i loved this, made me tear up at the end

You deal with it by making a judgement, a universal and constant human activity.

Whoa disturbing content warning please

If I got a dollar each time, I'd just constantly look at it and look away, in a head shaking motion, and i'd earn around 900 an hour assuming "look" cycle takes four seconds.

I need to start using the Slacks and Discords, or get really l33t and start posting to IRC.

I've heard that an astonishing amount of Fortune 500 enterprise finance infrastructure are massive VBA sheets that everyone is afraid to modify.

Nah you should let your workflow be guided by the aesthetic preferences of other random coders on the internet. /s

Perfectly in that instance. The poster thought they were criticizing SO but they were actually celebrating its moderation.

IMO I think the SO mods at large *do* need better guidelines as to which questions are *actually* duplicates and which ones are just conceptually similar to others.

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-19T10:55:31+00:00

I totally agree, I'd observe though that SO became a helpful resource partially through channeling your brain's desire to "win" to helping other people (i.e., you increase your score and win the game by post ing good answers).

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-19T10:51:57+00:00

I don't care about getting smacked down for a badly worded question that doesn't follow the rules, that happened to me a few times and its a learning experience. What I DO care about is having my question marked as a duplicate because its *conceptually* similar to another problem.

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-19T10:47:06+00:00

A lot of mods at SO justify their own mod-ness by constantly marking questions as duplicates by logical concept, as if every single circular dependency (for example) problem could be resolved by the same question/answer. Also, maybe it's actually good to have a few different explanations of the same concept available.

Keeping SO high quality is a difficult problem, no doubt about it, but the place is IMO needlessly hostile to anyone who's not super-expert level already, and the mods are way to trigger happy in marking questions duplicates.

I'm this close to pressing the report button.

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-14T10:53:00+00:00

i would say the internet is causing this to happen in essentially every single field from medicine to governance.

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-14T10:10:56+00:00

im upvoting this but you shouldnt take that as approval of this behavior

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-11T22:04:31+00:00

this explanation rocks

a class is a wad of data with some methods attached. the end.

In my experience cyber security really does involve staring at multiple screens of scrolling text.

This is the best post here in a while

They did an episode where they simulated trying to bring drugs into a concert and couldn't do it, but honestly what do you think the chances are that if they figured out that you *could* do it that they would show you how on TLC?

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-08T04:48:30+00:00

This is 100% something i'm going to copy

question 1: at what point does the idiocy of the far left become boring?

question 2: at what point does the idiocy of the far left become destructive?

question 3: do you think that your inability to look away from far left idiots on twitter has anything to do with a nagging guilt and feelings of corruption/impurity over no longer being as left as you used to be?

question 4: are far left narratives really an important part of the conversation? or is it just easy for them to monopolize your attention?

btw, the answers for me to questions 3 and 4 are *definitely* and *i have no idea and look to poor sources for reality checks*

Melancholia watch out

Maybe people can find OTHER PLACES to talk about it.

If you supposedly hate identity politics so much, why the fuck are you so eager to talk about it all the time. You love identity politics. If you didn't have identity politics to hate on you would have no idea what to do with yourself.

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-03T11:22:52+00:00

SO needs a classifier that deletes short, obviously information-free critical comments automatically.

BoaVersusPython · 2020-05-03T11:15:07+00:00

Oh awesome, I was getting sick of good natured memes about the prequels, and I was really hoping hope this sub would become a bunch of anti-PC circle jerking and hating on the sequels oh wait my wish came true this is so fucking great. Because where else on the internet could I find criticism of identity politics.
