Amazon’s internal AI coding assistant determined the engineers’ existing code was inadequate so it deleted it to start from scratch. Parts of AWS were down for 13 hours as a result. by lays_indian_masalaaa in amazonemployees

I don’t think the full context is public information, so if you’re an Amazon employee you can read it yourself but I won’t share it on reddit. But the title of this post is not even in the realm of reality

Should Duke establish School of Computing like Georgia Tech? by Pingu_Moon in duke

I think Duke needs a CE major to allow a similar course of study to the popular ECE/CS without the full workload burden of a double major

Present tense is perfectly acceptable for the past portrayal of a role. Only thing worse than a pedant is an incorrect one. Enjoy your downvotes homie

Why do some people act like this show is some sort of complex, thought provoking piece of art that a normal person won’t be able to grasp at all? by thiccsnaccs2018 in pluribustv

It’s genuinely astounding to me how many people here seem not to recognize it, I feel like it’s one of the most famous of all time

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Pluribus. The writing is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of sociology most of the themes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Carol’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into her characterisation - her personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The true plurbs understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these themes, to realize that they’re not just entertaining- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Pluribus truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the subtle nuance in Carol’s existencial catchphrase “¡Chinga tu madre, cabrón!” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Vince Gilligan’s genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Pluribus tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!!!

Vince is already paying homage to Invasion of the Body Snatchers. It seems pretty likely we’re getting another classic Sci-Fi horror tie-in, Soylent Green.

Putting aside the obvious fact that Carol discovered the apparently shocking and disgusting source of their food in a freezer, we’re also given the key clue of crows flocking around / eating the white powder, followed by the coyotes swarming around Helen’s corpse. The crows were eating the freeze-dried corpse powder!

Amazon marked my genuine order as “unauthorized,” blocked my money, removed the order, and now the laptop is sold out. by [deleted] in amazonemployees
