Or the university could pay 3$ per year to host a DB that all clubs can use. I’m sure you can imagine a make believe world where no one has money and everyone cares and is tech savvy and yet no one can be trusted at the same time, and in th

This is the worst financial advice anyone could take. For context, this is the equivalent of someone telling you to invest all your savings in the company you work for and use all your salary to buy more stock.

Tell me a single useful real world use case that Ethereum is being used in today, a decade after its creation If I can solve that problem with another simpler, older technology it doesn’t count as useful. I don’t care if you can pay for thi

Yes, but they don’t. So clearly AI is a foot gun. What are doing about it?

>A lot of people are terrible drivers, terrible judge of their own character, and terrible recreational drug users. Does that mean we need to remove all those things that can be misused? Uhh, yes??? We have completely reshaped our cities

Sorry, Utkar the manager will fire you if you don’t use his shitty calculator. If you take the time to check the output every time you’ll be fired for being too slow. Better pray the calculator doesn’t lie to you.

it’s not “some people”, it’s practically everyone that doesn’t understand how these tools work, and even some people that do. Lawyers are running their careers by citing hallucinated cases. Researchers are writing papers with hallucinated r

If AI fraud is good at avoiding detection via peer review that doesn’t mean peer review is useless. If your unit tests don’t catch all errors it doesn’t mean unit tests are useless.

Do you make it a habit of calling your coworkers “slackers” and “leeches”? Maybe that’s why your coworkers are so bad. If everywhere you go smells like shit maybe check your shoes.

Yes, I have quit a remote company because it wasn’t for me. I deliberately live somewhere with a good commute. These are choices I made for myself. If you can’t make the same choices that’s fine, but don’t come in to every thread about RTO

I think this is a situation where you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Network effects mean that the more people are in the office the better. On the other hand, if even a single team member is remote then the entire team must adapt to

So you’re the reason the office is noisy hahaha Hope you can find something that suits you!
133.
by amrocha 10mo ago
No, it was never about choice, you misunderstood. Yes, offices have downsides, but they also have benefits. To get the benefits the majority of a team needs to be in the same office. Having tried both, I prefer working in an office with cow

by amrocha 10mo ago
I disagree, and clearly most companies opting for some kind of RTO are on my side. The biggest benefit of an office is collocation. People need to be forced to come to an office or they won’t do it, and team efficiency will go down. Even if

I can make unfair generalizations too. A lot of people who prefer remote work have a superiority complex over their peers. They’re usually hard to work with and unreliable, and think that as long as they’re performing their individual tasks

I don’t know what you mean by today’s because most companies I’ve worked at have had pretty nice offices. Even the open space ones were quiet and spacious. The one exception was a startup at an incubator.

That’s odd, in my experience most engineers know to at least send a slack message first before talking to a fellow engineer in person, unless it’s an emergency.
138.
by amrocha 10mo ago
imo that’s the worst of both worlds. That’s what my company does, and none of the engineers ever come in. My manager comes in when he has meetings, and I’ll go in sometimes, but I’m usually alone. None of the benefits of collocation with al

That’s only because you go to the office once in a blue moon. If it was your daily routine you’d get used to it and be productive there too, just maybe not as much as when you’re home. Did you work in an office before covid? I’m sure your p

by amrocha 10mo ago
I’m not the one saying people who prefer working from home are lazy, irresponsible slackers though, am I? I just explained my experience. Funny that you perceive that as an attack on yourself. What does that say about you?
141.
by amrocha 10mo ago
It’s called soft launching. Obviously it would be better if everyone was in the same office, but some people might have moved in the remote years and now their commutes are longer. So you accommodate for those people by letting them go to a

by amrocha 10mo ago
Good thing for you that you’re productive anywhere. I’m not. I much prefer working from an office. I’m way more efficient and happy in an office than working from home. It’s not a matter of mentality. It’s a matter of being in an environmen

And I’m saying that that dominance is mostly in irrelevant categories like ads and entertainment, so it would be at best an annoyance if those companies were to disappear. There’s very few internet companies doing truly unique, irreplaceabl

Honestly yeah. You are complicit and it is your fault. Either donate significant amounts, protest, or move.

That’s 1% money. At that point the issue isn’t how much money you made but what you did with it.
146.
by amrocha 10mo ago
That sounds like a nightmare. Let’s sell out a generation so that we can consume more. Wow.
147.
by amrocha 10mo ago
And that money would stay in their countries respective economies and everyone would be better off for it. Maybe someone would start a local alternative. It would be used productively instead of on ads that make everyone’s lives worse.

Yes, it is better, which is why facebook is the only old school social network left. Do you really think we would be using myspace if it still existed?

Active users on twitter has gone down massively the past 4 years! As far as we know, because the company doesn’t report numbers as proactively as it used to. And sure, you can say people just moved to other platforms, but I don’t think you

They actually do. I used to like twitter and now I don’t use it anymore because it’s gone to shit. People used to google stuff before it became click bait content and ads. Same thing is gonna happen with ai chatbots. You begrudgingly use th
