Re:The AI Situation in Software Development on Saturday August 15, 2026 @12:31PM (#49311940)
Coding with AI has now introduced feature dopamine. At times this results in the system being prone to more failures because AI may have missed edge cases. Also i am experiencing a decline in job satisfaction and i'm more prone to procrastination because I know the agents will do the work 10x faster than me. I am personally worried about this shift and I fear becoming less knowledgeable over time or not feeling the need to keeping up with new tech stack as agents do the work.
Here's what Chat GPT came up with:

#include <stdio.h> #define o putchar #define p main #define q(a) return a; #define r ) { #define s { #define t for #define u if #define v else #define w while

char x="a partridge in a pear tree.\ntwo turtle doves\nand three french hens, four calling birds, five gold rings;\nsix geese a-laying, seven swans a-swimming,\neight maids a-milking, nine ladies dancing, ten lords a-leaping,\neleven pipers piping, twelve drummers drumming, "; char y[]={"first", "second", "third", "fourth", "fifth", "sixth", "seventh", "eigth", "ninth", "tenth", "eleventh", "twelfth"};

int p() s int i=0, j, k, l; t(;i<12;i++) s printf("On the %s day of Christmas my true love gave to me\n", y[i]); j=0, k=0, l=0; t(;x[j];j++) s u(x[j]==' ' && (l==i || (l<i && x[j+1]=='\n'))) s u(!k)r k=1; o('and '); } v u(x[j]!='\n')r o(x[j]); } v r k=0; l++; } } o('\n'); } q(0) }

As an enhancement to the website it’ll be cool to see how earth might look in future based on the movements so far.

What if the maze was built in vacuum and the experiment is performed in vacuum. There will not be any air pockets and water will try all routes? (Might have to try with a different liquid though as water will immediately boil in vacuum)

“dog” didn’t work the first time i searched. Showed me movies. So I believe google’s personalized search results is the culprit. Searching for “dog animal” works as mentioned by another post. Now “dog” works too.

Man creates internet.

Internet helps man.

Man creates spam.

Spam destroys internet.

Spam destroys man.

Spam rules the world.

The term valuable is subjective. What really matters is whether you are happy in whatever you’re doing. People who make good money in trading are mostly going to spend some too somewhere which indirectly puts food on table for others.
The issue was first noticed by the aircraft regarding the weight difference. So i guess, they have to report an issue to drill down the root cause. This is because several things could be the root cause. It could also have been possible that the weighing scale (i don't know the technical term) of the plane was faulty. Point being they need to report it as an issue. But i didn't see anywhere in the report that it mentioned airline manufacture was at fault? It concludes that the IT system used by the operator was at fault.
Re:WhatsApp loses millions of users after terms update on Sunday January 24, 2021 @11:42PM (#25899248)
> Signal has gained 7.5 million users globally

It does not mean they use Signal. Because of the bubble, many of my friends have installed Signal, including myself, but continue to use Whatsapp. I personally use whatsapp only for very close people and I don’t want to break the chat history so switching to any other app is a bit disconcerting.

Re:Why Working from Home Will Stick [pdf] on Saturday January 23, 2021 @06:24PM (#25887079)
Work from home for people living by themselves away from family (separated by countries) gets depressing and will most likely impact productivity at work.
Re:Apple's MacBook revival plan: Bring back old features on Sunday January 17, 2021 @09:01AM (#25810685)
I still use my 2015 MacBook Pro. Built in hdmi port, card reader, USB ports, MagSafe charging.
Hope the two random phone calls are video calls and not just audio. Otherwise people would leave the phone with someone at home to answer for them.

“I already recently lost them once when I switched from Android to iOS”

I have used drfone software on computer (mac) to transfer whatsapp data from android to iphone. It is a solid software with clear instructions.
