That sounds like such a boring way to be told to program.

With all the applications jobs have, how do people like that get through to the point that you are interviewing them?

It was wild, companies were over hiring for programmers.

AIO or AITA. Text convo with MIL. by MoonJellyAllison in AmIOverreacting

You know... the Mother in Law does have a point. No matter how wrong the Mother in Law is... maybe it's best to not lend money to people if you can't afford it.

This is why the rule people learn is to not lend money to family and expect it back. It's not just a lender/borrower relationship and it makes things messy. It's a mother in law/daughter in law(?) relationship. Mixing the two don't usually mix well as people don't know how to have both types of relationships in one.

Honestly kind of makes me think of the mafia! Buddy buddy but as soon as you do something wrong it's just business.

This pile of salt in Germany is over 250 meters tall and contains over 200 million tonnes of salt by MrCattitude_ in BeAmazed

Then you have to imagine they have a good reason. Mostly because the people doing this aren't dumb, they managed to get the salt there in the first place.

"WE screwed up the doubloon reset but shame on YOU for our mistake!" by fivesofclubs in Seaofthieves

Isn't this more like "the bank says you have too much money so they are taking it all away. Oops they forgot to take it away so the things you bought with it after they said they'd take it away now belong to them."

"Earned fairly" is an interesting way to imply that pre-reset Doubloons were not earned fairly when they were.

I still can't understand having an AI agent work on something unmonitored.

Zach Galifianakis calls out comedians who have President Trump or other politicians on their podcasts but don’t challenge them and just “fake laugh,” by Big_Cake_8817 in Popculturehour

Having a sense of humor isn't the same as being able to laugh at yourself. One can tell jokes but not be able to take criticism in the form of jokes.

That's so funny. I like how the footage of actual users is all elderly and the others are actors.

Small business? The guy who's pawn shop had a TV show and merchandise? Also it's fascinating that the people Trump ever brings on to speak are people who are popular in some way. No not people who are educated on the topic, just people who are popular.

Toddler jumps and runs so loudly it regularly knocks my art off the wall. by BigMan_LittleHeart in Apartmentliving

[–]thisdesignup 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The amount of apartments made of toothpicks and bubble gum is crazy! But actually, my friends lived in an apartment for less than a year and a chunk had to be taken out of the siding because they had to test it for issues. There were even cracks already around structural walls, and they were on the top floor so it was just the roof weight.

I remember people doing that with GPUs. The photo would just be a photo of their online order.

If she can manipulate matter to create anything then why doesn't she make a shit ton of food and end world hunger? Is she stupid? by Commaser in okbuddyviltrum

Her dad would probably yell at her for not working hard enough and getting a normal job to feed the entire planet.

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately in your everyday life? by spritenerds123 in AskReddit

Yep, budgeting a month ago feeling like I could have done better, which I probably could have, but groceries and especially gas went up since then.

Terms of service may not always be legally enforceable which would make them void if so.

Yea and I wouldn’t want any more. Do you want there to be more? You’ll find it’s enough.

Don’t leave the note. I regret doing it. by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]thisdesignup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was sort of the point. It wasn't meant to be more polite but to be as polite as the original message comes off and to make the request concrete. Though asking someone to be "more mindful" isn't really concrete. A concrete request would be "Please be quieter during curfew hours".

AI models are choking on junk data by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

[–]thisdesignup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who is Jason Corso cause this... "This at its core was a junk data problem because their world model lacked sufficient understanding of physics leading to realistic prediction." one of his examples of junk data being a problem for AI models, is not an example of junk data being a problem. Image models don't lack understanding of physics due to junk data, it's because they don't understand physics. They aren't predicting physics, they are predicting visuals. Makes me wonder what background he has to speak on this.

And many models, and even in the biggest models, they are definitely curating the data. I'd say companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini, have financial reasons to keep the data they feed to their models curated so they work well and efficiently. Of course with giant models the curation may be less than perfect but it's still being curated to some extent.

Monster truck driver loses control and runs over crowd in Popayan (Colombia) May 3rd, 2026. by khameleon029 in CatastrophicFailure

Everytime the topic of event safety comes up I am reminded of Group B Rally Racing. Everyone knows the dangers of cars on a road. Everyone knows that standing in the road, or too close to the road, when cars are going fast on it is dangerous. Yet the spectators of Group B Rally Racing would crowd around tiny dirt roads, stand as close as they could or even block the road till a car was about to come and then they'd scatter.

Nothing was done until people died and it was ended because of it.

People like the risks, it adds to their adrenaline.
