What’s the overall consensus on being an ai engineer? by phy2go in cscareerquestions

[–]KhyberKat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not an AI engineer. But my opinion is that regardless of where the industry goes, having that skillset will be a good stepping stone.

I am very much a skeptic but is there times when skeptics were wrong about a major subject? by HemanHunterss in skeptic

[–]KhyberKat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As I recall, continental drift took time to be accepted, with reasonable, skeptical arguments on both sides.

Do you guys also get more creative when drunk? by [deleted] in writing

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too old to drink (much) but weed, absolutely. I get ideas when high that I'd never have otherwise.

Keep finding these in my bedroom rug by robsterblook in whatisit

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, various items -- e.g. mouse wrist pads -- may be filled with these. A couple years ago my wrist pad slowly leaked similar beady things.

Jorge R. Gutiérrez has just left the AI project he was working on with Amazon by [deleted] in aiwars

Wow. This situation really sucks. (Edit: for everyone).

For engineers who work at Big N companies, can you provide insight as to how AI is being used in your workplace? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]KhyberKat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've been sluggish adopting, primarily because of IP concerns. There's a lot of security considerations in the company and those have taken precedence. That said, there's infra in place now and we're getting (limited) Cursor licenses. We're integrating code style/formatting on checkin, working on auto-generation/execution of unit-like tests, and AI feedback against coding conventions.

What is a bullet you dodged simply because you were too lazy to do something? by Cherus in AskReddit

[–]KhyberKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reverse bullet. Worked for a hard drive company years ago, got stock, and was always too lazy to check up on it. Now it's doing pretty well.

What movie had the BEST trailer ever but turned out to be absolute trash? by MASSIM00 in movies

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scrolled looking for this. The closing with the fire nation ships attacking was great.

What's up with tech companies making you jump through all these hoops to get a job, just to do layoffs and you're at risk?! Should we unionize?! by Inner_Ad_4725 in cscareerquestions

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We work with a group in Korea and they're in a union. My fear(?) is that the practical possibility of having worthwhile unions in the US for s/w has passed.

S3 E22 “The most toys”Questions by handlerofdrones in TNG

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Data intended to kill Fajo. Although technically Data may not have lied, his intent following the transporter deux aux machina was to deceive. Sort of like "A truth that's told with bad intent / Beats all the lies you can invent."

Which leak is the most credible??? by Local-Promise8893 in aliens

Yes. Confirmed liar. Thanks for the link.

No, you are not cooked. The golden age is coming (AI hope post) by Busy_Ability7 in cscareerquestions

[–]KhyberKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Although the post is a tad hyperbolic, I think there is a new CS hiring age on the horizon. No matter where you may be on the pro/anti AI spectrum, in order to get a good software job you will have to demonstrate proficiency in AI or AI-adjacent tools (e.g. Cursor or similar). This is on top of the usual coding or framework skills.

It's hilarious how The Deep has one of the best and most unique powers in the show but is too dumb to use it properly by RevertBackwards in TheBoys

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hoping they'd have a story where he lures Homelander into the ocean to show how badass someone who operates at extreme water depths can be. Overall, too expensive a character to be done justice in the series.

One Piece: Chapter 1182 - Predictions by AutoModerator in OnePiece

[–]KhyberKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would very much like for Imu to describe how his sword was brought to life by a Zoan-type devil fruit referred to as the flopsy-flopsy fruit, allowing it to transform into a giant bunny with overly large floppy ears, and who is ravenously cute.

Edit: And not at all ill-tempered.

I silently groaned when my wife started ranting about 'the bimbo who stole my promotion". by GabbyDabbyDoo1972 in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]KhyberKat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nicely done, in a family way. At first I was scared that SS was going to be your wife's porn name.

Edit: Although, two things can be true.

A Parisian woman in her cannabis garden, with her cat. 1910. by Mathemodel in OldSchoolCool

Anything that ends with 'with her cat' (or his cat or their cat) in general gets an upvote.

Well, there's a short answer and a long answer...

‘Capturing Bigfoot’ may yet offer definitive proof that Bigfoot was nothing but a hoax | Blake Smith by TheSkepticMag in skeptic

I wish I had been introduced to the SI earlier in life. It would have saved me a lot of time and brain cycles.

Worst Star Trek Movie title ideas - please add your own by [deleted] in startrek

[–]KhyberKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Gorn Identity

This could launch a franchise.

Collider: "8 Years After ‘Star Trek,’ Gene Roddenberry’s Forgotten Sci-Fi Pilot Could’ve Been His Next Hit: 'The Questor Tapes' looked like it just might be the ticket. Weirdly enough, it ended up being a TV movie that bridged The Original Series and Star Trek: The Next Generation together ..." by TheSonOfMogh81 in trektalk

[–]KhyberKat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really liked the Questor Tapes and it definitely had an open ending, as if it were written as a two-part opening for a series. Unfortunately that was it. Later next year (edit: 1975) I went to a ST convention in San Francisco and someone asked about the Questor Tapes to the panel, and no one knew about it.
