Nation-states were a stupid idea to begin with
I think it has more to do with maintaining a manufacturing base for defense than it is about jobs or the economy.
I was a teenager who wanted to be a 1337 haxxor so I found out what warez were, and then wanted to play a bunch of games for free.
I remember those days. Except back then you had the added challenge of finding space for it on your 1.2GB hard drive
I’ve worked for a couple startups and you’re absolutely right. If you make a profit you pay taxes on that money, so startups like to spend most of the money they bring in. They also want to show revenue growth, since that’s what investors like to see. You grow revenue by getting more paying customers. And you do that by doing what your customers want.
When you go public, your goal is to increase shareholder value. So you do this by reducing costs and finding ways to wring customers out of revenue. You find ways to nickle and dime customers out of revenue so much you develop an entire branch of law devoted to you suing your customers
Knowing specific features of a language is one thing, but not being able to even pseudocode a FizzBuzz shows they lack the basic logical problem solving ability that programmers need.
So what? It figured out The Answer, big whoop.
Get back to me when it figures out The Question.
There is, but since color printers are the ones that were used in counterfeiting most black and white printers don’t do that sort of thing. Plus I don’t know how you’d encode that much information in black and white without making it visible on the paper.
Only color laser printers put those yellow dots on paper. The black and white ones don’t because they can’t: They don’t have yellow toner.
So get a black and white printer and you’ll be fine.
80% of my work is on websites, and the other 20% is in a text editor or terminal. As long as I could map my old keyboard shortcuts I don’t see why not.

That’s not entirely true. I’ve been a Mac user since 1989 and I also recommend Brother laser printers

Databases need tuning for your workload, and most people just think it’s a big box where you can dump anything you want and it will work. And then when it chokes on a terrible query they blame the DBA.
This makes DBAs very cranky.
I get that, and I thought the same until I started writing documentation myself and found people misinterpreting what I thought were very clear instructions. Every piece of writing has subtext and secondary meaning, even technical docs.
Even understanding that the person writing the docs didn’t speak English as a first language helps me find clues to fill in the gaps that exist in all documentation. And that’s a skill I first picked up in literature class.
But that’s just me.
This is why nerds who don’t like literature class are missing out. If you can figure out the meaning of some inscrutable poem most documentation should be a breeze.
