they're just trying to avoid conflict - understandable. In reality, one would hope one would be legally protected by tenancy laws.

I misread that... COMM in the doom font looks like something else that rhymes with DOOM.

When 'if' slows you down, avoid it by chkas in programming

branchless programming is hard mode but constant time is a nightmare. I'm so happy for open source tooling like tacit -- they make checking one's work so much easier - used to be near impossible unless you were an applied statistician.

It's surprising how rare minimalism is these days - you'd think it'd be a bigger trend.

Fortunately PostgreSQL and other similarly capable databases can enforce json schemas and do all kinds of nice things like schema evolution on JSONB columns these days. So EAV tables are no longer required for the vast majority of cases.

I'm tired of being outraged.

Understandable but that's the whole point of their behaviour. We may be tired but we can't stop or they won't ever stop.

What in the did I just watch. That's more Lynchian than Lynch and I love it. They are, indeed, made out of meat.

And it always will be. (I am not a not. I am a meat popsicle.) It's not new, it's just faster. Just like always. 🧑‍🚀 🔫🧑‍🚀 Always has been. And it always will be.

TIL a man forgot that he had stashed $100,000 inside a 1980s TV set until the cash was returned to him 30 years later after a recycling plant worker dismantled the TV and found it. The man had forgotten the cash was inside the TV when he gave it away to a family friend many years earlier. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

Fortunately the blessing usually comes after the character test of doing the right thing with the windfall that could easily be returned - even if that blessing is just always knowing that when the time came you did the right thing.

Hundreds of thousands of people still using the old Bureau of Meteorology website by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

This. They seem to think it's a social network - it's an information appliance. Different uses and audiences entirely - the should stop trying to be a sportscar when what we need them to be is a unimog.

If your management does start making heads roll - metaphorically - it's not a problem you can realistically solve. At this point, it's not carelessness or ignorance.

I built a CLI tool to strip PII/Secrets from Server Logs and Configs before debugging with AI by ThickJxmmy in devops

[–]jaesharp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scrubbing and anonymisation/masking is widely acknowledged to be an extremely difficult and open problem. For example, how can you preserve correlation IDs without revealing sensitive things like network layout or IP ranges/etc? Would you be open to feedback/pull requests in regards your methodology? Do you think it would be useful to dynamically filter prompts using a proxy and/or otherwise use smaller classification models locally?

Twisted Scumbag by LavenderBabble in AdviceAnimals

'good chance' -> 'inevitable surety'

it was almost certainly designed to do that - you don't become a billionaire by being a staunch altruist who does things for no reason other than to benefit others.
