tech debt is good, actually
>>107673123it's an asset because laws don't matter anymore.dudes spend money they don't have to buy things they can't use in order to prevent other people from competing with them. this is atleast three lawsuits in a normal world but somehow none of this matter anymore.I would be rich too if laws did not apply to me either...fuck them, altman and jensen deserve 25 to life at the minimum.

TinyWall is a life-changer.I always hated Windows because apps keep spying on you. This fixes it.
>>107673393That's not firewall behavior doe
>>107678717not even remotely the same thing, retard
>>107676467Windows users believe consuming a product is always better than doing the simpler solution
>>107678763>the simpler solution according to /g/: switch to linux, spend days deciding on a distro, days configuring it, days typing commands into terminal, lose the ability to use all the important programs that only work on windows, and still get an inferior experience at the end

Fellow software engineers, what's your plan for the next 5-10 years?I wasn't worried until Sonnet & Opus 4.5 but it genuinely one shots everything I give it. We went from doing 30 story points (team of 4) to 60 per sprint after the release. The writing is on the wall, software engineering will be the first white collar job to be automated.What do we do afterwards?
>>107678494Going to keep programming. Most of the "programmers" are still afraid of math, have bad abstract reasoning (hence afraid of math and have to use python, java, c++ etc), trouble thinking of questions to ask, and have poor reading comprehension. Not worried at all. 60% of americans can't even complete some college. In other words, the vast majority of the population can't learn to program at all. Oh, also, language is mostly used for a method of communication, not for thinking. Have you looked at the university rankings for colleges in India and China compared to the number of people they are graduating?
>>107678494Better start practicing your burger flipping for your new future at McDonald's, chuds. I used AI and create a full functional app and I don't know how a single line of proper code.Lol LMAO
AI is only useful in small self-contained use cases, basically benchmarks. Not real systems with all their associated cruft and ugliness. AI only impresses me when I venture into a new framework/language, because it's confident and seems knowledgeable, but as soon as I learn things I realize that it's retarded. programmers who feel threatened by AI are telling on themselves
>>107679347McDonald's isn't hiring
>>107678494Keep working. Why would I be worried? I actively try to use AI to make my work faster and it mostly goes the other way and takes longer because LLMs are retarded. But ymmv, I'm an actual engineer with an engineering degree not some codeslop boot camp faggot or unemployed autist from /g/

You can take FreeBSD code, build on it, and never give anything back.

Where all is said and done it's a tool, and it will not go away.We need to make our peace with it, but that doesn't mean making peace with how people use it. And right now it's how people are using it that's making others pissed to all hell.Not that I expect AI thumping Jeets or Luddites to understand the nuance.
>>107679283First response isn't even an argument it's just you being retardedSecond is short-sighted as hell, and even if it were true the reasong state was AI. It taking blame for so much shit, and corporations heaping it onto AI as a scapegoat certainly goes a ways to explain why people would hate it.And the last one I'll give you. But the claims of AGI ARE dumb, and more reminiscent of some cult trying to create their tech god.
What if there was an AI that generated memes, and you give feedback on each one, until it generates the perfect meme?
It's not possible to improve on frogs and 'jaks. Memes have already been solved.
>>107678734What if the feedback was also AI-generated?
You're trying to make an AI be objective towards something that's subjective. A fools journey.>>107679350That is the future of the internet after all.
>>107679360You don't understand. The reason why you give feedback is so the AI can personalise these theoretical AI memes for you, the individual. If you don't like (aka object to) a particular meme you can give negative feedback.

>>107678713>The Windows way seems magical until you run into apps that just don't work, in my experience it's a complete crapshoot.If the devs wrote code by the book, it still works. If they wrote something that relies on undefined behavior that happens to work on Windows 95, it's likely broken on modern Windows unless one of the compatibility shims you can enable replicates the behavior it needs.
>>107678713At least Windows compares about backward compatibility. Linux can't run most software from even a decade ago, sad!
>>107678650You can't meaningfully draw or output sound or anything without dynamic linking. Your opengl driver? How you gonna statically link that? Maybe you can static link a pulseaudio client since even pipewire exposes it.
you could just make a C++ program with a webviewtakes like barely anymore ram than a native ui app and you get the same dev ux you get in developing a electron app

What privacy focused alternative to android should I get? Is graphene a safe bet for the long term? I am also retarded and would like to have things kindof just work.

>>107675959One of the big problems with grapheneos/oem android apps is the lack of caller ID. You don't get to see who's calling you/who you're calling. For like 20 years, every one of my android phones has had caller ID, and going without it is becoming close to a deal breaker for me. Case in point: I had to look for a urologist recently, and I had to call into a bunch of doctors offices to see if they accepted my insurance. After the 4th or 5th call, I looked back on my call log in horror as none of them showed who I called, just the phone number. I have no idea who I've already called, I need to Google their phone numbers and loon them up and cross reference based on my call log, then write it down on a piece of paper. For 20 years now, if I were to do the same on a regular android, it'd show the exact names of every doctor's office instead of just their phone number. Only now did I find out that this is a feature of google's proprietary dialer app, and if you don't have it with full permissions enabled, you can't get caller ID. Also, if you ever need to make a phone call to someone who's not on your contacts list, you need to save their info in contacts, or else when you look at your call log you won't know what the fuck you're seeing. Pretty fucked up that this wasn't mentioned on any of the grapheneos tutorials/manuals, kinda feel like I got scammed. >>107679241Didn't they go p2w recently? Fuck em, use organic maps.
>>107679358Think that's fucked up did you know if you opt out of Gmail's AI collection they no longer sort your emails like primary promotion ect, that was a feature long before ai was a thing but one of the many examples of Google being spiteful for not letting them steal your data

Why is it considered unethical to download first and last pieces first?
>>107673437is this usenet news .binaries .part thread?i do not rebember exactly
>>107673437Seems logical to meConsider>1 person has 100% of the data>10 people have 10% of the dataNow consider>10 people all have the same 10%>10 people all have a different 10%
>>107678264this.its basically a case of people thinking they know better than what the system was designed for which is redundancy and robustness
>>107673437I always turn on first and last and sequential if I'm downloading video
>>107673437It's perfectly ethicalJust like seeding to a 0.0 ratio unless there's five people sitting there leeching and you're the only one who has the data, in which case I'll seed for an extended time to make up for my sins against filesharing
