Scuba diving.
It might make it worse, not being able to eat the pizza without tasting the water you’re in and having to deal with removing and replacing your mouthpiece.
… or latrine/septic cleaner on the job. I’m not enjoying pizza in a shittank.
but their money is, and it’s already sequestered away. Their mere existence is a problem that lasts longer than their lifespan.
Why do you think they’re all desperately pretending that LLMs are gen AI? They want to secure their revenue without having to care what the plebs do.
and we both know governments both today and throughout history protect the rich and money over people…
You’re both right. You are in that their influence will wane, but they’re right in that it won’t be fast or pretty.
He didn’t have a clear vision. He had contradictory promises all over the place.
You must be a troll if you’re dumb enough to think all that tripe.
It’s getting their works digested by Amazon’s LLMs.
Agile SHOULD have a lot of the things ‘traditional’ management looks for! Though so many, including many college teachers I’ve heard, think of it way too strictly.
It’s just the time scale shrinks as necessary for specific deliverable goals instead of the whole product… instead of having a design for the whole thing from top to bottom, you start with a good overview and implement general arch to service what load you’ll need. Then you break down the tasks, and solve the problems more and more and yadda yadda…
IMO, the people that think Agile Development means only implement the bare minimum … are part of the complete fucking idiot portion of the industry.
Fuck man, why don’t more ethical-ish devs join to make stuff? What’s the missing link on top of easy sharing like FOSS kinda’ already has?
Obviously programming is a bit niche, but fuck… how can ethical programmers come together to survive under capitalism? Sure, profit sharing and coops aren’t bad, but something of a cultural nexus is missing in this space it feels…
The result in the end should be an organized series of events, a process, that takes or produces data. The data can be anything from a single number in a calculator, to a text message, to your entire social profile. The process can be anything from basic math, to advanced math (i.e. machine learning, rendering, cryptography, etc), to performing simple operations on that data like shuffling that data somewhere else.
These processes are stacked on top of each other and utilized with basic logic (if, else, loops, scope, etc) and combined together with a myriad of programming patterns and algorithms, to produce higher and higher orders of complexity, that eventually solve a real-world problem.
The result is an ever increasing complexity of useful tools and processes that can either solve specific problems directly or at least provide discovery for other useful tools and processes that might.
It’s translating higher order problems from something understandable at the task level all the way down until a piece of specialized rock that only understands on and off can eventually spit out a meaningful result.
ok ok electrical engineers get the claim for the last sentence, and plenty of the real-world complexity, but hopefully it illustrates my point that ‘nothing’ is … just wrong. We cannot discount the absolute importance of abstract things. Everything from “imaginary” numbers to completely abstract things like philosophy have real- world consequences. If programming produces nothing, then MOST jobs that aren’t manual labor produce nothing.
You’re right, they shouldn’t be stressing either resource. Though my point was that referencing how much RAM is in the system is a bit silly when referring to a CPU being pinned at 100%. There is a HUGE swathe of CPUs with an even bigger range of performance that are all sold in 32GB systems.
I’m positive the low end of that scale could be rightfully pinned at 100% for certain common tasks.
Exactly. I don’t know why I’m being downvoted for describing the thing we all agree happens…
I don’t blame the students for not being seasoned professionals. I clearly blame the executives that constantly replace seasoned engineers with fresh hires they don’t have to pay as much.
Then everyone surprise pikachu faces when crap is the result… Functionally idiots is absolutely correct for the reality we’re all staring at. I am directly part of this industry, so this is more meant as honest retrospective than baseless namecalling. What happens these days is idiotry.
Microsoft might prove that one wrong if they keep enshittifying Windows.
Well, it’s also stupid to use RAM size as an indicator of a machines CPU load capability…
Definitely sending off some tech illiterate vibes.
Edison was DEFINITELY not unique or new in how he was a shithead looking for money more than inventing useful things… Like, at all.
Yes, if you factor in the source of disposable culture: capitalism.
“Move fast and break things” is the software equivalent of focusing solely on quarterly profits.
Definitely part of it. The other part is soooo many companies hire shit idiots out of college. Sure, they have a degree, but they’ve barely understood the concept of deep logic for four years in many cases, and virtually zero experience with ANY major framework or library.
Then, dumb management puts them on tasks they’re not qualified for, add on that Agile development means “don’t solve any problem you don’t have to” for some fools, and… the result is the entire industry becomes full of functionally idiots.
It’s the same problem with late-stage capitalism… Executives focus on money over longevity and the economy becomes way more tumultuous. The industry focuses way too hard on “move fast and break things” than making quality, and … here we are, discussing how the industry has become shit.
It would definitely be a bit more annoying to program, and a bit more naggy to the user for permissions during setup I’m sure, and running in the background would take some finagling and extra work and iOS could still kill it in the background on you … but otherwise it’d be the same.
Apple fans are not that type of person, though. They’re better than everyone else, and so is their owning entity! They can do no wrong, this app was obviously guilty of doxxing cops …
I know it’s not about Christmas, but kindly fuck off with Christmas in October even as a reference… God Christmas sucks ass. Invading every other holiday because it’s the most commercialized and profitable for dumbass capitalists…
Never the one who pushed, always ambivalent, but now the problem is potential number 6 is hesitant? Yea, that doesn’t add up.
Sounds like the obvious answer is do not marry, yet you want us to justify it for you?
That’s massive red flag #2: You cannot take accountability for your own actions and desires. If this is how you describe your decisions for a life-long bonding ritual, I hate to imagine how you handle less important decisions.
The universe does not render to nothing that which came from something.
The very laws of physics dictate that ‘you’ do not disappear. Time is a human projection of our understanding and perspective. Our times of death are merely a location on a much grander tapestry that we are absolutely a part of. While we may not be infinite, we are real.
