Why does he have a slash in between C# and C++? Those languages are unrelated except in the philosophical sense.

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What do you mean? I also put Java / Javascript as they are clearly related.

[–] blackstampede@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Normally, when I see something like "C/C++" it means that there's a significant overlap between the two languages, so knowledge of one implies or coincides with knowledge of the other. But C# and C++ are very different languages, and while you could argue that there's some sense in which they're related, it isn't much of one. If you're going to list "C#/C++" then you could just as well put "Java/C#", or "C++/Rust".

You could reasonably use C/Rust and C/Haskell to say that you have mastered the fields of unsafe and GHC.Prim.

C#, though? C#/Java would make sense given that they're the same language with slightly different Syntax.

I think that’s the joke

[–] ppetrelli@lemmy.wtf 41 points 1 year ago

Hadoop is in the list twice. Which makes it both a Pokémon and a technology!

[–] ram@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I see 7.ditto, sawk, vulpix, feebas, onyx, ekans, metapod

Also he lists hadoop twice

Edit: I see I also made the onyx/onix mistake that someone made in this thread.

Is shiny a Pokemon? Shinx is one.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a variation of Pokemon. Shiny Pokemon are different colors than the regular ones.

[–] Eccentricity19@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, but it's still not a Pokemon by itself.

I’m a bit peeved by the circumstance that python (a language), jupyter (a compiler for python), and numpy and pandas (both python modules) are listed separately.

[–] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

they all sound like pokemon

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I see 3.

Two are also coding things 😐

One is also the name of a ransomware attack, so I'm assuming that's the one you're talking about lol

[–] ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I count 7 at least.

I always get this backwards ^^;;

Krebase doesn't exist at all, too.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

fickle me, I don't know programming languages or Pokémon!

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

autocorrect has fickle'd me in the ass

autocorrect has fickle'd me in the ass

This caught me off guard and made me laugh. I needed that right now, so uh. Thanks for getting fickle'd?

[–] xryx@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Me too. I think fickle’d just made it into my vocabulary 😂

[–] HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This is one for the meme history books, glad to come across this classic again!

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Pyspark, Numpy, and Krebase really ought to be.

[–] ExLisper@linux.community 5 points 1 year ago

Why would a recruiter know about all the technologies? He knows what technology is required for a given position and doesn't care about all the other stuff in your profile.

At this point, if any of your recruiters mistake them for Pokemon the moral thing for them to do is to resign and just put you have their job
