someone at work unironically said they use ai to compose "thoughtful responses" to people, and my immediate thought was that what they are doing is the literal opposite of thoughtful

Ah yes, arbeit macht frei

6. ceo/cto see the writing on the wall and exit before any blame sticks, receive a nice exit package, find another company to ruin

i use my steam deck on my tv all the time as a fairly weak steam machine. i also have a ps5 that i haven't bothered to turn on in at least a year. being able to convert my disused ps5 into a more powerful steam machine actually seems like a bit of an upgrade to my current setup.

i guess my point was that it isn't a given that hardware will always be cheaper, considering that memory prices this past year have gone through the roof.

you may argue that it is an outlier and capacity will increase to meet demand, which it probably will, but who's to say that won't just mean further demand from unlimited money ai companies and then further increased consumer prices?

i think they meant that the people they know having trouble finding jobs are not engineers

it's one thing to openly self-promote your project, and another thing to have created multiple accounts that spam links to your project on a weekly basis

just a meta note that the submitter, aanthonymax, likely only posted this to launder karma to avoid being shadowed for spamming their github project. a quick look at their post history shows that they only post links to their github project and then occasionally extremely low effort random mdn or other useless links to try to balance our their account. their previous account was shadowed for basically the same thing
