[@allenwilhelm7799]

@@cykes5124 ugh. Am i a brainlet or is it because I'm in my pre-coffee stage of the morning? Wouldn't inflated demand mean that there is a high demand for those jobs therefore many available?

[@BillClinton228]

@Anon I disagree... I've done plenty of interviews in the industry and I can tell you that a "capable developer" means different things to different people. Some companies will call you for a interview and even if you pass all their tests they wont hire you because you don't have experience with some obscure framework that they are using. Some companies will call you for a interview and even if you pass all they technical tests they wont hire you because someone in the interview process didn't like you as a person. So does someone not liking your personality mean that you are bad developer? The most ridiculous interview I ever did was for a C# developer position for a financial institution and they didnt hire me because I didnt have any sales skills... yes you read that correctly, I asked them what I could improve on after the interview and they said they need someone with sales experiece. I was very confused and looked through the job spec about 3 times and sales was nowhere to be found... so by THEIR definition I'm not a "capable" developer because I'm not good at selling!!!🤣🤣🤣 Some developers I've worked with didn't know how ajax works in web development... do you consider them as capable just because they "somehow" managed to get a job?

[@javidx9]

Well as a Bob Ross viewer in my younger days, that's a very pleasant complement!

[@GregoryTheGr8ster]

That might have been me! I am totally brilliant, and part of my brilliance manifests itself in my ability to see connections like Javid being the equivalent of Bob Ross. However, I did notice that a few other of Javid's fans have made the same connection, so I cannot claim to be the originator of this. In any case, Bob Ross is such an affable chap, isn't he? His videos make us forget the troubles that we routinely hear in the news and in the world.

The vague description of your location as "somewhere in the lake district". The bland, nondescript, industrial estate - the perfect foil for an evil lair. It all makes sense now; you're about to release a herd of evil, rampaging, northern robots on the world. You're an aspirational Bond villain - a "Dr Evil", you didn't spend six years at the university of evil to be called "Mr Evil". Whoa, that x9 at the end of your name?! Forget the T-1000's, you're part of Google's, "X9" series that they built in Area 51 as part of project "Don't be evil" that went horribly wrong. Rise of the Northern Machines - The Northernator Series. A robotic Liam Gallagher issuing an ominous threat after he's smashed up the local pub, "I'll be back, our kid". Oh the humanity, please tell me you're not fulfilling your marital duties by emitting a low amp wang pulse. Is this you in the bedroom?: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWmsl5Sbm8tjo6M You've got what it takes to be a Chaturbate webcam star. Man's a sex symbol - the complete package.

Hello LoneCoder, been watching most of your your videos on about everything. I don't program C++ mainly but always enjoy watching your videos for entertainment and (expanding) knowledge purposes. I'm eagerly waiting for the next one! By the way, I never knew you worked in (industrial?) robotics, if you don't mind I'd love to hear about it in some more detail (without being to descriptive in terms of privacy reasons obviously). I mainly got into programming as a kid due to my dad being an electric and mechanic technician who also happen to work with industrial PLC's etc. in the past. When he brought one home one day with our old 486 133mhz computer I was immediately sold and knew what I wanted to do! That's right! Making the computer do a beep boop doobadoop beep!
