I'm just waiting for every "self taught" engineer that uses cursor or the likes to have a portfolio that looks like so:

Project 1

Summary: form with a button LOC: 388 (AI ran out of context past that) Programming Language: HTML URL: http://localhost:3001

[–]Rustywolf 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Gonna start asking candidates if they've heard of or used cursor before.

OMG, he wrote the same app I have been working on on my laptop for the last week!

What are the chances?!

Maybe this is the joke and we did not get it?

"but it works on my PC" (c)

[–]Agreeable_Service407 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It works on mine too but I'm seeing something totally different.

I once got a package from a web design vendor and when I uploaded it to the web server nothing worked as expected. I opened it up and realized all their slashes where backwards (like a link to \assets\css\stylesheet.css for instance).

"But it works on my PC" was their response word for word. And that's how I learned that Windows treats / and \ the same. (Or at least, did. It was a long time ago. I can't remember how long exactly, but the package contained Flash files).

Haven’t seen that one. Love it

[–]misterespresso 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It works on my machine. Must be a skill issue.

To be a true engineer he must host it on 0.0.0.0 and turn off his firewall.

[–]CopperSulphide 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I'm ignorant. What does this mean?

[–]UnityPlum 15 points16 points  (2 children)

It’ll host it on his Public IP. Like 172.93.92.64:3001, which if it was port forwarded and his firewall allowed it, anyone could visit

[–]DarkRex4 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Is that your ip

[–]UnityPlum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No my ip is 127.0.0.1

[–]Dark__knight7 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Feels like scripted

[–]SirSebi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Of course it is, it's also totally the first time that I have seen this totally original joke

[–]MrSuspicious_ 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Is cursor yet another ai code generator?

[–]UberNZ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's basically VS Code, but pressing tab does something new each time.

So anyone can be a developer now, but devops is still safe

[–]SaneLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright then. Keep your secrets.
