Eh, excellent code still gets discussed. Your approach might be unique and they haven’t thought of it before. Or you may have perfectly suitable code, but it doesn’t consider other parts of the project that you’re not familiar with. Discussion isn’t an indication of bad code, unless the only thing being discussed are mistakes.
As soon as you can solve an issue! I found a bug in a Yelp WordPress plugin back when I barely knew any PHP and figured out how to fix it, because I needed that plugin to get paid for the project I was working on. I submitted a pull request and they accepted it! That’s the first contribution I ever made to a corporate project. The people in charge of the repository will give you feedback if they want things changed, and can provide a lot of guidance. Just start committing and you’ll learn a lot.
but so far there hasn’t even been a parliamentary debate on it.
Because the longer they take to legislate it, the more intrusive they can permanently be.
And guess what. They’ll keep at it unless at least one of them goes to prison.
I am chroot.
Nah, I’m a Gen X’er. I agree that the internet in the 90’s was cool, but by the late 90’s, early 00’s it was a lot more polished and bandwidth was plentiful enough to actually get a lot of stuff done online without ridiculous wait times. After MySpace fell and Facebook took over, it was still pretty cool. It’s when Facebook established dominance over the web, sharing their shitty like buttons everywhere, Google started buying out cool companies and making their search engine worse, and blogs & forums started dying that I think the internet lost its soul.
Dude! Those are the first step to getting the skate wheels from Snow Crash!
What are they charging? A standard non-apple 5 amp cable is $15-$20 for a good one. People think they’re cheaper because they’re used to buying junky 1.5 or 3 amp cables that don’t even meet the USB-C spec for $5 on Amazon. If you’re using a quick charger and your charge times haven’t changed, you’re using a cable that doesn’t support enough amps.
It’s full of people who don’t love it, but wanted to get rich
This causes me unending frustration using the web now. There are so many terrible practices on so many websites, just because they think it’ll make them a little extra money. I used to run a bunch of blogs as my primary means of income, and I always refused to do things that I found annoying. These days the companies seem to seek out whatever is annoying and use that strategy without fail.
I wasn’t rude about it. I doubt it had any measurable impact on their day at all.
I was pumping gas a couple of weeks ago and that stupid TV came on and started playing ads at full blast. I stopped pumping, went inside, and pulled a Karen. I asked for the manager and then told him that I want someone to know that I’m never coming back to that station because it’s forcing ads on me when I’m already paying for a product. Then I left and will never go back. I know they don’t give a shit about one person, but if more people took these stands then we could stop having so much shit shoved down our throats.
It’s really weird that someone downvoted your comment. It’s not offensive in any way, and it contributes to the conversation. I see the most innocent stuff get heavily downvoted on this platform for some reason.
Hey, it’s SpaceWeedKid! It’s like meeting a celebrity! I’m in the screenshot!
Old people can still go into the branch if that’s more their speed, assuming there are still any branches around. My credit union shut the local branch down and opened up some stupid branch that doesn’t even have cash on hand.
That’s quite an ambitious project. I hope you’re able to get it all done!
Idk man, farding is pretty close to shitting, and it’s a shitposting community after all. Let the man have his farts.
Yes there have been a lot of improvements to the way businesses operate due to the internet. I love how banking has changed, internet shopping, remote work, and all of that kind of stuff. I think that’s kind of separate from what I’m talking about though. I suppose I should have said the World Wide Web and not the internet, specially the WWW as used by individuals and groups for communication and sharing.
Okay ChatGPT has been an exciting announcement. That’s true, thanks for reminding me. It’s somewhat of a double edged sword too though. It’s hugely beneficial for my job right now, but I’m also seriously concerned about the future of my career for the first time since entering this field. I have no delusions that ChatGPT won’t eventually replace millions of programmers. Programmers won’t completely go away, but when companies get their LLMs set up, and figure out how to integrate ChatGPT into their systems, programmers, analysts, writers, and about 80% of the careers on the planet are going to be seriously impacted.
Let us know if you ever deploy it!
You missed shiny.
