And for the ultimate twist: the "both version" thing works for every single country! Damn! Nobody saw that coming!

What are the other metrics? What metrics did you use to make your statement? Dude, don't play the "moving the goal posts" game please, this is not X/Twitter. The guy is creaming hi…

"junior engineers are more likely to understand and use AI tools, and quickly become more performant than their senior engineers asking questions on stack overflow" Anything to bac…

For now that won't work, based on my experience with LLMs, you still need a very senior engineer to prompt and review what was produced by the agent. A junior wouldn't have the exp…

The author is beaming about Mexico where the obesity rate is on par with the US. The US rank 9th in terms of tertiary education in the world, so no, not "average'. And even average…

Completely agree. I've lived - as in truly "lived", having a job, staying at least a full year, and having to do "real life things" - in 3 different countries before coming to the …

What nonsense. Of course, everything always looks so great when you're on vacation. Living somewhere full time and visiting for a few weeks is not the same. There are plenty of kin…

I'm sorry, but this is an incredibly silly comment. The "shit show" was systemic at the strategic level. Of course, people who went to see a game had a good time, the "shit show" i…

I've just accepted the fact that every tech company is just a dumpster fire.

That is incorrect. When you start a new job you have a few weeks to enroll. However, you sometimes have to wait for the plan to begin coverage. Something like "after 30 days of emp…

It may just be a me thing, but when discussing a job offer I always ask for details about the health insurance. I want to see the premiums, what is covered, the networks, etc. All …

> We can decide to just... you know... do things. OK, this is Twitter-level conversation here, not interested. But hey, stay positive, more power to you.

Oh! Damn! Stupid me! "We have to collectively decide this", when is the meeting to vote on that again? When is the last time we all decided something collectively? WTF does the pan…

There is no lack of imagination here, there is realism. You think you display "imagination" by just regurgitating all the tired tropes of old science fiction? Oh wow! Robots to cle…

I admire the naivety. I'm sure CS grads are delighted...

Humans just want to be able to work and feed their families. Notice how this is something that is never addressed for example in Asimov's writings where robots do everything. How d…

If anything one wants to make is now possible to make, how is anyone supposed to make a living? Can I make food with LLMs? Can I build a house and make clothes? This is stupid. No …

I noticed the same thing. Another thing that seems to have disappear: lunch and learn focusing on the tech stack. And I mean specifically about "how to do this in <programming lang…

SO's downfall started way before AI. A decade or so ago it was always full of interesting questions, people were giving detailed answers, there was sometimes some debate in the ans…

The logo for the Brazilian Institute of Oriental Studies is a masterpiece :-)

A process is significantly more expensive than a thread on a Linux system. The main cost is memory. Processes own their memory which forces the system to duplicate resources, as op…

There are studies explaining the appeal of the "chore simulators". You should look them up because I may not do them justice, but in a nutshell it's basically that they are very sa…

"I could enjoy", "How it'd entertain me" - have you even tried a few?

> You don't magically get language skills by living in the country. You still have to put in the time and effort. Did I say otherwise? How do you live 6 years in a country without …

How do you live 6 years in a country without reaching B1?
