Dynamic programming. I should have just chased a check rather than trying to save the world

SME (pronounced smee)

My company is flooded with SMEs who aren’t even good, let alone experts at anything

Sure, but 80% of people stopped reading after that first word because of “socialism”

Who is Steve Jobs?

Pretty easily: that’s the whole point of the concept of “reputation”

I sure hope so. Pretty hard to sell cars if you don’t even know where they are

1. Don’t be a dick
2. Don’t be a pussy
3. Don’t be an asshole

I use it as a working Google and to make goofy pictures of ideas I have/tattoos I want

Isn’t most of Linux open source?

Plus that whole thing where record companies got caught price-fixing CDs. And the other thing where they got caught installing rootkits from CDs

You don’t hear about it because the two major parties both oppose them and have nothing to argue about

I’m going wait for the follow up: showing how CEOs don’t prioritize human welfare over profits

Just gonna throw this idea out there:

What if they hired a bunch of engineers who graduated from sketchy, unaccredited colleges in foreign countries and paid them half as much much?

“Not blowing up later” would be part of the problem being solved

Engineering for future requirements almost always turn out to be a net loss. You don’t build a distillation column to process 8000T of benzene if you only need to process 40T

“Unregulated capitalism” sounds like the Soviet Union to you?

I didn’t answer your question because I don’t give a fuck about you, and also I wasn’t the person you responded to. Your lack attention to detail explains why you’re so confused

Sounds like a problem for later

Flippancy aside: the fundamental rule in all engineering is solving the problem you have, not the problem you might have later

No, this is Patrick

I don’t love AI, but programming is engineering. The goal is to solve a problem, not to be the best at solving a problem.

Also I can write shitty code without help anyway

Easy: The “win” is when all money not absolutely required for existence is in the hands of the bourgeoisie

Unregulated capitalism converges on monopolies and subsistence wages
