  • Wait, are you seriously asking?

    Money. The answer is shitloads of money.

  • financial motivation desperation

  • Attending to the thing they intend to kill

  • I worked in a traditional office environment for the full decade before the pandemic, and I was constantly being distracted by "undisciplined" people. There was always someone having a loud conversation in a quiet workspace or coming to my cubical to interrupt me with pointless bullshit.

    Going full remote has finally isolated me from the lack of discipline in office environments.

  • But also people who can work remotely would always have situations where they'd prefer not to.

  • If you look at his record, Massie is basically just a baby Rand Paul. Once Paul eventually retires, I fully expect Massie to run for (and win) his Kentucky Senate seat.

  • He's literally just the Ancient Aliens guy but with a PhD

  • Hear hear.

    I never really had any interest in "personal projects" until AI came along. Not because AI finally gave me the tools to work on those projects, but because it completely changed my perspective on the craft of writing code and made me appreciate the value in actually creating things by myself, for myself.

  • If you're someone who cares at all about the quality and consistency of your craft, there's absolutely nothing wrong with manually writing code.

    If you're a misanthropic "techno-feudalist" who thinks of code as nothing more than an asset to sell, then pumping out as much code as quickly as possible without any human intervention is a very attractive proposition.

    Tech, sadly, is absolutely infested with these people at all levels.

  • It says "ai generated" right below the image.

  • Their "European" stack also includes Anthropic, so... not a lot of conviction behind this switch, apparently.

  • Preach.

    The AI "revolution" is the thing that finally killed my imposter syndrome as a software engineer. Not because I can write better code than AI (that's a very low bar), but from listening to all these breathless idiots talk about how they're "10x-ing my productivity!" or how "AI has replaced search for me!" or how "In 6 months no one will have to manually write code anymore!"

  • I wonder... is this more common in all animals that have average litter size >= 2? Or is there something else special to cats that explains this phenomenon?

  • I think we need to amend Hanlon's Razor for the current era...

    Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence — or by the blind pursuit of toxic incentives.

  • Sometimes there's shit on the outside of the torlet.

  • I could triple my salary and scam CEOs out of their money at the same time? Damn... sign me up.

  • I'm not saying they're wrong, but geez... "Biden administration insiders" has to be one of the most unlikeable cohorts of people on earth.

    You're talking shit about one of your own as if you have no culpability, but if he was really so ineffective then why didn't Biden replace him with someone else? He ran HHS for 4 fucking years. At that point, any failure of Becerra's was willful incompetence on the part of the larger administration.

    Also Biden's peeps should be thrilled with this. Politically, Becerra is one of the most milquetoast establishment Democrats there is. He's exactly the kind of guy they normally root for...
