@Gators1 I bet some complain the colon key gets sticky.

Haha, he said “fill the hole”

Maybe there’s a demand for it but, personally, I don’t understand why the VS Code developers keep adding new editor features. It was perfect a few years ago. Every time they add something I’ve got to google random terms until I find what the thing is called and then hunt through the settings to work out how to turn it off. When I try it on a new machine without my own settings synchronized there’s so much extraneous shit when I edit (minimap, codelens, code actions etc etc) it’s like playing a fucking video game. I can no longer see my code sometimes. Do people like this stuff?

Nerds are weird. Why do you go through all this shit just to build something that’s basically useless?

Just lie on your resume like everyone else these days.

@Gators1 Thankfully I haven’t had to submit a resume in over a decade. It’s going to be painful if/when I have to update it. I can barely remember what i had for dinner last night let alone what I was working on all that time.

@Lob12 might be but it’s hard to know. There’s a real one from Twitter where they demanded X years experience in some library and rejected the guy who actually wrote the library (which itself was younger than the number of years experience they were asking for).
IT recruiters are (generally) really fucking awful.

I misremembered some of the details and conflated two different tweets
-
But he still got rejected!
Who’s the bitch!

Has to be a joke/fake, no? lol
As Hog says, I don’t think so. Imagine you are supposed to recruit people based on their capability to speak Chinese and you have a Chinese thesaurus and nothing else. I imagine that’s how most tech recruiters feel.
