I’ve been wondering the same, so hard. I feel like at this point I’d like to see a comparative study of the job of people that see it VS the job of people that don’t.
I remember some twenty years ago when I finished college I had this internship that turned into a summer job afterwards. Prestigious organization in fancy skyscraper. Our teachers were a bit nervous about it since it was the first time the got the org to accept interns and made it clear we should be extremely grateful and well behaved, or else.
Godfuck the job was boring. This massive tentacular place had a million subdivisions doing roughly the same thing in a different region but somehow each had enough torque to get to have their own little website with a different interface design and a handful of different fields. Our job was to rewrite backends from [boring old basic MS tech] to [shiny new overengineered MS tech]. Dozens and dozens of roughly alike but not entirely identical backends. After months of work there was still at least as much to do as had been done. The architects in place had no desire for harmonization or reuse. They knew be heart the features the seemed to rewrite periodically in a fancier ways.
Sometimes I wonder how many places feel like that, how many programmers embrace the repetitive churn, oblivious to the affront against the very core of software this represents. If these are the ones that see it.
I don’t have any attachment to feet as opposed to any other body part from someone nice but I think it’s sweet that some people do. Feet have it really rough and deserve more recognition.
I think this paragraph from Nature’s article is very relevant:
The company has not revealed all the precise details and steps of how it did this, nor the name of the AI system that achieved the result
Ah yes, yet again an AI company achieves a great thing "by AI" with a perfectly opaque model in a perfectly opaque way. Why don’t they show their users how to unleash the full potential of their product? Reproducibility or GTFO.
NECKLACES! I love necklaces and always need more necklaces. As Malyca said stacking is always nice. Accumulation of similar things is more often than not gorgeous in general. A couple of necklaces with complementary, contrasting shapes or colors can really rock too. Tight dainty necklace + loose loud necklace is a mix I enjoy as well! It's a lovely necklace you got 😊
So. I'd like to ask you about ttrpg. Do you know of nice queer communities that play online? I played D&D back in the day but now I wonder how it'd feel without the queer-phobic vibes (sad lol.)
I had my wisdom teeth emerge and withdraw back and forth for years - they seem to have settled now, but dont be surprised if yours gets a little shy from all this new attention and goes back into hiding for a bit.
AI tools can generate functional, adequate, perfectly average code at a speed and cost that would have been unimaginable even five years ago. And like the outsourcing wave of the early 2000s, the economics are real and rational. Nobody is wrong for using these tools. The code they produce is often fine. It works. It passes tests. It might ship as-is.
Not the first time I've read this kind of statement and I always struggle to reconcile this with my personal experience. I'm seriously doubting that I'm just not a "good enough prompter". I know how to explain context from domain to tech and vice versa, that's like, a good 20% of my job. I'd say that AI tools are good at producing code that already exists.
The LLMs are an interface to a corpus of written material. They've never had a thought, a chat around the coffee machine, or any experience in the largest sense of the world. This is a hard barrier on any induction they may emulate.
Whether or not one is heteronormatively attractive enough to let out one's thighs shouldn't be a thing. Showing skin in public aught to be freed from the male gaze's judgement. Ah but there's so much internalized prejudice to peel off. Maybe one day.
It's a dog's life 😔

This is chill to do once in a while! I like it.
Nice and toasty?? Oh was it to dry them up well after washing?
Really wanna pet that smooth saxophonist 😊

wtf
Oh no just nicely erupting as in "Hellooo I’m out of the gums now! chomp~chomp ^___^". Dunno what’s the best verb for it I’m not a native speaker.
You won the tooth fairy lottery!
:3
OK no offense but I don’t trust cats, especially for dental advice. Love y’all so much though.
sup
Not if it presents no issues.
*hits you with pan*
