the best thing about memes is that anybody can take it and remix it to make it better :)

haha nice work, that is an improvement :)

haha can’t believe I forgot that gem

Any problem that’s not repeatable is incredibly frustrating, and you’re rarely sure if you’ve truly fixed it in the end.

oh haha oops

one’s not sure why and the other is don’t know

lol yeah that sounds like a nightmare

I find setters/getters are generally an antipattern because they obfuscate behavior. When you access a field you know what it looks like, but if you pass it through some implicit transformation in a getter then you have to know what that was.

Boilerplate is bad because it’s fundamentally just noise. When you read the code you want to be able to tell what the purpose of the code is and what the problem it solves. Ideally, code should be expressing that as clearly as possible. Having a lot of boilerplate is typically an indication that the language semantics don’t allow you to express the solution in a clear way and you have to write a lot of incidental code. The more code you have to read the more cognitive overhead there is in understanding it and keeping it all in your head.

I find DRY often turns into an antipattern because decoupling is far more important than code reuse in practice. Having a function that supports many different code paths can make it very brittle because any changes to it need to consider all the possible use cases. However, if you have two separate functions that are similar, but can evolve independently then you don’t have that problem. As a rule, it’s better to duplicate code first, and then extract parts that turn out to be general purpose functionality once that’s identified through usage, and to put that code into libraries.

Why wouldn’t they be able to. Russia has a lot of tech talent, and tends to top programming competitions. Also, if this happened I imagine other countries like China would collaborate as well. China alone has a bigger population than all of the west, and a better education system to boot.

Indeed we already see stuff like OpenHarmony which was originally a fork of Android by Huawei due to US sanctions on them. I expect we’re going to be headed into a world of bifurcated technology between G7 and BRICS. As western countries continue to act in a petulant fashion, developers in the rest of the world will have no choice but to go their own way.

👏

Yeah, I’m one of those people who are actually informed on the subject.

When you think the entire world is just western countries. 🤡

Nah, what I’m referring to is the violent coup by the far right that was openly supported by the west. Also, Russia never asked Ukraine to choose between economic association with Russia and Europe. It was western demand that Ukraine had to break economic ties with Russia. Maybe should get your facts straight so you can do more quality trolling.

Only problem being that Ukraine never had nukes. USSR had nukes that were stationed on the territory of Ukraine. When USSR dissolved, Russia became the successor state and inherited the nukes. This has never been in dispute.

Yeah, best they could do because the famine was happening all over USSR. In fact, as anybody who’s not an utter imbecile would know, famines were already prevalent during tsarist times and were one of the major causes for the revolution. Pretty clear who’s the miserable loser here. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
