A rockstar developer doesn’t churn out unmaintainable, by definition.

The number of people who think they are rockstar developers but clearly aren’t is probably close to the number of cover bands who see themselves as undiscovered rockstars.

I’ve worked with people like this, their best hope is to fail upwards into management.

The only way to know if you are competent coder is for other coders to tell you. If none are telling you, your imposter syndrome isn’t.

There are other signs as well but these aren’t taught in formal education. An example being the ability to recognize how your old code could be improved. The way requirements stack over time makes this a certainty in any product.

“Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.”

It would be easier to record than upload. Since upload requires at least a decode steps. Given the fleeting nature of existence how does one confirm the decoding? This also requires we create a simulated brain, which seems more difficult and resource intensive than forming a new biological brain remotely connected to your nervous system inputs.

Recording all inputs in real time and play them back across a blank nervous system will create an active copy. The inputs can be saved so they can be played back later in case of clone failure. As long as the inputs are record until the moment of death, the copy will be you minus the death so you wouldn’t be aware you’re a copy. Attach it to fresh body and off you go.

Failure mode would take your literal lifetime to reform your consciousness but what’s a couple decades to an immortal.

We already have the program to create new brains. It’s in our DNA. A true senior developer knows better than to try and replicate black box code that’s been executing fine. We don’t even understand consciousness enough to pretend we’re going to add new features so why waste the effort creating a parallel system of a black box.

Scheduled reboots of a black box system is common practice. Why pretend we’re capable of skipping steps.

I agree.

One can’t claim to love programming while calling the act of writing code being a code monkey. Whatever they actually love about the process may not exist in the industry.

I would suggest they explore alternative roles and perhaps alternative industries. They sound like they are new to the industry so their ability to land a senior role is likely to lead to different disappointments.

The best way to do something, often isn’t the best way to implement something. That’s why this is a senior role. The author does not appear to understand this concept and will be horribly disappointed when their perfect architecture is ignored by the realities of development.

And you’re obsessed with giant cocks. This is very interesting. A therapist could write a book on you.

Hating an operating system such that someone wouldn’t use it in exchange for a million dollars is quite the flex.

Congratulations! You’ve leveled up in the game of life.

Articles mentions 3 zero day bugs found this year.

Sounds like this one was short lived but is the most serious but requires being near an infected device or the attacker to be on the network.

Which given how mobile a mobile phone is, isn’t nothing.

C should show some overflow corruption of the problem graphic.

No, you made a statement. I asked a question. My question isn’t a troll since it has a clear yes or no answer.

An answer you’ve failed to provide.

No, jokes have structure. It could be sarcasm but it could as easily be trolling.

Are you doing that thing where you troll by saying something really stupid and wait for others to correct you?

No one can enter the vehicle because this is a collision. The vehicle automatically moves away from anyone that approaches it.

The bosses will figure it out when they never receive a working product.

And those juniors don’t realize they’ve set themselves up to be forever-juniors since they aren’t learning how to do the basics themselves.

How is that a niche api question? That’s a public api that is scraped up.

It’s also a terrible way to ask the question. It’s how a clueless newb asks questions. Anyone hoping to help needs to at least know: What are you attempting to use the end point for and What results are you receiving vs expecting?

Agreed.

Also, HTML is only meant to be read by a browser’s interpreter which has no problem keeping track of variable names.
