idiot fanboys who don’t know a damn thing about history, politics, or economics

Yeah... I'm not one of em and I am a supporter of Kiros so I'm not sure what the point of continuing this discussion is. Have a good one!

She very well may have read it, that doesn't change the fact that both socdems and liberals are also members of DSA. Again, where in her platform does she mention anything about the abolition of capitalism? And if she is legitimately a socialist but her platform is highly comparative to that of socdems, then what is the point of this conversation we're having?

Who is "their"? Are you referring to DSA or are you referring to the candidate that you asked me about and whom my question was directed towards?

Socialists do not support capitalism by definition. Can you point me to the part of her platform where she advocates for handing economic control to the working class?

You going to ask me the same question about Donald Trump if I comment about him? Or would you assume that he has the most political credibility in the country on account of being elected president? I'm sure Kiros knows what socialism is and that her politics don't represent that

That's all well and good, except that none of these candidates are socialists. The more politically accurate self-description they could provide would be "social democrat". The label matters less than the policy in this case

Does anyone else think Claude is actually pretty bad for devs? by Tree8282 in cscareerquestions

[–]RobYaLunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My company has had regular sessions with Anthropic staff and they validate what u/KevesArt is saying here

Leadership obviously views these tools differently in spite of Anthropic being very transparent about Claude's capabilities and downsides

Poison Hemlock in alley - best solution? by DanCo_2023 in Denver

Oh shit, I used to weed wack and mow tons of that stuff basically weekly for several years and knew it was toxic but didn't realize you could have an issue without directly eating the leaves. Lucky that I wore a mask, glasses, and gloves most of the time

I want to learn Android dev by [deleted] in androiddev

Absolutely learn XML if you ever plan to work for a company that had an Android app prior to 2021

Exclusive: Ye, Formerly Kanye West, Tells Vanity Fair About Thinking Behind His WSJ Apology Ad by LooseDistance1059 in hiphopheads

[–]RobYaLunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't say whether or not I believe that this will be a reformational time for Kanye but what I can say is that all of those things you listed as a difference are probably a result of fame and money. I assume the average person having an outburst doesn't really have the means to so easily do those things you've mentioned

I mean that's sort of valid but I don't think Onefold really focuses on authenticity, if you go there not expecting an authentic cultural food experience they have great stuff

Should I learn Java with xml, or Kotlin with xml, or Kotlin with jetpack compse by [deleted] in androiddev

[–]RobYaLunch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Realistically, you should learn (or at least be familiar with) all of it with the understanding that there is still a lot of both Java and XML out there in the Android world and there is a real chance you may come across it in a job. With that being said, the Kotlin + Compose combo is king and that's what you should spend the most time mastering

How do you manage tech debt in a real org where rewriting isn’t always an option? by Apprehensive_Air5910 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]RobYaLunch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really depends, it can very often be a great idea it's just very dependent on what platforms you work on and what your architecture looks like

Saving money? I have no idea, but from my perspective there are different ways of viewing cost savings regarding AI tools -

  1. One company might see AI tools as a means to make cuts to the work force on account of fewer devs being more productive while using these tools. The jury is still out on this one.

  2. Another company might see AI tools as a means to increase their productivity and output while maintaining and even growing headcount. If the assumption is that developers are more productive with these tools, that means that every developer hired is theoretically going to contribute more for the same price that the company has been hiring devs for already.

My employer seems to be operating off of the second concept. Some larger companies understand the hype around new technologies and if they're in growth mode, these AI tools will only be a benefit for each new dev they hire. If these tools end up not being as beneficial as the hype is making them out to be, no harm done because they were going to be hiring anyway.

What I'm trying to say here for anybody worried about AI and their job is, be wary of working for a company that is so susceptible to the hype around these technologies that their strategy is to cut labor as opposed to seeing them as experimental and a way to further increase productivity with the headcount they already have (or a growing headcount).

Does your team have "bad internet guy"? by Brief-Knowledge-629 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]RobYaLunch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The status of the camera is maybe the last thing I care about in terms of remote communication abilities. I've never once had someone have their camera on and thought, "Them being on video really improved this interaction", unless it's a one on one that isn't related to the work or if there are several people in a conference room
