90% of programming I have seen after a decade plus of doing it full time is minor changes being made to code that was already made by someone. Likely not documented. Likely already changed in a dozen little ways. Math isn’t the problem. Understanding what the guy who wrote it is often the problem.
Oh and you can’t ask them because they likely don’t work here anymore.
Being a programmer is more like being a detective than anything else unless you work for a small company.
I am saddened to see that this thread had no mention of how many horses it takes to run a router. What do y’all think? Would one be enough? It would need to work in shifts to keep up time at 100%. Maybe 3 to be safe?
I finally made the switch recently. Windows kept getting worse, and worse, and worse. Every day I felt like I had to fight it more to just do anything. I’ve been mainly a Windows user my entire life and I just couldn’t stand to use it any more.
I couldn’t be happier. Every game I play on steam just works. I’m installing mods and updating config files deep in the magical proton depths and it just works. A clean install of the operating system is actually a clean place to start. I’m telling everyone I know.
I love how you think it’s over then some mfer gets out of the car like “wut”? Like, what the hell? I’m here saving your ass, what were you doing?
An amazing story, and just downright perplexing. It is a shame you never found out what on earth was going on in the CTOs head. I would love to understand the thought process (or lack thereof) that went into that.
This looks similar to a problem I was having. Turned out that my extruder wasn’t calibrated properly and it was pushing far less material then expected. Try running an extrusion test like described in https://ellis3dp.com/Print-Tuning-Guide/articles/extruder_calibration.html
I think about it like the tires on a car. They are (hopefully) the only part of the car that touches the road. If they aren’t working correctly everything else isn’t going to save you from a gentle curve in the road.
This is exactly what I came here to say. They are militantly against duplicates. Doesn’t that mean on a long enough timeline the number of new questions have to eventually reach zero?
I use stack overflow every day and have for years. I have never once had to ask a question.
