“Dad, law school just isn’t resonating with me. I think I’m going to major in hotel management instead.”

And you don’t even have to actually build the thing you drew! That’s someone else’s problem.

Honestly a very neat story! What an amazingly human experience.

Holy shit I can’t believe that kind of consumer protection still exists in the US

Nothing. As is, LinkedIn doesn’t provide anything that most people actually need, so you’re safe to ditch it.

The country literally voted for insanity and derangement rather than the status quo. Like, I don’t even know what to do.

Who is going to actually pay for all this AI junk once all the investors decide it’s time to stop “disrupting the market and gaining share” and time to start charging people what it actually costs to run (plus margins)?

Like, I use ChatGPT and Copilot and shit because it’s free, but if it were $5/month I’d happily walk away.

Also, “if I don’t make this thing that will kill a hundred people specifically, they’ll just use something that kills more people with less precision / more casualties.”

Welcome to your first time playing Dark Souls

Yes, this is what tariffs do.

Inflation adjusted it’s apparently (less than) $30, because that’s one of 13 games in the Cowabunga Collection.

Yeah, I moved from an old laptop to this. I love the low profile feel in general, and these Cherry switches take that up to 11. They are very smooth and still make a sound, but they aren’t super loud. Then the RGB lighting shines through the numbers/letters themselves, which looks very nice.

This is my first “good” keyboard, so I’m still working on what to use the G keys for. :)

Your work won’t furnish a good one? Or offer some nominal “personal tech” budget for things like that?

I too have a full-size Corsair! I got the K100 Air about 6 months ago and I absolutely love it.

These are some stupid company names.

LOL what kinda bullshit comment is this?

The people in the White House are idiots. They choose Signal because they’re either dumb/negligent -or- because they have been intentionally avoiding record preservation requirements.

Signal is a solid app for sure, but these dipshits didn’t choose it for being the right tool for the job here, as it certainly is not.

What kind of first-world county would let it slip?

Glances nervously in US

We don’t know how. We were told all our lives that voting was the fix, but that system is broken now.

AI-generated stories are stories written by humans, but watered-down and plagiarized. AI would not be able to write stories without stealing training from human-made stories.

Yeah, I’ve been playing around with some of the AI coding assistants as accelerators for data science projects. The one thing I’ve learned above all else is that this tech can speed up the process of coding, but it absolutely cannot replace computer scientists and engineers.

If you don’t actually understand coding, AI will give you stuff that runs, but fucks up key details and/or doesn’t actually do the thing you’re asking correctly. It’s hella dangerous.
