Up until about 2 years ago, the kids taking calculus were all becoming SW engineers for 3x the pay. With the way the job market for entry-level engineers is trending lately, maybe now there will be some left over for Ford to hire.

I'm not in SV either and $120k would be well below average for someone with 30 years experience in my area. Of course, "in tech" can mean a lot of things. From what I have seen, tech writers and IT help desk folk don't m

The BBC made a mistake and their response shows that they strive to present information accurately and will not tolerate attempts at programming. That is a stark contrast to a network where misrepresentation of facts is the norm. I think it

I mainly only ever go on Facebook to buy/sell things on marketplace these days. Since it is the default landing page, I do see my feed and notice that it does have very little content from my actual friends. It’s mostly ads and “things

Local residents literally called the proposal to accept a grant from the last administration to update the flood warning system “woke Biden communism.” They voted to abandon themselves and innocent kids paid the price

On the whole I agree, but there are 2 concerning details: 1. The possibility of allowing exceptions at the discretion of the administration is ripe for corruption. 2. The 24 hour notice for visa holders out of the country added unnecessary

To those around you, there is a big difference between having a video recording device in your pocket compared to on your head. I would personally feel pretty uncomfortable if someone pulled up to the next stall in the workplace bathroom wi

Can you clarify the type of right-leaning content you are referring to? I would not expect comments such as “we should lower taxes and reform entitlement programs“ to be subject to censorship very often.

Limits on what? Collecting health data? Seems like consumers can make the choice to buy devices that they are comfortable with and if the device supports it, opt out of collecting any data they aren’t comfortable with

It definitely has that petty, defensive vibe similar to the current administration as well as Elon Musk companies. Narcissistic leadership seems to be the common characteristic

This is not surprising. Authoritarianism is not bound to any specific policy other than consolidation of power. Capitalism is not some sacred cow that would be exempt from that

It really depends on the scale of the code you are asking it to produce. The sweet spot for me with current models is about 100-200 lines of code. At that scale I can prompt it to create a function and review and understand it much faster t
