I don't understand how that works on people. Dog whistling, "Hey, hey, leave me to my grift."

The ownership of the stock itself is a luxury experience. Maybe in the future you must own the assets for the opportunity, like an aspiring exotic factory Ferrari customer. I am sure some bored apes could get into something like that.
Re:Programs Are Games, Programming Is a Game on Friday December 15, 2023 @11:07AM (#38655483)
You can't say this and not mention Factorio. Software engineering at the limit is just like industrial engineering except you work with bits. You need to be aware of your pipelines and timelines to ensure maximum throughput.

To run with the metaphor further, you could call it a kind of instrumental play, which is the type of play where it is actually socially rude to have consistent low performance. https://www.academia.edu/34821396/Instrumental_Play

Re:Project Management Software Can't Save You on Wednesday October 04, 2023 @11:33AM (#37766659)
Part 1 of the 2 part Senior capstone project for the software engineering program I attended required students to create a a full project management suite of Gantt charts, UML diagrams, etc and approval from your advisor before continuing with actually building software in part 2. Naturally, I built the software package, then wrote my charts, and the 2nd semester did nothing. It was a complete joke.
First clip of the video: "They were there purely for the career fair." Just a few posts down they claim there was no recruitment and then invokes Ada Lovelace's existence like it means anything. The OP adds and removes facts from every new post just like the people attending the fair do with their declared gender and a dumb thing gets even dumber. Generates those X analytics though I'm sure.

More like embracing. Defcon has been fully enshittified for approaching a decade at this point. The ethos was completely lost by the organizers.

Re:Introduction to Defensive CSS on Wednesday June 21, 2023 @08:04AM (#36417391)
Defensive as in defensive driving, I assume, which would also be better described as thoughtful, intentional, and correct driving. The metaphor follows for me.
I feel like it would be bad luck to invest in someone named Pozin. But if you get in and out early, good for you?

IT IS ARGUABLY (ACTUALLY) EVEN CLOSER TO "FUTA". Maybe they are upset with Teaching Assistance?
