If you use Github or anything other than a repo hosted on your own metal what prevents Microsoft from just cloning the backend and stealing your code? Oh right, nothing. Extraordinarily hard to prove that too.

Copilot is by far the worst of them. We have been using both Copilot and Cursor for a year or so. The entire engineering org favors Cursor by over 60%. Myself included. I hear Claude Code is "better" but its terminal centric design is objectively worse than Cursor's IDE based design. At least...

Honestly the same reason I didn't vibe with Binding of Isaac. Despite liking everything else about it.

It's on hianime. That's where I watched the first episode.

Above my level. We were within costs though as I didn't hear too much bitching about that. Our critical TTP was to begin the cutover at like 10 months in and hypercare the remaining and we did fall into that. However some of the critical financial functions we needed are still not in place so it...

Some AI success for me at work this last week. These could have been done without AI but it would have taken a long ass time and not something I could have just done as a side project in a few spare hours. As my team is small these have been some thorns in my side for awhile that I knocked out...

I'll expand on this some in that it also heavily applies to softer SAAS services. Not just AWS and the like. My company used a SAAS product called Zuora for many years. Once we changed leadership they wanted that gone. As our C-Suite all originated from Salesforce executive leadership guess...

My company is relatively intelligent about this. Most of our customers exist in our on prem data centers. Our whales are on AWS simply because their needs are so far outside the parameters of the average customer.

To add to all of that companies have been selling off their metal for years. Land, hardware, facilities, and all.

Here's some degenerate trash for y'all. Does it Count if You Lose Your Innocence to an Android?

We already have some devs (all of the Indians of course lol) have like >250k lines of accepted code suggestions. Which is of course completely retarded and nonsensical in every way. Except to the non dev leadership who see that this guy must be ULTRA PRODUCTIVE. Never mind that a single feature...

Because Windsurf, Cursor, etc all track your use of AI in coding. It says stuff like @Noodleface: 7FEB-14FEB 2026 AI Generated Accepted/Rejected: 100/2000 Tabs Accepted/Rejected: 10/5000 Commits of Accepted/Rejected Code (and to what branches): 1/900 They then look at this and get on your...

I always hated that shit. I worked with a cool HR girl awhile back and she defaulted to that immediately. Girls need to be encouraged to study computer science! Its not fair that boys naturally gravitate to tinkering in the basement 12 hours a day for their entire childhood! Nobody stopped...

The costs of getting spitroasted by paying Claude Code (or whoever) for models and licensing and then paying AWS to operate the models is going to be absolutely insane.

Rejected that offer today. It stings but at the end of the day I am not yet ready to coast. At least not with what they're offering.

I haven't yet heard of any company opting to run open source AI on their own datacenter or AWS to save money paying Claude Code and the like. Today, right now, paying the freemium rate is LOTS cheaper. But that is a fuse on a bomb. One just long enough that leadership today doesn't see what's...

Well then you're back to what @TomServo just said. You need metal to run all that shit. Which firms are apparently dumping. So they're going to run it on AWS I guess and get spitroasted?

Not with the current pricing models for... everything. Microsoft are the Grandmaster dickheads of charging per seat, per instance. Now you have Excel Jockeys that can't Excel without also having Claude Code Excel plugins that also cost $$ ontop of that. So where do you save money other than...

Yeah they are currently ignoring the freemium AI prices. AI are saas products. Everyone gets the teaser rates right now but in another year or two these companies expect to close the trap. Would you look at that your entire staff can't even do day to day tasks without AI-Slopmaster 7.2 on...

I think beyond that it fundamentally ignores that the means to teach AI (human documentation) doesn't read in a truly step by step machine fashion. A manual for hardware specifics, database rules, and so on is written with the implicit understanding that the person reading it has some background...

Extremely unlikely. Mostly I'd be helping sell the greater organization on this or that and squeezing it in where I can, if at all. They had very specific interview questions about that, "how would you sell this to a large team of stakeholders?" Along with a small sample pitch of something and...

Welp I succeeded at getting a job offer... for a job I don't even want. It would legitimately be going back 10 years in terms of tech stack and I would be helping them convince the rest of the org to modernize. Meaning I would barely do shit other than be bored making POCs and shit. Would be a...

Damn, the meme about AIs prompting humans to do stuff is real!

Now that's one I am excited about.

Actually interesting in part. AI drastically fucks up the price per seat model of most platforms.

Then retards will just say hurr durr AI will replace all that too! Odds of AI replacing the upper tiers are pretty much zero. Just within the context of this discussion Principal SQL Server DBAs and shit still earn north of 200k a year, you wont be firing them to have AI do that job.

This is generally fine at the junior analyst level too. However this is also how you learn higher level database concepts like indexing or clustering, intelligent design patterns to ensure good performance, proper deduplication strategies. You wont be getting the AI to do any of that if you...

Do you have an actual gf now or is this that prostitute you monopolized a while back? Or did it just somehow turn into a regular relationship?

No no I support this. Blackjack is a superb retirement strategy! Maybe you can diversify into slot machines.

I lived in Texas for 14 years before I bought Cowboy Boots. I gave it an honest try and bought some ~$300 boots from the iconic Austin shop Allen boot on Congress. Those boots were so fucking uncomfortable I wore them out of spite thinking they'd break in and it would be fine. I gave up on them...

You are not a mystic, holy man, or a monk. You're just another white collar-ish retard like myself bro.

No. Because Christ is objectively superior to what you are proselytizing. Which is a variant of discard everything, embrace only what "mainstream" has cast aside, and look inward alone. Add in doing drugs now and again to achieve an enlightened state of mind. Along with reading Eastern...

Bro, you're the one who keeps bringing up Gnosticism. The Gnostics were good because they defied foundational Christianity, or something. The core of your argument here seems to be that organization is bad, therefore no organization is good. Along with introspection being good, but only if you...

That is not the argument here. The point is that you cannot be Christian and deny Christ's divinity. At that point you are not Christian.

I smell weakness. Use AI here to determine the Kernel errors you are getting and how to resolve them. If you failed to boot it is a Kernel Panic. I straight overwrote my Win 10 with Fedora and booted just fine. Didn't even have to strip out much to get things working.

I think you need to stop hanging on this idea that having teachers is bad and therefore the only good is to just figure it all out yourself. Additionally, your weird obsession with Gnosticism as being "good" completely ignores that the basis of their heresy was that they did not believe Christ...

Most Western people just lack context. Between Western nations there is very little financial friction. If you have regular people amounts of money and need to spend $50k on a major life purchase in another country. This is trivial and bitcoin is not necessary here nor would it make the...

Had an interview yesterday at a big corporate company. It just sounded sad to work there. They are effectively working in the stone age compared to what I've been doing everyday the past 5 years or so now. It would be literally stepping back into developing in 2010. Even for a sizable raise I...

This one of the more unfortunate casualties of AI retardation. If there was any one tool I knew of that would immensely benefit from AI integration. Its Figma. The tool itself is quite good as far as UX tools go. All you had to do was add in AI where you can have it alter stuff, add images, and...

This is the part that is hard for people to grasp. The only reason you have graybeard engineering sorcerers is because they spent decades learning it step by step. Just like any other thing. AI doesn't shortcut that because of general friction. Documentation is bad even when its better than...
