That’s the shape those early phones had. The back was curved until the iPhone 4. Now they are all flat backed.

Tell me you don’t have children without telling me you don’t have children.

It can vary but being needed is a common one. The feeling that they are helping hold the NPD’s life together.

There is also a reason this person is willing to put up with it. A neurotypical doesn’t trying to understand and forgive the behavior, they just find other neurotypical people to hang out with.

Orbiters of a narcissists, fuel the disease and gain their own validation by being someone else’s fuel. That doesn’t make it healthy.

Or are willing to acknowledge.

You should have bought a squirrel.

Has he actually said he’d pardon anyone but himself?

I don’t anticipate him doing anything that doesn’t benefit himself based on his previous behavior.

Being born in the same town means there is a high chance of it being a relative of the girl and her grandmother.

Microsoft and Nvidia are investing but they are both positioned to gain a return on investment by cloud hosting and hardware sales respectively.

Apple dropping out indicates they saw behind the curtain, did the math and realized they can create their own platform for less.

There is no path to profitability for them. Unlike other recent billion dollar tech companies there are no human workers to squeeze. Hardware doesn’t work for less than minimum wattage.

Just a moment. Need to find the tweezers and magnifying glass.

“Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.”

I assure you, I put no effort into being an internet fuckwad.

It would be easier to record than upload. Since upload requires at least a decode steps. Given the fleeting nature of existence how does one confirm the decoding? This also requires we create a simulated brain, which seems more difficult and resource intensive than forming a new biological brain remotely connected to your nervous system inputs.

Recording all inputs in real time and play them back across a blank nervous system will create an active copy. The inputs can be saved so they can be played back later in case of clone failure. As long as the inputs are record until the moment of death, the copy will be you minus the death so you wouldn’t be aware you’re a copy. Attach it to fresh body and off you go.

Failure mode would take your literal lifetime to reform your consciousness but what’s a couple decades to an immortal.

We already have the program to create new brains. It’s in our DNA. A true senior developer knows better than to try and replicate black box code that’s been executing fine. We don’t even understand consciousness enough to pretend we’re going to add new features so why waste the effort creating a parallel system of a black box.

Scheduled reboots of a black box system is common practice. Why pretend we’re capable of skipping steps.

I agree.

One can’t claim to love programming while calling the act of writing code being a code monkey. Whatever they actually love about the process may not exist in the industry.

I would suggest they explore alternative roles and perhaps alternative industries. They sound like they are new to the industry so their ability to land a senior role is likely to lead to different disappointments.

The best way to do something, often isn’t the best way to implement something. That’s why this is a senior role. The author does not appear to understand this concept and will be horribly disappointed when their perfect architecture is ignored by the realities of development.

And you’re obsessed with giant cocks. This is very interesting. A therapist could write a book on you.

Hating an operating system such that someone wouldn’t use it in exchange for a million dollars is quite the flex.

Congratulations! You’ve leveled up in the game of life.

Unfortunately much of the world feels entitled to the labor of others and refuses to acknowledge the mental gymnastics we accept as a society.

One has to look no further than the way we treat food service employees. People demand to be served. They feel they are entitled to their basic human needs being serviced while blaming those servicing them for being under valued.

It’s sick and twisted; our society is mentally ill.

Same. I’ve had several refunds. No request to return. Just full money back.

I don’t think people recognize how often a purchase made to Amazon or some similar seller platform is actually coming straight from China; always with a 2x or more mark up.

I’ve taken to always searching on ali to see if I can get the same thing for 1/10 the price. They don’t try to hide the shipping information like Amazon does. Where as Amazon won’t report anything until it’s in country and passed customs.
