That’s the thing about dog whistles, they’re full of plausible deniability.

I think that depends on the person, the language, and how familiar they are with the language. Someone's "what the fuck" is another's "obviously it can do that".

Recently, I ripped usage examples out of a rust project's README.md, and put them in doc comments. Almost all of them were broken due to small changes over time, and I never remembered to update the readme. `cargo test` runs doc commen

It stands out because the flow and tone was clearly AI generated. It’s fluff, and I don’t trust it was written by a human who wasn’t hallucinating the non-company related talking points.

It’s because the article’s main goal is to sell me the company’s product, not inform me about RAG. It’s a zero calorie article.

That’s the thing about age discrimination, they don’t care that you’re eager, they care that you’re over 50. How are you supposed to demonstrate you’re not just another ossified old fart if your résumé goes straight in the bin?

How many employees do you think msft has that don’t live within that 50 mile radius? I’d bet it’s an incredibly small percentage. They chose 50 miles because it’s big enough to cover almost everyone. I’m within that but my commute is two ho

Yeah, I'd be spending 30% of my 40-hour work week in traffic if I were to commute in (~2 hours each way).
