RIP This man is an absolute legend. <3

hopefully this is a sarcastic comment. T_T

High quality education and resources being gate-kept makes less sense moving forward. Easiest solution is to let a LOT more people in regardless of background. Letting more people in means you get more money anyways. Who cares if letting in more people makes things less "elite". Elitism is cringe.

This is an awesome blog. Learned a quite a bit! And bookmarked for future reference! <3 :)

I'm sure they'll change things because the community really doesn't like it. I believe.

I currently have 0 years of industry experience. Interested in compilers/computer graphics/gamedev but I can do web dev and fullstack. :) <3

I didn't realize it was an april fools joke until i read the reddit comments T_T

is it me or did he just misspell chatGPT 3 times and nobody noticed?

> Top-level competitive programmers have libraries of functions and algorithms that they copy-paste from, and so the end result is more like a spelling bee than anything else.

I don't think you've kept up with or watched any "top-level" competitive programmer solve problems. Saying all competitive programmers do is copy-paste is like saying all programmers do is google.

This is quite the ignorant perspective. Competitive programming is much more than just for tech interviews. It's allowing ambitious people who care about algorithms and solving problems to learn, have fun, and improve their programming ability. I think it's healthy to facilitate such activities.

I feel like at a certain point of efficiency there are diminishing returns. A good analogy is typing speed. You don't need to have 200 wpm to be productive. Everybody adapts to how efficient they need to be at what they do. Vim is not a requirement for being productive. If it was, it would be the most popular editor. I also don't think the person you are replying to is saying that it isn't important to "master" your tools. I think they are just saying the editor that you use isn't the most important thing and I agree with that sentiment.

this is a good resource but also don't forget to apply these by thinking and building out projects. If you don't use the knowledge, there's a high chance you'll lose the knowledge.

Firefox's "Take Screenshot" feature is too good.

You are probably overthinking this.

All it takes is to start talking.

Also not all friendships have to be the same.

Some are in person, some are online, some are not as frequent, some are inactive, and some might be gone.

it is what it is broskies. appreciate every moment :)

As a person in college right now, I think you should do what you think is best for you. If you end up regretting not going to college, you can always go back and get your bachelors and pay for it yourself.

As for why I went to college; I made that decision because I didn't really know what I wanted to do or where I was headed and I wasn't experienced at all in programming or any CS related topics.

The main benefit for me was being in an environment where I was introduced to new CS topics/ideas. As for having a deep understanding of those topics and how to implement them, I had to self study/teach myself.

My point is, is that you shouldn't feel pressured to do anything. You need to make a decision that works best for you because the value of uni/college is, and will be, different for everyone. :)

I want to write a C compiler in Rust for fun :)

This is too cool

absolutely 100 percent.

I've had these exact thoughts in my head XD. I agree that a lot of other jobs deserve higher pay but aren't given higher pay due to economical reasons.

I find this hilarious XD. Unfortunately some of these aren't impossible.

Merry Christmas! Hopefully everybody here is in a good place :)

CS/programming for me was a good balance between practical application and theory. Spending more time programming and getting better at programming will probably land you a higher salary than if you were to spend your time learning complex math which you might/might not use.

Hi, I know this isn't a "Who's Hiring" thing but I would like to get some fulltime offers. check my profile for my github. Any recruiters? LUL.

Weird how this came out on the day I bomb my probability test. T_T

I've tried helix and it doesn't seem as customizable as neovim/vim. I also prefer neovim/vim's default keybindings much more. While I can't see helix replacing neovim/vim, I can see people using it, as it has defaults that could appeal to some people. It's also fast.
