Lived in a place just rural enough to not have any businesses other than a tiny supermarket, and just urban enough to not really have many orchards, much less farms. Typical shitty planning that required everyone to have a vehicle to get anywhere important. So before I got a car it was pretty much shovelling snow in the winter and mowing lawns in the summer.
My reaction, exactly.
Would love to be a fly on the boardroom wall of any one of those companies which did massive layoffs “because AI”. Probably lowkey panicking on how to get their devs back.
Would sincerely love to know the name of the company. You know, to avoid them. Yup. I’m sure that’s the reason.
And gay hate is even explicitly laid out in the quran. It’s not a “fringe” thing in the least.

Because capitalists are assholes who steal from both ends of the Working Class: they cram down wages while soaking the consumers for all that they are willing to spend.
And it is this method by which the Parasite Class engineers trickle-up economics to achieve such obscene wealth.
- Actually text me the one-time passcode, rather than saying you sent it to me while instead texting it to the molten core of the earth.
Uhhh… how about NO??
In fact, as a casual security professional (it’s not a core part of my job, but I know a lot more than most ppl), I openly advocate making SMS and eMail illegal for transmitting one-time passcodes.
Why? Because both are critically insecure, cannot be adequately secured outside of laboratory or highly restrictive environments, and can be trivially hijacked.
The only one-time passcode that should be used are one-time password generators (TOTP) such as Google Authenticator or any other such method.
Yes, this requires a little more effort on the part of the site owner, but it’s worlds better than SMS or eMail, and far more user-friendly than forcing the user to open the company’s app just to receive the code (looking at you, Canadian banks and other businesses like Telus).
I haven’t experienced any of this personally. I quite literally run all of my own iron off of my own Internet connection. But I have helped a number of clients on AWS, and this experience tracks surprisingly close to some of my clients.
Seems to be fine on iOS, but I also move content out of reader mode at the slightest provocation.
$1,500 USD. JFC.
Masks off (literally) on selfishness, greed, fascism, and anti-intellectualism.
If only there had been a higher delta in survivability between the vaxxed and unvaxxed, the pro-plague nutters could have removed themselves more thoroughly and effectively from existence.
Unfortunately far too many of them still walk among us.
So first they get devs hooked on AI.
Then they watch and wait as dev skills degrade. Like, the actual skills to get the work done without AI.
Then, once devs are unable to be productive without AI anymore, they turn down the screws, pulling profit from those who cannot do without anymore.
It’s a tactic of capitalism that is as old as time. But I think it’s been done too quickly this time, as there are still plenty of devs which have sat on the sidelines, waiting for things to shake out, and who haven’t had their skills erode away from AI usage because they just haven’t been relying on it or even using it.
…the fuck?
Damn, AI is making us doubt everything these days.

There is no paradox once you realize that it is not a law, but a social contract.
Those that are intolerant remove themselves from the social contract, and are no longer protected by it. This then allows them to be no longer tolerated by the tolerant, preserving that contract for those who obey it.
Work on projects regardless of whether they can be monetized or not. Stand up your own forgejo so you can also demonstrate DevOps and sysadmin skills. Try to be as flexible as possible - remember the entire saying of “a jack of all skills is a master of none, but is still better than a master of one”.
There are specialities that can extend his time in the industry, allowing him to build up more of a nest egg before he makes any kind of a jump.
For example, DBAs (database administrators and specialists) will not go away any time soon. Same goes for observability (tracking user behaviour and system errors). Both of those require a sense of “correctness” and intuition that AI hasn’t gotten anywhere near to mastering.
Good luck.
Coffee house dates are realistic. Many places are open well into the evening, especially chains. And while privacy isn’t high, neither is the cost.
And the point of a first date is not to spend money, but to gauge compatibility and interest.
Any guy that spends big bucks on the first date is setting himself up for failure by putting up a high bar that the woman is loathe to go beneath in the future. He will be caught in the “dancing monkey” trap, forced to implement ever more expensive displays just to stay above that bar.
By keeping the bar low in the beginning, a man filters for quality and substance and against being treated like an ATM. Those women who are just foodies or who have unrealistic expectations self-select themselves out of contention, leaving only the serious, well-adjusted, pragmatic, and realistic women still at the table.
Enrolment in CS degrees is already crashing as people hear about how horrific the job market is from new graduates. My bet is that this will persist for at least 5-8 years, if not longer, as negative impressions remains resident in the population for a lot longer than actual conditions.
By the time companies realize that they have starved the employee channel of new talent, they will be handing out $150k+ jobs to anyone who can fog up a mirror, and anyone having demonstrable senior-level skills will make an average of triple that.
Holy shit that clip was epic.
