This is the “you’re more productive at the office” crowd

You cherry picked his argument and left out the rest where he states China’s as cheaper standards of environmental “friendliness”

• You will spend your entire career chasing trends.

Depends on the language, that’s mostly a JavaScript/typescript issue.

• The market is volatile. People are constantly getting abruptly laid off. SD has never been very stable, so you should plan on getting a new job every few years.

Depends on the country, where I’m from there has been very few layoffs.

• Software companies are constantly looking for ways to make SD easier. As a result, your value will decrease over time, in preference for bootcampers and 2 year degree graduates.

Not sure what to say, I haven’t felt my value decrease. All I see are bubbles saying they will replace me… and then they burst.

Nobody listens to developers. Your manager’s beliefs about SD come entirely from consultants, magazines, and Elon Musk tweets.

Agree but that’s more of an engineering wide problem, specially when you get managers with very few engineering experience. Take the Apollo landings as an opposite example: great managers that were great engineers.

• Nobody cares about quality software. If you take the time to make your code efficient and lightweight, all your manager sees is you taking longer to make something than your peers. After all, we can just raise hardware requirements if the software is slow.

This is a bit too generic to argue against. You can get that in electrical engineering no? If you take more time designing that PCB because you want to better place the components to improve heat dissipation, will your manager care in the end?

Kind of. I agree partly. My mother used to knit winter clothes, for free, for some institutions and she wasn’t the one delivering them. They never knew who she was, and she didn’t bother.

Can you explain how a booster that flew 23 times is a loss when no other companies are doing it? I don’t like Musk but people need to separate their views of him from SpaceX

I don’t believe for a single instance that what he says is going to happen, this is just a play for funding… But if it were to happen I’m pretty sure most companies would hire anything that moves for those jobs. You have many examples of companies offloading essential parts of their products externally.

I’ve also seen companies hiring tourism graduates (et al non engineering related) giving them a 3/4 week programming course, slapping a “software engineer” sticker on them and off they are to work on products they have no experience to work on. Then it’s up to senior engineers to handle all that crap.

So you’re an asshole that also likes attention and confrontation

I can’t understand Logseq, even though it seems appealing. I haven’t gone too deep yet but to me it feels weird that they say it’s simple and then their documentation is confusing and full of videos explaining how it works. That seems far from simple.

That’s because you are illiterate in the matter and want to criticize spacex for the sake of it.Unfortunately there is no current “standard” for space suits.

And that’s why we have the EU telling apple and their fanboys to eat shit and use USB-C :) without these legislators we get the chaos you mention

For consumer products I don’t agree with enforcing it through the beginning though as it might hinder innovation. But once you have a few working cases you enforce the better one

Sorry I’m not very eloquent and failed to explain myself:

What I see is that the requested “versions” don’t match when the request is made through jellyseer vs when made directly from one of the Arr.

I first noticed this when requesting through jellyseer and I’d see a file with very few peers. Then I’d do an interactive search in the respective Arr (by hand) and there were much better candidates

I’ll recheck but I think I have updated profiles

I’ll use this topic to ask a question about jellyseer if you don’t mind.

I have jellyfin, jellyseer and arr stack for my Linux ISOs. The issue is when one someone requests an ISO from jellyseer it never is the best choice in terms of peers. I can check this by doing interactive search on one of arr and seeing there was a better choice for the quality I setup. Perhaps I have some misconfiguration?

I mean I get their feelings. Netflix et Al started with reasonable prices and then the greedy fuck heads raised the prices, so I bet Reddit would do it as well.

The truth is in the better days of Reddit I would’ve paid 2 or 3 dollars to access Reddit if that helped maintain it sustainable and if some of that money reverted to mods. Now? Reddit can burn

I’m a big fan of what they are achieving, but if they want free labour they can just eat shit

This is the type of argument I expect to see on Facebook by their mostly uneducated crowds. But here on Lemmy? I thought we were a bit better than that and more rational…

These are completely independent scenarios, with different funding streams, with different problems, solutions and so on.

Gotta love user reported bugs. I had one that reported a product of ours crashed only on Mondays. We spent a total of 5 minutes thinking of a cause and appointed customer support for a Friday morning. Lo and behold the app still crashed.

In this case the app only crashed on Mondays… because that’s when this user actually used the application
