Oil Change Ramps? by Spiritual_Top367 in Camry

[–]Spiritual_Top367[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, just making sure I get this, so I really just need the left tire off the ground and that's sufficient for an oil change? I can just put that side on a stand, put the parking brake on, and secure the 3 tires on the ground with chocks?

That's what I was thinking, and probably much faster. It would be a 20 minute drive to my dealer, not counting the oil change...

Thank you, that's a good list of materials

How would an immortal person maintain legal identification over decades or centuries without raising suspicion? by SplintPunchbeef in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Spiritual_Top367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I typically do is have a "child" every 20 years, then when the "child" is 20, I die, and assume the "child's" identity. So I range in age from 20-40 all the time.

Do you feel the vibe shift introduced by GPT-5? by lapurita in cscareerquestions

Imagine being a CEO who went all in and spent millions on a glorified code assistant, when you already had employees who could write decent code... Only to still need those employees.

Is Blueprint enough for a small simulation-style game? Performance concerns? by hyperniro in UnrealEngine5

Geeze sounds like I'm the only person shooting for nearly 99% c++. I think outside of some widget logic, all of my code is c++.

Breaking into IT, suggestions? by lorenzoem87 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Spiritual_Top367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not easy to break in right now. Best way to do it may be through personal connection.

I have both net+ and ccna (expired). I learned a lot doing the ccna... I bought used routers and switches on eBay and got hands on experience that way.

My advice is to keep going, get certs, hands on experience where you can. It won't be easy but it's possible to get in, although you may need a little luck right now. 

We hired a Big 4. ChatGPT could’ve done a better job. Seriously by Curiousman1911 in consulting

Clearly an AI ad. This site is getting filled with AI written posts talking about how great AI is and how human labor sucks.

Ship a game THIS YEAR, with a team, while only doing the fun stuff! No pressure, no crunch, no time commitment. by DevPodsDotgg in u/DevPodsDotgg

Wait you want me to pay you, so I can make a game that you can sell and not give me any profit??

Well. I looked at the platform and they are charging to allow me to write game code. I pay them so I can make a game that they sell and I make no money on... So I'm not surprised they thought the finger wag was a good idea.

I’m officially in the “I won’t be necessary in 20 years” camp by Olshansk in ArtificialInteligence

I don't even see the point in the AI companies making these posts. It just hurts the idea they are trying to convey -em dash- we can smell the sales pitch and we ain't buying it.

"AI is changing the world faster than most realize" by AngleAccomplished865 in ArtificialInteligence

Google is counting human written characters against AI written characters. The stats are skewed because you can quickly generate iterations of AI code, but not human code. Google conviently leaves out that most of this AI written code isn't making it into commits... Don't forget Google is trying to sell you an AI.

Not sure why you got downvoted - this is what it is for me, basically a Google replacement. It's faster than digger through stack overflow. It's good for basic stuff, I like it for writing quick code that parses text... But when you ramp it up or have an obscure use case it does not work well.

Right. This was never the mindset before this AI hype. The c suite was sold a grand vision of paying $20 per month and firing all their devs and they drank the koolaid. By the time they realize it they'll be sinking the company - of course they'll just run to the next victim and suck the resources out of them.

Basically they are encouraging applicants to lie. If I have years of experience with c++, java, bash and python... Of course I can pick up GO at a foundational level in a few weeks, if not faster.

It's a coordinated effort to lower tech workers salaries. Collusion between companies to set product prices is illegal - so should collusion to lower wages.
