  Give your balls a tug. Buying an air fryer that requires an internet connection makes you an idiot, not a victim of capitalism.

  Much more likely he’ll get paid leave to deal with the “trauma” of the negative attention he’ll get.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hell⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nine times out of ten it’s the second one. I don’t mind being a sounding board for some people, but so many sloppy thinkers just don’t understand and don’t want to make the effort.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I too think in absolutes. Either you’re a Christian or a devil worshipper.

  Either you’re with us, or you’re with the terrorists.

  Wow, life got much easier when I eliminated nuance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, but I don’t think telling them so is a productive avenue for conversation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No you won’t read the comments?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had the same experience. Or if you do hear about it, it’s reluctant and only in relation to how it affects women.

  I’m fine with women having their own advocacy group, I don’t think they’re equipped to take on men too.

  It’s an attempt to set it up to compete with pride for June.

  That sounds very paranoid.

  there is no argument that men’s health isn’t important

  Read the comments in this very thread.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gemini will now automatically summarize your long emails unless you opt out⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If mine could do that “find me the approval email for x last week” I’d use it, but if outlook had a decent search I wouldn’t need it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨$80 for Borderlands 4 too costly? Randy Pitchford says, "If you're a real fan, you'll find a way to make it happen"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Games have been surprisingly inflation resistant. I paid $70 for Playstation games in the 90s.

  New copypasta just dropped everyone!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Happy Easter from the POTUS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I would have checked that, but it’s all too plausible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is real⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You have to wonder if this whole thing is just a petty attempt at retribution by Trump, because this guy was allowed to stay in the country the first time.

  I think it’s simpler than that. Bringing him back would show they did something wrong, and that’s obviously impossible, because he’s the second coming of Prosperity Gospel Jesus.

  100%, we’re doing human and automated reviews on the code changes, and the code explanation is just the first step of several.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides”⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  you have to be there when the code was written and went through the various iterations.

  Well, we don’t have that. We’re mostly dealing with other people’s mistakes and tech debt. We have messy things like nested stored procedures.

  If all we get is some high level documentation of how components interact I’m happy. From there we can start splitting off the useful chunks for human review.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides”⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m in software and we’re experimenting with using it for certain kinds of development work, especially simpler things like fixing identified vulnerabilities.

  We also have a pilot started to see if one can explain and document an old code base no one knows anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Art of the Deal⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard that. I’m not sure if he’s that organized. It’s just so all over the place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services proposes to review social media of people applying for US citizenship, green cards, and asylum or refugee status, to comply with Trump's Executive order.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think there’s such a thing as an unbiased AI. They’re all biased based on the input data.

  Something like this would be inherently subjective, it’s not a pure data question with a clear yes or no.
