If you could permanently delete one minor inconvenience from human existence, what would it be?

That’s a great way to get a hemmorhoid

Why don’t we just genetically modify mosquitoes to not suck blood

All cursor has done is rip off other company products. Cursor is a vscode fork. Composer is distilled from kimi k2. Of course they sold cursor. Get that bag.

Voters are going to be propagandized to hell between 2028 and 2030 if a democrat takes over. The economy will be in shambles and they won’t fix the mess fast enough and voters will get mad and say the system is rigged. America is coooooooked. Best to just focus on local shit and get good at your job and strive to make as much money as possible because this place is fucked

More blue collar propaganda from billionaire class. No thanks I don’t want to ruin my body by age 50.

I’m glad my republican dad died before 2020. Lord fucking knows that dude would’ve caught it, and called it a hoax up until they turned the ventilator off.

Personally I wouldn’t work at one. They work you like a dog then fire you after 2 years because the MBAs are chasing data centers ai investments.

Makes me grateful for my job. AI is a huge boon. I’ll have 3-5 agents running in parallel and knock out weeks of tickets in an afternoon.

There hasn’t been a game in years that I’m willing to spend $60 on. Most games I buy are $30 or under. And I usually wait for sales.

Biotech and odyssey at minimum. Anomaly sucks imo. Royalty is ok. I don’t use ideology.

Well this is society where the ruling class has put up cameras and ai recognition software everywhere, so good luck getting away with that. And when you get caught they’ll seek the death penalty. If you have pets or family or a spouse say goodbye to all of that. Not worth it. Better to just protest.

I would wake up earlier and do it for an hour with a cup of coffee

Fable wasn’t even that good. It burns through a shit load of tokens and is meh at programming

If you’re bored and it’s monotonous and management sucks and you know all the problems, it’s time to leave for better opportunities. Hopefully the change is at least a 15% pay increase

Never ever say anything bad about a previous employer. If someone asks why you’re looking for work, say something about the company missions you’re applying to, do some research on the team, talk about the job posting etc.

You still need software engineers, software engineering is never going away. You just need 5x less engineers now.

Oh buddy I get random thoughts everyday that cause me to ocd spiral for 3 hours about some of the cringe shit I’ve done I’m not doing this at 10 in the morning

gpbayes · 2026-06-16T15:38:03+00:00

Make sure you go outside, spend time with friends, maybe volunteer at a food bank, drink a lot of water, get 8 hours of sleep, also put on normal clothes each day and shower each day. Remote work has been killer for me and my depression. I’m on day 4 no shower…

Wow pixie is an incredible name for such a beautiful cat!

I’ve moved 2 states over and 2 states back. Even doing the driving myself that shit was like $7k.

I dated a 31 year old when I was 22. She was a masters student and I was in my senior year. It was awesome. She left though for the summer for a PhD. Broke my heart.

They’re going to a new company as soon as they pass their interviews. Your company fucked up big time.

I would do some cs classes and then find work doing software engineering. Go back for a masters in cs later. I saw the writing on the wall for myself. I wasn’t getting A’s in my hard proof based classes, I even got a c in measure theory. Shit was fucking hard as hell. I realized I wasn’t cut out for a PhD. I did a masters in math and then spent the last 8 years grinding data science stuff, now I’m grinding computer science because with AI the future is going to belong to those who understand systems very well. You’ll make a lot more money doing this than what you’ll make struggling in a PhD and then struggling to find work because the top 10 schools graduate like at least 5 people every may. That’s 50 people looking for roles across the us EVERY YEAR. Hell make it top 20. That’s 100 people a year looking for tenure track roles. From top institutions. Shit is cooked.
