The two are not mutually exclusive.

Sexual attractiveness also doesn’t mean sexual drive. One doesn’t need to be gay to understand that a man is sexually attractive in the way they find compelling. A desire to look good is all it takes.

Senior backend engineering definitely doesn’t see 99% windows adoption rate.

Well, they do it Japanese style - by forcing developers to leave due to burnout.

I’m working with a legacy codebase for the last few months, where a simple PR often ends up crossing a 1000 lines count due to testing and commenting, and I can’t stop apologizing for those.

Yet there are people out there bragging about 10x changesets.

Why the fuck is the very first sentence not a link to the goddamn proposal being discussed? Are they trying to look sketchy to anyone with a habit of informational hygiene?

Did you lose track of the written words after the first question mark perchance?

Not voting is a vote for the winner by default. I highly doubt that every single person that didn’t vote did so due to being unable to.
