  • because he doesn’t understand that SSNs aren’t globally unique when you account for time.

    Barry Allen born in 1905 has SSN 123-44-5678. Barry died in 1983.

    Clark Kent was born in 1996 with SSN 123-44-5678.

    Musks assumption of a deduplicated DB table ignores the fact that SSNs were never designed to be GUIDs. he lacks the fundamentals of basic data modeling and critical thinking needed to understand a simple construct that a child could grasp.

    This is why he doesn’t understand SQL. He also doesn’t understand COBOL, which SSNs were built on top of.

    This isn’t because Elon Musk is an idiot.

    #Elon Musk is a criminal.




  • building websites on GeoCities. I had one that had “haxing tools” and how to use them. the different phreaking boxes and how to make them. etc.

    around the same time I was war driving phone numbers and telnetting into whatever I connected to.

    I found an unprotected early porn site with questionable content. I deleted their entire server.

    I stopped doing it when I accidentally connected to a state police server.

    skip forward a few years and I was on Napster, Limewire, a couple others I can’t remember now.

    skip forward a few more years and I was hosting my own online forums and websites.

    few more years I was hosting VPN’d LAN’s for Xbox tournaments between friends when we couldn’t get together(this was long before xlink kai). the lag was terrible sometimes, but made for some epic kills.

    now I’m a full stack software developer and get paid to build and break shit.



  • short attention spans with zero integrity when it comes to mistreating or abusing their viewers. the majority of successful vtubers are toxic and corrosive socialites that simply want to be at the front of attention, striving to be the “top influencer”.

    this kind of cancer only bled into development because they are both positions that rely on advanced technology.

    now you have devs that treat their jobs like influencers do and “swoop in to save the day” only to fuck you when they moved on to greener pastures.

    I’ve personally seen it happen at least 3 times in five years.

    anyone who claims themselves as a “rockstar”, “forward thinker”, “innovator” or “disruptor” is a horrible developer and needs to go away. we don’t want you.

    if they can’t explain to me why their shitty changes increased memory consumption by 25% they’re not a dev, they’re a script kiddie.

    that said, greenhorns need apply. you’re ok but don’t get cocky. watch and learn. asking questions is good, don’t share your opinions unless you know enough that you can defend them. and don’t get bent out of shape when someone tells you your idea isn’t going to work.
