Which is too bad, because those recordings are extremely useful for harassment cases, worker safety violations, etc.

My back of the napkin calculation for S3's glacier tier says that would cost roughly 50 grand a year. That seems...reasonable?

IMO, at least however long the statute of limitations in that jurisdiction is for things like sexual harassment, physical/sexual assault, etc. Way too many of those types of cases go totally unpunished because there's no camera ev

This may be true, but I would expect Boeing, a titan of the industry and up until recently assumed leader of aviation safety, to retain footage for much, much longer for training and QA purposes. Yes, I'm aware this opens them up to al

90% of the comments in the codebase on the project I work on now are links to JIRA tickets and incident reports. AI can't and won't ever do that, and those comments are absolute gold. You can immediately read a seemingly less than

I honestly think the Hyperion series does a better job predicting the enshittification of everything at the hands of AI than anything Stephenson wrote. And as an added bonus, it throws in some really interesting thought experiments about wh

Unending confidence and carefully curated reality distortion fields. Having watched the CEO at a previous job do it, it's infuriating and a gigantic pain in the ass for engineers to have a leader lie to investors and then have to deal

Depending on the altitude, they could keep these within class G airspace, which means VFR's job is to see and avoid. I think that's a pretty defensible solution as a pilot who spends all of his time in VFR operating in Class E&#x2

From where I sit in game platform tech, I didn't hear about a single layoff on the tech side of the company. Maybe a studio team got axed? That's a relatively regular occurrence and basically non-news in Hollywood.

"Mass Layoffs" seems...suspect. I haven't heard of a single person in my sphere of influence being hit by layoffs, and I work with a lot of folks. Where did you get your info OP?

I felt this article deep in my old creaky bones. I hated math in middle school and high school. This is despite loving science, and enjoying math all the way through Algebra 1. However, when I started taking Algebra 2 and beyond, it seeme

I think you're falling prey to Hanlon's Razor. What probably happened here is something approaching the following conversation: $PM: Hey $ENGINEER, it looks like this "arr ess ess" thingy has very few users, do you know

I feel like this is a veiled attempt to be extremely, grossly sexist, but at the risk of taking the bait, yes I'm absolutely sure she would.

AI has already hurt plenty of people though; we already have examples of biased "AI policing", artists and writers are getting their work stolen left and right, and I've heard tell of several instances of seriously vulnerable

As someone who is mentoring a budding software engineer, let me offer you a different perspective. I have a friend who got a fine arts degree in college and has spent the last several years working crappy odd jobs to make ends meet, and fin

The problem is that there were lots of folks hired with the explicit promise that remote was here to stay. This is at best a rug-pull; IMO it's like your salary suddenly being slashed by 20% a few months after you started with no expla

I see GPT and similar LLMs as basically like managing an over-eager intern. Have you ever tried to do that? They're overflowing with ideas and knowledge and passion, and "all" you have to do is point them in the right directi

How will you tell AI what you want to build? I'll take an example from my current work: I'm currently working on adding producing data to a kafka feed from an API server that will be aggregated downstream into a big huge in-memory

AI will never write software for the same reason professional chefs will never be replaced by robots. Sure, certain parts of our jobs (the fast food equivalent work) will be assisted, and then replaced, with AI help. Ops is already benefitt

Because capitalism doesn't provide enough of a punishment mechanism to discourage this type of behavior? Especially the protectionist crony capitalism that exists in most of the "free world".

I know this isn't what you meant, but "the grift that keeps on griving" gave me an excellent laugh.
