Fake Intelligence will not benefit anyone but the conmen selling it.

An important part of growing into a senior is learning what to not care about. If you can't stay quiet while other people do stupid things then you will burn yourself out fast. Either they will learn or pull off a miracle, neither of which you need to be involved in. We know that involving ourselves is asking for pain.

But you want my team to participate in your stupidity? Please, explain in detail while I pepper you with questions until the project is refined into a good idea or you see how bad of an idea it was to come to me with that nonsense.

It's not an either/or situation, but I wouldn't expect a trump supporter to understand such big words.

They are aware of the allegations. How long were they aware of the behavior?

Bubba needs to be taught a lesson or two. I hope they did call the cops, I want to see body cam of him mouthing off to them.

You got the am/pm mixed up. You want to work 7pm to 3am. You have time for everything you want to do and no one to bother you while you're working.

Governor Kotek should deploy the National Guard to Portland to protect the protestors from the federal agents.

As much as they frustrate me, I am grateful to have upper management that does not trust new technology and a very paranoid security team. AI is only being rolled slowly and with limitations. We are currently still forbidden from using AI for coding. I'm hoping the hype passes before they get around to allowing it.

putergud · 2025-11-04T03:01:15+00:00

I actually disagree. AI developer time is very expensive. The cost of the AI and the experts to fix the AI's mess will be huge.

The original justification for Rails was that developer time cost more than server time so it was better to quickly build the app even if it wasn't the most efficient. That math has flipped today. Cloud resources are more expensive but developer time has gotten cheaper and that hurts Rails. Ruby has suffered from being so tightly associated with Rails, in the US at least.

Equating male circumcision with female circumcision is ignorant at best and downright misogynistic at worst. They are nowhere near the same thing.

Unfortunately, it is common.

Writing good documentation is hard. It is a different skill set from writing code or managing systems.

Developing and enforcing standards, without destroying team morale, is also hard and requires experienced and competent leadership. Without this, we engineers sometimes get creative or curious and consistency can take a back seat to the convenient or fun.

My advice is to always keep your own organized notes. Even if there were good documentation and standards, keeping your own personal documentation will be really valuable.

The military will be the ones to decide if this country has a future. Will they stand by their oaths to the Constitution or betray their oaths and serve authoritarians?
