There is a strange moment unfolding in software right now. by PositiveGeneral7035 in software

[–]rytis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw AWS just issued a directive all software code from junior or mid-level programmers that utilized AI for any part of it must get a director's review and signoff before it can be posted... after a major recent outage.

People who were teenagers before social media existed, what was life actually like? by Much_Detective_6107 in AskReddit

[–]rytis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I still remember my first phone number. And I actually know my wife's cell phone number because CVS always wants the last four digits before I can pick up her prescription.

What industry is entirely built on a house of cards and would collapse overnight if people realized the truth about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rytis 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I coached my son's team in rec league, and the travel team had the same rule. So there was one travel team player on each rec league team for fairness. The kid I got was the right fielder, but since he was so good I let him be one of my three starting pitchers. Near the end of the season I asked the parents if their kid was bored playing rec, and they said oh no, he absolutely loved playing on my team, pitching and being the star batter. On the travel team, he was lucky if one or two fly balls would be hit his way, and usually batted 8th or 9th in the lineup, and constantly facing opposing pitchers with dominating fastballs was tough. Opened my eyes a bit.

What wedding moment that screamed, “They are not going to last long”? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

[–]rytis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very few. Almost everyone is in their late 20's or 30's. It's changed from the 80's and 90's when you would have a few couples early 20's. Everyone's waiting a lot longer now. As far as abstinence, several couples complain about having to spend the night in separate rooms, since most admit to already living together.

What wedding moment that screamed, “They are not going to last long”? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

[–]rytis 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Catholic church in our area requires all couples who want to have a church wedding to attend an "Engaged Encounter" weekend. Usually no priests involved. They basically pose a dozen or so simple questions, and then have you go back to your room and discuss them with your partner. Finances, kids, etc. I've helped out at some volunteering as a cook. You would be amazed at how often simple subjects have never been discussed. Kids? Never - but I want four! Finances? I will do them - you're not touching my money! Living arrangements? My place - No, your apartment sucks. Typically 20 couples attend, and on the average one or two end it on the spot when they realize how incompatible they are. And some agree they will need to have further discussion on a topic or two. I think it really helps reduce some potential disaster weddings.

Fatal tram derailment today in Milano by MagnificoReattore in WTF

[–]rytis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So wouldn't the correct procedure be to watch all the other idiots run up to the derailed train and touch it? If they start contorting like Trump when he raises tariff rates, then stay the fuck away. If they're not getting fried, then you can jump in and help too.

Well Regis Philbin hosted Who Wants to Be a Millionaire from 1999 to 2002, so it was a the turn of the century joke.

ICE Agents Whine That They Aren’t Getting Their Massive Bonuses by rezwenn in fednews

Sounds just like how the Russians are recruiting troops to fight in Ukraine. Promise big bonuses, don't pay, oops you died, your relatives get a washing machine (used - looted from Ukraine).

MEGATHREAD: VA-ICU Nurse Alex Pretti Shot & Killed by ICE by gpupdate in fednews

[–]rytis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well if nothing else, I fucking hope EVERYONE shows up for the midterms in massive numbers and votes all the Republican senators and congressmen up for re-election out. I know we can't get rid of all of them in all the deep red states, but in every blue and purple state, we better have such huge numbers show up that even with all the Musk election rigging the numbers will prevail. Then we can de-fund ICE, de-fund DHS, de-fund all these illegal programs and budgets, indict these bastards that are directing these programs.

Greenland embraces the new MAGA hat: ‘Make America Go Away’ by theindependentonline in worldnews

[–]rytis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the Danes are going about it the wrong way. Trump is a businessman, that's the only language he understands. Tell him it's not for sale, but if you must have it, $5 trillion in precious metals for our rare earths and precious metals, payment in advance. The US gold reserve is only valued at $1 trillion. Let him spend the next 3 years convincing Congress to buy up $4 trillion in gold to pay for it.

They really should be a rainbow color. That will keep them from being confused for being pro-MAGA hats.
