@SamaHoole They believe farmers and ranchers and basically anyone who's endeavor isn't "knowledge work" are less than and unintelligent.

Activist: "Every cow adds carbon to the atmosphere." Farmer: "Only if the total number of cows is increasing." Activist: "What?" Farmer: "Stable populations are carbon neutral. Methane breaks down in twelve years back to CO2. Same CO2 the grass absorbed last year." Activist: "But it's still emissions..." Farmer: "It's a cycle. Carbon goes: grass to cow to methane to CO2 to grass. Round and round." Activist: "That's not how it works." Farmer: "That's exactly how the biogenic carbon cycle works." Activist: "I've never heard of that." Farmer: "Because admitting ruminants are climate neutral doesn't sell plant-based products." Activist: "You're making this up." Farmer: "Published research. Look up 'biogenic carbon cycle.' I'll wait."

@ThePrimeagen @michaelstolarz Through 2015? I wish. I couldn't get promoted and ultimately ended up leaving a job in large part because I refused to write tests simply to meet the mark and pointed out that the teams who met the mark were literally testing nothing. There was no confidence gain, just a metric.

so you are one of the 3 1. intentionally not trying to understand things 2. have no idea what 2010-2015 professional web 100% test coverage madness was like 3. something else that is neither ignorant or intentional misinterpreting ill pretend 3 for kindness sake. 100% test coverage has and always will lead to a bunch of gamified tests that are breaking the blackbox testing contract and secretly testing implementation of single if statements somewhere deep within your code. its a source of perennial problems. every change comes with many borked unit tests and it becomes very difficult to distinguished between broken because of internal implementation details change and broken because of some real bug lastly, when you ask claude to do this, they will inevitably start adding testing data and leaking abstractions leading to significantly more brittle changes. Yes, this is a bad idea Please dont think that SOTA == savior

@CodeByNZ I use vcs tools in ide's for some visual tasks. But I learned to use git well from the terminal specifically because the integrations have burned me in the past. The harder it is to do with git, the less I trust an ide integration.

When VS Code already has the Source Control feature, why do developers still use Git commands in the terminal for pushing, committing, or cloning repositories? 👀

@Legal_Fil It's just global climate change. More storms? Climate change. Fewer storms? Climate change. Same number, stronger, weaker, etc? Climate change. Because the models...

@asmah2107 It depends on who my employer is. If they care more about buzzwords than working systems, I'd deploy redis caches in every region and scale everything as far as I possibly could and then ask the frontend team to add animation to make the page seem engaging while they wait.

Quick question : You have 50 microservices, each with its own API. The frontend team is losing their mind. To render a single page, they make 10+ network calls. The app is sluggish. Users are complaining. How do you fix this ?

@manicblase @FenixAmmunition That's the first thing I thought of. If an attacker gets to the point where they discover this, what will they do in response. Obviously I wish this on no one, but will women just be murdered then?

@FenixAmmunition It's hidden, so they have to endure the assault until it's discovered and then they have to endure the subsequent rage. They could just preempt all of this with the legalization of defensive weapons, but that's too simple a solution.

@ThePrimeagen Really though, I'd probably use something like `const MAX_SOMETHING_VALUE = 999999999;`.

@ThePrimeagen Why do that when you could have a constant like `const NINE_HUNDRED_NINETY_NINE_MILLION_NINE_HUNDRED_NINETY_NINE_THOUSAND_NINE_HUNDRED_NINETY_NINE = 999999999;`?

@Alphafox78 He's right, but you also have to ensure your hands are very clear and minimal contact with the eating surface is made.

@AnnaGorisch It makes a claim. I think it's a claim that has absolutely no data behind it. She's already the 2nd lady. Remember that it was the left who complained about Sarah Palin's wardrobe cost, not the right. We aren't the ones who care about these things.
