Neither are good, stop using discount brainrot shopping sites

Soldiers are not civilians, and Russian state media are the only ones who report that Ukrainians have invaded the Russian border. Try again

Israel is defending themselves so hard, they’re throwing Israeli soldiers over the Palestinian border to abuse and murder civilians, fuckin righteous

Bro chipotle gets made in real time as I speak. It’s faster.

I am a tech consumer and enthusiast first. I am a corporate shill sellout second. I wish for bad practices in the tech community to die, even if it’s my own company doing it.

My concern as an engineer is that the product gets made well. I have no say or control over how the business cretins and marketing scumbags decide to destroy the company through terrible unethical practices like charging SaaS for completely self-contained software.

The short term view is that you need to keep a company afloat. Businesses should fail if they deliver products in awful ways. Yes, if the company fails, I will lose my job, and that is okay. It would be through no fault of my own, or really even the customers who wouldn’t pay for my company’s product. It would be the fault of the business decisions that were made. And the product landscape would then open up after my company’s failure. For example, if Adobe would finally fucking die then we may actually see better products on the PDF, and photo/video editing market. No more monopoly on sub-par creative cloud products.

The more realistic long term view is that software engineers will be okay if their company fails. The overwhelming majority are smart, get paid extremely well, and exist in a field that needs their manpower. They will be able to find a new job much easier than other fields. The tech community will not be okay long-term if bad companies cannot fail.

I am a programmer, and I get paid whether or not the product is bought. Shovel your dogshit somewhere else.

Ask your company to pay for the certs. At best you get free certs and can then leave them and make more money somewhere. At worst they say no.

Going from zero certs to getting my Sec+ landed me a better job with a new company and nearly doubled my income. (Cloud architecture engineer). Can’t speak to any other certs.

I give OP the bipolar pass

Never hurts either

For every hour of work/coding I do, there is probably 4 to 5 hours of waiting for shit to automatically compile, fetch, build, release, apply, get reviewed, approved, and deployed. The downtime is immense, I spend it helping other people with shit or planning company potlucks (I don’t work for Microsoft).

This is giving me body fat percentages that are around double what I get from other methods. Not sure what’s up, but I don’t really believe my 5’8" 150lb ass is 30% body fat

It’s hard to find an email service that doesn’t ask for a phone number now a days. Even shit ass Proton mail does it now

“AI Wars” is likely in reference to big tech companies in real life fighting each other for dominance over the generative AI space. Meta’s AI vs Google’s Gemini vs OpenAI’s ChatGPT etc …

To me this comic reads as if a personified company AI was actually at war and killing enemy AIs. Except the AI that got shot was secretly a human in disguise

This is a webcomic / art relating to the FOSS world. OP is the artist and has tons of fucking amazing surreal comics like this. They all take place in a dystopian cyber world where corporate technology oppresses the free tech users

The commenters probably aren’t bots, just tech nerds schizo posting

Mustard belongs nowhere. It should not exist. It is an affront to God. I want this label placed on all food.

It might not be generative AI, but it is still primitive AI that drives the mapping of the physical streamer’s body to the animated cartoon body

Even web scraping for research purposes, not for competitive purposes.
