  • No, bombs and the defence industry was not was I was on about. I see your point. Yes there's been some downturn recently, but the tech industry has always been cyclical. It's difficult to get hired today, and there's certainly favoritism towards senior employees.

    My point was simply about economics; supply and demand. In my university, about half of all degrees issued are in the arts. If employers want someone with that kind of training, then they have all of the selection in the world. Compare this to a tech company. If a tech company wants to expand their business and they need to implement a technology to do that, depending on what technology it is, there might be like, 1k.. maybe 100k, maybe 1M people on the planet that have that specialty? Employers are going to pay a lot more for a person with that kind of training.

  • I straight up never got a nice answer from StackOverflow on this. Say you have 5 classes, each requiring access to the data members/functions of the others. What's a nice way to solve this problem? I've thought of only two nice shit methods:

    • Pass pointers/shared-pointers etc to each class, but not through the constructor but a setter function
    • Pass lambdas or std::function everywhere. Yuck! Still doesn't put each object in a valid state in the constructor.
  • blasphemy!

     
        
    void main(int argc, char ** argv, char ** envp)

  • Jesus, call Polievre lots of things but seriously, a threat to democracy? Damnit, I vote Left and this just makes me realize the Tyee isn’t a particularly good or vetted news source. (Admittedly, what did I expect, you do get what you pay for.)

    Completely agree. I think this article is nothing but "rage-bait"... no wait... "fear-mongering"? Somewhere in the middle.

  • Yes! Thank you

  • What? Because of the elections? I feel like it's always been an excellent time to delete social media accounts haha

  • They updated their description of how their search engine works. The new description is still factual, while being slightly easier to understand. The new description also has some fancy marketing flair. They still make it pretty clear that they use other search engines via anonymous calls.

    I wouldn't call that shady at all... Unless maybe I'm completely missing the point here.

  • I think this is a fairly benign move with a valid explanation that has been taken out of context in order to be more inflamitory

  • Wow. The L2 is 16 times larger than what I have now. I can't imagine the breakneck performance.

  • Not the best? I like high effort posts and comments...

  • I used to follow /r/Canadianhousing2 on reddit. Very right wing, conservative, simplistic views on the housing crisis in Canada. I realized eventually it was a cesspool of hate and racism and stopped.
