Reminds me of when I did group “men” therapy and the guy running it recommended we all read Jordan Peterson.
I don’t think he had any ill-intent, but I was like – eww … I stopped attending and hope they all stuck to that one book and only that.
I knew some bad devs that didn’t have CS degrees. They joined because they thought the money would be good and the companies wanted to reduce labour costs.
It’s really hard to explain to someone what loops are that doesn’t get it.
However some of the “worst” devs that I’ve worked with aren’t incompetent coders. They’re good “coders” that are fucking shit to work with. They refuse to fix their own bugs, blame you for their mistakes, ignore your feedback and management fucking loves them and gives them carte blanche. I’m talking over ten years ago but we implemented some cache system who refused to publish their docs online to “strengthen” relationships with their customers. Anyways, the dude implements it, doesn’t document anything (much like the product itself). Days past after implementation and I see what looks like a cache bug and I say, “Sergii, can we look at this together?” His reply? “No, I’m sick of looking at it” … I go to the manager and he says, “yeah I get what he means, I’d not wanna looks at it either” … great.

Yup! That’s what happened when I moved! Better luck next time indeed …
I spent a shitload on buying TV shows and movies on Google. Then I moved back to Canada from the UK and my library is fucked (lost some movies and shows). Google also doesn’t let me play it on 1080P or 4K on my browsers despite paying for it. They said they understand the pain and whatever they did didn’t work.
Yeah I had enough of this shit.

Yeah, for some reason there’s some real moral outrage required specifically for pizzacake. It’s not enough to dislike her comic but it seems like they need to vice signal as well.
Not a desert but Vancouver is perfect for the screen! https://youtu.be/ojm74VGsZBU (Every Frame A Painting - Vancouver Never Plays Itself)
lol, yeah how could I have forgotten the Claude ads already, good point
I genuinely don’t think Google wants to do this. I think they’re doing it because they’re forced to by the other LLM competitors and are looking for competitive edges.
I think they would prefer to route you to those websites where they can sell you ads.
Ed Byrne has a whole bit about it: https://youtu.be/nT1TVSTkAXg
ITS LIKE FREE WEEEEEED! WHEN I’M ALREADY BAKED!
Agreed. I’m British and became a Canadian Citizen when I was 9 and moved back and forth a lot between the two countries.
When I moved back to the UK when I was 25 – I actually had to get used to hearing and saying “maths”. I remember going to school in Sheffield when I was 14-15 and I must have heard it there but it still shocked me as an adult.

It’s more of a British phrase although Numberphile did a deep dive on the root of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbZCECvoaTA.
Driven by Nazis.
Unprepared for China.
Hated by Canadians.
Ugly on the inside.
Riddled with debt.
No one’s really buying it.
