Exactly bro! Now keep on rocking in the free world and understand that hubris alone does not a good programmer make but a good programmer is hubristic. Therefore hubris is a poor heuristic no matter what any tech bro tells you.
Therefore you should at least make an effort to dress up for an interview because you never know if it's your last chance to make any sort of impression.
And let your hubris shine that way instead of choosing the casual path that every other one will certainly choose.
Edit: of course this argument is lost on all the beautiful minds who spare no effort at shabby chic
Humble people don't go around talking about how humble they are, much less sideways virtue signalling on how patient and pathetic they are.
If you're going to blow your own trumpet out of the side of your mouth you should consider a career in politics and leave program writing to the professionals.
Edit! Oh that's not hubristic enough you milk fed cherry pickers? Why not report me to the principal!
"What a billionaire CEO is telling you when he shows up to a shareholder meeting in a hooded sweatshirt or athleisure wear that costs more than most people's mortgage is that your sense of dignity means nothing to him: he is above you no matter how both of you are dressed."
I think I've scraped the bottom of the barrel of YouTube content and ads, the worst are these Japanese weight loss commercials.
How's your situation, are you still learning and pursuing your own journey? I can totally relate to the feeling of being out of work but I believe strongly that our work is a calling and we must listen to our intuition on the journey to mastery of our art.
We have a far too narrow view of what constitutes social media.
Every medium is a social one if you think about it and every social medium is political.
The medium has and always will be the message and when you get to the core you understand the message is simply the audience.
Do you think "primitive" civilizations compared to ours didn't have social media before the advent of the tweet?
They were operating on levels we haven't even begun to understand in our foolish pride.
We're as primitive as we were at the invention of electric light and our technological advancements have outpaced our morality. We're just amplifying the hysteria and confusion with our automated algorithms and always-on engagement and now every poor schmuck has a voice where once it was limited to the elites. You should be grateful that Twitter has democratized the inane blatherings of the proletariat to drown out the voices of so called authority.
100%. The bank I used to work at had a part of the employee handbook dedicated to what happens if you're kidnapped. We're just being naive and casual as we are wont to do. Bro don't worry have another free granola bar.
And in fact one of the devs was poached by a shady bunch of foreign looking suits who would have fit right in with big brother.
In all fairness you have a split second between the light coming on and the video stream initializing to err hide your shame. What are you doing in front of your computer with no pants on? Naked yoga?
The irony of this is too much. The guy who pioneered privacy invasion as a philosophy is guarding his own privacy. He should have a Facebook live stream following him 24/7
Hey it's good of you to read the depraved rantings of a code lunatic. If I could tell you about my journey through software you'd maybe understand where I'm coming from.
Ever considered that everyone is doing everything all wrong and you're just feeding into the frenzy?
That's where I've come as a professional. I couldn't give a fuck any more about anyone's problems and I've learned that it has everything to do with creating pathways for people to communicate.
People are difficult creatures and academia has made us into basket cases unable to tie our own shoelaces without help from someone who will evaluate us and dangle a carrot in front of us for the effort.
How about getting over yourself with your corporate lorem ipsum and use the technology at your disposal to fix this dumpster fire of a planet we've made for ourselves?
Therefore you should at least make an effort to dress up for an interview because you never know if it's your last chance to make any sort of impression.
And let your hubris shine that way instead of choosing the casual path that every other one will certainly choose.
