It was true when I started to work in this industry ~8 years ago. But of course YMMV especially depending on country and company

Maybe something more fitting would be the German unemployment benefits: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%BCrgergeld It’s of course not the same as UBI, but something close to it …

I thought the main value of juniors was that you grow them into seniors, not really the random scripts they write?

That’s somewhat true (in my case it’s it’s laughably simple though). I also never said that tools like pandoc are obsolete now. Just in my case they are already overpowered and I m…

Here is a list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_basic_income_pilots Probably not the scale you imagine but there have been plenty of tests.

Yea but that still requires a non-zero amount of time to setup and most importantly maintain and keep up to date. Pure HTML generated from a text file just works and probably will …

That’s exactly my plan. Too burned out on the npm ecosystem. I don’t have time to update all that shit constantly for a fucking static HTML page

Yea I tried Astro but I don’t want to learn their way of doing things, have breaking changes every x months/years and who knows in a couple years they maybe also are screwed. Pure …

My personal page runs on 11ty since the last 3 years and I enjoyed it a lot. I’ll probably replace it with pure HTML soon - I found that I don’t need a SSG anymore, I can just use …

The board of directors are also people in power - why not replace them with an LLM as well if it works so well for CEOs?

If you check the collection most nights had ~3 bands playing

It’s one of the few (the only?) org that I donate to without second thoughts

Leadership is also a very human thing. I think most people would balk at the idea of being led by an LLM. One of the main functions of leaders (should be) is to assume responsibili…

The problem is that they need to find some way to not only make the money back but multiply it. That’s where the “you’re getting screwed” comes into play - we don’t know yet how th…

The problem is how to make money from something that is more or less solved.

Yup you you just can’t film them having sex

No I said I have no sympathy for the old white men who hold all the power. Doesn’t mean every white man is in power or wealthy. I think you just want to be upset or something. Anyw…

Oh I see that makes sense, thanks for the explanation!

Can you share any of these examples? I haven’t been able to find any…

I don’t want to discriminate against anyone - my point is that you can’t discriminate against people who hold all the power, so I won’t have much sympathy if someone trolls them on…

I think the whitewashing of code through LLMs is still unproven if it actually works for a reasonably complex project and also it’s still kind of legal Wild West - I think no one k…

I often hear this but I don’t really understand it. Not saying you need to explain it to me but what is the issue with AGPLv3 that turns those corporations away? To my non-lawyer e…

[flagged]

I don’t even see them using that phrase in the linked thread? What’s wrong with it anyway?

I’m maybe daft but AGPLv3 doesnt prevent $Evilcorp from using it, they just need to share any modifications or forks they made?
