lol so you defend that which you do not even use and that which you do not undertand? What a joke…
My hatred is anything but blind, and you calling it such is sealioning beyond belief. I love your hypocrisy… An Apple user without even using Apple products… Truly, your lot in life is more dreary than you could ever admit.
Agile SHOULD have a lot of the things ‘traditional’ management looks for! Though so many, including many college teachers I’ve heard, think of it way too strictly.
It’s just the time scale shrinks as necessary for specific deliverable goals instead of the whole product… instead of having a design for the whole thing from top to bottom, you start with a good overview and implement general arch to service what load you’ll need. Then you break down the tasks, and solve the problems more and more and yadda yadda…
IMO, the people that think Agile Development means only implement the bare minimum … are part of the complete fucking idiot portion of the industry.
Fuck man, why don’t more ethical-ish devs join to make stuff? What’s the missing link on top of easy sharing like FOSS kinda’ already has?
Obviously programming is a bit niche, but fuck… how can ethical programmers come together to survive under capitalism? Sure, profit sharing and coops aren’t bad, but something of a cultural nexus is missing in this space it feels…
The result in the end should be an organized series of events, a process, that takes or produces data. The data can be anything from a single number in a calculator, to a text message, to your entire social profile. The process can be anything from basic math, to advanced math (i.e. machine learning, rendering, cryptography, etc), to performing simple operations on that data like shuffling that data somewhere else.
These processes are stacked on top of each other and utilized with basic logic (if, else, loops, scope, etc) and combined together with a myriad of programming patterns and algorithms, to produce higher and higher orders of complexity, that eventually solve a real-world problem.
The result is an ever increasing complexity of useful tools and processes that can either solve specific problems directly or at least provide discovery for other useful tools and processes that might.
It’s translating higher order problems from something understandable at the task level all the way down until a piece of specialized rock that only understands on and off can eventually spit out a meaningful result.
ok ok electrical engineers get the claim for the last sentence, and plenty of the real-world complexity, but hopefully it illustrates my point that ‘nothing’ is … just wrong. We cannot discount the absolute importance of abstract things. Everything from “imaginary” numbers to completely abstract things like philosophy have real- world consequences. If programming produces nothing, then MOST jobs that aren’t manual labor produce nothing.
The new Naked Gun, actually. The idea falls in to the same FUCK NO camp as every other god damn nostalgia grab from Hollywood in recent years. The plot is stupid, even compared to some of the old Leslie Nielsen movies that worked the plot developments in to jokes a bit better and naturally had more of their own humor than references … buuuuut, the execution still had me straight up laughing out loud at quite a lot of it.
Really proving how intelligent Apple fans are with that reading comprehension… The argument referenced there is obviously referencing the arguments you brought up elsewhere on the internet between Apple fans and other fans.
It’s not out of nowhere. This is a topic about how people maybe should not give Apple money if they don’t want to support a corporation that will bow to fascists.
How stupid and captured their dumbass fans are is DIRECTLY related to how easy it’d be to convince them to not keep throwing money at Apple.
The fact you cannot even follow a basic conversation is the only pathetic thing here.
You’re right, they shouldn’t be stressing either resource. Though my point was that referencing how much RAM is in the system is a bit silly when referring to a CPU being pinned at 100%. There is a HUGE swathe of CPUs with an even bigger range of performance that are all sold in 32GB systems.
I’m positive the low end of that scale could be rightfully pinned at 100% for certain common tasks.
Exactly. I don’t know why I’m being downvoted for describing the thing we all agree happens…
I don’t blame the students for not being seasoned professionals. I clearly blame the executives that constantly replace seasoned engineers with fresh hires they don’t have to pay as much.
Then everyone surprise pikachu faces when crap is the result… Functionally idiots is absolutely correct for the reality we’re all staring at. I am directly part of this industry, so this is more meant as honest retrospective than baseless namecalling. What happens these days is idiotry.
Probably because all the dummies are finally realizing it’s a fucking stupid slogan that’s constantly being misinterpreted from what it’s supposed to mean. lol (as if the dummies even realize it has a more logical interpretation…)
Now if only they would complete the maturation process and realize all of the tech bro bullshit runs counter to good engineering or business…

Microsoft might prove that one wrong if they keep enshittifying Windows.
lol you’re just plain wrong on that. Apple fans these days are like you: They make fun of everyone outside of their group instead of the products themselves, because you all understand you won’t ever be winning an objective argument.
Exactly.
It’s like the Golden Rule version of the Paradox of Tolerance. If someone would demonstrably never extend you the courtesy, then you should have no obligation to extend said courtesy first.
Only a fool attempts to welcome an invading army in.
No. No it doesn’t, ALL human-like behavior stems from its training data … that comes from humans.
Well, it’s also stupid to use RAM size as an indicator of a machines CPU load capability…
Definitely sending off some tech illiterate vibes.
Edison was DEFINITELY not unique or new in how he was a shithead looking for money more than inventing useful things… Like, at all.
Yes, if you factor in the source of disposable culture: capitalism.
“Move fast and break things” is the software equivalent of focusing solely on quarterly profits.
Definitely part of it. The other part is soooo many companies hire shit idiots out of college. Sure, they have a degree, but they’ve barely understood the concept of deep logic for four years in many cases, and virtually zero experience with ANY major framework or library.
Then, dumb management puts them on tasks they’re not qualified for, add on that Agile development means “don’t solve any problem you don’t have to” for some fools, and… the result is the entire industry becomes full of functionally idiots.
It’s the same problem with late-stage capitalism… Executives focus on money over longevity and the economy becomes way more tumultuous. The industry focuses way too hard on “move fast and break things” than making quality, and … here we are, discussing how the industry has become shit.
No, they’re pointing out the chilling effect of shitting on the topic.
You’re the kind of fuckwit that would say Chris Hansen does no good against predators because he’s one guy doing a small set of stings… You’re the kind of guy who’d shit on a compromise policy that’s otherwise still a step in the right direction. You’re the kind of guy to make good the enemy of great.
and you have the gall to use insults when YOU are the one committing the social faux pas…
Pathetic. If you’re going to point out flaws, be constructive with it. Otherwise it is still on YOU if someone assumes negative intent from unconstructive criticism.
Not all advertising is equal. Yes, increasing awareness pays off.
That doesn’t mean your product putting a one minute ad up on YouTube that gets pasted in front of a 10 second cat video will have a positive response.
