Daily Caller readers aren’t ever going to read the retraction anyway. Truth doesn’t matter to the right in the slightest. Journalists who pretend otherwise are basically larping.

Get blocked fashie bot

I was about to say the same thing. I’m not reading all that shit. This is bot generated right wing propaganda.

Well now I blocked them too so your post did some good in the world

Well, Seymour, I made it. Despite your directions.

It’s turtles all the way down

Echoing what others have said that it so far appears to be hallucinated/AI-coined from everything I’ve seen so far, as well as that I’ve seen a variant spelled “Arafed.”

These are all ludicrous.

Could accidentally knock people into a higher tax bracket and ruin their finances long term for short term gain.

This makes zero sense. Read up on how tax brackets actually work. Hitting higher tax brackets doesn’t mean your existing income is taxed at the higher rate. No “ruining.”

Could accidentally give someone collateral to take out a massive loan they cannot afford long term.

Wtf is this paternalistic BS. They could buy drugs or guns too!! 😱

Doing nothing and simply using it as cash reserves is better than making a foolish mistake and ruining it for themselves.

Nah. Pay people.

Lol I would if I could 😭 shit is dire.

A man of your talents would be wasted here anyway; IBM is not a technology company. It’s a financial engineering instrument with an old computer museum attached for historical reasons.

Man I still need to beat that fucking game

Anyway, fast fourier transform joke

Part of the reason I like text based better is because it gives me the power of search, literally everywhere. Too many complicated GUIs give me headaches and make me intensely frustrated as I click around seemingly at random, digging into menus or hunting around buttons with labels or icons that I don’t recognize.

On the command line, I can just start searching and jump straight to the thing I’m looking for instead of forgetting what I was doing wandering around in GUI land.

This is a really good and entertaining post and thanks for making it

As a guy who burned out super, super, super, super hard to the point that thinking about code–even though I’m good at it–just makes me feel baaaad, I still can’t help but chuckle. Like, in my case, providing what I did to the code world was literally all I could do before I stopped being able to contribute because it hurts inside my brain lol.

But at the same thing the fucking most hilarious part of it is you’re right 🤣 People do just not see software as “real” if it involves any reading and typing outside a comment box. Buttons and visualizations are truly everything if one wants to code and be taken seriously by anyone but other hackers. 😭😂 I wonder how much low hanging fruit there is out there of software that people could just make a paid GUI for and make a killing

What makes you think they’re clueless? They just don’t care.

not to touch anything IBM touches because it would be ‘unclean’ then, IBM being source of everything that is dirty in the world

Just popping in as an ibm employee to say: yes, accurate

I like to use awk instead of grep wherever possible, especially for weird logic like this.

awk '!/B/ || /A.*B/' is one way to skin that cat. If you don’t care what order A and B are in on the lines containing both, then awk '!/B/ || (/A/ && /B/)' will work.

I would like to know more 🤤
