Here I am on 2024.7 waiting for card-mod to unfuck itself.
Scolded me for swearing at it.
"You'll fucking know when I'm swearing at you," was my reply to that shit the last time I gave it a spin (after it regurgitated nonsense after many prompts specifically asking for not nonsense).
Counterpoint: If you think you said something stupid, you're entitled to delete it. Don't feel obligated to hang your ass out there and take a beating for a cold take.
Repokémon is an amazing name.
The answer has been "No" a few times and boy does that suck.
"No one has ever attempted something so convoluted/silly/impossible before. Guess we get to see if we're actually programmers or not."
I made sure answering, "Has someone figured this out already?" is a formal step in defining project scope at my company.
Donphan is legit, too.
This person couldn't be bothered to search "Phanpy Mastodon" to learn more, literally everything is non-trivial to them. They probably have to remember to breathe.
In my experience, and in the experience of my coworkers/contemporaries, our formal education taught us how to program which is distinct from which language we program in. For instance, my Java dev friend learned to program in C++ because that's what was being instructed. I was forced to learn ActionScript 2 and then was forced to migrate to ActionScript 3, because that's what was being taught. The experience of programming something and iterating on it was far more valuable than knowing a language like C++ or ActionScript.
Languages come and go, some faster than others, and you'll eventually get to a point where your personal preferences stop mattering as much as which language is best for the task at hand.
PHP is dead. Long live PHP.
