Guarantee this is a ploy to chase off the 'less committed' employees (read: less desperate), while not having to announce mass layoffs.

This is exactly it, they're going to feed all this data into a model to try and get an AI to be able to perform operations in the OS like a human would.

Which on the surface of it sounds reasonable, but only if they actually paid people to generate that data for them. And this isn't even touching the privacy aspects of a record of everything you do being generated and stored in plaintext.

You underestimate my power, I see a Settings menu, and instantly enter a fugue state, 30 minutes pass and I suddenly come back to myself, my desktop environment looks entirely different, the windows are wobbly, and GTK window theming is broken.

I need help

Yeah that's exactly the thing, people freak out so much about China having access to their data, but act much less concerned when it comes to their own government potentially having access to said data. One of these options has the ability to affect your life if they don't like your data, and it isn't China.

(Not to get me wrong, I think no government should have access to one's data, moreso pointing out the double standard)

Oh interesting, I never knew about that side of Kagi. The fact the company is focused so hard on AI is a red flag. I don't think I'll renew my subscription when it comes up later this year, given how erratic their plans seem.

Yoooo, been waiting for this to drop for ages. Outer Wilds is such an incredible game.

Majority of people believe the Moon landing was real. Conspiracy Georg, who smokes 100 packs a day was an outlier and should not have been counted.

Yeah it's weird that they generated this, it distracted me from the meme itself

I'm hoping for an E-Wing from it's quick appearance in Ahsoka

I believe Calibre has the ability to send books via the Kindle email address to get them on your device that way.

I've always heard the ideal is about a 20% raise from your previous position, especially if you have plenty of experience with the new position.

Though this does depend on many other factors, I'd definitely try to get an idea of the standard salary for this position through any means, even a site like Glassdoor or something. Knowledge is power, especially when negotiating a salary!
