I wonder if thar number generally goes up, and what it’s looked like over time.

To be completely fair to the attempt, there is a reason we have decent incomes.

wow it does do that. cool

that’s fucking brilliant lol

thank God I can’t read

CS isn’t, but software engineering takes strict approaches to design and development for safety critical systems. I’m not talking about finance applications however.

I’m talking about like flight control computers, valve assist device controllers, medical lab automation and notification systems, weapon platform communication systems.

There is PE licensing for software engineers though?

You mean every error shouldn’t be a 500?

I mean, let’s be honest guys, would we really get the paychecks we do if any software engineer could turn out perfect functioning code on time and in budget for every request?

Higher security clearances requires nationality because there’s a slightly lower probability that someone born in a country will share secrets than someone born outside of it.

You can be a citizen of almost any country without being born there, hence the statement.

A lot of people think I’m joking when I say I’m a good at what I do because I’m a witch doctor with computers. Software Engineering requires experience with the occult, at a minimum.

You are not invited to look at my setup then.

These are clearly put together with care.

Null isn’t unnatural, null just isn’t there.

I like you.

What’s fun is that this is C#, so no limit to the length of function names.

I am working with an in-house “rapid development team.” They have rigorous intake, story and task break down, scheduling of sprints, QA, definition of done, integration test coverage, E2E and min 90% unit test coverage etc. etc.

They have a strict policy of “no code comments, self documenting code only.” They will go in and remove comments that my DevOps team puts in there, because it screws up that policy.

Luckily, we adopted the policy of having local branches with these comments in place. Once they move beyond the project, we’re putting them in.

It’s actually kind of nice coming from C.

I’m reading this and all I can think is “yeah, I too would rather lose a limb than let a necrotic infection spread.”

“A container inside a container!”

See, when I make this argument they look at me like I’m literally Hitler.

To an extent, but I think the concern is that there were still documented device failures in live subjects, and if it’s going to start human trials on quadriplegic they are going to have a tough time convincing IRBs, providers, and patients of it just as effective as existing treatments with side effect profile. As there are none, IRBs are going to really push back on the whole “yeah this will explicitly kill people,” instead of like cancer research “the patient will have treatment with nothing worse than standard treatment of care.”

Or, put another way, in the U.S., a quadriplegic receives no treatment and lives, vs a quadriplegic who under goes the implant and dies from the implant (as specified in the article).

Oh man.

I’m gonna destroy my card again aren’t I?

The NFT as ownership should really become the standard. Instead of having any people “authorizing” yadadada it’s done completely by machine and traceable.

No middlemen needed. Just I own x, this says I own x. I can sell you x, and you get ownership of x immediately. No “waiting 45 days to close” or “2 day transaction close” or even “title search verification.” Too many middlemen benefitting from the current system to allow NFT to replace them though. That’s the actual challenge.
