They removed right alt and context menu for this useless bullshit, and it's hard wired to send a weird three key combination so that you can't even rebind it to right-ctrl properly.
It's such a dumb hack, doesn't Microsoft have any competent engineers anymore?

I legitimately can not discern the difference between 128kbps audio and anything higher bitrate. For years I've seen anons argue about 320kbps, FLAC, WAV, and so forth. But honest to God, the difference to my ears is near imperceptible. I listen to headphones for 8+ hours every day, and even I can't tell the difference. Sure my equipment is not top-tier, but I doubt that explains it.

For my favorite music, I can just about tell the difference between 128kbps and 320kbps. Like if I really try hard. But anything above that.. forget it. I really feel people are lying when they claim they are able to hear nuances beyond 320kbps. I believe higher than 320kbps is hardcore placebo-tier and people who hoard FLACs are raping their limited storage capacity for no reason.

What do you think? Is the audiophile culture plagued by lying cocksuckers, or do some people have golden ears?

MP3 compression causes an unpleasant high frequency in its output. WAV generates a polite output. FLAC should replace MP3 because it sounds awful.

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?

Going 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?

AI is only useful in small self-contained use cases, basically benchmarks. Not real systems with all their associated cruft and ugliness.

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.

>>107679360
You 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.

>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.

Dear Laurie,

I am 6+ ft tall, 6+ inches dick, and make 6+ figures. this puts me in 90th percentile of men, which I dont consider too impressive on it's own, but one rare attribute I have is a near zero minute refractory period. this is essentially unheard of in the real world, and means I can have sex again almost immediately after cumming. no more sad nights with pathetic men who cant keep it up or keep themselves from cumming instantly (though, with you, i probably would too) i can keep going and going until you are fully satisfied each and every night.

you know how to find me

One 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.
