... But how big is that survey sample size, and who didn't respond?

Basically the survey can only look at those people who bothered to respond to the survey, and it's tough to say how big the sample pool size is/was, compared to the real count of developers. Sort of a self-selection bias.

I'm aiming along the lines of the survey being skewed towards those already using (or needing to use) AI in their workflow, vs the hidden majority(?) that AI isn't either applicable, or don't want to bother answering the questions.

Why do I have a craving for microwaved hard boiled eggs now?

After we turn socialist overnight what then?

The joke is that those who are afraid of "turning socialist" are completely ignorant of what socialism actually is, let alone characteristics of other political/socioeconomic philosophies. In their world of alternative facts, all they know is a cartoon beatbox version of socialism, where no one owns anything and the government takes away everyone's freedom to do whatever you want.

It is not possible to have a rational constructive discussion with folks who don't care about facts and who do not care to learn said facts. "Biden hates America" and "Obama was born in Kenya" are opinions that are neither based in reality nor serious.

"Trump said he was going to build a border wall and make Mexico pay for it. He didn't do either" is based upon facts and reality.

One of my younger siblings got it at work and infected their immediate family (spouse, kids). Our elderly mom (who suffers from a number of respiratory ailments) missed getting it by one day: she normally wouldve had dinner at their house the day after their symptoms manifested. It wouldve have most certainly killed her.

Having seen what they went through—COVID isnt “just a flu”; whoever says is lying or galactically stupid—I have zero empathy for anyone who isnt taking this seriously, whether through ignorance or willing delusion.

You want to go to CES or any other large gathering? Please proceed.

You want to ignore the threat because Fox “News” says it is overblown, a liberal plot, or a False Flag? Please proceed.

You want to “reopen the economy” because you want to be able to go to the bar for a pint? Please proceed.

I will not gloat if you get it. I will not have any sympathy, either.

Also I wrote a song called Caves of Steel.

Hey! I was thinking about you but had no way to get in touch. Ping me somehow!

Sorry I’ll do better next time my bad

I don’t know if she did, and don’t care. She was great and we were sad to see her go.

I left because the company was bought, and the new owners laid off some of its more expensive long-tenured employees, since they were putting the site effectively into maintenance mode, trying to sell if off. They just wanted to keep ThinkGeek and didn’t care to improve the other properties. I was forced out, but I was there a long time, and it was good for me to move on when I did.

So you did not read the story. OK.

So the text contradicts the headline: it is not about climate change, but about criticizing the company in public.

This is a fake news headline. Please fix it.

(I worked with Maren briefly. She was great to work with. I also worked at Slashdot for many years, and this headline is trash.)

A true believer in ... what?

No, it is not related to capitalism. Many Marxists share the view I am espousing, in fact.
