This article was more of an advertisement for...something than any meaningful commentary. How good are tests written by AI, really? The junk "coverage" unit tests sure, but well thought out integration tests? No way. Testing co

The worst ever product: IBM FileNet! What an awful product. An acquisition, btw.

Haven't heard a damn thing about "RedHat" in years, though. It's dead as far as Linux distros go. I'm sure it's used in the IBM-o-sphere, but I'm just not around that at all.

Those are the positives. The downside is that the sales team presents you with really lousy contract opportunities and you are pressured to accept one knowing it is a crap assignment that isn't helping your career growth. And you can

Yes, the bench sounds great but it is incredibly nerve-wracking and I never liked that aspect of consulting at all. Better to just go to zero pay and be a free agent and if the company finds you another gig, great, but no promises either w

The same thing is going to happen with that covid "vaccine" study that claims there were no excess deaths found. Wait and see.

My Acura V6 got recalled due to main bearings being out of spec. I still haven't taken it in for that because the damn thing runs perfect and I don't want them to mess that up. But Honda, uh, did they forget how to build engines

Yeah, uh, all I did was buy BRK.B like a decade ago and it's up 172% or something like that. The only way I have seen people outperform is by having insider information.

How much are the expense ratios on those etfs you chose, though? I mean, Vanguard, Fidelity, Blackrock, and others have extremely low cost funds and etfs and it has been shown year after year and decade after decade that you can't bea

This. This all day. I used to paper trade using ThinkOrSwim and I was doubling and tripling my money effortlessly. Then I decided to move my strategy to the real deal and it didn't do very well at all. It was all bs.

In my experience, you get a few big winners, but since you have to keep placing new trades (e.g. bets) you eventually blow one and lose most of what you made. This is particularly true with options and futures trades. It's a stupid w

There are tons of used BMWs on the used market here in the states. They don't hold their value because everyone knows that some stupid thing is wrong with them that either can't be fixed or is so ludicrously costly to fix that it

I guarantee none of those "100% EV" people have experienced winter in Montana, or summer for that matter. Even the Dakotas are not EV friendly. It's more of a city thing. Go nuts in the city--I'm all for EVs in certai

I followed Indycar this past season, watched nearly every race and had planned on attending a race but then didn't make the trip. I'm not sure what Indycar is trying to be, tbh. The Indy 500 is a spectacle, the rest of the seaso

Then they don't belong in the law field or wherever, simple as that. My son has OCD pretty bad, and I know there are roles he is unsuitable for. One of the things he does is confesses about every little thing that happens--he can&#x2

I wouldn't hold that against him that much--the overabundance of handicapped parking spots is reason enough to game that one. It's ridiculous. My wife could have qualified for a placard because of her cancer and she was in a whe

My wife has a cousin who basically gamed the system for undergraduate and law school. She grew up white, middle class, but her dad, being of Mexican descent (US born) allowed her to play up the Hispanic angle on college applications, landi

Huh (Britney Spears head tilt)? Consumers have "built" PCs since the 80s. I was very upset when Apple started soldering RAM to motherboards in order to edge out the competition. Also, people modify and repair cars, I fixed my r

I read the discussion on a military-related forum and people had very different perspectives on the actual situation. The Academy isn't the only way in and most of the jobs don't pay that good until you are way further along. Tha

I agree with that take--a lot of tech stuff was buoyed by investment capital and everyone thought it was great until they had to start paying full price for it. Those massive data centers full of expensive, electricity and water sucking ha

It's too time consuming to create--I looked into doing some kind of "new tech" podcast with a colleague and it was just too much work for very little moolah.

As someone who was probably a consumer of such courses, thanks, first off. But second, what happened with me was I would be on the bench at my company and be going hard at training on various tools and technologies and then get whipsawed b

I'd sooner believe that a unicorn will fly over my house and poop out rainbow skittles on my lawn. Yeah /s for sure! You and I both know we're probably headed for revolutionary times.

I can't even imagine what time wasting bs the LLMs are finding with static analysis tools! It's all just a circle jerk everywhere now.
