Kind of, it’s kind of like using a calculator instead of doing arithmetic by hand when doing load and strain calculations. It’s a tool which cuts down on the tedious (and error prone) parts of engineering but doesn’t replace the expertise. I use it frequently to write code snippets for things I don’t know the exact sytax for but could easily look up. It just saves time.

Like, we have a guy whose entire job is to understand the ins and outs of a particular bit of modeling software. In the future that will likely be a person who runs the AI which understands the ins and outs of the modeling software. And eventually the AI will replace that software entirely.

The most important part of being a prompt engineer is knowing when the responses are bullshit. Which is how the AI field has been the whole time - it selects for niche expertise.

This but unironically

I can use my published PGP keys with XMPP, for starters. And I can use OMEMO. Matrix supports neither afaik.

Bend over and I’ll show ya

Self documenting!

The counterpoint is that Nedry was hired to stand up infrastructure and is likely the one responsible for not properly staffing that effort. The CEO isn’t going to know anything about that and will naturally defer to the people hired for those tasks. If Ned says it’s all fine and he’s coming in under budget, no reason to doubt him.

We all know lone wolf types which will hack together systems and pretend like everything is fine just so they’ll never be bothered by the presence of others questioning their brilliance.

I’ll take my award in all ones please

This is honestly the only reasonable explanation. Adult Swim was millennial counterculture, and now there is an effort to undo it and erase it from mainstream history.

I kind of get retiring video IPs to save on residual payments, but games which are pay per download should always be revenue neutral at best. This just reeks of shitty culture war rebranding.

MFW I climb a light pole outside of the McDonald’s to install my solar powered rpi jump box and find that there are already seven other solar powered rpi jump boxes up there.

MFW this is the fourth pole I’ve tried.

Opinion bad

Imagine unironically praising Java.

LAUGHS IN PRINCIPAL

You all disgust me.

This attitude is a very slippery slope, unfortunately.

Anyone who says Matlab is their favorite programming language is very misguided

Me, giving a six hour presentation on why Jira is hot garbage at my next job interview:

My last words on death row, reciting my self published book on why Jira is hot garbage:

With a senior engineer it’s perfectly reasonable to just say “ok, implement it and let me know how it works.”

Like the whole point is that they should be relatively independent and capable of taking ideas from paper to product.

You forgot to mention the part where she is violently transphobic

It’s an ontological argument. OP is creating a categorical distinction where “sound” is the cognitive process by which pressure waves are perceived, eg as information. I think it’s a fairly common distinction to make, but it is also kind of unsatisfying is the sense that it feels a bit like linguistic nihilism.

You should know that in most filesystems that are not NTFS, spaces in file names are not well supported.

It’s just an SDR with an app store

Or ctrl-b " pkill vim for my tmux enjoyers

The five eyes stuff is dumb. For starters, this is is a technical question, not a political one. If your OPSEC relies on guessing where the CIA does or does not have resources, you fucked up.

I can assure you, the CIA is perfectly capable of buying colo racks in Slovakian datacenters.

In addition to this, boost your anonymity by buying second hand equipment off local marketplace apps. And make a mobile jumpbox that you can plug into random USB ports and leave there, connected to public wifi.

Tbh, I’m hesitant to ever suggest a Chinese VPN. That’s a great way to paint yourself with a target. 90% of good tradecraft is never giving anyone a reason to look at you.
