spent a several months working on their bug bounty program earlier this year while working full time and lost a lot of motivation after a duplicate combined with lower bounty award…

I suspect some people moved there years ago with the lower cost of living little money around the time/since of the four-hour workweek tim ferris movement . Some countries do not a…

I've been working in a non-tech role the past couple years hoping things would improve. Reading stuff like this, doesn't seem to be happening and makes it difficult to plan long te…

I really liked that game, it had a lot of strategy to it and a decent story. The multiplayer had a common key bug that made it hard on some maps. The atreides airdrones could fly a…

2023 had a lot of trouble finding a tech job and even local meetup devs told me of layoffs, got into restaurant work where I had worked several years ago in college, because they r…

Super interesting. At one point thought control flow guard + DEP/ASLR was suppose to prevent this stuff, guess it can't be prevented nearly completely by now. Sounds like this took…

Problem is lack of money catches up eventually. If you can't figure out some way to get it, and the longer without a job, the harder it is to get one. I think a lot of people strug…

The game is riddled with small bugs, like you can knock the phone off the rock in the first level bunker then the cut scene will have him picking it up. Having the trigens fight th…

I remember there is a bug with the hang glider that if you move down and up you gain momentum Back in the day far cry 1 was ultra realistic graphics. The game was fun to play, the …

Does it just need more time? Maybe spammers are unable to collect enough user data to target? What about telemarketers using a script with voice as virtual phone agents? It's been …

It's an interesting and legitimate question. But just as it takes business time to pick up on new technologies and adapt, it might take institutions as well. I've seen reddit posts…

It has a complex history but a lot of it started with the Prohibition historically, when alcohol sales ended some restaurants started allowing tips and it became more commonplace.

It always seemed to me the basics of a messenger app would be the easy part to be accomplished. It's the marketing that would be hard seeing as there are already existing solutions…

Looks like this was hacked together pretty quickly. This in CPU is exactly what needs optimized to run on more devices, if that's even possible.. I guess it will take hardware and …

Do LLMs have a way around the high end GPU requirements, or can CPU code potentially be much more optimized somehow? This is the only thing I can think of, not everyone will have t…

It can make mistakes and hallucinate. I've found GPT-4 to be slightly better than earlier versions. Ideally tell it one step at a time you need done, I've found that it struggles w…

It's such an obvious answer perhaps is why nobody has commented it. But depending on the use, you might try web speech API synthesis. For example a Windows user might see a Cortana…

Counter opinion: You're going to be one of many applicant because everyone else is embracing WFH trend too, so you are competing with everyone, especially with some much experience…

Get diet, sleep, and exercise right. If any of these three are off, energy is lower. I wish I could oversell this point a little more, there has been plenty of times over the years…

Interesting thoughts.. I'm just not sure if it would make a difference even if it was outlawed. The algorithms are out there, and it will only be a matter of time until more organi…

There is of course no guarantee of anything. But I know a lot of people are probably in similar situations. I would be grateful for any responses. Recession makes me feel like any …
