It looks exactly like c++ and c# and java and probably others.

Which language are we talking here? Cpp? Because typeof hasn’t ever seemed useful to me in how I use cpp or how I have ever really used a language. I also remember it being criticized in java class more than 20 years ago when OOP was solely preached, even for scientific people like me.

It’s just modeling humans. I was only a lab TA for two semesters, and I caught so many fake data sets.

They call me baby J out on these streets

Ok. I’m also not crazy.

My hairline has started receding very rapidly. There’s there’s these fine hairs all over my desk, and I see the photo I took when joining directly before turning on my camera every meeting.

Be nice.

Jesus Christ. Just be nice.

Why is no one on Lemmy nice.

Again, who is saying that? I don’t find janitorial duty shameful neither do I find sanitation engineer shameful. That’s you

I guess you’d also rather be called butcher or barber than surgeon?

After all, rebranding implies you’re ashamed.

My bologna has a first name…

Tell me about it…

I left my more mature company for a startup.

I feel like Tyler Durden sometimes.

A more standard definition in my tenure in academia is that scientists solve problems because they want to know the answer. Engineers solve problems because they want the problem to be solved.

In any case, the difference is just, heh, academic.

I’m very much the latter.

Who is saying that?

There’s too much virtue signaling here. No engineer thinks poorly of the trades. That’s the point of the conversation.

I just made a joke about how burger flippers can be called engineers, and I have a PhD.

Agreed.

I might also argue that those people are all still engineers.

Engineer just means “problem solver”. Everyone gets paid for solving problems.

The real question in my head is how far does this go?

Sometimes the problem is that these burgers need flipping. Protein disk translocation engineers? I’m cool with that.

I always thought about going to be a farmer. Then I watched some videos from farmers and realized they are also engineers.

A large faction of engineers, especially software-type engineers, have these types of hobbies.

I’m sitting here right beside the heirloom quality (compared to most furniture) coffee table I made in my garage with my nearly complete wood shop.

I make stuff in two ways in my day job. I design something and someone else makes it, or it’s just some idea as software.

Engineers are a type. We’re just wired differently from most other people.

I mean, I would’ve thought that story was false, but this makes me rethink that.

Every denial from him is a confession.

Not only do we know from early on that trump has as small penis but that he’s insecure about it.

Can you imagine it? The president of the United States, arguably the most powerful and effectual person in the whole world, is so mentally unwell that he is insecure about the size of his penis?

I forgot about Reince Priebus.

Why are all the people he works with so stereotypically evil?

Since this thread is getting irrational, and Lemmy is pretty toxic in this way, I’ll reply up here and take my down votes to agree with you.

ZeroCool needs to stop trying to be offended and actually read what you’re saying.

Of course archery doesn’t glorify bows and arrows. It may glorify archery, but there is nothing wrong with archery unless you are using it for evil.

Edit: ahh as predicted. Can we please be more understanding and less obstinate?

This specific thing? Or just an iron chunk of some type?

The reason I know about this is the social aspect of trying to get people with endemic iron deficiency to use a supplement. If you’re from the more industrialized would, I’d figure you’d take supplements that, while more expensive, may or may not be more effective.

Certainly makes sense.
