Hehe, I, too, broke my windows 95 installing Slackware.

Slackware.

That was 25+ years ago. So don’t judge me.

I don’t know how AI is going to change the employment. But it is going to shake things up a lot.

A 2024 study from MIT showed that AI was able to perform around 6% of all of the jobs in the world better than humans.

Another study by OpenAI found that their O3 model could perform 8% of all freelancing jobs without human supervision.

AI coming. It’s coming for some jobs. I think translation is one of those jobs.

That being said, it was exceptionally stupid of the CEO to say that and sink all of his public image. At the end of the day, if AI can do what their contractors can do, nobody would need duo lingo.

I agree with everything you said about jetbrains. Their vs code like push and AI push has degraded their quality.

The fact that you think Microsoft owes you anything is even cuter.

It won’t… Again, I can distinguish between company time and private time.

Employment is an exchange of time from employee for resources from employer.

Microsoft is not saying you can’t support Palestine. You can.

That being said, Palestinian employees interrupted public and private Microsoft events. That caused monetary damage to Microsoft. Microsoft is saying that is no longer welcome during the company time using company resources. That is 100% within their right.

I had similar issue. Every time I was writing a systemd file, I would have forgotten what I previously learned.

These days I just make deepseek/changpt do it. 90% of the time they get it right. Even if they get it wrong, you end up with a file that will be perfect with a line or two changes.

I won’t. I can distinguish between my private time vs the company time.

With all due respect, no company in the world has to pick sides. They can choose a side or do nothing. If you don’t like what they are doing, you can boycott them.

I don’t see anything wrong with Microsoft silencing Palestinian protesters after what they did in some public and some private events at the company.

This was a good read. Thanks for posting.
