When Brexit occurred, I told Boyfriend that two words / phrases would now become overused: “Unprecedented” and “Never before in Recorded History”. After Corvid19, I predict that Government’s / Big Business / Billionaires will suddenly love saying “Unsustainable”

🌸 Stereotypes are dumb 🌸 I worked with a dev at a prev. company. He had a CS degree, 1 yoe, and was a Python dev. High performer. ... and he could only use a GUI. No experience w/ a shell. He couldn't: • make or change directories • edit files • use git at all Say whaaaat? We were pairing on Zoom and I asked him to make a new directory for a project. He opened up Finder. I asked him if he could use the terminal, and he said "no, usually I do it on the computer or in IntelliJ". So I helped him without shaming him and listed out practical "why's" for why the terminal is a clutch thing to learn. After that pairing sesh, he knew what he didn't know and the importance of it. By the time I left that job, he was confident on the command line and even more productive. He could use vim at a basic level. 🎉 However, I was embarrassed by my inner monologue! See, my gut reaction (and maybe yours if you're reading this) had been: • "kids these days" • "didn't he go to, like, a GOOD university?" • "what do schools even teach?!" Finally it hit me, "Despite this gap, he's the most productive person on the team!" That last point was what stuck. Closing thoughts: 1. Stereotypes are dumb. Not all {insert term} developers are terminal wizards. 2. Sometimes I encounter developers who have gaps in their knowledge, it doesn't mean they're not good at their jobs. 3. (Productivity + curiosity) > existing knowledge. 4. Teach kindly, without assumptions. Random links I've recommended to ppl: • Vim + Shell help: Cheatsheets from @devhints (free) • VSCode: @vscodepro (paid 34$, I learned a lot) • Everything else: @roadmapsh (free)

LibraryThing is currently offline or, at best, slow. We are suffering a Distributed Denial of Service attack—basically, thousands of hacked machines hitting us far harder than our infrastructure can handle.

people absolutely can and should make art other people hate. make ugly art, depraved art, art that speaks to approximately three people and is nonsense to everyone else
