>Surely a tropical storm interfering was as good a reason as any to delay.
Presumably he was using the incoming tropical storm as cover to excuse the power outage.
>Why didn't he just reschedule the theft?
In the book the visit from the 'technical advisors' was the perfect cover for the theft of the embryos, Nedry couldn't just show up, he was a consultant, 1 week later and be like "hey guys! I'm just gonna wander around the park unsupervised for the next 10 hours, hope you all dont mind." Also the villains of the story, the other biotech company, were already so far behind on development of these so called consumer genetic products, in this case dinosaurs, that they viewed this moment as make or break, they determined that if they didnt act now they would always be playing catch up to Ingen
Funny part is, Nedry made this determination while he was in the park trying to get to the loading dock to meet the waiting ship, he was like, "frick this, I'm just going to do this tomorrow," got out of his car to look around and got eaten by a dinosaur
>You can't just 1 programmer you have to hire 50 mystery meat people and do your AGILE training and estimate your points you can't just program! Where's the version control? You're not even using GitHub!?!
Programmers these days I swear.
In the book he only shut down the security doors and cameras, not the fences and gates. The storm is what wound up causing the power outage that fricked the fences. They actually managed to undo Nedry's code and regain some control of the park before the storm hits and absolutely fricks everything beyond repair.
No, like other anon pointed out, it was just doors and cameras covering the frozen embryos, also, there was a pervasive sense on staff that even if a power outage caused the electrified fences to go down for a short time the animals had been conditioned to not go near them from getting shocked and they wouldnt even notice
He seemed like he was responsible for electronics hardware.
So he knew a little how to program and "fix things" in the system it it really came to it, but not really.
Programming is really fun if you like to solve complex problems. Though I switched from programming to concept art as I like designing characters and environment more than coding. I also do level editing of I run out of concept work to do. My studio used unity for our last project but we just switched to unreal last year. In high-school I would make my own counterstrike maps and let me tell you something that unreal is so much better than source. It's crazy how better it is. I really can't wait for source2sdk to come out though. Unity sucks.
unless we are taking assembly level coding/functional programming, then you need to be severely autistic
>you just need to have a passion for it
things that gay morons say
adderall can get you 1/5th of the way to passion (while the effect lasts)
t. takes adderall, and was passionate about something unrelated to data decades ago so knows what they both feel like
Honestly I want to KMS for every second of the 8 hours a day I have to suffer coding. The money is good but at some point you begin to question if it's even worth doing this shit for 40 hours a week for 40+ years (it isn't). Every programmer I've worked with that's actually good and enjoys it is some degree of autistic and they're almost all unkempt and socially awkward too. Never get into programming unless you have autism.
this is why i am a mason, yea it kinda hurts but i work on the beach, get 4.months a year off, and get to meet extremely rich people who let me park at their houses to go surfing in the off season
>yea it kinda hurts
Learn to lift shit properly. Look up proper deadlift technique and learn to do deadlifts, that'll teach your brain how you're supposed to lift things without destroying your back
Any job with computers is mentally exhausting. I've been working as a translator for only a year and I already feel suicidal. I want to become a plumber or an electrician or maybe a kayak instructor. How does one become a kayak instructor bros?
I'm only speaking for myself, but in my job it's more like finding out what the customer actually wants, coming up with a good architecture/user interface, and then actually programming it. There's bigger companies/lower roles where I'm sure all you do is program small parts of something someone already planned out and only talk to your supervisor, but I get to plan it out and adjust it as needed with the people actually using it. It makes me happy to see my code in action and see how much the users appreciate the tool I made. Definitely not always the case and a lot of users can be really fricking stupid, but the ones that appreciate your work make up for it.
~$90k in the Midwest. Could make more in a different company/location but I like where I'm at.
If you want a job like that my advice would be find a job at a company that's not a software company. Pretty much any company above a certain size needs at least one programmer
Same here. Started out as a frontend-leaning software developer and quickly realized that my actual interest is product/UX design. Had only one assignment throughout my career that I actually enjoyed. It was a startup-like project where I ended up hosting requirement-gathering workshops with customers, commencing user interviews & testing, designing the general architecture and happy/sad flows etc. Trying to find a combined frontend/UX position now but it's a bit painful.
No you aren't. You're a product developer, that's why you can only conceive of doing it in exchange for money.
Some people do it cause they see a problem and know they can make a solution to it which they might as well share with others.
You're just working a job for financial compensation.
I do embedded/fpgas/vlsi for a robotics company and idk how you do higher level stuff it melts my brain
When it comes to low level programming I'd say you spend an extremely small amount of time programming, like maybe 30% of your day, the other 70% is blunt force trauma debugging and planning. It's big chilling just reading data sheets and doing mechanical/electrical stuff to get a better understanding of the system as a whole
It's not about the coding itself, it's about problem solving.
About making the program/hardware/system do something and finding a way to do it (optimally).
There's also an added sense of satisfaction if you find a new and better way to solve a problem.
What is NOT fun is when you have to untangle someone else's code where they did things in confusing ways or just bloated it into spaghetti code that breaks your mind.
>What is NOT fun is when you have to untangle someone else's code where they did things in confusing ways or just bloated it into spaghetti code that breaks your mind.
One of the fun things to do with R/E is decypher all the frick-ups that the person making the system did, and make fun of them.
Most programmers stop programming after 5 years or even less and climb up to a better position as analytics or project leaders.
It's just mediocre and or autist programmers the ones who stay like that forever
I've worked for 4 years as a programmer. I quitted about 3 months ago due to burnout.
It's no joke, it really fricking depresses you. I guess staring at a screen for 8 hours a day working in some bullshit job while not interacting with anyone and barely seeing the sun does things to you, who would have guessed.

In the future I hope many images from X can be used to fuel discussion and imagination on Cinemaphile.org!
That's because he's Gen X/Boomer, back then a single programmer could easily do this, not like those coddled millennial and zoomer babies who can't program anything without crying and needing a safe space.
>That's because he's Gen X/Boomer, back then a single programmer could easily do this, not like those coddled millennial and zoomer babies who can't program anything without crying and needing a safe space.
yeah, the big wig ceo bullshit guy lied. 'spared no expense' means they payed the least amount of money possible to some poor sap who got saddled with 5x the workload he could handle.
the entire park was built and run like this, and they make that way more clear in the book. there are blatant design flaws and cut corners in every system and facet of the island, all the way down to the fricking landscaping outside the visitors center, where they planted deadly toxic ferns everywhere in easy reach of all the guest's children, cause they didnt do any research about anything and just threw pennies at some unqualified dumbasses and told them to plant shit there.
Right, they completed neutered a central message of the book. They turned Hammond from a skinflint who curses his own grandchildren before his death into a kindly old man who just wanted to entertain 🙁
They actually mention the ferns in the lunch scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Nz8YrCC9X8 "Well, the question is, how can you know anything about an extinct ecosystem? And therefore, how could you ever assume that you can control it? I mean, you have plants in this building that are poisonous, you picked them because they look good, but these are aggressive living things that have no idea what century they're in, and they'll defend themselves, violently if necessary. "
The scene where they are first in the jeep before they have seen any dinos Sattler is looking at a plant saying that is extinct. How did they get the plant DNA to recreate it? It's not like a mosquito sucked a plants blood.

Yes? Boomers don't know anything about tech and they get screwed because of it. Go look up that investment firm that went under because they trusted one guy with the password for their crypto wallet and he mysteriously passed away while traveling to a 3rd world country and the wallet got drained after he died.

One of the fun things to do with R/E is decypher all the frick-ups that the person making the system did, and make fun of them.
In the book there's only a skeleton crew even when things are operating normally. Nedry was hired to make computers run the whole park to save on labor expenses.
Heh, jokes on you I'm just going to read the Wikipedia articles because I only actually read gay horseshit pomo that fricks with writing as a structure
I never document anything publicly unless I'm working as a contractor and even then I do a half assed job so they have to call me when they frick shit up.
This was really common in olden days though. Only having 1 or 2 programmers do a load of work. If you look at any old games from the 90s they always had tiny teams of like 10 - 20 people making the whole game.
Happens all the time if you go the "Business Intelligence"/IT route instead of trying to make it as a dev. My first project at a moderately large plumbing firm was documenting a massive program that was written by a guy like that. Dude was storing credit card and password data as strings without encryption but no one knew because he was the only one who actually understood how anything worked.
It was just family drama, did you ever see the movie? In the book Nedry is a genius programmer but with a criminal record and can’t find work so Hammond begrudgingly allowed Nedry to bid on the job because he’s his son he had with a woman out of wedlock who isn’t entitled to any of Hammond’s fortunes, even though he resents Nedry for ruining his own life. If Hammond didn’t have a son he would have just paid another programmer a regular salary. It’s fleshed out more in the book but the movie only makes a few references to it.
>I don’t blame people for their mistakes but I do ask they pay for them. >…Thanks, dad.
>Why didn’t I build in Orlando? (he wouldn’t have been able to hire Nedry in the US because of his record so he built internationally so his son could have the job)
>I’m not devoid of merit. (even though his resentment skimped his son he still pulled the strings necessary in order to get him the job, but now laments not just paying Nedry a normal rate)
Moral of their whole character dynamic is don’t let petty differences and arguments ruin a loving/lifelong relationship, like Hammond did because he resented Nedry for being incarcerated and Nedry for not appreciating what a limb his dad went out on for him in the first place which resulted in the destruction of the park.
>(he wouldn’t have been able to hire Nedry in the US because of his record so he built internationally so his son could have the job)
Shut the frick up you colossal mind-blowingly stupid moron
It's weird to me that there in fact IRL security systems that have that level of centralization (like if you take out one server or just disable a small service the building doors for the entire company just won't work.)
I guess it's about cost? They could make it harder but they aren't a prime target or something.
Or they're counting on obscurity more than pure safety.
Wasn't he the leader of a little team of programmers in the book? He is the only one to go on the island of them for secrecy reasons, he is on the helicopter with others at the beginning
Hammond fricked him over by refusing to disclose the actual breadth of the project until after he agreed to work on the project (this was intentional since he didn't want anyone to know what was going on.) As a result Nedry low balled and thus ended up stuck working for relatively shit pay.
He also threatened him to ruin his reputation with the others corporations if he didn't finish the job. In the book nerdy hatred for Hammond is justified
how can any team track 2 millie lines of code? bullshit
2 million isn't even that much when it comes to FAANG
There used to be way more websites on the internet than those. Most were better.
good abstraction etiquette
>CTRL+F
why didn't he just copy paste the lines until he reached 2million?
the lines have to be different
Then just copy a line that's 3 characters longer than a line. Bing bang boom. Every line is different now.
how would you copy an extra 3 characters each line wtf
123
123123
123123123
123123123123
123123123123123
you could write a code for that
Next you're gonna tell me Hammond's flea circus didn't use actual trained fleas.
It didn't?
No, they were genetically altered fleas with frog DNA.
that was the elephant
idgi wtf is a flea circus then?
Why didn't he just reschedule the theft? Surely a tropical storm interfering was as good a reason as any to delay.
>Surely a tropical storm interfering was as good a reason as any to delay.
Presumably he was using the incoming tropical storm as cover to excuse the power outage.
>Why didn't he just reschedule the theft?

the entire point is the hammond is a liar, a conman, and a cheapskate.

In the book he only shut down the security doors and cameras, not the fences and gates. The storm is what wound up causing the power outage that fricked the fences. They actually managed to undo Nedry's code and regain some control of the park before the storm hits and absolutely fricks everything beyond repair.
No, like other anon pointed out, it was just doors and cameras covering the frozen embryos, also, there was a pervasive sense on staff that even if a power outage caused the electrified fences to go down for a short time the animals had been conditioned to not go near them from getting shocked and they wouldnt even notice

Wasnt Samuel Jackson's character a programmer too? He was the one complaining about going through the code. I don't know what his job was.

He was an engineer
God help us all we're in the hands of engineers.
I think he was installing hardware as his main, Nedry handled all the software bullshit
>Wasnt Samuel Jackson's character a programmer too?
he was the butt holder
He seemed like he was responsible for electronics hardware.
So he knew a little how to program and "fix things" in the system it it really came to it, but not really.

Linus built Linux on top of GNU. He is a gifted programmer but Linux is probably the least notable of his achievements.

How do you even work as a programmer without wanting to have a nice day? Just staring at code for hours a day?
you just need to have a passion for it

Until you have to do this fun task:
>What is NOT fun is when you have to untangle someone else's code where they did things in confusing ways or just bloated it into spaghetti code that breaks your mind.
See
i forget to comment code when im in THE ZONE
if you can't understand code at a glance then you can't program
Sorry but it's true
>Dennis, our lives our in your hands, and you've got Butterfingers?

In the book there was only a skeleton crew because of the huge storm. Everyone else evacuated on the boat.
That's the entire reason Newman chose that time to steal the DNA.
why would they evact over a storm?
In the book there's only a skeleton crew even when things are operating normally. Nedry was hired to make computers run the whole park to save on labor expenses.
Does that autist not understand that Nedry is a parody of an early techbro?
That's the joke.
This guy has poor media literacy.
In the book, it explains numerous times that Hammond is a stingy israelite who cuts literally every corner.
>random plot detail in a 30 year old movie invites more discussion than entire movie franchises happening today
Which Crichton books are worth reading? I always hear movies butchered his stuff even if the movie is good and he sounds like he was a brilliant guy.
Jurassic Park
Sphere
Andromeda Strain
if you read those three and like them, read the rest too I guess
Heh, jokes on you I'm just going to read the Wikipedia articles because I only actually read gay horseshit pomo that fricks with writing as a structure
>im an engineer.
ok so you work on site and you wear a hardhat?
>no, a software """"""""""""""""engineer""""""""""""
just call them computer programmers
I never document anything publicly unless I'm working as a contractor and even then I do a half assed job so they have to call me when they frick shit up.
This was really common in olden days though. Only having 1 or 2 programmers do a load of work. If you look at any old games from the 90s they always had tiny teams of like 10 - 20 people making the whole game.
The original Age of Empires is only 10,000 lines of code
Happens all the time if you go the "Business Intelligence"/IT route instead of trying to make it as a dev. My first project at a moderately large plumbing firm was documenting a massive program that was written by a guy like that. Dude was storing credit card and password data as strings without encryption but no one knew because he was the only one who actually understood how anything worked.

Looks like Pascal or Delphi or something
It was just family drama, did you ever see the movie? In the book Nedry is a genius programmer but with a criminal record and can’t find work so Hammond begrudgingly allowed Nedry to bid on the job because he’s his son he had with a woman out of wedlock who isn’t entitled to any of Hammond’s fortunes, even though he resents Nedry for ruining his own life. If Hammond didn’t have a son he would have just paid another programmer a regular salary. It’s fleshed out more in the book but the movie only makes a few references to it.
>I don’t blame people for their mistakes but I do ask they pay for them.
>…Thanks, dad.
>Why didn’t I build in Orlando? (he wouldn’t have been able to hire Nedry in the US because of his record so he built internationally so his son could have the job)
>I’m not devoid of merit. (even though his resentment skimped his son he still pulled the strings necessary in order to get him the job, but now laments not just paying Nedry a normal rate)
Moral of their whole character dynamic is don’t let petty differences and arguments ruin a loving/lifelong relationship, like Hammond did because he resented Nedry for being incarcerated and Nedry for not appreciating what a limb his dad went out on for him in the first place which resulted in the destruction of the park.
Was he in prison for being a pedo? Fat autist programmer in the 90s. Seems like pedo material.
In the book it was fraud like The Office to establish his skill as a programmer.
>(he wouldn’t have been able to hire Nedry in the US because of his record so he built internationally so his son could have the job)
Shut the frick up you colossal mind-blowingly stupid moron
Hammonds a much nastier cynical character in the book
looks like it's mostly English, but his punctuation use is very unorthodox
documentation is for nerds, real hard programmers reserve comments for slurs and ASCII art only
It's weird to me that there in fact IRL security systems that have that level of centralization (like if you take out one server or just disable a small service the building doors for the entire company just won't work.)
I guess it's about cost? They could make it harder but they aren't a prime target or something.
Or they're counting on obscurity more than pure safety.
Wasn't he the leader of a little team of programmers in the book? He is the only one to go on the island of them for secrecy reasons, he is on the helicopter with others at the beginning
Hammond fricked him over by refusing to disclose the actual breadth of the project until after he agreed to work on the project (this was intentional since he didn't want anyone to know what was going on.) As a result Nedry low balled and thus ended up stuck working for relatively shit pay.
He also threatened him to ruin his reputation with the others corporations if he didn't finish the job. In the book nerdy hatred for Hammond is justified
There was some plebbit post on how he spared a ton of expenses.
they never discussed the bonus situation.
Yes
Congrats Twitter, you stumbled upon the entire f'n point
>muh documentation
exactly. just like migrants. why do they need documents? documentation is just white supremacy

Nice
You mean they were cutting corners and bound to have an accident?
