Not op but I interpreted the gross part to be the idea engineering is the end all be all of careers and more importantly can't simply just be a creative outlet for some folks.

The edgy and adversarial tone didn't really make sense until the end of the article. Then it was pretty clear what this is.

When it comes to shell scripting, I personally avoid golf at all costs. I'll take an extra verbose, easy script to parse (for a human) any day of the week when it comes to operations. Yes it's a tradeoff. Every line of code is a l

For me, it's an uncanny valley thing. It's close, but missing something small and intangible which leaves me ruminating on the "fakeness."

Both can be true. I think they try desperately to be meat, and they fail miserably.

This is such an odd statement to me. It almost sounds like you're claiming running is a scam propagated by the fats. Anyway as a to counter your annecdote: I ran every day for a decade before some injuries. I was in quite a few clubs a

My point is: the exact same was said of every form of mass communication. Every new form was said to be a herald of the end times, and yet here we are, in many ways stronger than ever. Im not arguing one way or another, I'm just pointi

People have done this on their own behalf since the dawn of time, so it's not really clear to me why it's so often framed as an AI issue.

I feel like it probably has particilar applications, especially if seamlessly integrated, but I also can't but help feeling like there's a certain level of "protocol fatigue" for non-tech folks. In my experience a lot of

Do you mean useful in general or useful in this specific application? If the goal is transmitting a message how do coordinates from a "read-only" device facilitate a p2p transfer?

I'll ask more directly: What's the use case and/or value proposition for the average person? I've heard about it a few times over the last 24 hours, and I'm relatively off social media, so that to me indicates a con

You asserted without evidence they "probably mostly" failed. Thats a very different statement than your "tenous grasp" claim. If you're going to make sweeping generalizations, don't be a coward about it. What&#

Your still lying. Saying you didn't say something which you very much did, and then claiming you said something completely different are forms of lying. It's not the opposition to propaganda folks bristle with, it's the self-

It's so funny to me you'd whine about "preaching" and then take such a needlessly judgemental and demonstrably false stance, and then double down and lie when it's pointed out. Truly, a person of science.

They did say they go to the mall every week. As far as I'm concerned, in 2025, that's akin to announcing "I'm a psychopath!"

The lawsuit appears to be about the lack of refunds, and even mentions Delta explicitly declined help from Microsoft and CrowdStrike. So how does that indicate Delta thinks "it's" serious? And what is "it"?
