  • You're splitting hairs here I think it's fair to make the statement that tech industry workers perform professional tech work. I mean it's cool that you learned to bake but what makes you think this means you know what the skill requirements are for tech workers and how well chatgpt can cover for gaps in those skills? Your dismissive 'meh' says to me 'yea but I learned how to bake with chatgpt so I disagree with this statement'.

  • Professional tech work at home is professional tech work. I think to anyone who actually have careers in technology wouldn't see a distinction here. Programming is not the same as systems architecture, systems management etc. Programming is simply one of the tools you use as a software engineer. I do not think it's too broad to be meaningless and I think comparing learning to bake to software engineering is reductive and shows a lack of understanding about the requirements of the field.

  • If stability and reliability are paramount to you, you might consider getting the older version. At this point the hardware has been well tested and I feel like you might be beta testing less on a gen 1 vs a gen 2. That being said my personal experience is that I've never felt like a beta tester for valve and I'm sure you'll be happy with either. Cheers!

  • Yea I honestly can't believe people who think of themselves as decent would delight like this in the suffering of others? You realize voicing opinions like this takes you right out of the 'right side of the argument' and outs you as a pretty much an awful person? Do better, people.

  • Yea you don't need to have a family of 10 to make use of Costco. You and your roomies can definitely save some money by pooling and getting some stuff together at Costco. You just learn what you can actually use and what doesn't make sense for your household and buy the stuff you need less of somewhere else. I highly recommend it; learning to shop at Costco has helped me and my partner eat better, cook more, and spend less money.

  • Nah this isn't the way, friend. Instead of adding a bunch of useless anys all over the place, start typing in one part of the application and exclude the rest using a path pattern. Or simply allow .js and only change the extension for files you've typed. Doing this is just wasting time and creating false assurances of type safety.
    It's not that hard to define correct, meaningful types. Often vscode already has implicitly determined them for you; just mouseover the variable.

  • Eh not really if you're actually using mesh networked smart home devices that run on zigbee/thread/wave/matter or whatever you're using some kind of controller with one of those radios in it. Using your phone as the only controller basically means you'd only be able to control/talk to those devices when your phone is on and at home, so forget any kind of automations if you're not around. If you already have a controller, it's most certainly networked so having a matter radio in your phone is basically pointless.

  • I don't disagree but having been on both sides of the token (I've rented a LOT of properties more than I care to count) I can tell you that homeowners nowadays are doing a lot of work themselves, maybe even work that they shouldn't be doing themselves. There can be some financially devestating costs to home ownership that people try to maliciously hide from you during inspection unless you're buying a house brand new. My point being that I'd imagine that at least partially factors into all of this and I'd guess that people renting out houses are more likely to simply 'hire someone to get it done' or have a handyman on speedial. Again, clarifying 'good' landlords. I wouldn't saying most are good, about 20% maybe in my experience, but still I do think there are reasonable folk that do a majority of their work servicing rental properties frankly I'd rather buy houses worked on by people like that as opposed to unqualified homeowners neglecting proper upkeep and creating time bombs for people trying to enter the market later on.
