  • You don't want to hear me read aloud, I deliberately add malapropisms because I find them funny, especially when I have to read the names of fantasy characters and places. I am not going to read your pronunciation guide in your half baked fantasy language! You're not Tolkien! If it reads like Chicken, I'm saying Chicken.

  • MTG's approach to politics is to say the most outrageous shit to gain attention and clout. She has no principles at all, other than "Any publicity is good publicity".

    Right now, she's being crowded out by all the other Republicans like Nancy Mace, Pam Bondi, Kristi Noem etc. being just as crazy as she is. She can't go any crazier without losing support, so she has to pivot in the opposite direction in order to stand out and get the media's attention like she used to.

    It's working, by the way. Until she started saying this stuff, did you see anything from MTG? I didn't.

  • Will it have Margot Robbie in a bathtub?

  • Don't underestimate sand. It's course, rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere!

  • You know why the drones in Ukraine are on super long fibre optic cables? Because it turns out it's really easy to jam them and the only way you're actually able to get a clean signal is through a cable. Either these robots are gonna be easy to jam, or you can cut the wires leading back to their handler and they'd just stop working.

  • The problem here is that all these major anime providers are owned by Sony, so you're kinda fucked if you want to boycott them.

  • ...So what learning styles are there?

  • My workplace doesn't allow Bitwarden because 'it's not secure'.

  • A real "API Genius" would be complaining that your API doesn't include HATEOAS, even though I've never once seen an API be used in that way, and few of the big tech APIs actually use it even though they call their APIs RESTful.

  • I like to think there's a bit of a difference between copying something from stackoverflow and not being able to read what you just pasted from stackoverflow.

    Sure, you can be lazy and just paste something and trust that it works, but if someone asks you to read that code and know what it's doing, you should be able to read it. Being able to read code is literally what you're paid for.

  • Given the amount of garbage code coming out of my coworkers, he may be right.

    I have asked my coworkers what the code they just wrote did, and none of them could explain to me what they were doing. Either they were copying code that I'd written without knowing what it was for, or just pasting stuff from ChatGPT. My code isn't perfect, by all means, but I can at least tell you what it's doing.

  • Nah, British are kings of pastries, pies and cakes. Also don't underestimate British cheeses. Cheddar cheese is the most popular cheese in the world, and where was it made? Britain. Then there's stuff like Stilton, Wensleydale, and while Somerset Brie is really just a variant of Brie, it's still really nice.

    That's not even digging into the various curries that gained their current forms in Britain, mainly by British Indians, who are just as British as any other.

  • I dunno I got my job last year and it was two interviews:

    • General personality interview, the sorts of normal interview questions like "Who are you? What do you do in your current job" etc.
    • Technical interview, which consisted of "Here's some code. Tell me what it's doing. How would you make it better?" and then some more general ones like "What design patterns have you heard of? Have you used them? If you have, when and why did you choose them?"

    That was pretty good when compared to some of the other jobs I applied for back when I was a student. I applied at Boots, and it was phone interview, technical interview, abstract reasoning test, group work test, a powerpoint presentation, final interview, and then I got rejected. I applied to Nissan, phone interview, big group interview day having to spend money to get to the location, rejected.

    I'm a bit more picky these days. One job wanted to record my screen and my face while doing a technical test, and I just refused outright, which pissed off the recruiter because she seemed pretty desperate to fill the role.
