Apologies to everyone I pressed into quitting Messenger to switch to WA in the 10s. Hopefully I'm not repeating the same error in the 20s, but with WA->Signal. 😞

Could also mean being too loud.

Looks reasonable, but feels like giving up. I'm not ready to give up on cupboards.

We are same. I sometimes use comments as kind of tags, like

 python

    
xinput --disable $(xinput --list | grep -i touchpad | grep 'id=[0-9]\+' -o | cut -d= -f2)  # Disable synaptic touchpad trackpad pointer

  

or

 python

    
python3 -c 'from ctypes import *; X11 = cdll.LoadLibrary("libX11.so.6"); X11.XOpenDisplay.restype = POINTER(c_ubyte); display = X11.XOpenDisplay(None); X11.XkbLockModifiers(display, c_uint(0x0100), c_uint(2), c_uint(0)); X11.XCloseDisplay(display)' # swap caps CAPS CAPSLOCK

  

or sometimes I'll add # works at the end of a long string of attempts (usually involving dialing into a regexp), like

 python

    
xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Eow '\d'
xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Eow '(\d)'
xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -ow '(\d)'
xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -o '(\d)'

I feel like attacking civilians also helps Israel's propaganda while not hurting it's capacity to continue escalating.

Yeah it's just meaningless factoids to me now.

And during

Yeah there are certainly logistical comparisons that could be made, but like c'mon... actually being completely and legally owned would suck so so so so much worse. Just another reminder of what's at stake if we don't put up a fight.

Certainly not smart ones. I've heard nothing actually good about these cars, except that they helped popularise electric cars

Really, this is what you want to focus the last of your political power on?

It's larger than 1, which is the number of people of people the article is holding up as some kind of Cassandra.

These people wouldn't know empathy if it slapped someone else across the face

Brilliantly put

Hoping no real people were injured.

Legendary.

Welcome back, and I agree!

That's smart

Hahaha I think our alts all got some attention last week. I switched to a more local one rather than interest based, so it was actually cool seeing more geographically relevant posts.

It's given me more appreciation for the other instances of lemmy overall.

Still, so great to be back on my main!!!!

What is it meant to be?

My theory is that it offers a simple scapegoat …

That's my intuition too. In my experience, adopting AI mostly has lead to marginally faster MVPs, balooning sloc in PRs, and an explosion of wildly unqualified people applying for tech roles and sometimes even getting them.

It's a better kind of nihilistic business story to say that LLMs have been so disruptive, that people are getting fired, rather than investors are scared and greedy and are just being guided around by vibes and their amygdalae right now.

What you're doing is the secret sauce already, you're just missing luck. Obviously take whatever job you need to pay rent in the meantime, but if you keep it up then I think you'll get something eventually.

It is the worst time in all of history to be a software developer looking for work, so don't internalise it.
