make the "washing machine" a bucket with a robotic arm that you can put in any bathtub

it's because software fundamentally has specific, measurable outcomes. it has to, that's why we build things: to do things. and in computing, necessarily, the things you do can be computed, which means they can be checked for correctness and reproducibility

much of an SWE's role is to artfully construct complex abstractions of reality in such a way that it can be understood by others, with the intent that it can be fixed or improved on in the future.

but if you don't _need_ artful construction in the first place, because you can just brute force AI slopped assembly language that's impossible (for MeatI) to comprehend, and the same AI is sufficient at improving and fixing it, then why do you need an SWE to bring artfulness to the table for you?

we're a long way off from this, ultimately, but imho, this is the broad strokes of it

if history doesn't repeat, but it rhymes

does vibe coding rhyme with eternal september?

whoops! we accidentally democratic socialismed

on behalf of the rest of the world: fuck you guys

Surely it's the Anunnaki taking a hail mary approach to their colossal atmospheric gold project

I'm weary of seeing people use weary when they mean wary

> Prototaxites did not contain chitin, a major building block of fungal cell walls and a hallmark of the fungal kingdom. The Prototaxites fossils instead appeared to contain chemicals similar to lignin, which is found in the wood and bark of plants. ... best considered a member of a previously undescribed, entirely extinct group of eukaryotes

So these are the ancestors of Groot? or Ents? and all manner of "animated trees"?

won't this result in millionaires losing jobs?

lol'd so hard at this

i think it's "toe the line" ie, put your foot right where they told you to, follow rules rigidly

Perfect headline for Not The Onion

that's not true at all. bitcoin is priced in dollars, and the value of the dollar changes, therefore the value of bitcoin changes. some people have dollars that they got more cheaply (through loans with lower interest rates) than others, and they're trading those.

economy is never a zero-sum game, because we're never all playing from the same positions of value

Probably don't want to help you "solve" this "problem" but, as we age, our liver produces fewer enzymes that help to process alcohol and the impurities found in liquors. Rehabilitate your liver and drink like you're young again. One method I stumbled upon with a bout of non-alcohol-induced liver function reduction involved taking turkey tail mushroom supplements

doesn't like inflation but wants deflationary currency to "end badly"

that's rough, bud.

Kimchi Concedes as Collateral Casualty while Climate Changes Cascade Continually

Cabbages.

if wear and tear occurs or your ram fills up, you buy a new machine. simple

(and i absolutely understand that ram is temporary memory)

just this headline made me say whoa

>the Guild proposed a ban on scented products in break rooms, unlimited sick time, and accommodations for pet bereavement, as well as mandatory trigger warnings in company meetings discussing events in the news.

these don't seem at all outlandish, not remotely illegal, and I would go so far as to say that they're great ideas

Tinfoil theory: Matt is actually paid by or invested in Silver Lake/WPE and using his position to tank the foundation on their behalf. Then WPE is actually king WP, and a new OSS foundation must rise from the ashes and they'll be there as trusted, responsible party to select the leaders

I admit, this is pretty far-fetched, and I don't even believe it, but I'd say the same thing about the whole affair

but why does chronic giardiasis present as or produce gluten sensitivity?

why don't I just collect the money and filter the emails to spam?

why don't we all do that?

I'm one! thanks!

It goes farther up the chain, it's actually the fungi's plan

That 6 year old has been through more and knows more about strength and life than you do. Learn from him, from all of them. What they are low on is hope and joy, bring it and share it with them. Leave your pity and unease at home

I did this in my final days at an agency. Built a db search backend to drive a product query UI for a client. 10 years later I randomly met somebody that worked for the client and they were still using it. Kinda cool, actually.

Sometimes you plant a seed and watch it wither, sometimes you walk away and return to a tree. Moral of the story? Just plant seeds

well its gonna have to exist and do damage before we can regulate it. c'est la capitalisme
