You are asking a silly question. Jeeze, maybe it isn't the best comparison, maybe I should have been more specific. The point you are asking about in no way affects my larger point so who cares. You harping on it is just weird.

What percentage of software projects are complete disasters? In spite of being staffed almost entirely by people with CS degrees? 50%? 60%? I guess that is because it is so easy? Whether from a societal POV they need to be that compl

Look past trees, see forest. Let go of your desire to shit on developers and the cheap satisfaction you get from doing so.

What does their predatory nature have to do with complexity?

Also, consider that a half-way complex piece of software (from our outside POV) is enormously more complex than your average IC, vehicle (if you exclude the mountain of software controlling it), or general "engineering" projec

Good god, please stop this misguided snarkiness. Comparing software engineering (or 99.99% of EE, ME, CE, etc) to the web telescope, then haughtily using that comparison as a way to dismiss the entire industry as not really being engineeri

If they worked a little on making those things quieter, they'd be like 10X more creepy by virtue of being 10X closer to crossing the uncanny valley. When you make a robotic arm that is so closely modeled after a human arm, isn't

>>> So if in one population you get 458 deaths from Covid compared to 57,263 from all other causes and in the other population you get 38,964 from covid compared to 65,170 from all other causes, we can immediately tell that one pop

This data needs to be framed against the % of the population that was vaccinated at the time they contracted the virus, right? Otherwise, for all we know, the vaccine could actually increase mortality if the % vaccinated was smaller than

You are making a ton of assumptions about what is driving this decision.

by eagsalazar2 5y ago
Why? As a private business I can exclude you for many reasons. If I believe you pose a health risk to me, and I demand you prove you've been vaccinated, that's my choice and it is your choice to take your business elsewhere. I

It is an empty slogan coming from you. You apply it so nonsensically here that it is obvious you care more about chest pounding faux-nationalism than the true meaning of those words. Consider the fact that right now in the US, no one is

Throwing out the baby with the bathwater, because the bathwater (after careful searching) was found to have some impurity, is itself a tactic for pushing an agenda, not a fair and rational response. You can't just say "added epla

Can you provide a link to an article you feel is especially illustrative of this problem?

That's just one factor and while it may be true, do you really think that is more important that dramatically higher overall developer velocity and superior developer workflow, both of which contribute to more feature refinement, few

There is a big difference between "forcing" people and requiring vaccines to access certain types of services. Kids in the US do not have to be vaccinated unless they want to participate in govt funded services in which they woul

That isn't their argument. They are arguing that any results that differ from their own ratings are false by definition because it is duplicative. If fakespot always gave the identical ratings, they'd have to make a different ar

Thanks for asking. We follow a highly collaborative and opinionated approach where subbing our work, especially offshore, doesn't make sense for us.

I'm not sure I'd agree that when React took over, Angular was a perfectly fine framework. I mean, what happened with React was actually very unusual and remains very unusual. It took over. There is this popular and snarky notio
