The Virgin Programmer vs The Chad Coder

Name: Anonymous 2017-08-08 9:06

Latest chan meme applied to /prog/

Virgin Programmer:
Has the latest macbook loaded with latest compilers
Codes in modern functional style
Code is visually pleasing, fully indented
All variables and functions are descriptively named
Comments are filled with explanations and relevant information
Produces portable, safe code that is debugged, linted, statically analyzed and theorem proved ad nauseum
Code almost never crashes
Every bug report is answered with patches and profuse apologizing

The Chad Coder:
Codes in direct, brutal imperative style
Thinks recursion is a meme
Doesn't indent anything
All variables are one letter, functions are random verbs with numbers
Code crashes several times per hour
Never changed his computer
Produces code that "works on my machine"
Debugging consists of console messages peppered randomly through code
Comments consist of curses and threats to other programmers and software
When someone posts a bug report, laughs at it, marks it wontfix or claims you're using his software wrong

and it seems especially stupid for anyone to move into the US now.
Lol, we just have a bunch of antifas and neo-nazis LARPing and beating each other up in the streets. Aside from some of the Soviet style censorship at the behest of entities like ICANN and the Alt-Right finding creative ways of publishing samizdat, nobody here gives a fuck. If he's worried about Trump, he's just a paper tiger, he'll fold just like every other Republican before him. I find the leftist reaction to be amusing, but yet so predictable.

The uncanny resemblance to late Weimar republic is hard to ignore.

Weimar comparisons are usually done by people who know nothing about Weimar beyond ``it was chaos and caused the nazis''. For starters, the USG isn't completely paralyzed by internal conflicts and the economy isn't crashing through the ground.

The "US economy" is bullshit, you have to consider the amount of poor and homeless.
1.The size of middle class, minimum wage and welfare are getting smaller.
2.People have more advanced means of communication than Weimar and can organize much faster.
3.US has tons of private firearms, magnifying any civil threat.
4.Media/internet are filled with polarized and hostile echo chambers pumping propoganda 24/7.

Xarn's response to questions about his ``war'' comment:
I don't know. Germany only had part of it get better for a few decades after WW2, and without a power like the Soviet Union to push things in the right direction it's not likely that will happen this time.
The most realistic thing to hope for is probably a Paris Commune type of scenario/series of scenarios, somewhere in the Mountain States or PNW, away from anywhere too economically or strategically important so it's not an immediate priority for the weakened military command to want to reclaim. The longer it manages to stay independent, the less likely it is to be re-annexed, especially if there are a bunch of them. I'd consider throwing in with that, even if it'll still almost certainly end in disaster.

I don't think it's likely to happen, though. Things only ever get worse now, not better.

No, we're not quite at the level of Weimar, but we're well on our way. The sexual degeneracy, the dollar not worth as much as it used to be, people dying from the opioid epidemic, 42 million in poverty, nearly $20 trillion in debt according to usdebtclock.org all that's needed is much worse economics conditions than what is at present. Pretty sick society, not much different from Weimar if you ask me.

Degeneracy is a buzzword, inflation in the US and hyperinflation in the WR are two completely distinct beasts, and US debt is basically meaningless (especially when compared to the WR's). Who is going to collect the US's debts?
all that's needed is much worse economics conditions than what is at present
I.e. the most important thing is missing. You also completely skipped over the government where tons of small parties had to form coalitions and compromised with each other until nothing could happen. The USA is effectively a two party state, for fuck's sake. How the is that ``not much different''?

The current US is diseased, but it is nothing like the Weimar Republic. If you want to make doomsayer comparisons, why don't you go for the fall of Rome? At least that makes you look like you read classical texts.

Not really. In the US, it's just a much softer form. The fundamentals remain.
and US debt is basically meaningless (especially when compared to the WR's).
$20 Trillion is meaningless? Average debt per citizen being ~$61,000 is meaningless? What?
Who is going to collect the US's debts?
The countries listed in http://ticdata.treasury.gov/Publish/mfh.txt I imagine. Though, those countries also have lots of their own debt.
You also completely skipped over the government where tons of small parties had to form coalitions and compromised with each other until nothing could happen. The USA is effectively a two party state, for fuck's sake.
There's also many internal factions within those two parties; effectively emulating some of the same aspects that you see in multi-party democracies. Not every member of the GOP is pro-Trump, which is why not everything he wants done gets through in even a Republican controlled House and Senate. I remember the opposite happening when Obama was president, where there were Dems who were against him and he couldn't get things done in a Democratic controlled Congress. I don't expect it to get better over time, it will degenerate to the point where nothing could happen, just like Weimar.
The current US is diseased, but it is nothing like the Weimar Republic. If you want to make doomsayer comparisons, why don't you go for the fall of Rome? At least that makes you look like you read classical texts.
Rome is also a great example, but Weimar is much more recent. Another thing is the USA doesn't have a Treaty of Versailles to accelerate the decline, either, but the fundamentals of what made Weimar, Weimar yet are here nonetheless.

It's a far-left mirror of the far-right. It's funny, Harold Covington wants to establish the Northwest Front in the Pacific Northwest and Xarn thinks the left will establish communes there as well. I guess that's the future, since centrism seems to be slowly collapsing.

Ah, not responding to anything I wrote instead resorting to hand-waving and sarcasm since you don't actually have an argument. How predictable. And then some wonder why an ever increasing amount of people no longer listen to "experts" trotted out by publications such as the New York Times.

You could have read your and my posts again and realized what I was responding to; it was pretty obvious. However, escape to meta is easier and lets you jump into tangential rants about the NYT, so of course that's the better option.
