Thing is, without art to train on Gen AI is useless. So it steals training data, from artists. Then it steals work from the same artists by using the stolen data.

Tell me, where will the new training data come from when artists are not publishing because they aren’t getting work?

If you use Gen AI, it is obvious and makes you look like a no-tallent hack, and a grifter.

I SMS my boss when I’m off sick.

ICQ was still online!?!?!

I stopped using that shit like 25 years ago. Thought died in the late 90’s

Yeah… I’m not gonna worry about it until maybe September next year.

Pirrrrrrrr = Pir^8

Fair.

No internet means the gullible masses will remain uninformed and vulnerable to manipulation.

The GOP wants a solid foundation of uneducated poor to exploit as the base workforce and voter base.

Cheap idiots to fuel their companies.

I need a documenter!

I have a head full of stuff that hasn’t had time to be documented, and being a single point of knowledge isn’t job security, it’s a major risk.

My code gets documented. But so much infrastructure is just held in my head as senior SysAdmin. Wherever possible I just have a ride-along “up-skilling” (works like a RAID mirror for my brain).

Why not both, M’lud?

Repressed self hatred.

The whole projecting thing that people like this do.

Bro couldn’t even clean his room in 3 days.

Every site in the early 2000s had a left nav menu

Motherfucker!

If I was given an AI interview I would burn that place to the ground. The fucking disrespect.

It’s a fucking arrow pointing from big to small. It has a big end that goes at the big number and a small end that goes at the small number.

It couldn’t be simpler.

People still can’t remember.

I mean I get having trouble with Trig… But this ?

People make mistakes, that’s why we automate things. If a system relies on a human not making mistakes it is doomed to fail eventually.

Saving manually should be a feature, but autoaave should be on by default these days, unless 30+ years of people losing work due to not hitting “save” manually has taught us nothing.

Crashes happen. Errors happen. Pets and children happen. Any major document editor should be able to auto save and replay a very long history of actions.

Improve the system, because you can’t improve people with a code patch.

As an individual with Sensory Processing Disorder, Autism, and ADHD, that works in IT…

This policy is incredibly ableist.

Glad I don’t live there.

“Just ask for directions”… have you ever tried asking a french person for help as a tourist? A lot of restraunts won’t even serve you, even if you’re speaking French.

A massive swathe of current gen devices don’t even support it.

It won’t be a month.

Microsoft announce changes much smaller than that 4 years out and still have to give extensions.

Have there been? Link them.

Because I call bullshit on that

I’ve always struggled with it. Often people let it degrade into a line with tiny bumps, and it becomes illegible.

Personally I am Autistic and have ADHD, so the fine motor control is hard to manage. I can’t write cursive neatly, but if I slow right down I can “draw” cursive.

Growing up undiagnosed when I did, has developed a hardy set of calluses across the knuckles from teachers hitting them with a ruler for bad pen grip or messy writing.

Most of those fuckers are dead or in diapers now.
