"Top Tier University" seems to be a popular buzzphrase too which seems especially ridiculous when they pair it with positions that demand a decade of experience. "Well sir, your years of experience in the R&D departments of companies X, Y and Z is very impressive..." *snickers* "Wait, you went to a state school 25 years ago!? Get lost scrub."

MrMoo posted:The so called "real developers" like to reinvent the wheel a lot and for some reason have an utter hatred of the Boost C++ collection and for many years many job adverts have been trying to attract said developers. Rogue-wave offered an alternative STL implementation for most platforms before they shipped something actually useable. Similarly there is still quite a consistent hatred of std::string due to memory usage, the Qt project I believe has written their own versions of a lot of containers to reduce memory usage in KDE. Simple, they just don't use them. People hate Boost because it's the basically the poster child for the bad parts of C++. Basically because of philosophies like this. Oh, you have a nice simple function that does exactly what you need? Well, that's no good. Here, let's pile on layers of templates and dependencies until it's unreadable by mere mortals, 5x larger than it needs to be, takes 2x longer to compile and vomits 100 line error messages if you make a simple mistake. But, hey, it can now handle some generic edge case you don't actually need it to!
