What's the dumbest reason you've learned a programming language?

Jump

  • That’s a good reason. I used my Java skills to crack a shareware (a solitaire game) because I had no money.

    Jump

  • Ruby because it was the first popular Japanese language. I wrote a few useful scripts and it was nice. Then it was swallowed by Rails, and killed by Python. No one uses it around me but it was fun.

    • What can we learn from the Trump shooting and the Uvalde shooting ?

    Jump

  • Like Europe.

  • AI spam I guess.

    • Open Letter: "The European Union must keep funding free software"

    Jump

  • They don't protect my privacy because they have a disadvantage though. That's not at all what the GDPR is all about. Same for the other laws.

    • YSK there is a massive Google Doc of U.S. gynecologists that will tie your tubes without asking about your kids, marital status or age.

    Jump

  • they don’t generally harass guys

    Actually most of them do.

    • Nintendo Switch Online Gains Three Previously Japan-Only GBA Platformers | Tech Raptor

    Jump

  • That and the fact that they released 3 games instead of a thousands games all at once 10 years ago.

    • Senior North Korean diplomat defects to South

    Jump

  • At least we still have best Russia, which is… the best Russia we’ll ever have.

    • The app that promised to ‘use AI to weed out daters with STIs’ has been shut down

    Jump

  • Yet another AI scam is never a bad idea if you want to get funds.

    • Ex Redditors of Lemmy what made you come on over? What happened at Reddit that you made the switch?

    Jump

  • The API changes, and that reddit now blocks VPN users which means that I can’t even browse the site to read.

    • Is everyone here leftist?

    Jump

  • No.

    • In your career, have you found a drama free workplace?

    Jump

  • Maybe try to detect or feel if the person in front of you is really a nice person or if he’s faking it.

    The last HR guy I met was so nice to me and enthusiastic that it was really suspicious. I had met real psychopaths before and I was careful. But in the end, he really wanted to take care of the coworkers, and it took me one whole month to understand this.

    • In your career, have you found a drama free workplace?

    Jump

  • I’ve been working for almost 10 companies in 20 years, and I have only found 2 drama free workplaces so far. It’s random and I don’t think there are signs that could show you whether a job is good or bad.

    Most HR people are happy when they hire you but it usually means nothing, sorry.

    Last but not least, drama free could also mean "we’re gonna fire everybody in a few months," which makes the choices more difficult to make.

    • A NYTimes photographer took a picture of Trump a moment before he was struck by a bullet

    Jump

  • I didn't ask you anything, you must be confusing me with someone else.

    Jump

  • Nice. Still don't care.

    • Do any of you shave your eyebrows when your cats die?

    Jump

  • Both are dead, what was your reasoning? That there once was a tradition that did stuff about some other stuff?

    • High heels footwear should not exist.

    Jump

  • OK.

  • And dinosaurs disagree with the pharaohs. You lose.

  • explain

    • Resurrecting Internet Explorer -- the nasty threat impacting potentially millions of Windows 10 and 11 users

    Jump

  • This is why the tech world infuriates me. Back in the 2000s I already knew that ActiveX was a proprietary piece of shit, yet companies still spent millions using it because, fuck it, the slaves will spend all their deadlines switching to a new technology, instead of using their brains and writing cross-platform applications in neutral languages. Sorry for the rant but I've seen this way too many times. They burn money because they can and they don't care.
