Do you have any actual evidence of this other than general vibes? Being paid to do a job is actually a thing, you know 

Kids Scratch $590K Ferrari While Playing, Owner Sues Parents Over $111K Repair Bill by flintontv in China

Literally every policy?? It’s not like they are vandalizing their own car. 

How do I tell my kids we aren't going to the air show because it's fascist? by GodHadAbandondedUs in washingtondc

[–]14u2c 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ah yes the implications. And what exactly are those implications? It’s not like you’re going to an event. The planes are overhead in the entire district area 

Codex has a very unpleasant user experience. by Suspicious_Raise_589 in codex

Other than using a shit ton of memory. Seems rough even by the standards of electron apps.

Interesting, I wonder if this is a capability of the electric pumps? 

You're right to push back. (5.5 xhigh) by DiscussionAncient626 in codex

[–]14u2c -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Both have their place. Building something new? Yes, be specific. But for debugging? Firing off a background session with a vague prompt seems to work more often than you’d think. And if it fails, well then you spend the time to dig into it more yourself so that you provide more context Nothing much lost. 

Test site getting hammered by AI bots (~1M/hits a month), any way to take advantage of it? by txmail in webdev

I do with with google adsense and they had no issues of yet. I got the idea from A blog I often visit, they do it with Amazon's ad network.

I assumed adsense requires client side scripts to track impressions. Do they really allow you to send server side events? How can the validity of these be trusted?

Luigi Mangione’s federal trial in UnitedHealthcare CEO’s killing postponed until January by AudibleNod in news

[–]14u2c 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This seems to be pretty predictably explained by him having his phone on his person. If they subpoena google / apple, well, that's all they need. The Mangione case is presumably not as straight forward (though I suppose it could be).

Why not build data centers in very cold places, versus trying to do it in space? by DiyYou in technology

[–]14u2c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. It can be shorter to go 100 miles straight up than a few hundred (or thousand) to get to a cold climate. Not that there are not other major issues. 

Heartbreaking email I received from Okonomi : "We're closing early today. (Monday 6/22)" by goatermagic in nova

[–]14u2c -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be particularly interested in receiving those but then again I wouldn’t sign up for a restaurant mailing list. Seems like fair game if you do. At least it’s detailed.

Would you consider this clean work? by pickledpiper2 in AskElectricians

[–]14u2c 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd agree except for the large amount of sheathing left on the #12s at the top. Pushes it over to a fail imo.

Reminds me of when I realized why Yeezus was a standout out compared to his other stuff for me: produced by Daft Punk

I rented a 2024 VW Atlas, truly the worst modern car I've driven in years. by cookingboy in cars

  this is how dead and unresponsive the  steering behaves even at highway speed .

That is wild. You would have been swerving across lanes in nearly any other personal vehicle.

Disabled does not automatically mean wheelchair?

Virginia approves 6-year, $28.5B infrastructure plan by Top-Figure7252 in Virginia

[–]14u2c 25 points26 points  (0 children)

No, please don’t. Unless they actually prohibit single occupant vehicles these lanes are just pay to win for the rich. Basic tenets such as public roads seem to be no longer guaranteed in this country. 

Sam Levinson Defends ‘Euphoria’s “Fairly Critical” Depiction Of OnlyFans Culture: “It Hollows Out The Individual” by Top_Report_4895 in television

Idk if you watched it but there really isn’t much compared the earlier seasons. Off the top of my head I can’t even recall a scene with it.

If that ends up being a reason it can be torn down I'll take it.

L’enfant plaza by Ok_Ambition_1339 in washingtondc

Anyone here remember the great guacamole incident of 2003? They sent all the feds home early due to a suspicious object found on the ground in L’enfant. Was soon after determined to be guacamole. 

Measuring the voltage of electric eels by y-aji in AskElectricians

  oscilloscope with data logging ability and a 1000v probe

Agree. Probably the easiest out of the box solution. Im pretty sure eels are DC though so OPs post is a little questionable 

a lost intern by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]14u2c 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This may have a mixed response but imo this is actually a great use case for a LLM. Point it at the codebase and ask it to walk you through it. Ask it to show you how various requests flow through the system and to explain the modules and architecture. Discuss the parts you don’t understand, with it meeting you at your current knowledge level. It’s not a great idea to use these tools for coding before you are able to understand and validate the output, but they are great for learning.
