yeah i wish it was a requirement that you're nerdy enough to build your own computer or at least be able to install an OS before joining SWE industry. the non-nerds are too political and can't figure out basic shit.

i hate that our profession has been overtaken by that snake oil. my goal is to some day fill my own development company with developers smart enough to see through that bullshit and reject it.

no leetcode interviews, no take home tests, no bullshit. what a dream. now if i could just stop getting scammed by clients who don’t pay...

i wonder if it would have made the trip without that crashing. not that it matters much, but wow. how insanely stupid!

yep, same here except i think power-source makes a slight difference to the degree of cyborginess. maybe we need a scale. maybe something like:

  1. caveman with tools, self-powered
  2. ancient person using naturalistic propulsion methods (wind, animals) for vehicles (ships, chariots) etc
  3. engine (steam, electric, gas) powered entities (vehicles, factories, aircraft)
  4. direct nervous system integration for thought-based control
  5. shared consciousness

Neil Harbisson is the world’s first officially recognised human cyborg

i was trying to find a link to Apache's chat server that we used to power cruise ship chat applications w/out internet. i didn't find it but this list i found has some neat projects listed, so i thought i would share that at least: https://medevel.com/26-os-chat-servers/ (no affiliation)
