If you don’t have access to Linux, MacOS is the closest commercially available option so it makes sense.

Also please take what I said lightly, I by no means want to bash Mac users and generalize them. It just has been my experience. I’m sure there are thousands of highly competent technical users who prefer Mac.

I think it’s on a case by case basis but having help desk ppl help you out and opening powershell and noodling without any concept of problem solving made me make this face once.

It probably goes both ways, I’m a dev and I assembled computers at 12 yo so I believe I have a lot of experience and knowledge when it comes to hardware. I’ve also written code for embedded platforms.

IT people in my pov can really come across as enthusiast consumers when it comes to their hardware knowledge.

“did you guys hear Nvidia has the new [marketing term] wow!” . Have you ever thought about what [marketing term] actually does past just reading the marketing announcement?

At the same time I swear to God devs who use macs have no idea how computers work at all and I mean EXCLUDING their skill as a dev. I’ve had them screen share to see what I imagine is a baby’s first day on a computer.

To close this rant: probably goes both ways

Just web, which is bullshit cause i literally work with like 3 OSs and 5 programming languages, ci cd. I just get thrown into a random project and come out with solutions. I told my manager my title should be software dev but he disagreed, shucks I guess.

Eh, not sure if this is true at all. I think the reality is that niche specialized roles are valuable (frontend expert) but you are not “hacking” your way in full stack unless you are a junior or just bad at development.

I don’t consider myself to be hacking anything I do, even things I’m not as strong in (ci cd) I pay full attention to documentation and examples before blinding coding or writing ci scripts

My manager gave me a talk about how I couldnt be intermediate because I don’t have enough years there. My friend intermediate is about pay and my YOE not about my tenure here (won’t be long till I quit)

They do according to can stats

I work full stack and even do dev operations and my title is not “full stack” and I believe the reason why is so HR can argue to pay me less.

Inb4 my company follows suit. Just like they want to with IT, AI, Cloud infrastructure (we own our stack almost entirely).

As a long time cs gamer I approve of this change but I warn ye regardless that there is no alternative or viable solution to actually stop cheaters right now.

And if you’ve only heard stories and don’t really experience cs (vac kind of does nothing)

Ive kept track of players for months/years who have not been banned. I find it strange that they eventually do get banned several months after cheating. It took one account nearly 2 years to get banned.

I hope that a clever solution comes out, a man can dream right ?

No!!! They’re useful because uhhmm uuhhhh uhmm uhhhbbh dndusfjduehrhrh

That AI code thumbnail is gonna give me an aneurysm

This is what I do: I use my browser to store all my randomly generated passwords. If I ever need them on my phone I either sync or go to my desktop and view the password and type it over.
