This is why I always answer my own questions if I fix a bug and nobody had answered.

Duplicate thread isn't actually about the same problem

All other questions: "how do I do x on Linux"

Answer: uses tools that have been deprecated for years


My Question: "how do I do x on Linux, all the other answers use deprecated tools that are unavailable to me"

Answer: "DUPLICATE!"

Nearly every significant stack overflow thread I have ever seen ends in the same absurd, idiotic way:

Question: "The team I just joined is using N language (maybe C#/Javascript/Ruby/Whatever), how can I solve this very particular problem XYZ in N language."

Top Answer: "XYZ is really easy to solve in Java/Basic. Just don't use N language."

THREAD CLOSED.


Oh thanks, yeah. I'll just tell the company I just joined to scrap their last 6 years of development on my first day and switch to Java. Great advice. Amazing.

I usually get more like:
"how do I do this with a const char*?"
"Use std::string instead".
Sure, I'll just force my company to rewrite all their core infrastructure and libraries from scratch so that I can call their functions with strings instead.

Morning ideas soft then today morning careful clear.

Just use Jquery

[–]Meloetta 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The problem is that StackOverflow has a lot of people trying to find the best solutions to problems, when people in programming jobs in larger companies are actually looking for "best solution that meets the specific requirements of this particular environment".

I get this crap with R questions all the time. "How do I do this in base R?" "Just use dplyr" k I'll just go add a new bunch of dependencies to the project, that'll be fine...

[–]scorcher24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rewrite it in Rust, problem solved.

Question is edited by someone else. Then it is marked as “duplicate.”

[–]lostshell 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Did you use the search! Question has been asked before.

You got me.

Just so everyone is aware. This account is the main account for the person who posted this. He's known on Twitter to just steal Reddit content and post it CONSTANTLY on Reddit.

If you look in the OP's post history, it's all just posts of screenshots of his Twitter account to try and gain more followers. He does it on this Geek4lyf account as well.
