Yea the delta is important. And the mythical man month also counts ramp up time and not people just being generally incompetent.

Been through lots of engineers that can’t make it past ramp up, where everything is unpossible. Had many pms that couldn’t speak past the problem to save their lives so I feel that. But let’s be clear if there is a way forward don’t obscure the value. Don’t talk down. I work with post docs, principal engineers etc and they seem to be able to break down the problem, meanwhile lower level techs keep up with this shit.

Then half of your job is dealing with a shitty company and not being a developer. Half of your job is being wasted on overhead you can’t manage. That is half of your capability wasted on a lack of collaboration. How else to describe it than you are half the dev you could be while you blame everyone else. Shit as a director I’m not mixing words.

What you’re tracing the edges of is not being able manage complexity in a collaborative environment. If you can’t break the problem down part of is on the team but a lot of it is on you. If you want to architect a solution you have to be able to explain it.

That’s antithetical to you keeping on about how shitty (everyone else is) aka the other half of the world.

It’s pretty bad having to explain this to coddled engineers learning how the other half of the company works. Talking as if everyone else doesn’t get it while they can’t even perceive their own bubble. It’s not magic. It’s code. It’s nothing crazy so why be an asshole about it? Why do I get more bs from coders than I do contractors working on my roof? And don’t get me wrong the roofers piss in a shingles box and leave it for me to dispose… My grandfather worked on the Apollo missions so why is C# black fucking magic and suddenly you’re Gandalf? To YOU it’s magic. To the rest of us it’s a fucking job and you talk too much.

Again you aren’t responding to anything and making stuff up. The aweeehaaa stuff you quoted is nonsense you made up and took from the aether. You have no sense to your argument and your only substance is a picture of a donkey. Thats your strength?

Do I need to quote your pic of a donkey to make my point? You are not coming off as competent at all…

> Who did you copy? What’s the aweehaaa shit? is that *not* what you said? my mistake.

As someone else said you have offered the “most cursed take of the day”

Keep on like my reply is the “donkey show”… whatever that is supposed to mean… you’re giving us the show.

You replied to someone else, while you called my response a “donkey show”… all while spewing more dumb shit. Keep up.

Who did you quote? What’s the aweehaaa shit? Are you fluent in jackass or just a native idiot and trying to justify your stupidity?

Either way it’s cool. We see you from a mile a way. Real code gets used from folks that are better than you. Reality is that you don’t get along with humans so they don’t want to want to get along with you. So the world works different. Get a clue.

We know what it’s like to work with you. You are obvious and we are fluent in reading you.

I’ll give you up to ten years to figure out how toxic you are. Hee haw all you like…

Keep your opinion to yourself while you try to work with OTHER people.

“As a dev myself…”

“Users of my code = donkeys”

Logically, where the fuck does this end other than you sucking your own dick? Just write code for yourself and shut up.

Keep in kind I’m using logic to ask a dev…

Why WOULD ANYONE need to hear your opinion if you think EVERYONE else is a donkey?

They’re fat and lazy enough already. Last thing we need is an SE thinking they sit on IP and the rest of us can fuck off. You write code that others defined and you work WITHIN a system. You are the equivalent of a translator who speaks Spanish. You don’t work magic. Everyone else works in systems we are all asked to consider the business logic beyond simple tasks so fuck off with your snowflakes. I work with so many engineering VPs that you just come off as “special”. You are white gloves special people who demand handling that no one else requests, and for why? Why do you deserve special IP concerns?

Seriously I am tired of engineers being gate keepers while the other two legs of the stool keep this shit together.

Seriously engineers get your shit together as we are all making a product together and you don’t own any more shit then a pm and that’s saying something.

Not sure, why is everyone disagreeing with you?

You are pretending that without a state sponsored education about someone… no one is allowed to police them?

Why are you gate keeping?

What does my context have to do with anything? You should try to do better understanding the “context of previous discussions…”

You should get a clue before posting this shit…

Take this at its most extreme.

So, for instance, I have to watch scat porn to avoid it? I don’t have permission from you to say I want to avoid watching people eating shit until I’ve personally watched people eating shit regardless of my preference?

You understand how stupid you sound?

You should hope you never have to experience a parent suffer the health care system… mentally or physically. Assuming you’re not a monster you’d likely have a different opinion right now. It’s stupid to assume it’s like a parent telling a toddler how they file taxes…

I saw my mother constantly get denied health care because her insurance wouldn’t cover her arthritis which was considered a “pre-existing condition”.

I saw her suffer trying to get medication for migraines every month while Merck said nope.

I saw democrats get rid of preexisting conditions with passage of ACA. I saw republicans lie about ACA claiming it’s economic demise…

Demise never happened and republicans never once proposed anything better…

So naturally…

I saw my mom deny that any of this ever happened a few years later, that democrats never helped anyone and then she advocated for trump. I’ve seen her and others say democrats are the problem.

I’ve seen a lot of weird shit…

It can always be off putting how people deal with death.

A doctor has to numb themselves somewhat but like you mention there are those that are too numb.

You need a doctor that is not so affected by the moment, but you also don’t want a sociopath…

The bot is basically loud as fuck in a way that disrupts the comment feed.

Imagine how comments should create and add to a conversation. Imagine how various lemmy clients feed or service that conversation….

Now imagine how a double dropdown big as fuck post says “fuck you” to that conversation.

Just please consider how the form of your shit can be just as imposing as the content, which I really appreciate.

Yet somehow your posts always have me thinking “shut the fuck up” which seems antithetical to building a community.

“Vulnerable children you say? Ah… uh Ms. Hilton, you do know the presidential candidate for our party ran the miss teen USA pageant?

Oh yes he even bragged about how much he liked to walk into the girls dressing room and how they (us republicans now) just LET him do that cause he is famous you know…

Tell you what let me introduce you to my colleague Matt Gaetz he’s offered to help any of your younger friends still facing these terrible circumstances…”

Always a victim. Even if you’re a judge on the highest court of the land… you are a “victim” at the hands of those you judge.

They were clearly forced to act this way! They have no agency.

“Minor risks” being whole families dying or key family members getting poisoned as we transitioned to a society where most folks don’t own their own cow/source of milk.

It’s dangerous to assume all those years of use were a utopia. We used leaded gas for how long and are only just now getting to understand the ramifications?

By your mindset poisoning a future generation with lead is a “minor risk” we dealt with back then…

Whenever “crime” comes up, the answer is usually “get tougher” more police etc. No one ever questions the approach or performance of the police.

Sometimes it feels like selective enforcement. I mean, heaven forbid we question the police and their ability to properly do their job vs just earning OT…

But why is it you see a huge police presence whenever someone protests something, yet this “lawlessness” pervades?

Did President Obama have “total control” of Congress? Yes, for 4 entire months.

Problem is 3.5 years of any one presidential term isn’t going to suddenly change the structural stuff. It’s unrealistic especially in the context of 8 years of bush and reagan each, plus 4 years of bush 1 AND 4 years of trump straight gassing protestors yet still potentially getting re-elected. PLUS a congress full of republicans supporting them all the way.

You will never see any structural change even remotely close to what you’re talking about, so long as people elect republicans. Even if you want to lean heavily on a single president to wave the wand, the next administration can just reverse/neuter it. Without a solid Democratic majority in congress to go along with a Democratic President you couldn’t even have the conversation.

If republicans get elected you’re going to be set back 10 more years and the conversation will be for a fraction of what could have been…
