Kay! Why people think remote job is less then a onsite job? Excuse me? I also work remotely. Okay I get it that onsite you have to go onsite through bus or blah blah , but your hours are not counting by a tracker and not getting SS every 2 min. My family doesn't understand that I have to be on my laptop for at least 7-8 hours.
Their reaction is :" why the food is not ready?"
" I am doing work"
"So what? You are home!"

Coding YouTubers existence is the reason the quality of new age software engineers is going down the hill.
Learn MERN stack,
PHP's dead,
Buy my course, it's 20% off
Learn just good enough that you can land a job
Learn how to prompt ChatGPT better
These shitty pieces of advice will never enable software engineers to truly understand the core concepts of what they're doing.
It's sad, really.8 -
Got to talking with someone in our company about AI generated code. I said we still have to audit the code, understand how it works, and ensure there isn't any nefarious libraries or code in what is produced. Like what we "should" be doing when we find libraries on the web. I explained how people will purposely create libraries that are spoofs of other libraries, but have malicious code embedded in them. It doesn't take much to imagine someone using a sketchy AI to push this kinda code.
How do you reasonably fight this if we start increasingly relying on generated code by AI? So I suggested we need an AI to review AI generated code. Then we need an AI to review the AI that reviews the AI generated code. Then...3 -
Using chatGPT. Seems about as cooperative and willing to do its job as I am.
Can you make me a word cloud in svg format?
"I'm sorry, I can't directly generate svg content, here are some other tools for that"
Can you write code?
"Yes, certainly, here's some python to generate a word cloud"
Can you write svd code?
"Yes, certainly, here's an example word cloud in svd format"
Can you make the words get bigger when I mouse over them?
"Yes, here's the code".
It's mastered "have you tried googling it?"2 -
Relentless, thankless routine of coming in every day and everybody hating the software team despite working our ass off to help everybody and fix mistakes that upper management has caused.1

moterfucking google stop wasting my time with your endless captcha bullshit.
You know exactly my fucking home IP, I don't have time to select your fucking bicycles, hydrants and buses.
And all you motherfuckers who use google captcha go fuck yourself because you are dumb as fuck7 -

I really really really need more RAM. 16GB is far from enough. Had to witness the kernel kill all of my Chrome extensions and most of my tabs and an IDE and still it wasn't able to run that container in the 8G RAM it just freed up...
I remember the days when 8G RAM was an overkill.
The times have changed. Now I'm looking into getting a Linux lappy w/ 96GB and still worried whether it'll suffice my needs....11 -

What does it take to give us some hope the spam around here can be controlled or removed by some power users?
Shit is getting out of control!
I'm pretty sure my ability to -- has been revoked again so that's no longer an option.
Reporting spam doesn't seem to do anything either 🤷♂️

Pro tip: if you wear a full face mask with a BiPap, do not start puking in your sleep.
Glad my body apparently decided to nope the hell out as soon as I started aspirating, but it was still a singularly unpleasant experience I hope never to repeat.
Thankful to still be alive.4
