But of course, spreading tobacco smoke and reducing the IQ and creativity of the whole human population, which in turn causes them to be unable to find a proper replacement for the things that you are against, while also increasing the rate of ageing of everyone, is pretty cool.
Just make good enough solar panels that can run machines to turn your faeces into Tasty Wheat and all your excreted gases into useful ones and you can get rid of all the animals and insects you want.
Oh and you will need to cover the top of your structures on Earth with them and constantly maintain them against environmental wear and also make sure you have enough energy required for continuous micro-terraforming required to keep the place habitable for humans after the following ecological collapse.
No one will care if you aren’t either a company earning millions or are a huge public figure
And that is not just a company or "capitalism" problem. That's a society problem.
If you are not some public figure, if you cry out "thief", you can expect people to tell you to "shut up" instead^[instead of admonishing the thief for its thievery], while the thief, who might have some amount of local power, will get to smack you right in front of them.
Why? Because to them, you are the problem for making too much noise. Because you don't let bygones be bygones.
If someone has the gall to steal in front of everyone and not be said anything before you cry, perhaps you want to be looking at the bystanders with a fair amount of suspicion. In our case however, we already know the bystanders (talking about governments here) are guilty and that they are already all too powerful and the others are just standing too far and like ants to the thieves.
Although these websites are still doable.
The kind I absolutely loathe are the ones which, if I make the window width smaller (because the website is not using the space any way), the text in the website further reduces with exact proportion.
At that point, I consider if what I am reading is actually worth clicking the "Reader Mode" button or should I just Ctrl+W
There are some times when I wish I were better at regexp and scripting.
Times when I am writing a similar kind of thing again and again, which is just different enough (and small enough number of repetitions) that it doesn't seem viable to make the script.
At those times, I tend to think - maybe Cursor would have done this part well - but have no real idea since I have never used it.
On the other hand, if I had a scripting endpoint from clang, ^[which would have taggified parts of code (in the same tone as "parts of speech") like functions declaration, return type, function name, type qualifier etc.], I would have used that to make a batch processor for even a repetition as small as 10 and wouldn't have thought once about AI.
instead of just using a proper IDE with go-to-definition
I have seen people use an IDE that has the functionality, but searching it instead.
And then not finding it because it is in an out of project header, even though the IDE provides an F1 help (documentation) for that symbol.
Never have I had to implement any kind of ridiculous algorithm to pass tests with huge amounts of data in the least amount of memory, as the competitive websites show.
It has been mostly about:
Finding the correct library for a job and understanding it well, to prevent footguns and blocking future features
Design patterns for better build times
Making sane UI options and deciding resource alloc/dealloc points that would match user interaction expectations
cmake
But then again, I haven't worked in FinTech or Big Data companies, neither have I made an SQL server.
Were we talking about psychopaths, or bad ppl?
