because normalfags (the consumers) have no standards
Software engineers
at least he's not a tripfag
>>>/kys/
whats with the sudden increase of tripfags on tech?
are we being raided by some gay discord group?
In general, software engineers aren't bad, and suggesting they are is a sign of absolute LARPing. External constraints force most software to be produced with a low quality. Those constraints are usually pointy-haired bosses and market forces.
Gay BO not forcing anonymous mode
Yeah why don't they just disable trips? There not useful in any way, especially considering half the people here are against centralized trust. If someone here really wanted to identify themselves, they would need to use GPG or something similar.
I'm a "software engineer" (I never call myself that) and it's quite true that most devs, at least that work with me are shit. I'm self taught, I was programming since I was 13 and I don't have a degree. I had to go through 4 interviews before I got the job (it took about 2 months in total because there was couple of weeks between them). I was nervous that I'd be the weak brainlet entering the professional environment and I'd get eaten alive, but it wasn't the case.
The jobs get done, the project goes forward, that is fine, I just don't like the way it's going. There's shit load of overhead everywhere that I'm not allowed to correct and I'm forced to write slower but "more maintainable" code. I'm not even talking about splitting everything into 5 lines long functions or using std string over const char*, I'm not talking about micro optimisations. I'm talking about coping vector of 100s of strings over and over because it's passed as value to a function or returned from function. I'm talking about having 5 maps with some specific element each instead of having one map with a structure of these elements (you only have to find it once). All I hear is "computers are fast now durrr" while they complain why their smart shit phone can't handle Spotify and gaybook messenger at the same time (they eat too much ram) and they don't see the irony...
I believe it's something about the university, because i know two other guys who don't have a degree and they are much saner. I will eventually leave for some embedded programming job cuz this high level programming (even in c++) is just to gay for me.
btw. Agile / scrum sucks ass and niggercock
Not everyone love their job.
It's not about university vs no degree, it's about giving a fuck about what you're doing.
to be fair, you do need to learn about the important things in life first.
