Technically, it's trivially true. Of course a software engineer has at some point "thought about user registration and authentication."
I presume that's what it's going for, but all in this is one of the worst promotional blog posts I've ever read.
- mfoy_ 11y agoI was being generous and assuming they meant "every time a user logs in, a software engineer thinks about security" because the alternative is literally meaningless. To elaborate, statements like "every time you shake hands with someone, a volcano has erupted" are equally, trivially, true. They just don't mean anything-- anything at all. There exists some volcano which has erupted. Therefore any time you shake hands with someone, eat a meal, go to sleep, push a button, etc... that statement is still true, just like it was and would be with or without your entire existence. At which point you're just saying words to hit some word count or something. Or maybe allude to some unstated connection... ?
