    I’m sorry, do you trust junior engineers blindly?

    as a starting position, fucking YES. you know why I hired that person? because I believe they can do the job and grow in it. you know what happens if they make a mistake? I give them all the goddamn backup they need to handle it and grow.

    “this is why code review is so important” jfc. you’re one of those “I’ve worked here for 4 years and I’m a senior” types, aren’t you

      So you don’t do code review? Something that’s pretty much industry standard?

      What on earth do you work on where it’s inconsequential to trust someone new to the industry blindly?

      If I could trust someone anything remotely close to “blindly”, they absolutely would not have been hired as a junior.

          Acting superior presses the dopamine button. Especially since the other poster keeps being mature and kind in their responses, really gets that feedback loop going.

        yep yep. no code review. no version control either. that’s weak shit only babies use. over here you deploy patches by live editing app memory in production, and you update the codebase by editing the central repo using vscode remote. everyone has access to it because monorepos are what google do and so do we.

        you have a 100% correct comprehension takeaway of what I said, well done!

        jfc no wonder you’re fine with LLMs

          Interesting you bring up reading comprehension because this whole thread started with me saying I would not trust a junior engineer to be perfect or trust them blindly.

          You proceed to die on the hill that you would do that for some reason, despite now implying that you do, in fact, do code reviews—which we do because people can’t be trusted to be perfect

                someone who thinks “the buck stops here => nothing is true; all is permitted” probably won’t get much out of “here are all the places ive found shit where neurons should be” so idk

      @froztbyte @9point6 There’s a distinct difference between “I have twenty years of experience” and “I’ve had the same ten minutes of experience over and over again, over a twenty year period” 🤷
