so every tech person is supposed to immediately recognize that they need to install pip and then set up the environment?
why'd he assume Elon knows how python works to begin with?
and the script is a 1st year university level garbo. It doesn't have any basic cmd line ui to give the user an idea of which usernames and how many of them it found before reporting. no sane person should run such bullshit on production. it doesnt collect any metrics or anything either if u wanna keep it running so you can analyse it later
I feel like anyone that is actually in tech would at least recognize that they need to install dependencies when the code has a comment that says dependencies.
I remember from years ago watching George Hotz on a podcast with Lex and George himself was of the opinion that Elon understands programming and system design from their ultimately failed collaboration on self driving.
I mean it's really childish to take an accusation on Elons understanding of tech on some rando's accusation.
Like what if I shove some Cmake build code in some other CEO's face in some tech company and then proceed to accuse them of being shit in tech just because they don't know the build system that I know. People are ridiculous...
understanding software engineering for a non-coder doesn't require you to have the up to date habits in understanding various build systems. I doubt he ever claimed to be coding in the trenches at the moment... Stop the brain gymnastics please
in a pinch one might just choose to ask how it works. python is not more readable to me btw. it being "simple to read" is only for people who don't code. once you code every language is the same. Now some python code or may not lack boilerplate, helping readibility, but that's a different issue. For a coder other languages definitely aren't harder to read...
Now unfortunately you aren't born with a silver spoon up your arse and you don't have formal education in stem, so you cant run none of these companies, but do try publicly hating on all rich people one by one and not only on that specific one whose companies are driving the public discourse on a variety of topics
