So where is the bottom?
I don’t actually believe there is one, I’m just curious to hear what other people think.
Probably April or May 2025. I'm bullish still. But then I'm not all US stocks anyway.
Readit NewsCheap stocks people. Got my eye on some that below a certain price it would be a no brainer to buy. Global trade is rerouting around the bottleneck.
Didn't think there would be an opportunity so soon after March 2020.
Got my eye on a tech stock that has dropped about 40% already but was undervalued before IMO.
blatantly commented on Coding Is Over. Now What? svpino.com/articles/codin... · Posted by u/ghuntley
We are not at the stage where AI can replace graduates. No where near. I worked with an intern recently and it was a pleasure. The quality was excellent. An AI couldn't do what they did. In particular it cannot be accountable or really learn anything. Beyond adding more instructions but that is not tacit knowledge. That is like giving a run book to an idiot who doesn't have experience and may or may not understand it.
Stop talking about coding and talk about what humans do.
Otherwise chatgpt could replace any politician because it can recognize and say words. Wording is dead what now!

A side project is creative while work is reductive (not necessarily a bad thing!)
Side project is graffiti art on your shed wall, day job is 3 coats gloss white on the ceilings. That needs to be finished by Friday.
I have some side project ideas but need the time! Mainly these would be contributing to OSS databases to get (any!) knowledge of systems proprogramming. Node.js or Go preferred due to familiarity.
They got trained in all the department activities and laws they now work in?
How many years of training were that?
I lost the thread a bit. Are we talking about Doge? Yes that is a abysmal. No defence for that.
But in general people need to learn some stuff on the job. E.g. hire an 18 year old hacker and by 20 they are leading projects, debugging code, preparing for SOC compliance etc. Is possible.
> how accruals work
Slightly off-topic but I worked at a UK research organisation that was a privatised entity recently spun-off from a civil-service organisation. The new CEO (who came from a finance background) got a tour of each department. He apparently listened to all of the tech evangelism from the department directors and then asked them how their department's accruals were doing. Those department directors who asked him to clarify what he meant by accruals didn't stay in post very long. Allegedly.
Us lowly engineers just kept our heads down.
Oh nice. A culture where asking questions is punished. If this was a problem don't fire people. Train them. Make sure everyone does required training. If they refuse then you may have a case for PIP.
Otherwise it is just landmine driven performance
Rant not at comment! But the situation of the comment. Hope it worked out for you!

Crypto or AI?
I'd forgive a few of those. Unicode is Unicode. The for loop capture behaviour makes sense to me. Missing semis should also be in your linter. Sparse arrays is the sort of feature you'd read up on if you use and not rely on intuition. It makes sense that if you loop over a sparse thing the looping is sparse too.
It is not prison if there is no due process.
