_obviously_ they meant "work" as in "employment", stop being obtuse

> your whole life

pretty sure the diaper changing part only lasts a couple years

can't one of them just put his thumb in the hole? duhhh

garbage AI slop

That's why I drive with my eyes closed. Looking at the other cars on the road isn't going to have any effect on them.

I think "missile fuel is a binary" is just a very inarticulate attempt to say "there are two types of missile fuel"

It's like having a whole team of developers to help me!! Except they're all brain damaged and completely incapable of learning from experience and never improve on their brain damaged ways. On the plus side, I can let my frustration out by calling them fucking morons without getting HR mad at me

The main difference is that horses are incapable of organizing a revolution

Wikipedia says it's been Iranian/Omani territorial waters for quite a while:

> In 1959, Iran altered the legal status of the strait by expanding its territorial sea to 12 nmi (22 km) and declaring it would recognize only transit by innocent passage through the newly expanded area. In 1972, Oman also expanded its territorial sea to 12 nmi (22 km) by decree. Thus, by 1972, the Strait of Hormuz was completely "closed" by the combined territorial waters of Iran and Oman.

the correct answer is that the program will launch nethack, duh

making life difficult for _people i don't like_ is a worthy pursuit

> clearly capable of implementing on short notice, sweeping changes to policy

well, as long as the policy changes in question can be implemented by executive order. good luck doing anything that requires actual legislation.

> The problem remains that the US voter consistently demonstrates they don't actually care about these problems though, compared to using the state to intentionally inflict misery on subgroups they don't like.

what does this mean, exactly? it sounds like you're trying to say that things would have been different, if only those pesky voters hadn't voted for Trump. but they _did_ vote for someone other than Trump in 2020, and that did very little to affect the issues mentioned in the article

ofc a lot of the "innovation" in our tech industry is pointless at best and actively harmful at worst (adtech surveillance, crypto bullshit, prediction markets, outright gambling, etc. etc. etc.), so maybe the euros have the right idea? then again, their model doesn't make the Line go Up as much

is this some kind of sarcasm that my iq isn't high enough to understand? pretty sure everyone hates the idea of dynamic pricing

thank you for doing this, it gave me the push I needed to finally switch to zed. vscode has really been going downhill for a while now. it's sad to watch, it used to be a really nice editor

> No one reads docs

sooo uhh how do _you_ learn how to use a new library? just throw random shit at the wall until something sticks?

> even if

are you too stupid to understand the notion of a hypothetical? how did you get on hn in the first place?

> I’m like… wait, I actually don’t know.

reminds me of the experience of reading a math text without doing the exercises, thinking that you've understood the material, and then falling flat on your face when you attempt to apply your "understanding" to a novel problem. there's a significant difference between passively reading something and really putting active effort into it. only the latter leads to actual understanding ime

i've been told that it's totally fine because once the codebase turns into spaghetti you can simply tell the agent to refactor it and then everything will be ok

> The end user doesn't care.

well, they think they don't. until their pii gets leaked all over the internet because whoops our s3 bucket was publicly accessible, or until the service goes down because whoops our llm deleted the prod db...

> better in every other conceivable way

except for being like 10x more expensive, of course

> easier infrastructure build out

lol yes we should just replace Amtrak with 40 lane highways full of waymos. great idea

the LIRR also goes from manhattan to jamaica, and it does in fact take 20 minutes or so (21 according to google maps)

yeah lol, in NYC 3 years and 20% would be regarded as an unprecedented success

It's so embarrassing that we banned forcing employees to work sixteen hour days without lunch breaks. Just go to another employer.

Banning an employment model should be unconstitutional.

shopping, 2000: go to store. take item off shelf. hand cashier indicated amount of money. leave.

shopping, 2030: use your personalized AI agent ($100/month subscription) to simultaneously impersonate a dozen clients across five different online shopping platforms with the goal of tricking the sellers' AI agents into thinking you're poorer than you are so that you can pay $5 for bananas instead of $25.

literally zero nines of uptime lmao, do they win an award?

seriously, what kind of ignorant rube would be opposed to Technological Progress(TM)? Pol Pot, Lysenko? thank god our society is run by serious people, the kind who understand the importance of ensuring that the Line goes Up at all costs

iphone 18: now with ball and/or pussy scanner!

> waaaahhhhh you broke your promise!! to your employer!!

my current employer broke no fewer than two promises they had made to me within a few months of my starting there. they did this simply because they could: it was cheaper for them and they knew there was little I could do in response. so you'll forgive me if I don't give half a fuck about these people, and do as little work as i can get away with

hmmmm ok, what if we add a bit more profanity to that? perhaps some extra exclamation marks? maybe that'll make the agents actually follow the rules?

... because that's how every other cloud provider API works? the AWS console makes you confirm before deleting a bucket; DeleteBucket does not
