  • 99% of CEOs Expect AI-Driven Layoffs in the Next Two Years

    Jump

  • Layoffs of managers.

  • IT workers, which certs would you get that are quick to obtain in the help desk and general office IT expertise?

    Jump

  • Get any Linux sysadmin certificate! The world's infrastructure runs on Linux, CI/CD-pipelines have a heavy Linux bias, and compared to how Oracle or SAP certs have developed, anything certifying you as capable of installing, setting up, and administrating a network of productive Linux servers is imho the straightest way to a solid job.

  • Any dead franchises that can survive being rebooted?

    Jump

  • Aging 20-30 years in that future should be portrayed as ~10-15 years of aging in our timeline. People (esp. Inners) are far more long-lived thanks to advanced pharmaceuticals. See the coroner's bit about life expectancies in S1.

  • Rate my outfit, going to work

  • 7/10

  • I will be going on a school trip to Munich, Germany soon, anything I should know?

    Jump

  • Point is though, that you'll want no trouble with the law abroad, especially on a school trip. Keeping a respectfully low profile is never a bad idea.

    Though I do confirm that Munich police are quite chill and helpful.

  • Former Microsoft VP says Microsoft missed the AI wave like the internet and mobile, as Copilot scales back in Windows 11

    Jump

  • Conversely, being forced to use Excel with Copilot is the traditional punishment for unwarrantedly flogging somebody (you need to get consent first, mmkay?).

  • Locked

    whats going on with womensstuff?

    Jump

  • yes

  • What's that video game boss you've never been able to beat, or took you the longest to beat?

    ... fucking Hogger, man

  • Because the word "up" literally means "away from the planet" you will not find a single point on Earth where there is not exactly one general direction clearly definable as "up".

    But to get personal with you, I don't put any stock in the opinions of people who unironically say "if Earth is round...". This reply is for the poor souls who had to read your post due to my additional downvote not having saved them from it.

  • Rudy Giuliani hospitalized in critical condition: Spokesperson

  • tbf, this is a net positive for the right. That creep was a liability. A shame he got fired by Cheeto Benito too, his fuckups as a lawyer were classic.

  • The Free Market Lie: Why Switzerland Has 25 Gbit Internet and America Doesn't

  • Not that I am one, but I believe true libertarians should be rabidly pro anti-trust legislation, letting corporations fail, and a 100% inheritance tax above a threshold.

  • I concur with most answers here, describing LLMs as useful in specific situations (e.g. video editing), but straight-up unreliable whenever critical thinking and correctness are required (e.g. software development).

    What I'd add to this, is that whatever the benefits of the technology might be, the current monetary cost is orders of magnitude above profitability. The billions invested into hardware for data centres... that's just gone. Nvidia might sell off the unused hardware at a loss, unprofitable LLM data centres might still get repurposed into something useful, but the bets made on replacing human professionals with eternally stupid chatbots will never pay out. The money's already gone and we still haven't begun to experience the full extent of this economic disaster.

  • Crying is a free action

  • I still get flashbacks...

  • What are some Ship of Theseus bands, where all original members have been replaced by someone new?

    Jump

  • I like to joke that Equilibrium had more member changes than the contestant field of a casting show.

  • do you know any good non-english rap you’d recommend?

    I once heard someone say, 'Jobs are like high school but with adults.' Would you say that's accurate?

  • Swiss here

    fwiw, "section" means platoon in French.

    it's not that rare to get a male-only platoon, a company on the other hand...
