As someone who has reached various stages of self-congruence in their life (most recently this month) more people would benefit from understanding that deep down we are all hypocrits in some way or another. That does not make us bad people, but ignoring it prevents us from growing.

Anecdotally but you’re not wrong. Everyone talks a talk not many do. That’s irrespective of political beliefs.

Yes. Pwd change should only be on evidence of compromise assuming you have made a secure password.

Security is all theatre. When NIST says make secure passwords and never change them but your fortune 500 infosec policy tells you to rotate your password every 30 days?

LOL

I have win11 on a work surface laptop pro with 16gb and I’m consistently at 15+GB used. This is corporate bloat. How do I know? I have a personal surface pro 6 with win11 and 16gb and it runs like a breeze.

Corporate bloat is such bullshit.

See and I disagree. Musk is a piece of shit yes but he’s merely playing the game better for a large variety of reasons.

My point being, the game is not the problem. The problem is assholes. This happens in capitalism. It happens in communism. It happens everywhere. The problem is not the system the problem is assholes.

Adam Smith would be rolling in his grave if he saw what became of capitalism.

To be young again 🤣

Don’t hate the player hate the game

At what point was I defending the system? I make damn good money playing the game and I do my best to lift those around me.

But the system is rigged and I have neither the time or capacity to fix it just like everyone else. It will have to get a lot worse before it gets better.

But to think that you can just airdrop into a different system and not participate in the on youre in? I stand by what I said. Fincel. There i coined the term.

Like we have a choice with society. I love calling peers bootlickers because they are trying to survive and possibly having more success than you.

Hate the game not the player. What’s the economic equivalent of an incel?

A fun reminder that during the pandemic, before AI, there was a backlog in new cars because all the crucial chips were unavailable due to an increase in bullshit like wifi enabled toasters.

It has nothing to do with AI. Consumers are asking for this shit and companies are delivering.

I hear you need help with how to fuck yourself.

The other angle is the majority of Devs are just… Not good…

A good Dev in the situation you mention will design the solution needed now not the one you hope for later.

I’m saying this as someone who has been mired in scope creep and over engineering solutions many times in my life because “what if 5000 people need to use it at once?!”

In most cases all you need is a database, a single thread and a simple API. Build it and then as the problems come grow with them. Try to take into account issues of scale but realize you can’t and shouldn’t solve every scenario because there are too many variables which may never exist.
