Is anyone else in this thread surprised people weren’t using OpenJDK this whole time?

Both can be true?

Lol whoever downvoted this must be upset with Stackoverflow selling their data to train AI. Or the mod protests. Or maybe the job board shutting down? Or possibly the licensing change… Actually yea, I can see why someone downvoted this.

Sure, but if it happened I’d see a screenshot of the job posting, not someone who tweeted about totally seeing it

I mean that’s just the problem with C++. There’s 17 different ways to do things, 2 are always wrong, 14 are contextual, and 1 is reserved for super special cases

At my first job after university, we did releases every Friday evening. From 3-5pm, all you would see in the Slack channel was a flurry of everyone committing straight to master (with a bunch of merge conflict commits between). Oh and then we’d release. Fun times.

Lies, if you actually did that you would know you need the --no-preserve-root flag

Jeez are captions that bad for you? You can’t like, tune them out?

The new outdoor LED series is designed to provide creative new possibilities for customers and the Philips Urban LED 6000 Series boasts a remarkable 10,000 nits brightness and a 7680Hz refresh rate (note, refresh rates for LED are only measured in Hz), offering impressive visual performance for viewing distances of between 10-30 meters.

Article is worded badly. It’s the 10,000 nits brightness that makes it super visually “impressive” (keep in mind this is simply bright as heck to catch the corner of your eye through the smog). The refresh rate is still crazy high, I have no idea why they would want that

Edit: nevermind, author doubled down:

While a typical refresh rate for a monitor might be 60Hz-240Hz, an outdoor display designed to be viewed from a distance needs to be much higher.

Using an IDE isn’t programming either

But I’ll definitely prefer hiring someone who does. Sure, you can code in Vi without plugins, but why? Leave your elitism at home. We have deadlines and money to make.

Edit: The discussions I’ve had about AI here on Lemmy and Hackernews have seriously made me consider asking whether or not the candidate uses AI tools as an interview question, with the only correct answer a variation of “Yes I do”.

Boomer seniors scared of new tools is why Oracle is still around. I don’t want any of those on my team.

One thing to also remember is 15 years ago there was a lot of anti-Linux marketing. To be fair, Linux sucked back then

Something about the little girl in purple shirt crying always gets to me. I think it triggers the memory of the tear-gassed “birthday girl” photo from 2019 Hong Kong

Nicholas Plot, an American StarCraft professional commentator who has lived in Korea for 15 years, said, "One of the things that surprised me when I first came here was work ethics. They almost collapsed from overwork but didn’t say anything. In an apartment in suburban Seoul, 15 to 16 game players trained in an environment similar to a PC room, using bunk beds, he said. “When there is a small ecosystem where everyone pushes each other to get better and better, Koreans completely dominate (the environment). At the same time, I had no choice but to think about the psychological slump it created,” he said.

This is reasonably accurate. Korea is very heavy on the grind. If you ever want to learn work ethics and how to have fun with the short amount of free time you get, this is the place.

Fair

For someone who jumped in defending potentially offended neurodivergent people, you seem quite close minded to the thought that they could be interpreting messages differently.

So for the third time, I will repeat myself: gentle round-about explanations delivered in a soft tone does not help deliver the message of bad behavior to many people. So please, if you want to help them instead of virtue signal, I recommend looking at it from their point of view, where despite “being told”, they don’t understand.

Lots of sysadmins are also overworked and burnt out by stupid requests too.

Again. So we’re perfectly clear, as someone with family members on the spectrum, some people do better with different methods of delivery. Some people will struggle to understand the severity of their actions unless it is spelt out and clear.

I’m not saying go around and insult people. You can tell by my parent comment I have good intentions. But to help fix the situation, everyone is providing their opinion with different delivery formats. The goal is for one of multiple of them to strike through to OP so that OP can improve.

Phrases like this or “stop being a weirdo” are aggressive, insulting

Yea, they should be. There’s certain actions that are unacceptable, and some people need it a bit harder to comprehend the wake up call

Right yea, I actually mean to say that “I agreed with the caveat of …”, but while furiously editing my comment I lost that
