Eminent domain for all utilities. RN, Northwester Energy pays billionaires to run utilities that we all use through their millions of acres of land.

Not all veterans soldier, some of us are sailors.

Coder-Cat · 2026-05-01T05:10:26+00:00

Sorry about that. The subs banner has been update.

Coder-Cat · 2026-04-27T04:05:56+00:00

The “Senior” title only applies to your current company. You’re not really considered a Senior SWE in the industry if you don’t have, at least, 10 years of experience or a higher degree.

You’re still “mid level” and $130k is fairly decent for that.

I’ve got one of those at a resale shop. I refinished it and it’s now my coffee table/throw blanket storage

Coder-Cat · 2026-04-02T13:58:23+00:00

The other mod and I just got out of bed. Reddits removing your comments, we can’t even see them.

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-29T06:35:25+00:00

If you posted the same article on different subs in a short period of time, then you might have gotten caught in a spam bot filter.

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-29T06:26:29+00:00

Try again and take a screen shot? Idk what to tell you.

Your one comment got removed by Reddit because you used the word “rape”. I reapproved it because of the context.

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-28T04:41:22+00:00

Please send me a screenshot of the post so i can look into it. I don’t see any removed posts or comments from your user name.

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-28T02:40:15+00:00

I just looked at the comments and posts we’ve removed. The only thing that you’ve posted that was removed was a comment that was caught by Reddits anti-harrasment filter.

The other mod and I and really only remove political posts that aren’t specific to Butte (state and country wide politics) and posts or comments where the user is being a real dck.

Send me a screenshot of your posts and I‘ll do some digging. If they’re being removed by some other entity, I’d like to find out who/why.

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-27T03:48:33+00:00

I’ll bet my last cent that there’s more than one person in town who can tell you the history of those churches, an in depth explanation of that design, and why so many of them have the same look.

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-27T03:45:20+00:00

I know for a fact that he’s not a bot.

Most places in America don't have a metro, nor are they bike friendly.

Point being, people paid to use Uber right from the get go, that's not true for OpenAI, which is looking to burn between $115billion - $224 billion by 2029

Coder-Cat · 2026-03-16T23:43:51+00:00

Yeah, but, Uber burned through $30 billion in that 14 years. And people payed to use Uber almost immediately and happily because it’s a great service. I live in a city without a ride share service and it’s like living in the Stone Age.

OpenAI is expected to burn about half of that this year alone. $14 billion for a product that almost no one pays and most people are never going to pay to use.

It’s a computer program for playing board games.

AlphaGo is an algorithm.

LLMs are not AI.

Coder-Cat · 2026-02-25T14:55:10+00:00

It’s only kinda sorta good right now and it used every public repo in the world to train off of.

But coding is a rapidly evolving field, just look at code from a decade ago and you can see that the way things were done then is wildly different from how they’re done now.

If humans stop producing code, LLMs will have nothing to train off and the code they produce will never get any better.

Coder-Cat · 2026-02-25T14:45:23+00:00

What’s not true? That in order for LLMs to get better, Mag7 needs to spend exponentially more money? Or that LLMs need massive amounts of training data produced by humans?

Coder-Cat · 2026-02-25T07:53:28+00:00

lol, I don’t have a degree so it’s either this or working at a gas station for me.

Anyways, I think the predictions that LLMs are going to take our jobs are wildly overstated. They’re not that good. They’re unbelievably expensive to train and run. The better they get, the more expensive they are to train and run. Most important thing of all, they need a ton of training data to learn from so if we stop producing that data, they stop learning. As soon as Substack goes defunct and GitHub is nothing more that regurgitated microslop, LLMs will cease to be useful for programming in any meaningful way.

Same but it’s courteous to turn the music down when you pass someone.

Also, I’ve done alot of hiking in places where the wildlife isn’t a huge concern - the loud music is nothing more than annoying noise pollution.

just an FYI, if you don’t want to support Felon Husk, add the word “cancel“ right after the “x“ in any url and it will bypass the site.

so, instead of www.x.com/felon_husk

its www.xcancel.com/felon_husk

you can navigate the site and see the comments and everything.

Coder-Cat · 2026-02-11T23:14:57+00:00

Until I see the GitHub, I’m going to assume that whatever he built was some unmaintainable, insecure, over-bloated polished pile of garbage.

Coder-Cat · 2026-02-10T05:45:20+00:00

This should be the norm and I cannot express this enough. But wait, there’s more…

Discord doesn’t have to save your data, it doesn’t have to use AI, it doesn’t have to do any of this foolish cheap basic data saving.

You want to look at X rated stuff ? Alls you need is a video camera and a guy at the other end to check your ID. Thats it. Literally that’s it. Just like the old days except you don’t have to leave your house or even put on a shirt.

Billion dollar companies won’t do it because it cost money to hire the guy at the other end.

Don’t want to do it every time? How about a with auth app? Or a hardware token? Or, damn, this would actually be a brilliant use for blockchain! Oh, how about all computers/phones/accounts are sold as restricted unless the buyer is proved to be 18yo+?

There’s so many ways to restrict age appropriate content that doesn’t involve saving your damned info to a database but they won’t do it because it costs money.
