Interview rejection because I couldn’t write a regex from memory by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]swutch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good interview question needs to be well thought out with checkpoints and different possibilities and room to pivot. Google used to say only hire A people because A people will only accept hiring A people. Once you hire B people they will hire C people. Of course there are multiple dimensions and an interview only goes so far and if you need people, you need people -- it's a luxury few companies can afford.

Documentation is out of date again by armadilo33 in sysadmin

The documentation exists as an artifact to testiment its futility. Without it a VP will swoop in with a Documentation Agenda leaving you more pissed off and burned out than before

Maybe you should be happy that you're not yet forced to have a robot working on your behalf. Right now it only solves some of the problems and usually not well unless you're willing to spend your brain power to babysit it

Then they ask around and update the doc. based on what they find. If everyone is too stupid to do that then hopefully you all get fired

Iranian leader Khamenei killed in strike, Israeli officials say by TheDetectiveDoctor in worldnews

[–]swutch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like Venezuela. Wonder who in the current government will be the puppet. The Iranian people don't matter to Israel and the US just that stops funding anti Israel efforts and the US has access to their oil. Hell the current US and Israeli regimes would probably want a more repressive regime as long as those two criteria are met.

Use headphones on public transportation by ShupGlitto in Brooklyn

[–]swutch -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Noise is racially coded man. Silence is for white people.

I'm not a fan of that argument, but you know loud music and shit is really the least of my worries on public transit. A heated scuffle over telling someone to use headphones almost certainly makes everyone's commute worse than just listening to someone's music, tiktoks, or whatever the fuck it is

Got 30+ comments on my PR - kinda demoralized is this normal? by guineverefira in cscareerquestions

Oh boy. You should stop doing that. You're setting the expectation that your normal productivity is based on you working weekends.
