I hated reading this buzzfeedy style (or apparently LinkedIn-style?) moron-vomit.
I shouldn't complain, just ask my nearest LLM to rewrite this article^W scribbling to a less obnoxious form of writing..
- Kiro 2y agoI liked it.
- Minor49er 2y agoI noticed this too, but I was confused because the calculator article was informative and interesting. It's entirely unlike the inept fluffy slop that gets posted to LinkedIn
- tonyedgecombe 2y agoI think it’s called broetry although perhaps the sentences are a little long for that.
- igravious 2y agoAgreed. And furthermore the content isn't as "wow, who'd a thunk it" as the author seems to think it is. I cannot be unusual in knowing that single and double precision floating point numbers just don't cut it for a lot of arithmetic tasks. Surely this is taught in every comp-sci course? And doesn't nearly everyone know the N ⊆ Z ⊆ Q ⊆ A ⊆ R ⊆ C hierarchy?, well nearly everyone doesn't but surely everyone who either decides to write a calculator app or is tasked with writing one ought to know this? The claim "A calculator app? Anyone could make that." is a patently ridiculous claim to me, anybody who would make such a claim is clearly ignorant of both software development and mathematics. Next article. "A text editor? Anyone could make that."
