DeVault has some decent opinions. This is one of them. I’m glad to see you actually read the thing in the the end, even if it was only after your initial judgement.

boonhet@lemm.eeto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•This will be *really* funny, until you remember 99% of current super hyped AI stuff is running on Python1·2 months agoPython itself might not be, but all the AI shit runs on GPUs so it’s CUDA or OpenCL or whatever underneath
That’s why they call us backend developers!
Brb changing a million libraries on npm to use padStart instead of left-pad and removing the dependency
The fact that the div center search needs a year on it got me lol
Loving my nearly frontend free development life. I use Stackoverflow or Google maybe 2-3 times a month these days, not sure if I qualify for the upper row :(
Last company I worked for and now contract for, explicitly set out to hire promising juniors over seniors. Reason being, they had to fire a guy with nearly a decade of experience because he was completely unable to adapt and learn new things, so his experience was all doing the same stuff over and over again.
A small company that has cash reserves will absolutely hire a bright grad who can hold a conversation in the interview, only trouble is the ratio between candidates and job openings.
It should be in the standard library anyway. Why the hell is it not?!
I mean yeah, I can write my own function to do the same thing and probably I’ve done it at some point in some coding exercise as a beginner, but this seems like such a common thing to use, it should be in the standard library of any sane language.
I love how this is actually an example of progress. These days, ML can be used for this kinda thing and it’s not too bad at it even.
