I mean without documentation… what is an API?

Think of it as a function you can unleash on others…

Aka “I have zero responsibility here.”

We are talking about about engineers whose careers are based around abstractions.

It’s funny how accountability is just ignored so that certain folks get to feel good.

Having worked in tech companies for decades, I’ve never once felt comfy with letting computer science majors just take the wheel… but I’m sure someone think this hits “hard”.

Historically it’s blamed on UX. PMs don’t create products they run MS Excel.

The gators are everyone that interacts with your code.

Shit got real then.

That right there. If 70s rent control can’t even allow for a super hero, then fuck it… close the books.

Holy shit that was weird.

The important thing is to be important. Engineering has to deal with teammates that don’t have these problems, so they equalize.

The important thing is that you find gratification regardless…

Do you feel good? Need a tummy rub?

There wasn’t an excuse in the first place. It’s kinda amazing anyone can say centering a div was ever hard, especially if you have a computer science degree.

I mean sure it’s different from say object-oriented programming… but it’s frankly weird in a professional setting hearing grown adults with plenty of experience struggle over basic front-end work.

It’s like the end of Micheal Clayton.

Whatever gives air cover to ignorance.

The important part is that the dumbest possible interpretation gets the most logical support.

Meanwhile in reality css totally confounds the well paid experts in c# and the whole world suffers.

But yea fonts…

If it makes a dev’s life easier there’s no reason not to upend half the planet.

Hell yes!

Does your wristwatch carry a history of use in terrorism? Did it once raise flags at the border if you had more than one? I’ll wait…

You didn’t miss anything, it’s a terrible comic. It’s just saying the castaway wants to stay and the woman says yup 3 times in a row. The beacon is unexplained and makes no difference. There’s no point, no punch line, no depth, no dimension. It’s a small sentence about leaving material trappings that didn’t even need 3 panels, an island or a companion.

He says a thing, she’s say yup 3 times, they’re on an island…

Left in a field to rot? You say this why? You assume someone graciously assigned value to trash and that’s why museums are full? Why would you think that?

That’s nothing like what actually happened though. But in case I’m wrong please tell us all how the royal arts of India, various different African countries, statues of marble and plates of gold were magically removed from their country of origin and ended up Britain.

Because you claim they were just rotting in a field? Do you know how far off the mark that is?

Yea but don’t forget, since I’m not getting 100% of what I want, the way I want, achieved precisely when I want it… then they are both the same.
