Yes, actually it was and is. Of course, there's a difference between a mere coder and a developer. But I don't know any of the former who last very long on the job.

I like how their explanation of big O is completely wrong.

What is the correct explanation, IYHO? Sincere question.

Big O notation characterizes functions according to their growth rates. It can be used to classify algorithms according to how they scale with changes in input size, but that (famously) does not predict the actual performance of a real implementation on realistic (or even worst case) input.

Thanks. Ah, so sort of the difference between theoretical (design) and reality (implementation).

Only about 6 percent of the country’s biggest cities are planning for or thinking about autonomous vehicles or self-driving cars in their long-range transportation plans, according to the National League of Cities. Should we self drive that idea into the garbage can?
|
|
|
|
|
Cities shouldn't need to do anything any more than they should plan for really wide or tall or short cars.
Auto makers are required to make cars that work with the existing infrastructure.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, because cars were totally made for the dirt roads we drove our horses on...
And likewise we didn't have to replace all our wiring for fiberglass...
I'm thinking we'll need to replace our roads with roads that create energy so our cars can keep driving forever without fuel too.
Asphalt is just so last century!

A text-string that literally says "null" in ASCII or Unicode gets translated to a null-pointer in which language? 
Bastard Programmer from Hell 
If you can't read my code, try converting it here[^]
|
|

|

Java[^] for example. But which other languages does the same?
|
|
|
|
|
I'm baffled.
What special kind of idiot converts a specific array of byte to a null-pointer? 
Bastard Programmer from Hell

|

They don't do any actual conversions, it's an abstraction.
The "null pointer" has been swapped for a type of its own. This works just fine as long as you're having a strongly typed language. Which JavaScript spit isn't.
I did some research yesterday evening and it seems like C# does the same.
