Or people who think nginx is pronounced engine rather than en-jynx…like hijinks 😱

I also thought latex was latex and I tell you what, I have no plan to correct that error. Because it’s very clearly not an error. It’s latex. I would also accept Le têx in a super french accent :)

If the CEO of Ford drives a Porsche instead of a Ford you view that as a ding for Ford?

It’s clearly intended to be typist, an English word. It’s spelled tipst/taipst.

The y sound is ambiguous without a known pronunciation (tryst is pronounced trist not traist)

Or that’s a sign he’s stupid and overconfident

This is 2025, 40 years after apple mainstreamed the silicon valley “scam investors until you make it” approach.

I want to apply just so I can pronounce it “tipst” during the whole interview.

Nah I think this is fine for all of the software engineers working on 1-person projects at the place they intend to stay the rest of their career.

Good

Ah this is a perfect example, thank you for providing a sample “programmer response”. Lol

It’s never about whether the tester was wrong, its whether we really needed to spend 30 minutes in a 45 minute meeting about project timelines discussing it.

So by this definition testers are annoying due to being super pedantic and precise.

Disagree, I think programmers are annoying in exactly the same way.

The way you phrased it made it sound like you definitely don’t

No

Ah, the no true Scotsman fallacy. Neat.

Your lack of rational thought backed up by facts rather than feelings is why you’re a bad developer.

See I can do it too.

But honestly even saying “nothing about the git cli is archaic” is…well, it’s either disqualifying or Stockholm syndrome, and Stockholm syndrome isn’t real.

That’s tortoise, and have I got news for you: tortoisegit exists.

Why learn an archaic and honestly horrifying command line interface, possibly the worst CLI ever made in the history of computing…when nice normal graphical interfaces work better, have discoverability, have troubleshooting tools, and don’t require memorizing scripture?

Don’t sell yourself short, your low paid profession is also full of incompetent fail children

Congrats discord now owns your code forever

I’m surprised it took two whole days :p

Yeah if you read more of these guys tweets they are clearly in politics. One message tried to claim trump loves kids (to be clear: in the abstract sense, not in the he definitely fucked kids on an island with Epstein sense). Then they tried to twist the words to say “why don’t you love kids”. It was clumsy like you’d expect from someone who is practically a teenager, but the core is an attempt to follow the usual right wing playbook.

Hey now that’s real close to the 65,535 16-bit limit (from 20 years ago)
