We have an Engineering Week going on. It's kind of neat seeing all of the shit we're paying for showcased (by poo contractors of course!). The current bae is the action driven AI Agent that is more personalized to your need. The next bae is the Model Context Protocol which is currently being...

Did they dumb shit down like they did in Skyrim here though? I mean it is "remastered."

And you played as a Dragonborn in BG3. I'm detecting a pattern here you degen.

I'll play this I guess. Sounds like it could be a chill visit back to 2006.

I gotta replay sekiro sometime. High Monk and the Mortal Blade trivialize a lot. But god damn are they satisfying.

It's hard to go back to click to move after POE2 WASD man.

I like the world building. The Time Loop has happened before. To such an extent that when someone is "blessed" with it they have a whole faith and legal system around dealing with it. Simply that the blessed Prophet is above all law and all must serve them on their holy mission. Which is...

I loved using the single Nagakiba. Such an amazing weapon.

The vultures out there make me sick. When my father died he had a large amount of commercial fishing equipment he had accumulated over the years. The day after he died some people he knew broke into the locked shop on his property and stole all of it. Some ~$80k in commercial crab pots and...

Okay about a month down the Linux path. I have had no major issues. I can play new games like Last Epoch fine. Very graphic intensive ones like Monster Hunter need some updates for compatibility. Generally the steam Proton compatibility package is good for most everything. After a career on the...

Because you're severely mentally ill bro.

As a senior developer. Most of my time developing is not actually writing the code. It's researching, understanding, validating requirements, etc. None of which AI helps you with really. Unless you want to bullshit stuff. When I do use AI to generate code, it does make stuff. But you have to...

Speaking of our Engineering leaders just posted us this to read: https://sourcegraph.com/blog/revenge-of-the-junior-developer This is a bit stupid on our leaders part IMO. I can 100% crank out some dirty solution for something that meets minimum requirements the same day. The trouble is all...

1. SELECT ORDER_ID, ORDER_NAME, SUM(AMOUNT) AS TOTAL_ORDER FROM ORDER O JOIN ORDER_ITEM OI ON O.ORDER_ID = OI.ORDER_ID GROUP BY 1,2 2. filtered_df = df[df['region'].isin(['East', 'West'])] result = (filtered_df.groupby('rep', as_index=False)['sales'].sum().rename(columns={'sales': 'total_sales'}:emoji_nose:

For sure. It's just the bar man. For every good security dude there's a dozen complete retards who I wouldn't want on the help desk and I have no idea why they have a job. Tons of idiots go right into security though because they heard it pays well. Which it does. Entry level security pays...

For the non retards in cyber security who knows what's up a lot of the work appears to be policing lazy developers. I am also guilty of this at times but real dumbass shit like your internal API having a full admin access I AM in AWS is painfully common. Scoped roles and access makes dev teams...

If the rank and file security people were more than "durrrr I press button on pen test software I don't understand. If it gives me red light I tell u to fix it" I'd actually try and respect them.

How do you deal with the retards beneath you?

Cybersecurity jobs pay pretty well IMO. Even the junior ones. As far as the IT field goes there is no other discipline, if you will, full of more incompetent retards though. I like our security architect but I avoid talking to anyone else. It stuns me how stupid they are.

Great find nerd. Much appreciated! I have to just really ignore the lesbian bullshit.

While Ziz is accurate most of the time I can't stand his queerboy voice. Rue though lol. Love it.

If you look at year old code you wrote and aren't disgusted with yourself you've stopped learning. Even if clunker code you wrote 5+ years ago is still running critical operations like some of mine does. I just ain't got time to update it and it keeps chugging along but I hate it.

I am going to quit my second gig. I've decided it. The moment I pay off my other house in a few months I'm out. Not worth dealing with these people and management who thinks everything is a crisis and I should work all night on the drop of a hat over nothing. Even if the money is a boon of course.

XML payloads. Yuck. JSON isn't perfect but at least it's really simple.

The principle isn't real complicated. It reduces data flows to JSON payloads and the idea is that it's constantly sending them. For the Healthcare use case, for example, its taking Claim data for a client and simply processing that data as it comes. Rather than in massive batch jobs with many...

The reason why I have the above project and absolutely everything is in Kafka now is explicitly due to this. We just implemented Kafka with absolutely no guidelines so its its own hell.

I bought Dr. Squatch because it sounded cool and I liked the ingredients. Not expensive either. Already feels better than the Old Spice. Especially in my hair. I probably should have done this years ago. For those of you who are irritated by most store bought deodorants I moved to Crystal salt...

For my chosen area of data engineering I have only partially felt this. I have a lot of exposure to the older architecture and a lot of the new. My team is mostly old people who spent the 80s and 90s working on enterprise Oracle/MS database solutions and stuff. There is an absolute fuckton of...

Had a Linux moment today. The bluetooth service went kaput and I couldn't restart it. It was just "dead." After previously working. I had updated something so I dicked around with some settings but it wouldn't start on boot due to some missing conditions. The actual solution? Something to do...

We've been hashing out the director's fever dream the past week. Dude was getting frustrated when I explained to him that his desire to have the output in source control is a significant hurdle. Because executing some SQL DML or something is one thing. If you want it also source controlled it...

Not sure where to put this. I usually just buy whatever body wash the supermarket sells. Old Spice Fiji was fine as its readily available, affordable, and smells good. However, I was out of soap and ended up unpacking some old boxes from when I moved a few years ago. In that box was a 4 year...

@Hateyou I remember seeing this forever ago but I am excited that this is coming out. It looks like a clever use of AI for simulated players or whatever its doing. But if the simulated players don't call me a retard faggot, trade scam me, kick me out of the group for letting the tank die, or...

Same guy as before and this tells you a lot even though it wasn't intentional. This guy has read the code styling guide for example and fed it to the AI to write code. But he's complaining that it's not following the styling guide. There a a lot more people out there doing this who don't even...

AI is absolutely great if you know what you want and also know the pitfalls of doing it various ways other than the way you know you need to. So you can just have AI deal with the tedious aspects of physically writing and formatting it. But you need to proofread everything it does because it...

IMO the use of AI solutions is going to exacerbate problems. We are at the stage where companies (mine included) want AIs to actually perform actions. Take network engineering for example. The whole idea here is you have nerds piece together what your infrastructure is doing at any given time...

Remember, here is an actual Japanese rendition of the Portuguese bringing over Yasuke, future Samurai Lord of Japan. Painted centuries ago. Hint: He's the one holding the umbrella.

This hits deep.

I like that they could clearly draw the dear like the other characters so it looks nice... they just don't.
