a couple of these.
Incidentally, for anyone who hasn’t typed ‘import antigravity’ into an interactive Python terminal…you should - as Dr Seuss says, “These things are fun, and fun is good.”
That mite bee! I will cheque!
It dosent have any mispelings.
We could form a support group. Maybe the least healthy support group in history, but a support gro up.
In all these replies, this one actually made me wince in pain. I guess I had cleared the term AJAX from my memories.
Yeah. I consider it important to maintain a healthy agnosticism about the possibility of heaven. It’s dangerous to wait to start living as the person I want to be!
But on the topic of hell - well, I’ve needed to make two computers talk to eachother using the XML specification. I know that hell is very real.
Holy cow! You’ve done it! You could wrap this (static text block) in a web API and sell it.
Edit: /s, I guess. But that text really is easily an 80% solution for meeting summaries.
Hell yes! I’ll join the front of the hype train if they can demo an AI fielding questions while a project manager reviews a card wall.
This joke has layers, is quite funny, and kind of hurt. Just like my pointer handling code!
Yep. Incredibly powerful, and it will not hesitate to help you blow your own legs off.
The big difference is that git will save your legs in reflog for a couple of weeks.
I predict that, within the year, AI will be doing 100% of the development work that isn’t total and utter bullshit pain-in-the-ass complexity, layered on obfuscations, composed of needlessly complex bullshit.
That’s right, within a year, AI will be doing .001% of programming tasks.
Who has four thumbs and a top tier business plan? This AI!
I’ve begun to understand that the modern meaning of an apostrophe is “oh shit! Here comes an ‘s’”.
Sadly, I am gradually growing okay with that idea.
Great story. I love: “That’s how they communicate. They flap their meat at eachother.”
Yep. It still holds. I’ve worked with all of these people, and most of them within the last year.
The language names, and trendy names for the tech are really the only bit that would need updated for today.
I had that situation for several years. I skipped to a pro-opensource organization, and have never looked back. The coolest part is I have commits accepted to some big name projects now, which I figure is part of why nobody asks me to write fizz-buzz in an interview anymore.
And a Python developer is born!
Source: I moved on from an abusive relationship with JavaScript to a healthy not-at-all-controlling equal partner relationship with Python. And four spaces makes perfect sense, once I really considered Python’s point of view…
