With tech jobs becoming ever more scarce as AI keeps replacing human workers, is trades the better option now?
>>107696110Office work fucks your back too.
>>107695764Yes, it is much more nepotistic. You need to work under a company for many years before you can take licensing exam for general contracting, electrical, plumbing, etc. The issues with low quality and cutting corners you would also find in trades.

Please don't fear AI. There will be Universal High Income to save you from starvation when you can't work anymore. You're going to live forever in an AI utopia and never do boring work again. Elon himself has vouched for this. All your miseries in life will soon come to an end.

>The development comes a little over a year after the tech giant [Google] disclosed that its transition to Rust led to a decline in memory safety vulnerabilities from 223 in 2019 to less than 50 in 2024.>The company pointed out that Rust code requires fewer revisions, necessitating about 20% fewer revisions than their C++ counterparts, and has contributed to a decreased rollback rate, thereby improving overall development throughput.>We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android's C and C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software delivery," Google's Jeff Vander Stoep said. "With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one >With roughly 5 million lines of Rust in the Android platform and one potential memory safety vulnerability found (and fixed pre-release), our estimated vulnerability density for Rust is 0.2 vuln per 1 million lines (MLOC).>Our historical data for C and C++ shows a density of closer to 1,000 memory safety vulnerabilities per MLOC. Our Rust code is currently tracking at a density orders of magnitude lower: a more than 1000x reduction.https://thehackernews.com/2025/11/rust-adoption-drives-android-memory.html

>>107693897>Rust's stdlib is a fucking disaster. You have to rely on crates for shit like complex numbers, no other language I've used requires you to download a crate for complex number support - even fucking libc provides support for thisAgreed, and cargo is a complete clusterfuck just like npm, where installing one package for a small thing pulls in 50 more.rust would almost be a decent language if not for this shit.Also people want to push it for embedded development, yet writing a linked list in Rust is like pulling teeth.
>>107695390> I'm too lazy to use googleThe are at least dozens different approaches to make C safe. And they all work.Some date literally 30 years back.

I am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?We’ve been played for absolute fools.

>>107695758>If a PDF is not digitized>Examples of an analog .pdf?It's only recently made PDFs in the past 10-15 years that are highly digitized with proper Unicode text. The older the PDF, the more likely that it has garbled text somewhere when you try to copy and paste from it. Any degree of text garbling harms search capabilities.Go back a bit further in time and you start to see PDFs that have no highlightable text and searching is impossible. Many PDFs are not text at all. They are just images without any digitization. Nobody applied OCR to them while scanning the books or papers. Old OCR tech is pretty shitty btw. It creates garbled text all over the place. LLMs are our savior for fixing the PDF madness.

Will starting an onlyfans where I fuck exotic animals help me get a job in tech?
>>107678396Haven't posted on /g/ in many years, didn't realize that /twg/ was a general. /int/ is fucking useless. Anyone here is a danish developer OR work at one of the big tech firms who could help me out, that would be much appreciated.The tl;dr is what is a high-end but reasonable salary expectation for a staff sw engineer in Copenhagen at a major big tech company?So for the long version: I'm a Norwegian that's about to receive a job offer for a position in Copenhagen for a major tech company at one of their R&D departments, as a staff software engineer. I already have an extremely comfy job here in Norway that I'm reluctant to give up, relocating is suboptimal since I own a condo here (and ideally would like to keep that/rent it out), 10+ years experience, a solid education, and a decent salary (from a native Norwegian perspective). So the salary needs to be on the high end for me to even consider it, but I have no idea what a decent salary in Denmark looks like. Additionally, I also know little what the cost of living in Copenhagen is or generally how much the rent for a 2BR is.For background/context: I didn't apply for this position at all, a couple of principal engineers there have been following me for some time due to some work I published years ago as part of my PhD, and they've reached out and really wants me to join their team, most likely because the recent AI hyperscaling trend has suddenly made my work go from being a neat solution without a real use-case to having a clear cut use-case and almost a necessity at this point.I checked around on glassdoor a bit, seems to me that the salary range is from 900k-1100k DKK, which to me at least seems a bit low especially considering the friction of relocating to a new country.
