I was hacking scripts and web shit together in perl, python and php for many years before learning C, and just a couple months learning C/C++ made me understand so many more basic concepts than all previous years experiences combined.
Address are written for humans.
For machines, the address line and postal code is the only important part, the rest is encoded in the postal code and can be left off.
Nah, our generation had to tinker with shit to get it working. Kids these days have it easy, which is good from a user perspective, but fails to train them how any of it actually works at a deeper level.
No one has to install a device driver anymore.
It’s a beginners book filled with a mix of bad and good advice, which takes considerable experience to separate the two. Those who can point out all the bad advice already don’t need the book, and newer developers will pick up absolutely atrocious coding advice. There’s simply better books that target beginners better, like The Pragmatic Programmer.
So when you are on-boarding junior devs that have bought into the clean code/SOLID dogma, you’re spending several months beating all their terrible coding habits out of them.
He’s using the ancient rhetorical device of “I know you are, but what am I?”.

Unfortunately Nova Scotia was already called that before it joined.
Oh wow, I’ve seen this guys shorts start popping up constantly. He seems like he understands the algorithm enough to explode
Seems it got much worse.
Seems like it’s going great for the developer.
I took a compiler course focused on optimization and porting. So I worked with x86 and ARM. There’s very little reason in modern computing to write assembly by hand, but it’s still useful to be able to read and understand.
