iirc tef made a great post about how fatwood is a terrible programmer and he knows it but he's arrogant enough to think everyone should learn from him while he amateurishly tries to reinvent things like html sanitization instead of, you know, learning from people that actually know what they are doing

i commented on his blog once when he was loving up some really basic poo poo (how to implement encryption - and i mean how to use existing libraries correctly here) and then i never read any of his blog posts ever again because if you know less than me about coding (and i know basically poo poo all) you have no business telling people how to write code

actually i did read it one more time - when he plagiarized some of shanley's stuff because if there's one contributor the world of tech feminism needs it's a stupid fat white dude who makes lame rape jokes "ironically" on his twitter

he's a worthless piece of poo poo who's only legit contribution to the world was sorta fixing expertsexchange and it makes me sad that more people have probably read his blog than code complete where he stole his stupid blog title and avatar from

A good sign that someone is a giant rear end in a top hat is that they keep trying to reinvent the wheel. they do that because they think they know better than everyone else.

This deadlock perplexed me, on a couple levels.

How can a read be blocked by a write? What possible contention could there be from merely reading the data? It's as if one of the dining philosophers happened to glance over at another philosoper's plate, and the other philosopher, seeing this, screamed "meal viewing deadlock!" and quickly covered his plate with his hands. Yes, it's ridiculous. I don't want to eat your food -- I just want to look at it.

snackoverflow seems to work pretty well. I mean it's starting to get the Wikipedia disease of over-editing, but overall if you use google it will provide decent answers most of the time.

stackoverflow is useful but the only way i've ever used it is through google. idk if the actual native interface is good and i don't give a poo poo because the only time i go on that website is when google has served it up to me as one of the top relevant hits for a particular error or problem i'm having

I have never asked a question on stack overflow. I often type my questions into google and end up there for the answer.

sometimes I'll answer questions on there when they are in an extremely narrow area of specialty that I happen to know about.
