A guy walks over to his friend’s friend’s house and tells him to pay up or else. The reasonable response would be to spit in his face and tell him to get bent.

Trump’s policy decisions killed those people in Texas & Epstein helped him and other sick rich monsters rape kids

Reminds me of this for some reason

No shit, people want cheap, reliable transport and workers would want to build them, build and work on replacement parts, build batteries, etc. The only people supported by blocking BYD in the US are executives, shareholders, and the politicians they bought.

Not even a second, it’s sometimes less than 250-300ms. If I wasn’t already anticipating it to fail and disengage as it went though the 2-lane wide turn I would have gone straight into oncoming traffic

It’s just a tool, like a search engine or a guillotine

Why use age instead of a knowledge check instead?

It’s not a back door, it’s just a rear entryway

It’s been interesting seeing the changes as they happened over time working with java pretty often for a good chunk of that time. The jvm and jit performance improvements, syntax changes and additional jep features added vs what was left out, tools for running and managing jvms, Sun & Oracle shooting themselves in the foot repeatedly, new jvm languages with scala, groovy, clojure, etc and their impact on java. I prefer other languages and tool chains for some cases, but java has been pretty good for building reliable, upgradable, extendable systems that get the job done & have a good large stable library.

I’m withdrawing from the race, I think a political career would interfere with my drug dealing

Calling them communities makes you streets ahead

I’m not buying whatever a billionaire nepo baby CEO monopoly owner is pedaling. Let’s hear what some labor leaders have to say about it for a change.

Same had a little acer mini laptop in early 2000s I used it for notes, office apps, etc during college and between the battery life and how much more portable it was than the giant laptop I had at the time it was great, it ran BSD without any fuss too.

Code written by software doesn’t mean AI unless you ignore compilers

Executives lie to boost profits and justify their decisions, I doubt MS execs even know how much of their code is AI generated just like the ad sales company exec they were talking to in the article

The command line is an exceptionally useful tool, you may want to spend a little time getting familiar with it and common command line tools that would probably make self hosting almost anything easier.

It’s like wanting to learn to play guitar but not learning how to restring and tune it, sure it’s not necessary but you’re going to be overly dependent on others to do something you could learn for yourself with a little time and patience, and it will probably broaden your perspective on what you can do once you do get familiar with how to pipe commands together and combine basic tools into something more sophisticated and complex.

We hide from the robots during the rain and snow, because they can’t see where they have to go

Billionaire oligarchs should have been stopped by peaceful means like taxes if they didn’t want to be stopped the other way.

corpo translation: left leaning folks in the US are generally more educated currently and are more likely to critically question whether a social media account is a corporate bot and question our bots when they shill products, so we’re going to target the less educated population by appealing to their populist politics of rage bait and xenophobia.

Also “helicopter” and “buttock” put together

Fox ‘news’*: anything I disagree with is terrorism, trump isn’t a bigoted idiot tanking the economy, there’s no class war, we’re just entertainment not news 🤡

Mastodon, lobsters, Lemmy, talking with coworkers and friends, occasional research papers from the field I studied, and I have a few sites I rotate for national or international news but those aren’t really tech specific
