This assumes that Jr Dev wanted to be trained, and could be trained. I’ve known some AI-brain “devs” from before AI was a thing.
If someone can’t be bothered to read an error message, can we really be expected to teach them how to debug? Etc.
Americans are whining because they’ve allowed car companies to put out massive trucks that get… 6 kilometers per liter of petrol? And haven’t invested in public transit. And have been allowing for the construction of massive datacenters that, despite burning fossil fuels for most of their power, and also still drianing the power grids and making EV charging more expensive (not that any of these people have enough saved to buy an EV anyway). And the complainers are all a minority of “rural” voters who don’t live in cities, and can’t easily get to a grocery store, a pharmacy, or work without driving 30km there and 30km back. At least.
So yeah, when a daily commute is 10 liters, and most americans who have had a cold in the past 5 years are in medical debt now, going from 50€ per paycheck to 100€ per paycheck every 2 weeks on petrol spend is hefty, especially given how the US federal minimum wage is a little over 6€/hour, and that’s if the person still has a job at all, given the layoffs all over the place. Even if people are making 10€/hour on their commute job, gas price increases have just eatten an additional 5 hours of their labor every 2 weeks. If they go up any more, the Iran War’s ramifications will approach a 10% pay cut for the “average” American. (And this doean’t even account for the tax money being spent on the war, nor on whatever the outcome of the US debt exceeding its GDP will be, probably for the next generation).
Would those Americans have been better off buying fuel efficient cars, finding remote work to not have to drive so much, living closer to cities to benefit from public transit? Probably. But it’s a lot late to try to make those shifts for these people.
When american politics claims that no one has been listening to “middle America,” this is who they mean: the voters who are gullible enough to be oversold on “American Dream” and end up living paycheck to paycheck with no safety net.
The problem is that there is no helping them, so no one really tries. And the far right loves this, because it’s easy to give those people false hope, underdeliver, and then blame it on the left.
So alas, no, it isn’t any consolation that other countries are feeling this pain–that makes the situation feel more hopeless, rather than less.
Mobile keyboard without spellcheck, I make thr exact same typos as thst poster with my thick fingers.
The irony? 16GB is enough for running a mid-size LLM, to not connect up to the cloud.
The irony is that Doofenshmirtz is pretty good standin for an out of touch corpo CEO
Do people not know their own language when they write shit for publication? It’s proscribed, not prescribed. Fuck.
It’s exclusively about the leading vowel sound, rather than an actual vowel. E.g. it is a one-dollar bill, a unicorn, a European country, and an heirloom. There are plenty of initialisms that start with vowel sounds that are even less questionable, e.g. an NFL contract, or an FBI agent, vs a CEO, or a TMI situation. Regional differences exist, but are mostly about whether the leading sound is or is not pronounced, e.g. a historic occasion (american english) vs an historic occasion (british english).

Help, the potentially intentional grammatical error is making me engage and I hate it!
Sure.
But like, the author’s got some Bad Habits they are trying to bring over, and seem to consider their inability to replicate them as a problem?
I can’t find official apps for Airtable (which I use for work), Spotify, or Apple Music, but they all work fine in the browser in the short term, and I’ll revisit this later.
So, “I have to run these websites, that I used to run in dedicated memory-hungry Electron apps, in a browser instead” is something that’s missing? TBH, seems like a feature to me. Heck, things like Discord and Spotify run better in a firefox derivative than they do as “standalone apps” on any OS, Windows included.
I’m thinking more catastrophic stuff, like major outages for multiple days/weeks/months like from a hurricane, earthquake, etc. That’s the unexpected stuff that throws the local economy haywire, and if you know when it will begin and when it will end, it just takes reviewing what business historically thrive vs falter in that situation in order to profit off of the human suffering.
Review historical train delay timings in a given region, and extrapolate the reasons for them against future train delays. Do so for a variety of regions and cities, to become aware of natural disasters as well as likely geopolitical actions, buildibg up a predictive model that relies on and exceeds the capabilities of this superpower. Bet on or against rideshare services active in the region as appropriate, as well as local business. Determine the likelihood of events like olympics, world cup, etc ocurring in any given city in the near and distant future based on increased service runs. Bet on or against those events ocurring in those cities, on the boom to construction and local businesses in the short term, and on the subsequent economic contraction (that likely leads a reduction in train service by some number of months–also data that can be added to the predictive model). Determine when/where train timings accelerate or appear where they hadn’t before, suggesting a technological improvement and/or an expansion in service, suggesting city growth, and bet on the economic expansion in that region.
I hate this, thanks.

I put pop!_os on my surface pro 8 in an hour a week ago, having used only windows or macos for the past decade. No issues. They’ve upstreamed enough stuff to the linux kernel that everything except camera worked even without the surface_linux kernel. Steam runs just fine on it, as do all the games I’ve tried so far (obviously hardware is trash for gaming, but hey, if it was playable on windows, it’ll probably be smoother on linux at this point). If linux works on a microsoft surface, there’s no way that it won’t work on whatever machine you happen to have.
Back up your files, pick a distro, unlock your bootloader, and just go for it. Only requirement is to know how to… Run commands in a terminal.
No regrets.
You missed like, a huge amount. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiosis
You’re resorting to personal attacks without knowing who I am, what I do, what I do or don’t have on the wall behind me. You apply a blanket label on all people who you class a certain way, and when I disagree with your label and its implications, and recommend nuance, you class me further.
It sounds like you think very highly of yourself, or lowly of everyone else, or both.
What makes your opinions here worthwhile?
You just described Geeks. Geek and Nerd group labels can sometimes apply to the same people, but they are not synonymous, and a person can be one without the other.
