Sounds like the kind of work my analyst does. I guess he's technically part of the development team, so sure??? Our 3 client mediators are totally taking over. Also pretty sure we're the only IT department that even has such a thing. The only other person in our IT branch to be mainly doing calls and such is the top head of IT, every other IT boss still has a lot of technical work around their necks. So at least at my job "close to 100%" is an absolute farcry.

It's a very similar story at my girlfriend's work place. Except they don't even have analysts.

Honestly, I have trouble imagining such a world. Hmmm... The more I think about it, the more it just kinda sounds like high school... Sends shivers down my spine.

As a developer I have to say OH hell nah. If I had to compare the issue to something more layman, I'd compare it to tesla's self driving. If I have to watch it the entire time it does its thing because there's an almost certain chance it'll mess something up CATASTROPHICALLY due to the fact that it literally lacks the ability to understand, than I might as well just do it my self. It rarely saves time and only in dumb cases, that should have been automated in other ways a long time ago.

Not saying it's not a very handy tool occasionally, just that it can't come up with solutions to problems on its own, which is like 75% of my work. And it can't do this due to a fundamental limitation in how learning models work, no amount of training will fix this.

If jobs consisted of only attending video calls and wiring emails, the world would be a very different place.

I hate how the US has sexualized every random word or sentence. I'm here telling my American friend how funny it is that German's call smart phones a "handy", like "haha silly random word that makes sense tho haha :)", but no, ma American bud breaks down laughing imagining German's giving each other hand jobs.

Also the constant stopping during any sentence to go "oh, I know what YOU'RE thinking, get your mind out of the gutter!". No, I don't, and now I have the privilege of trying to remember every single word that wa just said and trying to see what inside there could possibly be a penis. This from of "joke" never fails to annoy the shit out of me. Like please can we just continue, or do you really have to recite this copy pasta while I stare like an absolute dunce at you?

Wish the alternatives weren't so expensive at restaurants and the such. Honestly don't get it, whenever I cook my self, the meat is always the most expensive part, so why is vegetarian or god forbid vegan food so expensive at restaurants? Stuff like soi meat strips are dirt cheap, not to mention will likely never spoil in storage. I know like one restaurant that actually serves the meatless food cheaper, but that one generally strives to be as mass affordable as possible.

Even a broken clock is correct once a day.

Imagine building your war strategy around the fact that an arbitrary limitation by your enemy won't change if exploited to all hell.

Americans aren't consistent either. 2 liter and similar bottles (and it's not even the same bottle, like they aren't reusing molds or anything, it's just an American 2 liter bottle). Sharp edges and points like on mechanical pencils are in millimeters. So are many nuts and bolts. Stuff like electricity and power are measured in metric units. Generally electronics/computer parts are in metric, the main exception that comes to mind is screen size, which even the rest of the world does in inches (LIKE WTF!?!).

There's plenty of examples of metric units in the daily life of an American.

Competitive gay! The ultimate gay-off!

Ok, but the probability of multiple people reaching the highest point a person will ever reach is not 0.

Just because we recorded one tallest man, doesn't mean there was never and won't ever be one that's just as tall. Like sure, depending on our exact metric of gayness, there may very well only be one gayest person, but there could also be a 100, a 1000 or even more gayest people.

The meme saying there's a gayest person, kinda implies this. Of course it's actually nonsense in real life, all I'm trying to say is that a spectrum by definition doesn't exclude the possibility of 2 entities being on the most extreme end (doesn't really matter if we have more dimensions or just one representing gayness, all can be maxed out). If one person can someone how obtain the highest amount of gayness physically possible, how does that stop someone else from doing the same?

The spectrum being multidimensional doesn't stop us from maxing out every metric of what's physically possible.

I mean it has to be a limit, a person can only be so gay. Like even if we define a spectrum as far and wide as we like. Let's say height for example. That's an infinite scale, but a human will never be a light year in height, it's just not physically possible. And once there's one human to reach the highest physical limit, what's stopping someone else from also reaching that point?

Comment sections like this make me feel like I'm in a room full of crazy people, and or I eventually start to question my own sanity.

I mean sure, a spectrum is defined by at least 2 most extreme points (depending on the amount of dimensions). But like, what's stopping us form mapping two or more people to either extreme? Why can't 2 people be equally most gay or equally least gay?

I just think of division as how many times the right expression fits inside the left expression. 0.5 fits into 0.25 only 0.5 aka 1/2 times, because only half of it fits.

I'm still surprised how little attention Nobara gets when it comes to this. It's such a wonderful just works out of the box distro.

I used to actively avoid women out of fear of making them uncomfortable (still do occasionally, when I have a particularly shitty day), I mean like full on 0 eye contact, lotsa distance and god forbid speaking. Being tolled I'm too fucking stupid to understand female issues and tolled that I have it so easy because I can be a literal pig without getting judged did a number on my brain. I mean I get it, women have it much harder, but being completely pushed aside and forced to associate with literal trash, all my efforts made worthless just because women have to put in much more effort, while I only chose to do a bit more. It hurts. When a girl is freaked out and starts running, because I'm taking a similar route to her's (because I just happened to live in the same direction), I understand her reaction, but it doesn't change the fact that it makes me wish I didn't exist, if my fucking existence is a problem in it self. It's shit like this that makes me wish I was at least trans or something, not born a fucking bogeyman that hurts people by breathing the same air as them.

You mean the 2 ProgramData folders? Altho who the hell puts config stuff there? Anyways, the 2 official settings apps, the 3 AppData folders and then the registry for every little thing Microsoft doesn't want you to edit for whatever reason? And then the countless 3rd party config apps for every device aiming to make this process easier? Yea I totally don't Google where to toggle stuff on windows as step #1, noo... And W11 just has a slightly better 2nd official settings app, so sadly not too different.

Also who the hell puts config stuff on Linux into /local or /share? It was always in ~/.config (personal) or /etc (system wide) from my experience.
