Algebra

This one appears to be sensationalist, but seeing bugs coming out of the woodwork in every layer of the stack makes you realize how vulnerable our giant tech stack is and always was. I think it’s time to hit reset and nuke the stack. Surely there is a way to create a low level, generic execution environment that doesn’t rely on this bloated ass stack. I don’t see why an application’s entire stack could not be auditable down to the machine instructions. Then, we wouldn’t all need access to super computers like today.

I was under the impression I wouldn’t have to defend myself =]

OOP dogma isn’t just bad, it’s actively harmful. OOP leads to unnecessary boilerplate. Any boilerplate that is not absolutely necessary is noise and bad. Full stop.

Private (Getters/setters): Strictly not a necessity in any sense of the word.

Short functions everywhere.

Short files everywhere.

I prefer to see the steps of execution that are actually happening in the real world on hardware. Not an ivory tower of code that happens to execute.

Never understood the idea of, “if it needs to be fast, that part is in a faster language.” Why not just use the faster language? Most of the libraries that have Python wrappers also come with c headers. Sometimes you wind up in the reverse situation where your dependency doesn’t have a Python wrapper and now you’re stuck managing silly boilerplate. Python just feels like an extra thing in the way to wrangle for little gain.

Also, hotspot-only optimization doesn’t seem to have held up in reality, right? We can all agree that software is getting slower every day. The infrastructure is slow.

All feels like cope, through and through.

Reminds me of the time i renamed someone’s network from “estrogen” to “testosterone.” Tech savvy enough to login and change the name, but they left the default login open.

What bothers me more than the stupid, are the true believers who are otherwise intelligent. I know many of these people. Through some combination of religion/gullibility/stubbornness, they refuse to apply Occam’s Razor to anything that breaks their fragile little world view.

Every cult member explaining why the media is so negative to Trump:

2009 should have been the end of trying to “reach across the aisle.” 2010 should have been the end of the filibuster.

AI tiddies?

Been shouting this from the rooftops since the beginning. If it was half as good as claimed, I would NOT have access to it.
