Obsessed with this van in my town owned by someone who is in a feud with a local car dealer (Pohanka) for not honoring the warranty on their van so they spite covered that same van front to back in stickers with bad reviews, emails from the owner, and “Puck Fohanka.” 10/10 Hater behavior.

You miss every shot you don’t take

The thing is at the end of the day you need to debug a production issue and that does require understanding how everything works. At this point in my career it’s been a very long time since I’ve written all the code Im responsible for so this isn’t that big a change

At work we review ai generated PRs pretty thoroughly. There are different approaches people take there. I’m aware of projects where basically nobody reviews the code and instead focuses entirely on regression and acceptance testing but I’m not convinced that’s a good idea in the long run

To elaborate a bit for people who aren’t familiar, the Apache and BSD licenses are written in such a way that you can use them in your work without ever asking a lawyer in basically every circumstance outside of like nuclear reactors

Gonna go back to the 15th century and tell people that eventually the Black Death will be super treatable and not really a huge deal

Permissive open source licenses exist in part so that you, as a programmer, can bring your tools from job to job along with any improvements you may have made along the way

The PPSSPP story is deliciously ironic when they frame it as "stolen code" They wanted someone to not use code generation so as to respect the copyrights of software engineers. Except for the ones they were disrespecting by playing emulated games for copies of games they almost certainly don't have

Ppl keep telling me about how in Europe they would simply ban bigoted political movements and right now Germany's highest-polling party is openly Anschlusspoasting without any fear of consequence.

Ok man but this isn’t people being burned alive for no real reason in a mass panic it’s people being yelled at and occasionally temporarily losing their jobs for being well documented assholes

Human plague still occurs in the western US, with most cases in northern New Mexico and Arizona.

The thing is that this guy kinda deserves the consequences of his actions but I don’t and being resentful forever doesn’t feel healthy

I’m at the playground and one of the cool things that’s happened since I was in elementary school is playground designers have figured out how to make these things not death traps while still being fun and feeling a bit sketchy

The bosses who are like “now we can just fire everyone” suffer from a crippling lack of imagination imo

The thing about staffing that gets a lot less attention is you can also be wildly more ambitious with the same team. The thing we do at work would be like 1/3 as sophisticated id we were doing it a few years ago

And the reality is that AI really doesn't replace engineers. It acts as an accelerant for people who already know what they're doing. You maybe don't need as big a team, but the efficiency gains are real but not "omg the industry is over."

AfD Youth is posting about unification of German people. Belive them, when they say who they are. Not far right, not nazi like but actually exactly like nazis. P.S And yes, they are Putins favorite party in Germany

I know this isn’t useful but it’s weird how “the president should be coherent” was a Very Important Thing just a few years ago and then suddenly wasn’t.

Do people think there’s some kind of software qualia in which a function can be verifiably correct but somehow not real?

Republicans have controlled Utah since 1985. If they were going to improve lives of constituents they’d have done it by now. Vote blue for positive change.
