    My feeds are full of ads by gaming pc makers now renting out gaming pcs for a monthly fee. NZXT calls it a lease with a 2 year refresh.

    Of course I think. I have 20 years of coding experience and knowledge of the codebase and business. That’s why I’m keenly aware of how strange the process is. What I’d like to know…

    I feel like it’s changing my brain. A colleague uses AI to make some code change and submits a PR. I use AI to evaluate the PR. It’s like AIs talking to each other with humans serv…

    I have an old kindle keyboard I keep around for nostalgia that still works. I’m guessing this will be affected. Hoping I can still add books via usb

    I broke my ankle and have multiple chats related to medicine, physical therapy, pain management, lawyer questions, how to handle messaging to boss and HR

    They have vending machines with hot pizza! I’d be in big trouble there.
