"makes sense, it's financially unfeasible"

> Engages in pointless wars


The Iran war has points, namely preventing a dedicated American enemy from getting nuclear weapons, contributing to Trump's legacy, and probably something to do with Israel. The problem is that it can't be won with current USA capabilities and everyone not in MAGA already knew this yet Trump started it anyway. The Ukrainians even offered drone defences before it started and were publically rebuffed by Trump. The ignorance and hubris of the Trump administration is truly remarkable.

We need to work on a common understanding of the word "pointless".

Yeah but what about when you have to read code by others who didn't care for this? At this point, code comments have lost all meaning

I hate to break it to you, comments were mostly useless.

Gonna start using that one


These comments make me wonder if people were unable or unwilling to use search engines effectively


I really hope all these guns give up smoking sometime soon...

The annoyance is real, and honestly? It's worth sitting with it.


indeed


This "OS" label reminds me of ms with ".NET", a choice they definitely seemed to regret

This is why I'm still primarily using tab complete. Maybe will spin up an agent here and there to add tests or for repetitive work where I can say "follow the approach I just did for this one case across all remaining cases"


More of an FYI. Always preferred using it over news.ycombinator.com and happened to notice its expired.


What was the original URL? I guess it redirect to the main page and the HN server updates it automatically.

Anyway, send an email to hn@ycombinator.com so dang/tomhow can fix it (or ask the correct person to fix it). Many times threads go unnoticed.


Nobody is reviewing this, right?


Nobody said you should? Some people merely enjoy programming more than engineering.


> Nobody said you should?

This is dishonest. Your quip was to imply that I'm reducing what is otherwise a fun activity to an automation, on the basis of a purity test.

> Some people merely enjoy programming more than engineering.

And I haven't said otherwise, so I'm not sure what point youre trying to make. My initial goal was to provide my own viewpoint on how to enjoy the process while taking advantage of modern tools, not to tell people they shouldn't enjoy programming more than engineering.
