I also sort of blame it on the social media culture of being “constantly connected.” In some workplace cultures, (especially outside the dev space), not being constantly visible and grinning is the same as not consistently posting happy updates on your feed and consuming them.
I remember in my last job we had an “open office” plan after buying and renovating a huge space, and I found a niche little area to set up my desk without people staring at me and when people came to ask me questions they would say shit like “oh so this is where you’re hiding!”
Yes, on company property in the main workroom seated at my company desk using my company computer.
Thankfully my new job is fully remote, so fuck all that weird social noise when at the end of the day I’m just whoring my brain and fingers out so I can pay my rent and buy groceries

lol my guess is like 70% of people in the us don’t know what acetaminophen or paracetamol are, so Tylenol could just come out with Lonelyt Extra Stength and bam, sales

Just wait till they hear what big pharma is doing with paracetamol

Yeah especially because countries like Switzerland and New Zealand have banned the practice.

- Comment on User "threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works" is banning users for downvoting his posts. 1 month ago:
Perhaps for some posts / comments. But definitely not for all of them. Votes can often be more useful than just feel good or feel bad. Very busy posts often have hundreds of comments.while certainly silly memes and the like may get upvoted there, often relevant or helpful comments do too, with unhelpful or toxic comments generally getting downvoted. Without that system in place I would have to scroll through those hundreds of comments just to find relevant or helpful info instead of not being at the top because the community provided feedback.

Sort of the point though. If they take a small creator to court, they can just bankrupt them through expensive legal proceedings, and because they do have the patents the judge is unlikely to throw the case out

Either that or it will secretly fund gang activity or drug smuggling or something so that it can “catch the bad guys” and secure more lucrative government contracts

Yeah this is awesome for esoteric game preservation. Hopefully in the future someone builds an iPod emulator specifically that can open these files so they can be played without the original hardware

Nah this definitely started with AI and then was photoshopped from there. Most likely most of the text in the prompt collapsed like this so they manually edited, but you can’t do this in photoshop without more work than what AI will spit out

- Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs 1 month ago:
TV and movies I’m totally good with 1080p. If I want a cinematic experience, that’s what the cinema is for.
But since switching to PC and gaming in 4k everywhere I can, it feels like a night and day difference to play in 1080p. Granted that means I care about monitor resolution rather than TV resolution.
But as an aside, as a software engineer that works from home, crisp text, decent color spectrum support, good brightness in a bright room, all things that make your day a whole lot better when you stare at a computer screen for a large chunk of your day
