IMO most “flashy” frameworks betray the principle of high cohesion. Importing a time library to handle timezones is a great idea. Importing a math library to calculate derivatives is common sense for good reason. But huge frameworks that change the entire way a language is written are ridiculous. I’m looking at you, Vue and Tailwind. I usually see these sorts of frameworks used by people who aren’t qualified programmers and who don’t know software architectures or best practices. In other words, the kinds of people who get promoted to management positions and tell us what frameworks to use.

(Typescript is awesome though)

No, I’m not implying that, because that’s ridiculous.

Ah yes, the anti weird test. That’s how you get all of the autistic people and POCs out of the recruitment pool.

I think all three of the people replying to you are wrong. They all think you’re having trouble finding a project you want to work on. But I think you’re saying you struggle to understand how the logic of a program fits together into accomplishing anything.

I think you should follow one of these lessons to produce some example code, and then use the debugger to watch it function line by line.

Primary and secondary school math is mostly arithmetic and memorisation. It’s not until late high school and university when you get to do real math, which is a study of logic and proofs. If you were horrible at math in school, you might still have the makings of a great mathematician.

A vevalemma. Vevaios is Greek for certain.

Vue sucks. A pretty graphic of a CGI robot convincing untrained programmers to merge their web files and produce unreadable garbage as the output file.

And since this is the UK we’re talking about, you know they’re gonna use that data to track who’s trans and persecute them

That’s what I said, and they said no

No, I’ve been in this situation as a victim. My bike was stolen and they said it would take hours to search the CCTV. I told them about binary search, they didn’t understand.

More police wouldn’t cost more money if they stopped buying tanks.

I was in exactly this situation. My bike was stolen, there was CCTV, they said it would take hours to go through the time during which it was stolen.

I’m dronegender

These demons don’t seem very swarmy, I don’t think I’ll get gender euphoria from playing them.

See, the thing is, a lot of these women will not agree to speak at your conference if you’re a total creep.

Everyone remember to downvote ads

And the criteria for which bodies are considered professional can often come down to government or capitalism, both of which are very flawed. It should come as no surprise that software developers, who tend to be anarchists(see: the existence of FOSS), are distrustful of statist and capitalist regulatory bodies.

The big problem in your code is that the function name isn’t descriptive. If I’m 500 lines down seeing this function called, how do I know what you’re trying to do? I’m going to have to scroll up 500 lines to find out. The function name should be descriptive.

Fun fact: car emissions cause allergies
