I'm surprised a bunch of tech professionals are totally fine with downloading random .dll's and patching executables. How do you know this is safe?

You’ll face unfairness with DEI / diversity quotas to get in to the college, and then if you graduate you’ll face unfairness by having your job outsourced to AI or H1B, but yeah ch…

> All of them have bad microphones (worse than wired ear pods) Yeah this is why people just buy AirPods Max.

They just work. The integrated mic is clear and easy to use for daily standups. They connect to my work and personal laptop in a few seconds every time - I’m never left panicking r…

Most men can’t even get a date anymore, but we’re not allowed to talk about the reasons why.

Yep, the only reason their pay is high is artificial barriers to entry.

If you have to be “top talent” to survive it’s not a good field to get into anymore.

It’s matter of incentives. Everyone knows the value of college is in the piece of paper they give you at the end, the things they teach you are not super helpful in real world. So …

It costs $2000? Why?

Most are zero sugar

Really? Where do you see that?

Yeah that sounds like a good idea

Not all dimensions. VSCode’s Remote SSH is better and UI is better. To me that’s worth the trade offs.

People that say this are completely out of touch. You know there are VSCode extensions for Java (made by Oracle and Redhat themselves), right? Once you install that you get Intelli…

+1, the Remote SSH is horrible. Takes forever to connect and is extremely laggy once you have connected. Feels like they’re practically streaming video of the UI back to you instea…

Austin is down 20%. Doesn’t make sense to me. I keep hearing “they overbuilt” - so what, none of the builders saw this coming either?

How is this legal? I thought you could not use streamed music commercially? If you’re a DJ making money on a gig you’d be violating that law.

Good way to have your knowledge fed into an LLM.
