It’d be funny if “because of AI” meant their AI gimmick wasn’t panning out and they were just cutting the teams that worked on it.

I find videos helpful for getting an overview or hyping me up to do the cool thing but once I need to do the cool thing articles are way better

Rotten cabbage rocks, especially the Korean varieties

I worked as a developer in electronic payments for 5 years and we had to go through a months long process to certify the code with the financial system. My bosses were paranoid of any changes I made (to a silly degree) and we had a silly amount of automated tests.

We were a small startup with an underpaid staff and I’m not sure if more than 1000 people used our software. What they’re doing is completely reckless.

Is it one of those internet “facts” like the eating spiders in your sleep one?

Many technologies lived and died based on what the gooners chose, e.g. VHS vs betamax. I welcome them

It’s funny that many the older states have new

The Romans wore skirts and thought pants were weird barbarian garments. They were right about one thing at least

Office job but working my way up to a dumpster life

Oh wow, I never thought of it that way!

How did you get into contract work? I’d love to be able to work when I need/want the money but have the option to step away for a while. I’ve been burned by too many “family” like workplaces

THANK YOU FOR THE SUMMARY, BROTHER. I’M GONNA TRY IT OUT AFTER I CRANK MY HOG. AROOOOOO!

It also doesn’t help that spellings started to standardize at the same time the great vowel shift was happening

The dragon from Dragonheart. It was my first time being sad from a movie.

Have Patrick Kane and Hayden Christensen ever been seen in the same room?

If the future is anything like CDDA then I will be thriving. I’ll be scavenging solar panels while rocking a Linux t shirt and a wizard hat

It was the formal “you” that could refer to one or more people. Kind of like “Sie” in German.

Alright Uralic language family, you can stop bragging now.

The compiler grows on you after a bit and generally if you’re fighting it, it’s trying to prevent you from shooting yourself in the foot. I’ve heard it depends on what languages you’re coming from. Most of my experience is with higher level languages like JavaScript so the issues I ran into while learning rust were opportunities to get a deeper understanding of computers in general.

I could see that being frustrating if you’re coming from C/C++ and just want the dang thing to do what you already know how to do.

This way the IDF can say “See? we don’t bomb hospitals”
