No one should be buying a SATA SSD in 2025 if they have the option to use a PCIE SSD, which every new motherboard has at least one spot for. This isn’t AI, this is the ending of a standard.

This isn’t the US vs EU, it’s Trump vs EU. I don’t know anyone that thinks Russia is more of an ally than the EU.

Great, I applaud Arizona College. But anecdotes won’t move the needle on getting more men into fields where they are massively underrepresented.

Just because you think it is a good idea to have more male teachers doesn’t mean there is a push to have more male teachers. If there were, we would probably have more male teachers.

Yeah and Israel is using Microsoft technology to commit war crimes. Which is the greater evil? (Forgive the whataboutism, but the handwringing is real)

> Get rid of the SS tax cap. You don't pay any SS tax above 180k ish, which seems silly. Get rid of the cap and let every earned dollar participate in the program. It doesn't feel like that hard of a sell. No. Frankly getting a

$5 in 2015 is worth $7 in 2025 dollars. Combine that with higher memory prices and overall increases in supply chain costs/tariffs, and I really don’t see $10 as being that bad.

And this is why society is going to shit. “Live free, no regrets” has to be one of the most narcissistic memes I’ve ever heard of. If a person commits to a partner and/or a family, they shouldn’t just hit the reset button because they’

That of course isn’t what I meant. I make sure the code I produce isn’t inefficient or verbose.

Companies care about output, not code typed out by programmers. Most of the code I write now is generated, and I’m “writing” more code than ever, and better tests. Many devs I know are doing the same with generative AI. Why isn’t that a win
