This is why the tradeification of engineering should be viewed with skepticism. An engineering degree should give you a strong technical background in computing, physics, math, and software without over-specializing. You are meant to learn specific tradecraft on the job.
Russia was caught running a bunch of side channel and phishing attacks using malicious QR codes. Presumably signal could help track these patterns in terms of time and place, to help isolate where espionage activity was occuring.
I tend to agree - for whatever reason tech heavy internet communities tend to be filled with Luddites.
My organization has found LLMs really useful for interdisciplinary collaboration. Subject matter experts can generate and check code examples, while software engineers can ask questions about what the code is meant to be doing. It really lowers the friction in these kinds of interactions
The shit that pisses me off is the 4 week refill time because over the span of several months the refill date and appointment date get out of sync. Just make it so you can't fill more than three times in 90 days or whatever and it would accomplish the exact same shit but with way more flexibility.
This shit is just getting too surreal. Democrats were literally not allowed to quote actual economic progress without being called "out of touch" but Trump can literally say "fuck you shut up."
The entire narrative that the US doesn't have a manufacturing industry or blue collar work is largely a myth anyway. The US has a $2.4T manufacturing sector, which is larger than the entire GDP of Canada. There are also plenty of blue collar jobs in the trades.
This "problem" never gets solved because there is no problem. But the media of course continues to help Republicans gaslight us about it.
