Rhesus Pieces posted:a software guy in that work gossip twitter thread floating around a few weeks back implied that a staggeringly high percentage of coders can’t code at all and just copy/paste off of google and stack overflow all day and collect a handsome paycheck for it It’s pretty effective (I’ve never been paid for coding, but I impressed my boss by whipping up a tool for us to automate a lot of stuff that was crippling our team via this method). Dead Beef posted:people would be worried if they knew how many critical systems are held together by excel Or how many multi-million dollar business have all their books primarily in spreadsheets; often in folders that all 100 people in accounting have full deletion writes on. And just how much of it is linked together based on location, which just shatters spectacularly when someone takes it upon themselves to “clean up our drive”. The worst ones are the people who know a little too much and start basically creating their own little database structure which is essentially just a pile of spreadsheets. It does seem to work pretty well, other than the IT guys generally don’t try to be Excel experts unless they have to. So when things break it’s a shitshow trying to figure everything out.

I don't have the skills to understand this something about the road to being talented? what is the clever bit I am missing in my lovely attempt to translate this across time space and culture?

In capitalist countries, this is the path for talents. In a socialist country, make way for talent!

Huh, never expected Mongolia to be so free. And then in the levant, there's a bit of green with a splortch of white in the middle, so I guess Israel counts as free so long as Palestinians don't exist.

Ugato posted:It’s pretty effective My last job was with COMPANY THAT COULD SUE ME INTO OBLIVION’S NAME REDACTED and a vast majority of their coders were like this. It was hell. There was an entire floor of them, all cutting and pasting poo poo together on three thousand dollar macbooks, whisked away by an AGILE tornado when the job was 3/4ths of the way done and 0/4ths of the way documented. The ones that knew what they were doing would stick around long enough to get another offer, then steal chunks of the (lovely) codebase to sell off to the competition. The cio was some buttplug fresh from amazon who had a strong faith that developers are the only way forward, but not so much interest in finding good ones. He also thought the best way to fix the help desk was to teach them how to code. People like you are the devil to me, is what I’m saying. You’re proof that I’m a bad person and this world is hell.

Also bounty hunters are an actual real thing. Isn't 'finding and capturing criminals' what the police are for?
