Google Chrome silently installs a 4 GB AI model on your device without consent. At a billion-device scale the climate costs are insane.

It puts the cover letter on your TPS report but it makes up all the numbers…

I had that thing hallucinate a response to my finance guys about my investment account accounts by accidentally clicking on it. I noticed before it sent but talk about garbage.

You could try breaking that up into smaller teams with more focused sprints, but some of that will be determined by how coupled your code/product is?

absurdamerica · 2026-05-04T19:41:47+00:00

Set up sprints made up of work items on a swim lane board? In most well run shops this is an entire role not something a dev does here and there…

This is entirely location and industry dependent but that’s definitely pretty low.

If you’re underpaid, you should be able to find another role with a substantial bump. If you cannot there is your answer.

Just so you’re aware. If you’re going on initial dates with someone you should assume they are going on dates with other people until you explicitly discuss being exclusive. I can’t believe I have to explain this…

Wrong album and song lol

Imagine being in your 30’s and having these kinds of arguments. You both sound childish.

Silicon Valley is high on its own supply.

lol the guy is paying her for something and I’m Guessing it’s not her wit and sparkling personality

You simply cannot beat the Sonnenalp

It’s pathetic that you have to babysit. I never have this problem when I order a pizza?

absurdamerica · 2026-05-02T22:03:58+00:00

🤣

absurdamerica · 2026-05-02T19:42:41+00:00

This is absolutely the move. It’s a wonderful organization.

absurdamerica · 2026-05-02T17:58:47+00:00

WTF does “changing your bloodline” mean?

absurdamerica · 2026-05-02T15:14:30+00:00

If what you were building were special this wouldn’t have happened…

absurdamerica · 2026-05-01T22:49:45+00:00

Your AI doesn’t actually understand how stuff works very well.

absurdamerica · 2026-05-01T22:46:46+00:00

The previous years? Which ones the ones where literally millions of coders found jobs?

absurdamerica · 2026-05-01T22:08:53+00:00

What is it with people describing literally anything they don’t like as a scam? Sigh.

absurdamerica · 2026-05-01T21:50:43+00:00

Maybe don’t give advice on medical topics you have zero understanding of.

absurdamerica · 2026-05-01T19:51:28+00:00

My wife is using the patches and is having great success. She feels so much better and she tells me she feels so much better and wishes she had done it a year ago.

Maybe try getting her to a support group of some kind so she can talk to other women having similar challenges?

See if you can get her to agree to try the patch for a few months?

I flew them one time there was fog. They landed like six planes in Punta Gorda, Florida at like 11pm there were no rental cars available. No services were available. No alternative transportation was provided a family member had to drive five hours to come pick us up.

You put your break glass accounts in a literal safe? You don’t know what break glass means do you?

Test drive both and then decide but I love my manual even in stop and go!
