    People often say SQL has no problem to scale but they've never actually done it

    Whenever I see yet another level of YAML indirection rather than, you know, an actual programming language, I get a little sad.

    I no longer think you should learn to code

    Liking any of these indicates a belief system I don't agree with

    C++ is under attack from the US and EU everybody promoting a different language for anything C++ is used for

    I can't wait to try out the groundbreaking but still traditional and comfortable C++ Profiles that are going to be "designed", "verified", and "implemented" in the span of about 3 years by the sharpest minds on the committee operating under the assumption that everybody is out to get them and that this feature is not only absolutely essential to the survival of C++ but at the same time the result of pointless bureaucracy cooked up by the perverted minds that seek to corrupt our way of life.

    I am absolutely certain that I will be able to test out the feature in a functional compiler before the release of C++26.

    The TrapC compiler can avoid most memory-safe-pointer boundary checks by using AI code reasoning

    Turns out we don't need a borrow checker after all. We can just use vague "AI code reasoning". This seems highly credible and I'm sure we're going to see a fully functional compiler and source release within the next 10 decades.

    Cursor told me I should learn coding instead of asking it to generate code

    errors in Go are treated as first-class citizens (values) has a deeply-rooted history in programming language theory and the main goal of Go as a language itself

    Request for Community Description

    Please add a community/community scope description.

    The community description currently says

    CircleJerkCommunity at request of a user.

    But what is a programming circle jerk? What is a circle jerk? What is desired and accepted content? What's the expectation and scope on content?

    It would help understanding what content to expect (subscribe, block, keep neutral?) and what may be postable or not.

    (I was surprised about some post content being in this community and wanted to check my expectation/understanding.)

    Why are developers so attached to computer gibberish

    I once spent three days debugging a single line of code. When I finally found the missing semicolon, my team praised me as a “coding wizard.”

    man's really wrote like 7 classes to just have 1 function each

    I purchased it twice, but it keeps doing the same things to fix the issue, and all it does is consume credits.

    This is pushing the envelope of anti-intellectualism even by Go standards.
