A few frames?

The horrors.

How’d it turn out, are we boned?

It filled a niche at the right place / right time.

It was the first MMO for many, so it still has a following / nostalgia factor.

Jobs and daycare.

Has cryptocurrency gone away?

Is it not merely an example of such failure?

Birthdays, bachelor parties, random poker nights.

It's far easier and has further reach than doing it manually.

I'm not so sure. I think it's fair to say that only people who can output good art / code are qualified to evaluate the output of ai.

It's like how product people / C levels have absolutely no understanding of what makes for good code or a good engineering shop (aside from perceived costs.)

It's kind of like folks wielding gen ai and calling themselves artists.

Questionable output, generally shunned by artisans.

But possibly good enough for some.

Some of us plan events / engage socially.

And these examples are not niche?

The "right thing" here is subjective.

If one uses a good source of entropy (e.g. dice rolls) then one will not "get screwed."

> I don't know why anyone would keep their wealth in something that requires so much technical excellence.

It's not for everybody, for sure.

Lighten up, friend. Oracle dropping Java support does not an e-waste make.

I had more than my fair share of SD failures running pis off their official power supplies.

It really is a high failure rate.

Except 9/10 times microservices end up wildly dependent on each other, yielding a distributed monolith. Better to use service oriented architecture and just ship the monolith, you can test easier and skip the extra layers of serialization / deserialization.

You're thinking of == which type coerces the non-empty string to boolean true.

PHP is not the only language that has this type of behavior.

Playing with legos is fine if you can afford them.

Parenting problems require parenting solutions.

How do you know they didn't? My college professor was formerly at NASA, where this stuff is important.

I recognize not everyone's work is [as] important, but we should still strive for excellence (and safety.)

Might as well eliminate the attack surface entirely, and ban computing.

You can just move on instead of furthering your own point.

And the cycle won't be complete without such a meta "analysis."

A battery. Which can catch fire. Around your finger?

Totally agree, completely different skillset. Every engineer I've seen "promoted" as such becomes miserable, and frankly is not very good at their new role, effectively making it a double loss.

Not in my experience. They just regurgitate code, and juniors don’t know if/why it’s good or bad and consequently can’t field questions on their PR.

“It’s what the LLM said.” - Great. Now go learn it and do it again yourself.

Big yikes bro.

Try webkitdirectory file attribute for browser access to the file system.

That’s not the point.

Point is: when @lt100, @lt101, … , @lt999 all vouch for something, it’s worthless.

Indeed, it's relatively impossible without ties to real world identity.

I'm in the same boat, the idiosyncrasies of postgres are real; mysql / sqlite are far more predictable.
