I didn't chime in on your previous scenario because my assumption was simply that those men were having typical middle aged commitment issues. Which is a different kind of childish. I understand what you are saying but I was responding to what, apparently, was a rhetorical bait question from...

Because she's dragging other people into her miserable little world and then making idiotic excuses for what are essentially childish temper tantrums at 75 goddamn years old. You think the 60+ years old man she rug pulled like that is happy she wasted several of his still good twilight years...

I thought I read pretty fast but you guys are smoking this book. I'm only on page ~350

This is the most enticing part of it. I can honestly say I'd do a job I found interesting and satisfying for like $60k/yr and not even blink despite it being a fairly low salary (at least where I currently live).

There is typically A LOT of variance in how these things can/are installed depending on codes, the building itself, etc. It's one of those things where like 95% of the time its probably no trouble at all. But that 5%... I might be overthinking it but that's my middle aged man brain at work.

It's such an enticing notion. I never really watched YouTube until I had so much free time on my hands and now I find myself watching a TON of DIY channels. The biggest issue for me with a career change like this is... I'm 43 now and I don't think I want to START contorting my body in tight...

I think he means invest on our own without needing to go through a broker/financial adviser. Though E-Trade is a lot older than I thought it was, launched in 1992.

They aren't using availability groups?

Well that looks terrible.

Redundancy between data centers is a backup, very literally... did you mean to phrase this another way?

Congratulating and encouraging people to take it for diabetes but admonishing people for taking it for weight loss is some next level mental gymnastics (referring to the overall dialogue involving Ozempic, not the post above mine). I love weight loss discussions. People can never help becoming...

Fuckin Paul Rudd man. Guy looks like he's only aged about 5 years since Wet Hot American Summer.

This is true, but how many of those medications are being taken by as many people as these GLP-1s? These things are being taken by probably more people than any precription medication ever, so known side effects should get hammered out "somewhat" quickly. Claude says this: Ever used (lifetime)...

This was it, pretty sure he actually was (is?) a GGG employee:

Ozempic has been FDA approved since 2017 FWIW. I know it seems like a new drug because its newer part of the cultural zeitgeist but its been around and in use by diabetics for a while.

IT hiring probably has been going up. Just not for Americans.

Every company uses AI. What I am referring to is companies then turning around and selling their products/services as AI simply because their employees leverage AI to do their normal tasks.

Cybersecurity professionals having that hard a time is more telling than us "regular" devs. There are a lot more rules and regulations that prevent foreigners from having access to lots of different types of data and systems. Everything is fucked. Can't wait for the next jobs report to make it...

You are taking an unofficial version of the drug from a drug compounder, she is taking the official version from Eli Lilly. What you are doing COULD be dangerous because you don't quite know exactly what they are doing. That being said lots of people are doing what you are doing precisely...

INOD ripping up again today. I'm guessing we will continue seeing this in the AI space until OpenAI and Anthropic have their IPO's later this year, money funnels into those, and the momentum either continues for another year or two, or the private/spv money hits the eject button for immediate...

There is a massive difference between completing a single t15/t16 and completing the entire atlas. I am not the one wrong here. There are 100+ maps in the atlas and 130+ points on the tree. Even I almost never complete the atlas despite farming multiple hundreds of divs for builds and sometimes...

Why are you talking about completing the atlas now? You stated 1% of players complete a single t15/16 map in poe2

A LOT more people complete these things in PoE1, because the Atlas and mapping systems are actually interesting and fun to engage with. Unlike PoE2

Its interesting that keto is still so misunderstood. Seems like people still confuse proper ketogenic regimens with things like the Carnivore diet. You eat carbs on ketogenic diets. You just adjust exactly how much based on your activity levels so you burn through the glycogen and remain in...

AI isn't "in the cloud". A "copilot pc" is still connected to the internet. This all seems like marketing and branding shenanigans.

AWS isn't AI though, and that's where the biggest disconnect is for many people who think AI is driving record profits. Also.... local AI? AI hardware?

Innodata is killing it for me today. I bought 2k shares last night before close at ~$46 because it looked like they were going to have strong earnings. They killed earnings.

There are very few companies "dipping their toes" in actual AI. What you're hearing, is companies lying about being AI companies and using nebulous terminology to package old fashioned software and services as "AI". The industry is full of snake oil.

Is this the sequel to "I have a very particular set of skills"?

They fucked up the core gameplay loop too much at first and that REALLY needs to be fixed unfortunately. But my god are they dragging their feet on admitting it and PROPERLY fixing it. They're being stubborn which is making it take forever and the other stuff like the missing classes and...

How do you know I'm an uncle?!??!

Bunch of fucking psychos in this thread.... @Lightning Lord Rule might want to put some of these nutjobs on a watch list.

Listen, Nirgon was the only person keeping this thread active. If we move this discussion its lights out. He already killed his FIL, must we let him kill this thread as well?

You joke but before I left my job one of the developer teams was using Copilot to "fix bugs" by having it find and suppress exceptions.

Wait... what? He had a wife and kids?! This is shocking.

Token usage isn't going to be a big deal. It's going to be the ENTIRE deal. Claude cowork isn't bad with token usage. Claude Code is an atrocity with token usage. That being said I honestly feel that companies should only let very senior engineers have access to claude code subscriptions and it...

AI is making companies, and especially executives and boards, value experience less and less. They legitimately believe experience is superfluous in a world full of AI.

I watched Grimm then went to start Supernatural based on recommendations. I liked Grimm, couldn't get through the first season of Supernatural. It was just too "try hard" while also being goofy.

This season of Wistoria so far seems like it was meant to be a 1 hour standalone movie but they decided to just make it the first 4 episodes of this season instead?

I kind of liked ToTA as an alternate gameplay mode for that league. I have a feeling they are going to remove all the chill/good parts of it, and ramp up the "This fucking sucks" parts of it as is PoE2 tradition at this point
