Do you do actual arguments or do you just do ad hominem if someone calls you out?

So how bad must a terrorist organization be to justify de-platforming them? It seems to be pretty hard to do.

I bet grandpa never was a blue collar worker, such a hypocrite.

You could argue that the credit card could be used to prevent opening a new account as soon as the trial expires.

This is bullshit, but that’s what I would say if i needed to defend douchebag business practices.

I wonder if there is anything in the world which hasn’t been stock-photoed yet.

IMO, as long as you keep doing it every day, there is not really a bad way to learn anything.

Libraries are absolutely exactly that. The problem I see is that because this profession is so young, we do not really know how to do anything. For most use cases, there are multiple tools, languages and libraries available, it’s a lot of work to find out which to pick.

I am sure that when people started building hats, there was a lot of different ways to do it. Many techniques must have been pretty shitty. Noone knew what the best way is, but eventually, everyone agreed to one (general) shape.

It’s possible that the same thing will happen to programming as well. Maybe one day, there will not be more tools for coding REST-APIs (or something similar, in case we find something better than REST), because the one tool everyone uses is already perfect.

My AOP Professor once said that today, we build software like medival smiths built swords: The customer would describe how he would want his sword to look and feel like, and the smith crafted each and every one individually. This led to very unique and well fit, but also very expensive products.

He said that we should aim to build software products like the industrialization revolutionalised manufacturing: Assembling many modular parts into something, instead of hand crafting everything. In his opinion, this will lead to faster and cheaper development.
