As usual, the people who like war are the people who've never gone to war.

They cower behind their the comfort of their home, AC, keyboards, western paycheck and standards of living while trying to be (seen) as "rational" and "stoic".

They talk like there is good sides and bad sides in war, right sides and wrong sides.

Most of them are these small powerless men who dream of power fantasy.

I wonder, will today's children who is seeing this spectacles of war in 4K, all gore and guts and destruction, will grow up to be better leaders for all?

Or are they going to grow up just like their parents, small powerless trigger-happy men filled with mid-life crisis.

Oh man, I gotta write a comment here. I'm gonna leave out a few details in case this guy or my tech lead/manager read HN.

So, I am senior software engineer, got hired into this company. I was tasked by my manager/tech lead to work with another senior software engineer.

Overtime I realized that this engineer did not have the proper background in this field. I asked him and I asked my tech lead, and confirmed he did not have background in this field. This guy just roped into this project and stayed.

I sent him articles, tutorials, and even documentations that say so and so is so and so, but he refused to believe it and said it was just my opinion. I even offered to work on these problems instead of him. But we ended up getting into heated arguments. I talked to my tech lead and my VP and they just brushed me off. It got so bad that I asked to be transferred to a different team.

I also realized later that my tech lead was not as technically competent as I hoped to be, so that's why he couldn't make a decision.

Anyway, I asked Reddit and TeamBlind how to best deal with this kind of situation. (In those forums I actually described exactly what were the problems)

To my surprise, a lot of them, 99% of the answers go along these lines "Who the fuck cares man, just get your paycheck and go home, what an idiot". These are highly paid FAANG engineers.

So, that was my wake up call. They were right. Who the fuck cares. Just get my paycheck and go home, and work on other stuffs, work on side projects, side hustle, and go Leetcode.

I was 8 years too late into the industry to know that this should be my default attitude when working.

Now I am in "Who The Fuck Cares" club.

Amazing! Thank you.

Hello, I've heard of Datastar before but didn't really pay attention to it since all the air in the room was sucked up by HTMX.

I tried HTMX and I found that it is really, really hard to manage complexity once the codebase gets big.

Is there an example of Datastar being used with Go in a highly interactive application that goes beyond just a TODO app so I could see how the project structure should be organized?
