Confused Unga Bunga Code Review

Someone posted on Stack Overflow asking if they could recover a file they accidentally nuked with rm . The question got marked as "off-topic" and closed faster than you can say "backup strategy." The real comedy here is the moderator's comment at the bottom: "you've been a member for 7 weeks, have asked and answered dozens of questions, and didn't know this was a site for programming questions?" Imagine spending 7 weeks contributing to Stack Overflow, building up that sweet reputation score, only to have someone point out you fundamentally misunderstood what the site was for. That's like working at a pizza place for two months before realizing it's actually a dentist's office. The "Good Old Days" refers to when Stack Overflow was the Wild West and you could ask literally anything before the moderators became stricter than a production deployment checklist. Fun fact: The answer to the original question is "no, probably not" unless you had backups or got really lucky with file recovery tools. Which is why seasoned sysadmins have trust issues and backup everything three times.

Ah, the eternal language war! The meme shows C++ syntax (the massive elephant) looking down at Python syntax (the tiny penguin), while a confused programmer (the old man) is stuck with some bizarre hybrid monstrosity. That virtual def foo() with curly braces is like showing up to a formal dinner wearing swimming trunks and a tuxedo jacket. When you've been context-switching between languages all day, your brain eventually short-circuits and creates these Frankenstein abominations. The real horror isn't the bugs – it's the moment you can't remember which language you're supposed to be writing in!

Content . 20 hr. ago CS may not be a great pick. I have a friend with 30 years of software engineering experience who now uses GPT-4 daily and said it's 3x to 10x faster than what he can do himself, at equal or better code qualityreadability. He predicts most tech companies will be able to get rid of about 70 of their current Engineering workforces by the end of the year. 2 upvotes 0 awards
