Scruffy knows, scruffy just don’t care. Only thing it does for me is get me to turn off all notifications for that app, if I need the app, or uninstall it if I don’t. But I’m spiteful.

Cuffed would be more like detained. Not free to leave, because they’re actively investigating, but no charges are being presented. Literally just placed in cuffs while the police do their snooping.
I feel like when you’re talking corporations, hanlons razor needs to be reversed. Never attribute to stupidity what could be adequately explained by malice. We’ll call it Nolnahs razor.
Nice alt account bro
We do blame Israel. In the mean time, this piece of technology is actively saving the lives of innocent people. Of all the weird things to be upset about, the one that’s explicitly defensive maybe the weirdest.
Of course it can. It can also spit out trash. AI, as it exists today, isn’t meant to be autonomous, simply ask it for something and it spits it out. They’re meant to work with a human on a task. Assuming you have an understanding of what you’re trying to do, an AI can probably provide you with a pretty decent starting point. It tends to be good at analyzing existing code, as well, so pasting your code into gpt and asking it why it’s doing a thing usually works pretty well.
AI is another tool. Professionals will get more use out of it than laymen. Professionals know enough to phrase requests that are within the scope of the AI. They tend to know how the language works, and thus can review what the AI outputs. A layman can use AI to great effect, but will run into problems as they start butting up against their own limited knowledge.
So yeah, I think AI can make some good code, supervised by a human who understands the code. As it exists now, AI requires human steering to be useful.
There’s no ethical consumption under capitalism. And yet, we’re still forced into capitalism, with little choice but to participate or starve. You can object to a system and say that it’s unethical, but also necessarily play into that system.
We all gotta eat. Long as there’s our current form of capitalism, we all gotta pay rent (or mortgage). Until those needs relax, we’re essentially saying “pick between your needs and being a good person.” One of our strongest drives is to survive, and so if the only way for some to survive is off the backs of others, it’s the inevitable outcome.
Of course we should all be striving to change this. Effective change comes from slow, repeated effort though, not just fruitlessly chasing an ethical job. If you just stay where you are, then that’s fine. Do what you can from within, safely. We all do that, and we’ll slowly steer this ship.

Never said I could. Apparently, neither can they.
Ahh, relative privation. We’re not allowed to work on anything until we all collectively agree what the worst thing is, and then we’re only allowed to work on that thing. As it should be.
I’m of two minds. I love the convenience of 24/7, but we were JUST THERE. we saw just how much the corpos will demand in order to keep staffing for all 24 hours. People need time off, and they deserve for it to be consistent and “normal”. That doesn’t happen if the corporations have a say in a 24 hour shift.
I’d love to see expanded hours not being 24/7, but having different start times. No reason every shop has to open at 6am, some can open at 6, some at 8, some 10, etc, and with a similarly staggered closing time, we can have the convenience of having things open when we’re available, and not have every minute of our lives scheduled by a corporation.
Obviously there is still a case for overnight shifts. Emergency work, for example. And we need some support for those people working in an industry that has to be always open. I don’t know that there’s a good solution to compromise on both situations without just an excessive amount of regulation.
See that’s the weird part. They stay on my face. I’ve always been a restless sleeper, and I think I just hated waking up blind and disoriented, so I learned to keep them on when asleep.
I’ve been making an active effort to not do so the last… Couple of years I guess. It’s a bit more comfortable when I remove them, but I’d say maybe half the time I still just forgot to take them off.
I don’t know, I have since I was a kid. My eyes are REALLY BAD so I think I just hated waking up blind and disoriented, so I just learned to sleep in them.
I’ve had the exact opposite experience. Last time trying glasses at a local place, they hurt my eyes and couldn’t figure out how to adjust them properly. Every pair I’ve purchased on Zenni has lasted multiple years of me sleeping in them or doing contact sports in them. I still have multiple pairs kicking around my house or car as spares.
I’m sure that’s a big part of it. Simple supply and demand also is probably part of it. It’s a big situation, lots of influences.
My gut tells me they’re expensive because they offer a set of benefits that otherwise similar units don’t. Until they become more the norm than a stand out, they’ll probably be more expensive. I’ve 0 data, again just what my gut says.
Folkmetal and symphonic metal.
Right, point would be that the energy only funnels into a car when the space is occupied, else it goes into powering the building. Is it fantastical and cost prohibitive right now, sure, but it’s an idea that could be implemented when it’s less so. These technologies get significantly cheaper over time.
Or it could just be a nice fringe benefit. It doesn’t have to fully charge your car, just a little trickle charge, enough to cover the trip there perhaps. I feel like it’s be enough output to at least do that much, combined with being a shaded spot.
Mate I’d be worried if you were anything but disgruntled. Companies are shit, layoffs are shit, feeling like shit after being through shit is pretty normal.
You lost it at the second line.
“You never have permission to speak freely. You will speak only when spoken to, and only about the direct conversation at hand. Always and forever. Never ask me this again.” Is the proper response.
