  • Eh, no?

    I still haven’t seen AI produce anything remotely reliable within a single function, let alone put multiple functions together, let alone build something with multiple classes, let alone something actually useful, let alone a big project

    Yeah, AI got useful as a rubber Ducky. I use it for getting a sense of possible directions, maybe a fresh idea I hadn’t considered sometimes. It saves me from opening up DDG and Ctrl-clicking the first ten results to check all the pages, sometimes.

    But the AI coder inside my IDE still gets code confidently wrong about 70% of the time, and we’re talking single lines here and the mistakes are fundamental, like variables that haven’t been initialized.

    Having said that, I’m sure that someday someone will.come up with an AI that can do real development and that day it’ll be able to develop itself and that day we’ll all be properly fucked because that will really quickly delve into something we can’t control and something more intelligent than all of us.

    I’m sure some tech bros can’t wait for that to happen and I honestly believe we need to rid the world of these idiots before they doom and destroy us all.





  • Doesn’t matter what I think, this will not happen, period

    Remember: this is a musk project, and musk projects always end up with massive investments, mega promises for years that it definitely definitely this time will be done next year and absolutely zero results

    The few times that there are results, it’s the fucking hilarious cyber truck

    There will be no datacenters in space and anyone who at this point gives their money freely to Elmo deserve what they will get: absofuckinglutely nothing


  • It all comes down to personal higiene.

    I’ve been married a couple of times and typically I would always smell when someone was on their period. I regularly smell it at work as well.

    My current wife? Not a single smell, ever. No idea what she would smell like of it’s a bad smell.m, she always smells awesome like herself.

    Then again, she’s latina and as such really good at that sort of thing.

    Just was yourself regularly, not too much, use mild soaps, and figure out what works for your body. Soaps (and even perfumes) work differently on different bodies, so even a perfume may work well on someone but not on you. You gotta trial and error a bit there. Don’t use too much perfumes either.

    My wife rarely uses perfumes, she doesn’t need it






  • Oooohh boy.

    So let me start by saying: I fucking hate bill gates with a vengance. And if you do so too, good for you. I’ve been hating him for at least a good 30+ years, hating bill gates is not a new thing.

    Having said that:

    I’m not much into conspiracy theories, it doesn’t matter where they come from or who they’re directed at.

    Take this jewel, for example:

    advocating for the systematic poisoning of watersheds with pesticides under false arguments

    Now I’m assuming you’re referencing apeel here?

    I mean, I’m sure apeel may or might have issues but you sell it like gates is a mustache twirling evil genius who is bent on poisoning the world. I’m sure its slightly more nuanced than that, and I’m sure you are very nuanced too.

    I just read about a Melinda gates interview this morning where she talked about “Bill’s visits to epstein island had been a very painful moment in their marriage” which would insinuate he diddled kids and she knew. True? I don’t know I still need to find more info and put it on the list, because I have a long list of “things I’ve heard” that I need to verify. I just verified yours as “misleading”

    My point is: If you want to shit on gates, go ahead, he is a horrible person, he deserves to burn in hell, but lets not make shit up about him, its not helpful not necesarry.




  • Ooohhh, I’ve been there!

    The CTO couldn’t keep his grubby hands of his employees, loved to “tickle” everybody because it was suuuuch a positive experience for all involved! None of the employees dared to say anything

    So anyway, I started blasting. I reported the fucker immediately, the branch where I worked for went ballistic, the one in Malta where he was stationed… Suggested I talk it out with him.

    So the Americas branch where I worked started a shit show while I went on my (already planned) vacation. All the VPs said they’d have my back!

    When I came back, my first meeting with my devs was replaced with a meeting with HR and the CTO who immediately dumped my ass.

    The very next day, the CTO himself was fired and he committed suicide shortly after (no joke)

    Moral of the story: fuck corporate environments, they’re fucking toxic as hell and promote this behavior and for all the “we got your back!!” Nobody showed up when I got axed because they were all scared for their jobs, except me.

    No. Regrets.
