Welcome to the club. Also got dumped after years of service, just before the holidays. Software devs, we do all the work, but have the least job security.

My five year mission: To seek cognition from the mouth-breathing Troglodytes that make up the bulk of the bell curve.

You should stick to this platform over Reddit solely because you don’t get silenced here for your opinion when it conflicts with fragile, self-important moderators. Blue team / Red team is the natural tendency of all contentious issues, not the fault of the platform.

My Mac is such a slow piece of shit on Mac OS that it’s nearly unusable without installing Linux.

Downvoters scoff at iPhone users.

A lot of software development in a corporate environment is using a Mac as the host. Not to say it’s the target build env. So id say some Mac users know Linux far better than you think. In my experience.

This is ALSO my fear behind small dogs. That’s why I don’t carry cash around them.

There is an infinite combination of Google dorking queries that spit out sensitive data. So really, pot, kettle, black.

The other side is always gang-raping and performing other dehumanizing acts that valiantly allow you to act in good conscience. This occurs on all sides. You are the humane and just one, the other side are barbaric animals, to be eradicated.

They’ll probably incinerate our planet when the time is ‘right’. Just in case. 😏

I love these social experiments. 👽 <– ain’t ever gonna visit this fucked up planet

Hostages are victims. Prisoners are criminals. Calling a Palestinian a hostage makes you an anti-semite. Calling an Israeli a prisoner makes you an anti-semite. Being an anti-semite impacts profits. Hence the chips fall where they must.

The real elephant in the room with AI is that when it works, the network has been over-fitted to the output. And when something completely novel is fed into it, it spits out nonsense that runs over your dog because it looked like a shadow on the asphalt. Poor fido.

Good to know which instance to avoid!

I asked chatGPT to generate a list of 5 random words, and then tell me the fourth word from the bottom. It kept telling me the third. I corrected it, and it gave me the right word. I asked it again, and it made the same error. It does amazing things while failing comically at simple tasks. There is a lot of procedural code added to plug the leaks. Doesn’t mean it’s overrated, but when something is hyped hard enough as being able to replace human expertise, any crack in the system becomes ammunition for dismissal. I see it more as a revolutionary technology going through evolutionary growing pains. I think it’s actually underrated in its future potential and worrisome in the fact that its processing is essentially a black box that can’t be understood at the same level as traditional coding. You can’t debug it or trace the exact procedure that needs patching.

Baby hamas are the worst kind of hamas. They are easiest to train, and sit there not moving, shielding other hamas.

A spectrum analysis and bandpass filter should take care of that.
