Man up and be professional. Your (trivial) work isn't a romantic relationship.

Every programmer distorts the truth to preserve code he's already written. It's not pathological if everyone does it.

Yes, a teaching assistant / course grader does exactly this.

Accept two facts. One, everyone assumes you know and care about what they're talking about. Two, nothing that you or they do on a weekly timescale matters in the slightest to the bottom line.

Besides two chicks at the same time? Nothing. I would sit on my ass all day. I would do nothing. -- P. Gibbons.

it is your passion to make markets efficient

... said no one ever. Incidentally, Ray is certainly among the better funded outfits, but by now, everyone can see generalized MLOps is never going to happen. Nature of the beast calls for bespoke hardware and in-house dev.

We don't do it for them. We do it to to bring closure for ourselves. Outside of death, it's usually "What have you done for me lately?"

I dunno who this Alan Kay guy is, but he needs to get to the point faster.

A two-year MS in CS is precisely that.

Most American universities allow precocious high schoolers to graduate in three years, but unless tuition money is a concern, a fourth year to soak it all in is worth it. Your working life is long -- one year is nothing.

Have him borrow 75k from you, then split equity 50/50.

Most likely you'll lose your shirts, at which point, your buddy better translate his motivation and quick learning skills into 75k plus interest.

Many twenty-something co-workers do co-habitate. Then they get married, and that's the end of that.

don’t see this type of licensing often.

That's because it relies on people ignoring a $20 bill on the sidewalk.

What would life be like if there was no electricity for six months?

My pacemaker would stop ticking, and I'd die. So no, I'm gonna go to as many bars, cinemas and video arcades as possible, and books can go suck it.

Try being less verbose. Waste not, want not.

I only remember 10% of what I read, so I agree it's not efficient, and certainly not fun. But reading is the only way to become a better writer, and that's still worth something in my circles.

We didn't need that level of detail, and we can't help you.

Tend bar, drive uber, or deliver Amazon. Accept that your crimes have you set you back for life, and a white-collar job might be out of reach for many years.

It's called an aging libido. Your social circle never expected much from you, but it takes all of your 20s and 30s for the little brain to relent to being average.

I just had a robust discussion

Truly robust discussions sometimes lead to published papers. Your discussions are ones struck up and quickly forgotten by fifth graders.

It's hard to imagine a C programmer so professionally ignorant that he's yet to realize C++ is a superset of C.
