Wtf?! When managers say "ask the coders," do you say, "Don't put all coders on a pedestal. Don't forget that there are s****y, opinionated people in every profession"?
Or is, "I just generally object to such blanket statements" meant to be incredibly ironic?

Calm down. I'm just saying it's not always so black-and-white.
Some people think that doctors--ALL doctors--somehow possess superhuman knowledge, skills, talent, etc and should never be questioned. When it comes to something as important as health, there's a reason you're often advised to get a second opinion.
I've never heard of anyone holding coders to such standards, so to answer your question, no I don't, because it never comes up.

Oh, I'm calm. Did you say something?

What? Are you seriously suggesting that the cherry-picking, agenda-advancing, axe-grinding, attention seeking internet isn't the best source for life-changing decisions?
Man, have I ever been doing this all wrong...

I read that 95% of everything on the internet is biased and/or twisted from the truth for some political agenda. The other 5% is outright lies.
...of course, I read that on the internet!

Wheeler's specialization of Sturgeon's Law[^] to the Internet states:
"99.97% of everything on the Internet is crap."
It is worthwhile noting that the percentage is asymptotically approaching 100% as time goes on.

Isn't that about the same percentage they give to the survival rate of having covid?

Huh. Fortunately correlation is not causality. I read that in a book somewhere. Or saw it on Star Trek. One of the two.

If you had covid without knowing it it will just be like getting three shots instead of two.

Now your statement was just another shot.

By the way, information you can gather from a bunch of geeks on the internet can sometimes be more valuable than a yes or no reply you can get from a medical doctor who last read a medical journal 30 years ago.

I'm having a slight problem with that statement.
First, how do you know if a doc doesn't know? I really wouldn't know that they don't know.
Secondly, If you allow me to use an analogy, there are plenty of quite brilliant older programmers that perhaps doesn't have a clue about Linq for example, but they're still quite able to solve the problem in front of them.
Hmm, that's perhaps not the best analogy, but I hope you get my drift.

Actually not, I wanted to say that I don't necessarily want to change doctor because he/she has outdated knowledge, there is so much more to it than that.
And the same goes for programmers.

Then you definitely want to post it to devenv.exe - it was him who made that assertion, not me.

I admit this should have been for me and i admit i would have agreed with @Jörgen Andersson

I have been volunteering in the vaccination centre in my home town, and this is one of the top 3 questions.
Having had COVID counts as a vaccine shot. People who were exposed to the virus get only one shot instead of two in France.
In any case, do not be afraid of anything, a doctor or a nurse will ask you the correct questions before giving you the shot to avoid any risky situation.

I had the virus (a mild case) and 6 months later the shots. No real adverse reaction aside from some fatigue.
