I see this meh-meh come up occasionally, and I'm always amused because designers are constantly looking at the competition and adjusting to suit. Why do you think all sebtites look the same?

Fuck, if I was doing ecommerce on salesforce commerce cloud, I would hate programing too. The plus side is that you have something on the resume now. That makes a huge difference in your job prospects now. Its not the hottest market, but you do have a way to pay the bills so you can take some time. Just start applying again, is my advice

whoa, something is up here. Check the chip breaker and tool speed, you shouldn't be getting those curls with steel

Scare pieces like this are created by people who have no actual understanding of software.

Software is the automation of conceptual tasks. Some of these, like taxes or text editing, were fairly procedural and automated early. Others, like identifying birds or deepfaking celebreties, are dificult and were done later.

Creating software is another conceptual task, and it might be possiple to automate it. But once we have automated creating software, automating any other task becomes trivial as well.

If this ever comes to pass, there are no safe majors.

This statement confuses me

One of our right-wing parties has figured out that most people are not as right-wing as it is, but it can still win if only the most extreme people vote. So they try to make voting more difficult even. The opposite of compulsory

Without getting in to the prices at all, there is something to be said for focus. The diner throws together great food as long as great is "salty and fried", but when it comes to more complex stuff, they tend to fall down. The large menu means the time and affort to get expert at each dish is much higher, and with any turnover at all just can't happen. Mom and pop diners can get great at their specialties, but chain diners al_ost always resort to reheating frozen product because of their large menus

Seconding this. I'n interested in stuff I can buy, not stuff I have to hunt for. Communitieslike this are great because we can help people skip hunting through the sea of crap.

If the advise is "hunt for this thing that stopped being made in 1962", for ne that defeats the purpose.

This is going to end well

Both styles have advantages and disadvantages. Fully procedural code actually breaks down in readability after a certain length, some poeple suggest 100 or maybe 200 lines, depending on how much is going on in the function.

Blanket maxims tend to to have large spaces where they don't apply.

Additionally, the place where the code on the right is more likely to cause bugs and maintainability issues is the mutation of the pizza argument in the functions. Argument mutation is important for execution time and memory performance, but is also a strong source of bugs, and should be considered carefully in each situation. We don't know what the requirements for this code are, but in general we should recomend against universal use of argument mutation (and mutability in general).

This dicotomy was always bullshit. Spending the money to build out even expensive solar would ha|e stimulated the economy, not harmed it

They are comparing roman concrete to portland cement, the most common formula. The kind of strength being emphasized is durability, because roman concrete has unique chemistry that allows small cracks to fill themselves. Modern special-purpose concrete blends can outperform roman concrete in other measures of strength, however.
