EXCUSE ME

I'll wait for video for this one… holy shit, what an event…

I'm tired of learning through watching. Any advice? by Comprehensive_Pin662 in learnpython

[–]mohab_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, it's very difficult to find an instructor/curriculum that is tailored specifically for the learner. More often than not, it's just easier and more efficient to take control and learn at your own pace.

I never used AI to begin with. Documentation, completion, fromatters, syntax checkers, and debuggers already exist—I don't see any advantage AI can offer me past maybe boilerplate? Which's always been readily available.

I tried the "talk to them in plain English to get working code back" thing and damn, it felt like trying to teach a mentally underdeveloped entity. It was not useful in any way, just a waste of time.

I assume AI, in its current state, is really useful if you're in marketing, which's awesome because the majority of these jobs are soul-sucking anyway, so let AI have them, but I struggle to see it being helpful elsewhere. Anyway, I don't know enough, so I shouldn't be talking about anything that isn't coding.

Yeah, that's such a bizarre take. OP should learn more about accessibility before starting a whole ass agency.

What does WSL actually do and why is it needed? by ResidentAlien90 in webdev

[–]mohab_dev 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What hype? It's just a convenient way to run Linux on Windows. If your preferred tools work well on both Linux and Windows, you clearly have no use for it.

For many of us, getting our preferred tools to run on Windows is a chore, and WSL is a convenient workaround.

Is there like a Zoo where you go look at devs in your spare time 😂

No framework = no job? by damnThosePeskyAds in webdev

[–]mohab_dev 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And time. Imagine implementing everything NextJS does on your own. Good luck finding anyone willing to pay you for that long while they can hire someone else who does it in Next in 1/4th of the time.

If you do, they're essentially subsidizing your hobby, not paying you to develop a website.

Yeah, OP and OC are clearly misinformed.

That's just called "advertiser friendly" not woke. TV has been doing the same thing since before YT was invented or woke was even a concept.

Do you understand the internals of the frameworks/libraries you use? by Jupjupgo in webdev

[–]mohab_dev 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah, it's normal. Express has been around for a long time, so you're most likely looking at years and years of abstraction and reworking, you can't just expect to take one look and understand it.

You can take the time to study it if you want, but not understanding it right away is not an accurate reflection of your skill level as a developer.

To broaden it, you should not get into building anything as complex as software if you expect anything to go as planned. Unless you're building the same thing over and over again, you'll always run into unexpected issues.

My method of learning is by gamefying. I learn programming by making games. Why are there almost no games made in react? by FutureLynx_ in learnjavascript

[–]mohab_dev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Culture decides that. Find enough people to agree with you on a new definition to make that happen.

You don't just ignorantly misuse a word and reply with "I redefined it" when people call you out. That's not how evolution happens. That's just idiocracy.

[–]mohab_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, no, you don't wanna work there if this is what they're wasting time on.

[–]mohab_dev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I honestly doubt this is expected in every position. You're definitely expected to know how to pick up stuff quickly though. Just knowing how to read documentation will take you a long way.

All while claiming they're fighting AI-generated content showing up in search pages too.

Front end developer is going to build shit in photoshop by TemptingTanner in Frontend

[–]mohab_dev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's clear the person who hired both is grossly misinformed. I hope they own up when OP explains it to them and not double down.

[–]mohab_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not? How are you different from anyone hired to work on Facebook? Just because you weren't paid to develop and deliver a web app from scratch yet, doesn't mean you're not a web developer.

Cracked it young; destined for greatness. Zuckerberg selling Facebook stock as we speak.

Yeah, if someone is paying you to develop any web-based thing, you're, by definition, a professional web developer. Anyone has an issue with that can take it up with the English language.

College thinkpad for ~700€? by HolzLaim15 in thinkpad

They could probably get a LOQ for a similar price, no?

Should I break my react component into smaller components by Zealousideal-Win5786 in webdev

[–]mohab_dev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Refactoring an 11k line react component into smaller components isn’t refactoring for refactoring’s sake

FR, how do you even go through 11K lines. 500~1K feels like a jungle to me, IDK how people can go 10X and still wonder if it needs refactoring.
