We've figured that out, but certain members of society decided that extracting wealth through protectionist zoning/building code behavior is much, much more lucrative.

Nothing will ever be funnier than the quote from that Java language designer guy, "Java Serialization is a full employment act for security engineers"

Clean coders, PR reviewers, and architecture astronauts deliver astonishingly useless code at incredibly slow rates. Features are everything. Don't give me that bullshit about refactoring and generifying and DRY and TDD.

The behavior wouldn't exist if the system didn't so heavily incentivize it. How many pizza place owners do you know with a net worth of $10,000,000 or higher, vs how many pizza place owners have ever tried?

Nice! In the US that still happens a fair amount too but I think as the industry has developed it has become much more rare than before. Athe keyword would be "corp to corp" employment, where you as the programmer either have an L

Thanks for your feedback on this :) In the USA, if some big and usually "non tech" company like McDonalds or T-Mobile wants to staff a whole project with programmers, they will usually have a relationship with someone like Infosys

How does one get inbound/outbound leads for hourly or project work from companies that aren't scammers or tirekickers?

Lmfaooooo..... to everyone else reading, cpp programs are indeed successful, but they are successful in spite of cpp, not because of it, is my assertion. It is increasingly rare to find major applications using the newest cpp features, be

The language committee only makes it harder and more astronauty every year. How many Unreal Engine developers from 2007-2013 understand CPP20/23?

Hilariously incorrect take. Zero CPP in the Linux kernel. Torvalds openly hates CPP. EDIT: thank you for your well wishes though :)

OpenGL is not so bad because the API is quite stable. WebGL in particular is great because there's literally zero setup you need to do for executing it. Integrating with Linux/Windows display surfaces is disgusting however. KMSDRM

C++ is written by 99% professional architecture astronauts who do fuck all in terms of valuable software. I will die on this hill.

Entirely 100% true. I can count on one hand the times I've said "wow, this documentation was written by someone who cared". Threejs is a good example here, but even then it is subject to API rot and needless reference chasing

You actually legitimately do. Real opinions or acting on them would get you fired.

Why can't existing American businesses invest in these individuals while they live abroad, and then the US government can tax the profits the investors make? Why must it be that they must live here, taking desk jobs and barista jobs fr

That is a reasonable counter argument, however I would argue that that is no longer a benefit for the American public. Similar to how our country effectively relocated our entire manufacturing sector to the entire world (to externalize the

Retail investors can't purchase shares of SpaceX. Nearly anyone on Earth can purchase shares of Google and Tesla, and we all benefit from the knock on effects of their technology. And yet only Americans have to compete for housing and

Here's what I propose: 1) All countries are free to come up with as strict or as loose immigration/tourist visa requirements as they like. 2) Companies can source remote labor from anywhere with zero government overhead. 3) Compan

I agree and appreciate that, but I would venture a guess that most of the nearest ones to us likely don't have "earth-like" planets, even accounting for the bias in our viewing capabilities you described. The moons, however!

In this context, it's sad how long it takes light to travel. Even if we invented some magical microcraft that can travel at 25% of the speed of light so that it can go make observations up close of other solar systems, it would still t

Just have a text config file that comes in a variety of preconfigured flavors ("x mode", "y mode"...) and then also offer a "make your own config" option too. Most of the time, if I'm working in blender fo
