Product placement has long been accepted in movies TV and music. I'm going to guess that it will be more or less "fine" if it's in responses (I.e. people will grumble but still use it because its too useful).

Saddest part is that people mostly won't care. See also: - Google - Social media - ad blockers still being relatively niche

Regulation and strong unions are the only thing holding airlines back from doing what the cruise lines did long ago: importing all of their labor from cheaper countries and paying them trash while working them to the bone. In the meantime,

Six months ago, we _literally did not have Claude Code_. We had MCP, A2A and IDE integrations, but we didn't have an app where you could say "build me an ios app that does $thing" and have it build the damn thing start to fin

I was a BA forever ago during a summer job in college. That job wasn't for me at all! Looking back on the experience, putting together a FRD felt much like writing a CLAUDE.md with some prompts thrown in!

Look, there are at least dozens of us who like and enjoy programming for programming's sake and got into this crazy industry because of that. Many of these people made many of the countless things we take for granted every day (network

Those levels bake in the expectation of "codez real gud" at FAANG/MANGA/whatever style tech companies since the technical complexity of their operations is high and a high skill bar needs to be hurdled over to contribute

S1 and S2 of The Bear were incredible. S3 felt like it tried too hard. Many of the scenes in the show were inspired by Will Guidara's book, Unreasonable Hospitality, which was mostly a reflection of his time running Eleven Madison Park

I found Nosferatu to be a snooze fest (watched it in the theater by myself so I could take it all in) but maybe it needs a rewatch.

My pleasure! I forgot one more thing. Your technical aptitude carries less weight as an SE. Getting the technical win at a customer is what you're evaluated on. Since you're almost always working with engineers and technical stake

It doesn't matter in this context. What matters is the hypothetical person in my post thinking "this is what will happen if my city proposes a train" and voting against any legislation trying to bring this forward where they

As a fellow public transit fan, you're on the money. Even the shining stars of transit in the US --- NYC MTA subway and CTA --- have huge qualuty of life issues. I can't fault someone for not wanting to ride trains ever again when

I hope you like being on call and having to tell management why you're not hitting your number and "forecasting" your way to close the gap. I also hope you like golf! And drinking! There can be UNREAL amounts of drinking as a

I made the jump into SE (sales/solution engineering) three years ago after a long career as a SRE/systems/software engineer (the kind that found any excuse to break out ilspy, windbg, gdb and/or tcpdump on the job) and h

More and more businesses are shifting their operations and outreach to IG and TikTok, so deciding how to live in a society is increasingly becoming "live under a rock" or "enter the casino and hope to not get swallowed up by

Just like rail and fiber, the GiganticCos will own foundational model development (from which oss models originate). Unlike rail and fiber, these models will continue to threaten multiple industries simultaneously while yielding power back

Couldn't agree more. AI as it's designed today is very heavy on the "f u; got mine" vibe.

But that's the entire flippin' problem. People are being forced to use these tools professionally at a stagering rate. It's like the industry is in its "training your replacement" era.

This is exactly the right analogy here. FSD is very very good most of the time. It's so good (well, v14 is, anyway), it makes it easy to get lulled into thinking that it works all the time. So you check your watch here, check your phon

You _think_ you're thinking as hard. Reading code != writing it. Just like watching someone do a thing isn't the same as actually doing it.

It's the same with Gemini for Google Workspace. I asked it to create a slide deck for me, within Slides, based on a block of notes I wrote. It wouldn't do it. The chat assistant at gemini.google.com wouldn't do it either. The

They sure as hell do not. SuperCruise only worked in pre mapped areas and bails whenever there's construction or deviation to plan. It's analogous to Tesla AP2 at best. FSD works EVERYWHERE, almost any time.

The show For All Mankind kind-of hinted at how the labor problem would be solved: recruit like the military and promise huge bonuses that will probably not be realized because space is risky business

The downfall of Reddit is so depressing to think about. I trusted Reddit wholeheartedly in the 2010s. Redditors taught me the life advice I didn't learn growing up: how to shave, how to negotiate job offers, how to do things around the

It descended into glitch-ass slop towards the end, which I found funny. Very telling of an LLM/VLM since OCR would print straight garbage if it can't map a glyph to text. This is actually a great example of why domain knowledge is
