@unclebobmartin@JV_ReiAyanami I'd like to note how some people work for decades and have the same knowledge as a mid developer and some people work for 3 years and have the knowledge of seniors. It all depends how you challenge yourself and what you are exposed to
@polydao They had thousands of customers before they switched into this architecture, this arch was a consequence of their success not the other way around
Fine lets be honest and actually compare translations
Here is Fitzgerald, the most common one that is taught in schools:
Now shrugging off his rags the wiliest fighter of the islands
leapt and stood on the broad door sill, his own bow in his hand
He poured out at his feet a rain of arrows from the quiver
and spoke to the crowd: “So much for that. Your clean-cut game is over,
Now watch me hit a target that no man has hit before,
if I can make this shot. Help me, Apollo.”
And here is the same excerpt from Wilson:
Odysseus ripped off his rags. Now naked,
he leapt upon the threshold with his bow
and quiverfull of arrows, which he tipped
out in a rush before his feet, and spoke.
“Playtime is over. I will shoot again,
towards another mark no man has hit.
Apollo, may I manage it!”
Which one did you like more?
@Thtomb@AzzurraS4 I just said the lines match. Take any line # from her translation and match it to the Greek poem you'll find the same text with a selection of different words that you would be complaining about. From memory, one of the complaints was that Wilson decided to call maids as slaves
@Thtomb@AzzurraS4 Just note how her translation maintains the original line count of 12,110 from the original poem matching them line for line...but it's a new story of course
@AzzurraS4 Did you actually read this or the illiad translation?
Your statement is ridiculous. Instead of thanking Emily for YEARS of hard work translating and getting the Homer works up to standard, you make up stories about a "woke version"
@HomerPavlos I am completely lost at all these characters that are listed that only appear for 2 scenes in the book. How are they important for the odyssey?
@javarevisited The lesson here is that 1 day consulting gig is much cheaper than actually hiring him. My advice is to hire him hourly since it only took him 45 minutes anyway
@unclebobmartin@esrtweet The scary part is that languages have special magical problems that are only revealed to you when you become a senior in the language
@ChShersh I was honestly upset when all the people I knew who didn't have a passion for anything went into CS or SWE just because it looked easy. I was passionate about this since I was 13, and they just wanted a cushy job
@kristijan_kralj The fact that they have bad architects has nothing to do with .net. Most of my codebases are mediator pattern with cqrs, simple segregated, replaceable
