This may be a cynical take, but as someone with 10+ years of experience why should I care if companies are too short sighted to value and train juniors?
That's ... an interesting observation. I've found that LLMs work great when they can check their work and have a clear notion of what correct looks like. e.g. a good test suite they can rely on.
I'm sure a REPL helps out with this sort of thing quite a bit!
I fully agree that most people won't be comfortable if they're the "only" man or woman at the party.
How do you suggest evening genders out? Inviting couples is fine by definition; but I only really know single men. It seems odd for me to randomly invite single women I don't really know.
How would you handle the case where you want to trace 100% of errors? Presumably you don't know a trace is an error until after you've executed the thing and paid the price.
It's more accurate to say those do the boilerplate of memory access necessary for complex types for you. You're still basically limited to integers and floats.
But when you think about it, isn't that basically true for native languages?
100% I've had great success inviting people to dinner parties and such. This works great for people I already know.
I've tried hosting public groups, with partial success. Have you got any ideas there?
I've tried posting events on local Facebook groups, mostly. But my experience is that very few people are actually active online and willing to physically do something.
I'm living this life right now; except we baked in notions of Assets/Liabilities/Income/Expenses into our ledger logic. Only to realize our customers don't care and just want to do whatever it is they've been doing.
Most of the time I've just had a completely sleepless night; I normally just muddle through with a lot of coffee. I've tried taking a sick day for this sort of thing, but I found that puttering around at home just threw me off even further.
Ever since my divorce I feel like I'm just going through the motions, work, sleep, socialize. Without a home life it just feels empty, but what decent woman would want someone like me with my baggage? Even if I found someone, which seems impossible these days, with no-fault-divorce why would it be any different this time around?
I suppose this makes more sense, though I feel like if they'd put in even a partial effort they could've dragged it out much longer than they did. Boom, FAANG wages at boring mid-west companies.
