Nah never do that. The curve brings trig complexity into the equation. Bananas are used to measure curvy things. Like wheels, roads, and boobs.

An independent contractor IS employed. They’re employed by themselves. Self-employed. So if you’re doing work for them, you are employed as an independent contractor doing work for them.

I think it’s pretty clear what they mean. Could have just said “you’ll be paid as a contractor and receive the relevant tax forms for your country” tho

Correct!!

Everyone loves to whine about the system when a corner case hits, but they all have corner cases. You have to pick your poison.

Yeah surprised it hasn’t. Rust Foundation went as far as abandoning their X account a long time ago.

Bold assumption on reader demographic! My kids would want the dispensary sale, not me.

Why Democracy is Mathematically Impossible

Yet this post is about how it does work that way. There have always been pump and dumps.

Perhaps marketing and communications has advanced so much that everyone hears about everything and viral pump and dump stuff is far easier to spread.

Yeah that’s how capitalism works. Innovation driven by greed ultimately advances everyone.

This is how I felt when at the hospital during a years long battle with addiction. The hospital was my safe space.

I’ve been a pro software engineer for 30 years.

Colleges are doing a horrible job at relevant skill sets for sure. But also, much of the time what I’m seeking is passion for the field. In today’s world, kids with passion learn everything themselves in their teens and go directly to the workforce because they’d learn nothing at college. College became a place to go if you can’t figure it out yourself, which also means you lack the passion, hence you’re really not a great hire for a small company.

I currently never hire college grads anymore unless they’re older.

Things are different at enterprises. They need so many people that the passion requirement is dropped and you end up with tech leads who are passionate leading armies of worker bees who need constant oversight. This also works but has its own inefficiencies far outside the scope of this comment lol.

That’s how I see the state of the industry. People need to follow passion, not money. Unfortunately the incentives are misaligned by society in general. Not sure how to fix the value problem. For instance, teachers and childcare should be far more expensive and as such pay more. It’s a super heavy regulated sector tho, which is part of the problem.

But I digress. College for a general software engineering job is a complete waste.

That’s what they want. Smaller fed, more state level.

talked about what’s really happening

If you ask me about my country the information and opinion you get will be very different from asking someone else. It doesn’t reveal a truth.

They propose merit based inclusion.

Quick little script I run as a cron job. Script was authored by Claude Code. I’m not home right now but any llm can probably get you 95% of the way there. Remind me in a couple days if you don’t get something. Sorry I’m traveling right now

Edit: some details… it uses the gitea api repos/migrate endpoint after getting a list of repos from the github api. Super simple.

You could prob do in real-time with some webhooks but I don’t need anything like that. I just need a one time migration.

Also, mine doesn’t keep in sync with the upstream yet. I need another process to do that.

I do this. I have an instance of gitea running internally that mirrors any repo I have on github. Super nice for archiving things of importance or even as a bookmark. Sometimes I do it because of fear of censorship like dcma and stuff for software I use.

I’m simply saying that I’m not paying for access to the code. I’m paying for access to the high performance magic pattern machine.

I can and have browsed code all day for 35 years. Magic pattern machine is worth paying for to save time.

To be clear, stackoverflow and similar sites have also been worth paying for. Now this is the latest thing worth paying for.

I understand you have ethical concerns. But that doesn’t negate the usefulness of magic pattern machine.

It feels so wrong that people are paying to get access to code

We pay for access to a high performance magic pattern machine. Not for direct access to code, which we could search ourselves if we wanted.

Wtf is the attitude? They asked legit questions…
