I used to do work at a high security site. One day the fire department was there for inspection. Out of curiosity I asked the chief what happens if he needs access and he is declined it for whatever reason. He pointed at the truck and said “This truck along with it’s contents are the key to the city. Nobody can stop me”. That day I learned that nobody can stop the fire department.

For future reference if you ever hear that a candidate is going to do what is best for God or God’s will and you take it seriously, you belive in Queens and Kings.

I am going to finance some movies and video games. I might even make it back.

It is really simple if you eliminate social welfare and make UBI part of taxes, you free up a lot of money. Everyone gets $35 000 a year or does not pay any tax on their first $35k. This creates a system that is already less expensive to operate than the current mess and injects a lot of money into an economy. The ruling class hate this idea because if people are not jammed into a corner living paycheck to paycheck or worse, they tend to quit their jobs where their employer was abusing them and get a better education. Or say fuck you to your employer and live poor until you get a new job.

My team or I have not had very much luck with it. We were spending a lot of time picking out bad generated code.

It is not machine learning and LLM that pisses off Lemmy users. Its the application of said technologies. I don’t give a flying fuck what people are doing with ChatGPT, its novel. I want a generative AI that can help me code.

The processors are so much more powerful now. You wouldn’t last a day without being extremely frustrated.

I have found this to be 100% true. That is why they don’t have a grasp on that they are people with feelings.

Games take 3 to 5 years to develop and switching engines during development is a very poor decision. In two years you will see how many companies have moved on.

TLDR: All turbines on a electrical grid have to turn at the same speed. Hydro, Fossil fuels, Nuclear all use turbines. There is no way to dump energy into nothing to prevent the turbines from spinning too fast. So pure supply and demand capitalism is why we pay people to take our energy to allow our electrical devices to work.

I do frequently exclaim “Why the fuck is this system not machine agnostic” about my own software often enough to know that each person gets their own pot.

Especially HP printers and honorable mention to Konica Minoltas.

A lot of you have a lot of faith in people reviewing PRs. I know a few Sr. developers, that if shit was too busy, would skim it and say 'fuck it, it will be QAs problem. If you put this in the correct sub-system in file that would only be executed once a month, for example a maintenance class, It would be really hard to notice something is wrong if it didn’t cause issues seen immediately. Maybe this is the story of an intern that added something that also fucked up boolean comparisons in a subsystem used once a month. Where there is a 2 week lag between the execution and operations noticing something wrong.

Wow, from my experience men get laid for being feminists. If you still truly belive that the patriarchy and the status quo are fine, women can tell and see right through you. If you believe the patriarchy is good for you as a man, you are wrong. What women really want is a person who understands and can have healthy relationships with not only their female partners but all relationships they have with other people. The patriarchy discourages these healthy relationships.

I wouldn’t have believed you a few years ago but that pretty much happened.

That’s cute that you thought a government cares enough about the tax payers to represent the tax payers.

I learned this the hard way, I forgot to commit for a single day and got burned really bad when my regression tests failed and I could not trace the issue(it is called source control for a reason). I declared it was more efficient to revert back to the last commit than spend time fixing broken code that I had no fucking clue where it was and the only thing I had to go by was that it happened between two commits with a whole work day between.

It’s funny because once the diamond is on the ring and sold it becomes worthless, the metal in the ring may be worth more than the stones after it leaves the store. I had thousands of dollars worth of diamond jewelry and could barely get a few hundred for it.

You’re a savage, go back to the forest.

People don’t get that with money they can do whatever they want. Want to do something illegal, just do it because you have unlimited funds to pay your legal team to clean up the mess afterwards. We are absolutely powerless against something that can litigate you to death. Defederating is the only power we have. There is no way to react to anything that happens. There are no consequences for their actions. They don’t even answer to any governments.
