You can also optimize this a bit.

You can use Activator.CreateInstance instead of reflecting and invoking the constructor.

You can also call MethodInfo.Invoke, you don't need to create a delegate.

Also worth noting that Source Generators have replaced the need for reflection in many cases.

This guy needs to be in fucking prison. What is it going to take. Fuck.

Not sure reading comprehension is tied to typos on a mobile. I was referring to the title of the post. No need to be rude friend.

This is obviously fucked up. But they are clearly intentionally downplaying that he pulled a knife when stopped. He wasn't shot for the fair lol

In the UK unless your parents are particularly poor it is not that common to support them.

We have a socialised pension that most should be able to live on. And most people have private or government pensions as well.

I was talking more generally about LLMs here

I've found they're great as a learning tool where decent docs are available. Or as an interactive docs you can ask follow up questions to.

We mostly use c# and it's amazing at digging into the MS docs to pull out useful things from the bcl or common patterns.

Our new juniors got up to speed so fast by asking it to explain stuff in the existing codebases. Which in turn takes pressure off more senior staff.

I got productive in vuejs in a large codebase in a couple days that way.

Using to generate actual code is insanely shit haha It is very similar to just copy pasting code and hacking it in without understanding it.

That's my thinking. If this is the best they can come up with there must not be a lot going on.

I think with http request failures losing the status code can be a real pain. There's a big difference between 400, 401, 404 and 500 for instance.

I wouldn't call bad readability a loaded gun really. Your dev tools will hopefully make it pretty easy to learn the type. It should be a minor inconvenience at best.

The problem with dynamic typing is you can't always figure out what the type is even with investigation as it can be lots of things based on what is passed or returned. It also allows incorrect values to be passed.

People will indeed make that readability argument but if the type is not obvious and important to understanding the code then it likely shouldn't be used there.

Still not sure what you mean. It hasn't ended after people have been murdered.

auto isn't dynamic typing it's just type inference. It still has a fixed type you just don't have to write it. Like var in C#.

Lambdas are just a way of defining methods in place. It has nothing to do with callbacks.

But you're spot on for memory safety. Managing it yourself is risky and if it can be managed at zero cost it seems stupid not to.

Always a nice nostalgia trip when aol or msn links show up lol

People are regularly murdered in schools. It doesn't change anything.

It's not a thing in other countries

At the end of the day if they can afford it and don't want to change you've got to ask yourself if it really matters?

I know it's silly to pay over the odds for something but it's up to them really.

Pretty much is in reality. But not literally zero, no.

Yeah it's like a 0 effort thing to try

It has an orange end and triggers on it which marks it as a toy gun. So they'd be fine most likely. But it's still a stupid move.
