Ten years and counting here, fuck if anyone knows at this point. My personal (maybe a bit cynical) take is that it really doesn't matter as the amount of coding skill you use maxes out in the first few years of your career (for 90% of us anyhow), after that cat herding skills and pragmatic system architecture is what's important. It becomes more important to know what not to do rather than the opposite.

So it doesn't really matter how fast you are at leetcode if you can navigate the particular brand of spaghetti your workplace is cooking, plus points if you are able and willing to grok new kinds so you can hop jobs because raises are so last century.

Yeah, unlike an outsourcing outfit an AI company won't take the fall when given shit requirement and shit pay they deliver shit work.

Why do superapps make sense to use? Is it because they can't make their own OS due to US monopolies?

The "rewording ban" shows pretty clearly that it's not about the content, but that they don't want their precious dataset poisoned with LLM slop so they can better sell it to the slop generators.

“people are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once” as a result of insufficient water pressure

How do US toilets work? It should be independent of water pressure, there is a tank of water that gets prefilled, right?

So this is how they get around needing Congress to establish a new department.

"The union made non-negotiable demands far in excess of what can be accepted if we are to remain competitive as a business,"

My dude, you literally have no competition! Your management bankrupted them by doing the same shit there that you are doing here! You know, before you all managed to fail upwards.

If you manage to be insolvent while running one of the largest monopolies on the planet, you should get checked out by a doctor, because it takes more than either base grade stupid or base grade malicious to be able to do that.

Also, isn't the whole reason Boeing is in hot water since they can't build shit right the fact they tried to fuck over the unionized workforce by building another factory in the Deep South, but the shit that comes out of there is falling apart? Seems to me, they need the union, not the other way around.

I just want to point out the irony that the UK is being fussy about a piece of their history being moved out of their country.

He's really hurting in his ego about his lack of crowds, isn't he?

At this point, using Firefox and an ad blocker does more for the climate than paper straws or recycling.

Even with ad blocking, half of consumer internet traffic is ads. Google is contributing to increasing this ratio, where most traffic on the internet will be stuff the client did not request, contributing more to climate change than Bitcoin - not that this makes crypto look better, they are just a useful milestone to compare to with the press they get.

And this doesn't include the idiotic AI shit they do.

Questions remain over the benefits of similar actions, aside from shock value and forcing parts of Russian troops to bolster their defences by moving troops from elsewhere.

Aside from that, sure. I wonder why Euronews would be against Ukraine retaliating against Russia, other then the fact that it has been bought by an Orban linked company las year.

Could they get out of kids pants and get to fixing the country?
