I always found it funny in the Between Two Ferns bloops when Zach asks that to Brie:
- Comment on Dik Piks 2 weeks ago:
It’s just painting a picture. The story could just as easily been putting together a family dinner and focusing on what everyone’s preferences that you’ve learned over the years. Or something more Lemmy based would be dealing with a production issue as a developer and then BAM dick pic.
It’s just story telling to me.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 3 weeks ago:
apart from not having a car
I think they were implying that if that was not something that was negotiable then you could move onto reducing red meat intake.

I mean, he’s said before that shitty code doesn’t make for a good or bad game. He gave examples of lots of successful games that have “bad” code and that it doesn’t matter and people should just make games.
- Comment on 'I'm being paid to fix issues caused by AI' 4 weeks ago:
One of our coworkers keeps telling us to trust AI.
We’re like, we get to to generate some code but we always check it. The coworker was like, nah you should just trust it. We’re like, why? He said you should just train it until it gets to the state where you want.
We were like, we’re competent in our fields and we wouldn’t want to use anything in production that’s not checked by a human. Even if it wasn’t checked by a human we should have some checks for sure. Not sure why he’s so adamant about not checking anything.

- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 4 weeks ago:
I’m going back to Europe for a few months for a visit. I was looking at other VPNs and they were offering me cheap discounts but I’d have to sign up for 2 years or some shit. Mullvad was very straightforward in their pricing and I was able to generate the VPN config and I have it installed on my travel router really easily.

I think I understand your overall sentiment. Just wanna boot up games and not think about settings, compatibility, framerates and stuff. I know what you mean.

Was funny when they said they needed more original games like Hi Fi rush after firing the people that made Hi Fi rush.
- Comment on Might be time to find another job 5 weeks ago:
I used to drink ten to eleven cups of tea in the UK per day. I quit caffeine for a while because of the headaches. I somehow never put it together that this drug I keep putting into my system would affect my brain …

As an English “whose-a-ma-whats-it”, I feel like a lot of us don’t care much for the monarchy as well. I don’t speak for all obviously. Many of my friends need to keep up with Royal Family drama for some reason.
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 5 weeks ago:
I mean … you don’t have to tell me that my opinion isn’t popular, it’s demonstrable. My opinion is statistically insignificant.
There’s a plethora of other things I’d give up like have a slighter bigger phone or a worse camera or wireless charging… I’d also trade those for an SD card slot but no one agrees with me and it’s just something I need to live with.

I was just hoping a phone like fairphone would give me the option to buy a small module or something to let me do it.
Yes, yes there’s adapters … yes, yes, you don’t need to use it … I understand. I just want it.

I know!!
I really wish it wouldn’t benefit Lex Luthor. If it makes waves, hopefully other similar types of cars will come along by the time my civic needs to be replaced.
- Comment on Tough, Tiny, and Totally Repairable: Inside the Framework 12 1 month ago:
I thought it was further along that a pipe dream with the demos and videos I’ve seen. I think I’m cautiously optimistic until it officially comes out and I see reviews.
It has the modularity I like. We’ll have to see if it can deliver.

Sounds a bit like the Slate truck to me.
- Comment on Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineering 1 month ago:
There’s a good NPR podcast in the same vein as this: www.npr.org/…/episode-779-shrimp-fight-club
It’s about congressman talking about government waste and targeting the sciences. It’s like, you don’t get the “cool” applications without the “weird” research. I’m doing a horrible job describing it, but I thought it was a good listen.

- Comment on Asus and Lenovo’s handhelds get price hike as Valve pauses some Steam Deck sales 1 month ago:
I really want to root for Nintendo but they make it hard.
Opening up my steam library from a console was such a big WTF moment and then being able to suspend games was so mind-blowing.
It’s still not that beefy for triple-A but I’m considering getting GeForce Now running on it.
- Comment on Pull to enter, you say? 1 month ago:
Many years ago, before we automated our deployment, we got our devs to do it manually. The guy that wrote the instructions in bold red letters at the top, put something like “log in as X” and no one would follow. He asked me what to do, I said, “put it as step 1 instead of bold letters at the top”. Never had anyone mess up afterwards. Thank God we automated it though.
Our brains work in weird ways.

I remember a story where he put millions into a mansion over several years and when it was done he wanted to change it.
I’m sure he’s made bank over the years but also sure he’s blown a lot of it.

I think the analogy is a bit crude but quite bang on.
I think it’s a good skill too and I have been clinically diagnosed with anxiety.
