    Why is the grass always greener on the other side? How do you learn to be satisfied?

    Jump

  • "Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied, with knowin' I got no one left to blame." -- Gordon Lightfoot, "Carefree Highway"

    I think a big part of happiness is rooted in learning what you can control, taking responsibility for it, and accepting what you can't control.

    Easier said than done sometimes. But, I tend to stress a lot less about a situation when I've sorted this out for myself.

  • OpenAI could reportedly run out of cash by mid-2027 — analyst paints grim picture after examining the company's finances

  • I've worked too many places where "b" is absolutely the answer. Even small companies that you've probably never heard of where management is drinking the koolaid. They usually don't like being asked why someone would actually pay for whatever bullshit they're selling. The answer, almost without exception, is because one of their CEO buddies told them it was a good idea.

  • Windows 7 was peak Windows, at least from a usability standpoint.

  • If Donald Trump had ANYTHING to do with these gas stations, I wouldn't even consider filling up there. Sounds like a great way to get water in your fuel tank and your credit card info stolen.

  • I've found LLM's to be pretty decent at writing one-off scripts for boring tasks. "Baby wipe scripts." Use them to clean up the shit and throw them away.

  • [Serious] What are some advantages of being over 40 years old and getting older?

    Jump

  • Not giving a shit what other people think of you. I think this starts, for most people, earlier than their 40's but it's still great. I don't care about impressing anyone except me.

  • The bottleneck might be the air in the room

    Jump

  • Large commercial HVAC package units often have an option called an "economizer". It's just one or more dampers that allow the unit to exchange inside air with outside air. A typical use case is when the unit gets a call from the thermostat for AC and outside air temp is lower than the room temp.

    It's more for heating and cooling efficiency than air quality. Its also very rare for homes to have this kind of setup due the added cost and the fact that, at least in the US, package units are much rarer in residential installs. Fresh air circulation systems are a custom job which means $$$.

  • There are. They are just not currently traded on any stock exchange. That doesn't means you can't buy them.

  • The two worlds of programming: why developers who make the same observations about LLMs come to opposite conclusions

    Jump

  • " I'm kind of sick of this side to the argument even though it's mostly just people trying to fight insane push from board rooms, wanting everyone to adopt the tools.

    Pretty typical behavior from the higher ups. We go through this every hype cycle. Someone develops an air nailer, while we've been using hammers, and now everything needs to be fastened with a nail. Even though a nail is often not the correct fastener.

    We went through the same thing with "the cloud". I remember how every company was going to gleefully dismantle their data center and all the system admins were going to be unemployed. At least if you listened the talking heads and salespeople. Neither of those actually happened. But "the cloud" certainly changed things. If nothing else, it brought enterprise grade IT solutions to orgs that don't have the capital to build and maintain data centers.

    I get really skeptical whenever someone starts claiming a particular tech solution is a silver bullet. And LLM's are no silver bullet. But they're not going away either, whether the naysayers like it or not.

  • Mark Zuckerberg Orders His Employees to Start Having Fun Again After Brutal Layoffs Culled Their Colleagues

    Jump

  • I work for a company you've never heard of that just laid off ~13% of their workforce. Not a tech firm. Not even a business that has frequent layoffs. The recession was probably the last time this happened. Later the same day, I wander off to a conference room where I find one my colleagues. I asked him how he was doing and he said, "the thing that bugs me the most is that a whole bunch of people just got fired and we're supposed to keep going like nothing happened."

    I felt that. Something big happened. Layoffs like that basically destroy any trust that employees have in the organization. Not only do a bunch of people lose their jobs, they're often abruptly thrown out of the building. The ones who are left are left to wonder if they'll be next.

    Zuck is going to have face the fact that once that bell has been rung, it cannot be un-rung.
