That’s the way. I’ve been programming for nigh on four decades, and it’s almost a daily occurrence with junior devs going to stack overflow or chatGPT to solve an issue instead of just searching the code where nine times out of ten the problem (or a very similar one) is already solved.

Laying off a lot of people does wonders for the end of year report…
I started a new job some months back, and my boss straight up told us in a team meeting “we’re not paying you to give 100% all the time, that’s not possible. We’re paying you for your average effort. Everyone has good days and bad, so don’t worry about it. Just do the job as good as you can on any given day and if we were right in hiring you, that will be enough.” Kind of blew my mind and confirmed I’d done the right thing signing with that company.
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
That was an interesting read, thank you!
Heh, haven’t seen the bash forkbomb in close to two decades… Thanks for the trip down memory lane! :)
An also a lot of middle-class western people. 1% of the world’s population is about 80 million people.
You’d have to go down to 0.001% to only target the ultra-wealthy.
Biggest problem with it is that it lies with the exact same confidence it tells the truth. Or, put another way, it’s confidently incorrect as often as it is confidently correct - and there’s no way to tell the difference unless you already know the answer.
I’ve always been partial to the phrase “the worst thing someone has experienced is the worst thing they’ve experienced”. Someone elses experiences never invalidates that.
I’ve always been partial to “sticks and stones may break my bones but words can really hurt me”.
Also why life on earth is dying off as well…
Well, it was Zippo lighter fluid, so I guess my second mistake was calling it “gasoline” 😉
Watch out with that, I did it for years but eventually had to stop because I got sore skin from the gasoline in the Zippo. And I quit smoking so didn’t need it any more 🙂
What a funny way to spell “shine on you crazy diamond” 😉
