you have what i would consider consistently bad takes on this subject

Ah, just saw a comment from OP claiming that Israel was doing "everything possible" to prevent civilian casualties, so yeah, bad take puts it pretty well. What bad faith bs

Your reply refers to a "junior who is nervous" and "how the sausage is made", which makes no sense in the context of someone who just has to review code

They're saying developers dislike having to review other code that's unfamiliar to them, not having their code reviewed.

I used to be principled like you, but this man has the potential to cause death and destruction on a scale so unfathomably larger than one person. Would I prefer he face justice? Absolutely. But at some point "not wishing death on someone" flies in the face of the greater good of humanity

Not to mention the law firm they hired advertises anti-union action, so that should tell you whether they can be trusted to be fair to workers..

Imagine you have to choose a health insurance company to be insured with like you choose a credit card (Visa, Mastercard, etc). Many doctors (shops) only accept certain insurance providers (cards) due to fees and other regulations.

The problem described in this article is when your insurance lists doctors that you can go to that will accept your insurance, but most of them have gone out of business or actually don't accept your particular insurance anymore.

Well yes, I was simplifying because I wanted to address the main (incorrect) criticism by @spartanatreyu@programming.dev. I agree with your comment

Yeah, in Java calling first() on a stream is the same as an early return in a for-loop, where for each element all of the previous stream operations are applied first.

So the stream operation

cars.stream()
    .filter(c -> c.year() < 1977)
    .first()

is equivalent to doing the following imperatively

for (var car : cars) {
    if (car.year() < 1977) return car;
}

Not to mention Kotlin actually supports non-local returns in lambdas under specific circumstances, which allows for even more circumstances to be expressed with functional chaining.

..what? At least with Java Streams or Kotlin Sequences, they absolutely abort early with something like .filter().first().

This is a decent explanation of gradient descent but I'm pretty sure the meme is referencing the color gradients often used to highlight when something is AI generated haha

In solchen Momenten bin ich wieder mal furchtbar dankbar für die DSGVO, die – wenn auch gerne mal absichtlich missverstanden – ein verhältnismäßig sehr solides Grundwerk zum Schutz unserer Daten vor genau solcher unternehmerischer Schikane geschaffen hat.
