     @lizzie 50% of them couldn't implement binary search according to IBM.
     
     Although with their new hiring policies they are trying to drive that to 100% :neocat_woozy:

     @lizzie there was a YouTube video I commented where the guy said awk made him a "10x engineer" and in it he said writing a program that reads this file:
     55.7 F
     32.5 C
     And converts all the farenheit to celeius would "take forever" and it's like my blob in crepes if that is true you are not a 10x engineer you are a 0.1x engineer :neofox_woozy:
     
     Depressingly a lot of corporate programmers are functional derps who are just good at interviewing and copy pasting code. And to make it worse companies are now just hiring to fill race quotas on top of that. IBM already got exposed telling their managers to be racist deliberately.

     @lizzie the problem is getting worse because people with no place in tech are increasingly just copypasting from chat gpt which has in turn copied it off a Q&Q board and added God knows what hallucinations to the process
