I feel your pain. Just spent 12 hours on a take home assignment I'm pretty sure it's not 100%

@retoor if only

@rootshell yea I had one while tell me they were looking for someone with more experience. So the same excuse I was getting 7 years ago. What I was "we want your now skills for your then price"

@TeachMeCode yea the job spec is 4 pages... They're looking for a department, not a guy

@BordedDev might have to start there and then work up to autistic

I mean, all the big frameworks were someone's "I'll build my own" at some point

@dotenvironment Ouch

@dotenvironment that all makes sense but if you just don't go "make up" the office day and still work from home does that then get seen as more leave?

Yea absolutely

When I first started coding at school I thought I was going to be one of those Java only assholes (Java just happens to be what the public schools were teaching at the time) but it turns out that's not really a thing anymore

These days it seems like everything is the main language, plus web stuff which might be a totally different stack to that language's front end frameworks

Then there's all the DevOps stuff, then a lot of jobs also want you to be a whole DBA

I can't actually recall when last I saw a listing for a job that wasn't full stack

What are the consequences if you just don't?

Pulse not required

@antigermanist yea that actually sounds quite awful

Tbh I've become so disillusioned that I'd gladly take one of those pretend jobs where just show up, drink the coffee and leave

Ratio

Yes

@2Fdev2Ftcsh it'd still a newish job so...

No daughter of mine will be getting gil implants so she can marry a goddamn amphibian

@Lensflare I also like to ask them what it was like growing up in black and white

Frequently joke with my parents about how when they were young, everything was made out of lead and the lead had asbestos in it

I always thought (but never did it) that it would be a fine project to make a LinkedIn clone called LinkedOut for connecting with your corporate enemies.

I mean it's not like it could be any more of a pretentious cesspool than LinkedIn

@retoor I swear just make up new terminology all the time

The penguins must just suck it up and accept their tariffs

That's still a lot. I get like 2 most days if I'm honest

@kiki that can't be right. I was 5 when that movie came out and I'm 23 now so...

I've found AI tends to be an expert on things I know nothing about but frequently gets wrong with stuff I'm well versed on

@retoor big depends

Sounds interesting as fuck

Unfortunately my first thought here is "What politician hasn't?"

@antigermgerm it does but that doesn't mean it's dead

Then there's me who is the complete opposite. (Maybe I'm just lazy) I'm like okay but do we actually need an interface for this?
