  If it’s making commits for you you’re vibe coding.

  I use it at work, I use it for troubleshooting and if I get it to generate anything for me, I stage them and review them before committing myself

  They’re probably getting their monthly salary but that 50k bonus requires 5 years “service” so they’ll all be out of a job before then

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10+ year manager named Joe was apparently fired for bringing cookies to be thrown away before their sell by date to a food pantry in my town⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A manager doesn’t have discretion to dispose of out of date stock in any other way than putting it in the bin?

  Why would you even have the position of Manager then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'What a great way to kill your community': Discord users are furious about its new age verification checks — and are now hunting for alternatives⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You went to a school where they had no controls over what you could and couldn’t access?

  My school was blocking harmful content on their computers when i was there in the mid to late 2000s?

  When i got home i had something called CyberSitter on my computer in my room that sent logs of all my internet usage as reports to my dad.

  It took me until 16 when i went out and bought my own computer with my own money before i had “unfettered” access to the internet.

  Were these tools impenetrable fortresses? no, of course not. but they were a damn sight better than the ISP level blocks and legislating the “good” companies out of existence that the UK (and others) Government is currently engaged in.

  Not that any of this is really about “protecting kids” anyway

  Not a lot of atmosphere on the moon.

  Transmitting heat across distances in effectively a vacuum doesn’t work too well.

  Just look a the size of the radiators the ISS has to have, and they’re not even sending heat anywhere in particular, that’s just getting it off station

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘There isn’t really another choice:’ Signal chief explains why the encrypted messenger relies on AWS⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a big exodus to signal for a while a couple years ago when meta were fucking with their whatsapp privacy policy, similar to the exodus from reddit to lemmy.

  Having your infrastructure on a cloud provider allows you to keep your costs in line with your current amount of users, if you have a big influx you can immediately scale up to accommodate them, and then when that spike in users dies off as they invariably do you can scale back down instead of being left with a load of hardware you’ve just bought for your new users and now aren’t using>
