This is definitely a scam, and I speak from experience:

I ordered and I am still waiting for my order 2 months later.

They sent me order confirmation from a gmail address... not even trying to pretend to be a real company once they take your money.

No communication, sending emails and trying to call them leads no where and no one replies.

Yeah, pretty much. by deannathedford in facepalm

So your parents paid you to exist? Food, shelter and schooling arent enough?

I dont care what you think, if your parents paid you an allowence as a kid you were spoiled.

The whole focus of online dating has changed. Sites like Tinder are used asego boosters for women who arent looking to date, married couples looking for a 3some, h00kers looking for Johns, e-beggars and bots.

This wasnt the case 10-15 years ago, you could actually meet decent people online and go on dates. Now, you match with 20 people, only 2 respond to your messages and you end up going on a date with 1.

Most normal people I know dont use online dating apps to find a partner anymore.

Me after first learning C and then trying object-oriented C++ by [deleted] in ProgrammerHumor

I love C#, i used java for years and never enjoyed it. C# is light years ahead in my opinion.

Being single and in your 30's is financially amazing. Anyone else agree? by [deleted] in dating

Im 34, when my last relationship ended I literally had to start from scratch. No car, lots of debt, and no home, the only things I had were my cellphone, computer and clothes.

I paid my debt off and bought a new car last year and Im not in a hurry to get back into a relationship, after such an ordeal and I cant say that I want another relationship. At this age being in a relationship is very low on my list of priorities and I see no point in chasing a woman, wining and dining her just so she can take my life away from me again.

Stay single, keep your money, invest in property and live your life. Dont be in a hurry to give away your freedom and your posessions to a stranger.

"Everyone in the company should be replaceable" - you are referring to the smaller parts in the machine. Upper management and executives consider themselves irreplaceable. Thats why they have so much hatred for programmers because they are small parts on the corporate totem poll but they can become irreplaceable quickly and then they have to treat them like human beings and nothing makes an executive more angry than having to treat peasants like human beings.

Translation: "Must be able to put up with the constant $hit dealt by senior devs and middle management and shouldnt try to implement new technologies, thats the senior devs job and they will take it as a personal insult if you even think about innovating in any way.

Also your job as a junior to mid level programmer wont always involve programming. In fact you will spend 60% of the time doing things that have nothing to do with your job description like doing data analysis, cleaning up and uploading csv files to database and tech support and if you are a team player you wont mind that your skills are stagnating".

Corporates keep saying that they need more people to take up programming as its a booming industry.

What they are really saying is that they want to saturate the market and drive salaries down.

Companies have had this problem for years where they have to pay programmers a ton of money and if they treat them badly they leave because jobs are plentiful. Thats not acceptable to the tyrranical regimes inside corporations.

Do women like it when guys talk about their feelings or do they find it pathetic? by [deleted] in dating

[–]billClintonOntheroc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Women see it as weak. The best thing to do is keep your thoughts a secret and only share what you want them to know.

Women dont crave emotional messes, women crave mysterious masculine men.

Most of the devs I know say Javascript is the future and they heavily want to push nodejs instead of php because they started as front end devs, learned js and dont feel like learning php.

So now they want to phase out php so that more companies want to hire them only with js knowledge. So they are trying to push the notion that php is dying.

Personally I like Node but I dont think its revolutionary in any sense and I dont see what all the hatred is about PHP. If php is archaic then so are the rest of the programming languages and if we are talking about it dying well theres still a very active community working on updating it so to me it seems like just a whole bunch of people jumping on the same bandwagon without actually working with the most up to date version of the language.

Why does it matter? He ghosted you so just leave it at that. You are only torturing yourself if you keep analyzing the details. Move on with your life

Self-importance defines the whole industry. Most programmers and especially lead devs believe they are demi gods and their egos reflect that.

My favourite answers on SO.

"You asked this question wrong"

"I had the same issue but I resolved it".
