I’m my professional experience working with both, Java shops don’t blindly enforce this, but c# shops tend to.

Striving for loosely coupled classes is objectively a good thing. Using dogmatic enforcement of interfaces even for single implementors is a sledgehammer to pound a finishing nail.

Whoever is demanding every class be an implementation of an interface started thier career in C#, guaranteed.

Kids certainly have the capacity.

Windows 3.1 had some BASIC games that you could run. A snake game and one where monkeys threw bananas at each other. It was a great “fuck around and find out” platform. I could write simple programs from scratch well before 10, learning entirely through experimentation.

Technically a second is an arbitrary measure of a proprty cesium133. Now, anyways

And don’t call me Shirley.

I’d also like to see the chart if it was actually representative of the rich. Populate the chart with individuals reporting >2.5 million in income per year.

I think that’s fair comparison.

The difference was that investment followed realizable value for PCs. Or cell phones. Or iPods. Or “the cloud”. The horse and carriage were in a sane order.

The internet itself might be an even better comparison, with VC dumping money into anything without an understanding of how to get a return.

If ANYONE had reproducible guidance on how to get positive value out of these systems… they’d be booming like NVIDIA. It’s another “during the gold rush, sell shovels” model.

Raises an eyebrow that we’re not seeing it.

I think these companies are sitting, waiting, and praying for an emergent use-case to reveal itself. They’re spending money to be prepared to corner a market that as-of-yet doesn’t exist.

Not sure if it was Microsoft or my org but I was asked several times to stop using “bummer burt” in all my comms

Just wait until you find out what people with ADHD are prescribed

Sometimes.

In those cases, “there isn’t a yes/no answer to your question because…”

I ask my jrs simple yes/no questions all the time.

Did you open a PR? Does it pass the CI pipeline? Did you write a test for scenario X?

I’m here to help you, but my time is unfortunately limited. If it takes half of our available time just to drag out of you where you’re at we’re all worse off for it.

Statistical distributions suck, especially when we want a clear-cut cause-and-effect silver bullet. My only sister has two autistic sons, and my wife and I were 7 years older than she was when we had our son and he isn’t autistic (as far as we can tell thus far).

As a brother and uncle, I have incredible empathy for the desire and frustration to just get a clear answer on this. And I recognize these feeling however intense are orders of magnitude less than for a parent. It’s not like lead or asbestos or thaledimide or radiation.

Best we’ve got is a confluence of factors, not the least being family history knowing full well how bad diagnosis has been historically.

It’s so incredibly predatory to dump the science in the trash and just say “it was Tylenol all along”.

It’s probably more than just better diagnosis.

“Advanced Parental Age” has a significant body of work behind it, and people are having kids quite a bit older than they used to, because… you know… gestures broadly at how fucked up the world is

I did a wyze cam 3 yesterday too lol.

So far so good!

If this does what it says it’ll do, this is ABSOLUTELY the answer

Empathy doesn’t mean you’ll adjust your position. It just means you can RP as someone well enough to come away with an understanding from that person’s perspective.

You can be empathetic and once the exercise is over, still not budge in terms of your original assessment.

Empathy is dangerous to fascists. Everything they’re doing unravels if a population is good at it. It’s why they hate it so much. Don’t toss them a free W.

Why’s James cryin’?

Led Zeppelin - How the West Was Won

I’d heard many times from people who were old enough to see them live that it was a completely unique experience, describing how the band fed off the energy of the crowd.

Didn’t fully comprehend the magnitude of that truth until I heard that live album. I’ve heard other live albums from other artists where it was performed roughly the same as the studio version with the further addition of a cheering crowd. This was a completely different animal.

How The West Was Won really showcased how malleable a work is in the hands of truly talented artists.

As others have said, the mailbox and booby-trap laws aren’t the same thing.

Setting aside basic morality for a second, and strictly from a societal organizational perspective of which is the purpose of law, they’re incompatible with the reality of society.

For starters, there is literally nowhere you can put one that society has agreed is off limits in all circumstances forever, which is important because the nature of a trap is that they can survive longer than whoever set it.

Consider your neighbor witnesses you clutch your chest and collapse in your home so they call 911, and the first responders get blasted by a tripwire shotgun. Consider you get hit by a car and die, and your next of kin come to gather your belongings and meet the same fate. Consider you booby trap a basement closet, get dimentia, and your homecare worker gets blasted because you forgot you even did that when you were young and insane rather than merely old and demented.

By nature of a booby trap, you can’t foresee who will trip it or why. You’ve surrendered contextual judgement. It strictly CAN NOT be proportional.
