• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shopify CEO tells teams to consider using AI before growing headcount⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  The only thing that matters is creating value for the share-holder (this is how public corporations work). If you can convince the share-holders that AI can perform the job better than executives, they will demand executives and their board of directors be replaced on the spot. Share-holders care about one thing, maximizing profits. They will never favour the average employee as they see them as red numbers on the balance sheet. All the employees need to do is buy up all the shares and they can make this happen. Pretty unlikely scenario unfortunately, but one can dream.

  Open office isn’t getting much in the way of updates these days and is considered dormant and maintained by the Apache foundation. Libre-office is the office suite maintained by the document foundation and is where the bulk of developers moved over to.

  Make sure to not just cancel, but remove your credit card info so they can’t charge your card anyway. Disney+ tried that on me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You should swap your work or gaming monitor for a pair of AR glasses, and I'm not joking⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve a pair of Rokid’s and think the technology isn’t there yet. It’s fuzzy around the edges, making reading difficult and a pain. You want to turn your head to get a better look in order to read, but of course it is stuck in place in front of your face so impossible. It is also uncomfortable to wear longer than ten minutes as it causes impressions on your nose bridge. Not worth the price or pain. Maybe in another ten years i’d look into it again.
