And his wife still thinks he was stupid for that

Murrell joked that he preferred the employees receiving the bonus over his wife getting “a new fur coat”.

“She still looks at me like I’m stupid, but I thought it was worth it,” Murrell was quoted as saying by Fortune. “They worked so hard. They were so overwhelmed.”

Thanking service members has always been fucking weird from a non-American point of view

It sorta makes sense on overly censored social media platforms but what, that’s an article on their own personally managed website? That’s bizarre

If this comment is implying an /s then you got me lol

Haha I think you might be the person who needs the /s. I was just continuing the sarcasm but making an adjacent sarcastic point

Ah, good point actually. It’s been a long time but I remember now that keeping it good actually required freezing it in tinfoil

It’s actually possible to do this so I’m genuinely curious how many people would end up tripping. How many people would be willing to lick a random street flyer and how much LSD would you have to soak it with to let more than one person trip?

Car infrastructure doesn’t need to make a profit don’t you know? Its just public transport that needs be a net gain for the city

Maybe but you give them an inch and in a few years the ads will be targeted

I’m not sure if it’s what you were implying but without anymore detail, I don’t really see a problem with that.

It’s kind of the same as having a beer out in the yard while your kid plays? Maybe you’re not directly playing with them but you’re hanging out with them as they play. I’d have been perfectly happy with having that as a kid

Its a nullable field, chill. It’s exactly the same as a Linux distro installer asking for your first name for account setup and the moral outrage is genuinely embarrassing

Edit: not to mention that good system design reduces redundant data. If programs want your birthdate, they’ll either repeatedly ask you or go to a central source. If you don’t want to give out that information, you enter a null value or you put something random. The only difference is now you don’t have to repeatedly do that

The NDP gaining on him in support might finally be having him rethink his tactics. I can’t see it lasting though considering it’s gotta be painful for him holding back his snarkyness

The list is genuinely stupid and lacks any nuance. See my other comments in this thread but this is sort of thing is where people who are anti-AI are shooting themselves in the foot and making the general public write off any genuine criticism as ridiculous.

Most of those projects allow AI to be used in the dev process and that’s it. That list includes projects that just document that things like AI line completion and similar can be used but code is still reviewed by at least one skilled human maintainer

The list combines those projects in with projects that are entirely written (vibe coded in the actual original sense) which just muddies the water on what’s actually problematic and not

Exactly, yeah. I actually really like AI for line completion and the occasional use of it for debugging. It really just enhances existing IDE features.

The problems with it come with large unreviewed chunks of code generated by LLMs being thrown carelessly into a codebase. A developer asking for an AI code review or a developer letting AI complete a line they were likely writing anyway to save time is so far removed from the problem that it just screams mindless anti-hype or overly-confident inexperience by juniors

What kinds of housing are Texas and Florida building?

Reviews (as an addition to human reviews) is actually one thing that AI does pretty well. It’s not good for large architectural issues but it can point out nuanced issues in single files that often wouldn’t be caught otherwise

I keep saying this but painting any use of AI at all as the same as vibe coding just harms the real complaints against it, ESPECIALLY in this case where it’s subtracting from another real issue (the age gating)

AI has been better than this for quite some time now. I honestly miss this era of AI-generated images though. It was always immediately noticeably AI but created some absolutely vile Cronenberg-esque abominations that I’d consider a genuine art genre on its own. Now we just get realistic but slightly uncanny slop

Nothing teaches you about ohms, voltages, and amps better than a vaping hobby (unless you’re one of those that use a disposable)

I feel like this is sort of the collective problem humanity has. As soon as we do that reset, people will just say “🤷‍♂️ things are good now so why do we need to focus on changing anything? oh look this politician’s offering me a tax break”

Edit: that being said I would kill for a soft reset anyway

Do military recruiters actually just cold call (well, text) you like that in the US?
