!INDEED, I very much agree with that! Even though I'm not (yet) a coder, I love to look at how different people choose to organize their code. Oh, yipes! I'm guess that seeing 'random' in any kind of environment like that would be quite perplexing! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
The random() method itself was not that wrong, but that the it returned a fixed value of always 7 was completely wrong :-D Especially since it was quite an important function, and it’s not that hard to code :-)
Ah, OK, I see. I guess that you get to see lots of amateur coding bits like that, doing things in an backassward manner. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Unfortunately yes! And the worst thing of all is that this was an amateur working for a VERY big Tech company, with a f*ing huge salary :-)

Wow, that sort of thing blows my brain! There's an astounding number of people that think that they know how to do something, when in point of fact, they're almost completely clueless! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
!INDEED
!INDEED ! There’s a term for it as well I believe! The fact that if you think you really know something, it shows that you actually know way too little to understand the real complexity.
Maybe "the first step brings the person halfway" saying is a great response for @tydynrain's previous comment. 🧘♂️😅
!HUG
True! And absolutely !INDEED :-) But then you shouldn't sell yourself as THE expert, and charge 3x the regular fee for your first step :-D That was unfortunately what this very big tech company did in that case...

I didn't read your conversation with @tydynrain that is already more than 40 layers deep before I published my previous comment. 🤯😅
!PIZZA
!INDEED there is, likely even a few! You said it, yep, wonder and humility are a good combo for actual learning, which is precisely what the arrogant buffoons do not grok. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Exactly !INDEED !!! :-)
Humility and wonder...
Look at the world like a little child...
Learn that the more you learn the less you know...

Yes, like a child, open, and with no expectations or preconceived ideas to get in the way! I think that we can learn in a way that adds to, not diminishes, our understanding and knowing. There is a superficial kind of knowing, based on facts and specific data, that does indeed take us quite far from our deeper knowing! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
