lots of people that voted for trump have punished themselves, having less money due to everything skyrocketing in price or losing their jobs due to trump's policy. Any time they want they can stop hitting themselves in the face.

Actually, IMHO, it is much simpler than that. Republicans have focused on wedge issues and creating conflict making politics more about what side you are on than running the government. Everything is about how something makes the conservative feel. So voting against your own interest so rich people can get richer, because your made about what bathroom some one pees in is how they are getting elected.

When AI was just starting to become popular a co-worker asked me to review code they could not get to work. I took one look and quickly understood that core library functions being used did not exist and that is why the code failed. He had used AI and then did not even go to any trouble to look at the API to verify the code.

trump hates American women or maybe, because he is a pedophile. melana or whatever her name is obviously hates him. How about release the Epstein Files that we know show you raping childen trump?.

I pretty strongly doubt they are saving money. 80% of software in maintenance. So you saved a couple hours creating the initial code and now you have created way more work for yourself in the process rather than just doing it right and having a competent Software Engineer build it. And as well, you have now opened yourself up to risk that the code does something unexpected or has security holes. I expect we will start to see stories about incidence like this with AI code like we did with bottom dollar overseas developers 20 years ago.

I have read that trump would be richer is he did no business his whole life and instead invested into the S&P500. He is a terrible businessman and I have no idea how he had convinced as many idiots as he has that he knows anything.

Violent crime plunged in the 90s and if anything trump is going to start pushing it in the wrong direction. https://www.pewresearch.org/sh... Oh, and that was mostly a plunge in stats during Democratic Presidencies.

A co-worker told me that AI is like working with a jr programmer, who never says no, and constantly lies. AI has no ability to say "I don't know", it will always deliver an answer, because most AI is a neural network, which is just a giant pachinko machine. So whatever AI spits out, you have to be able to have programmed it to know if it is good code or not and fix any flaws. To me this seems exactly like the offshore developer craze in the 80s and 90s. I have worked with lots of very talented overseas developers and they are cheaper, but I don't know how many projects I have been brought into to fix that were built by bottom dollar overseas teams. One literally had a 100 nested if statement instead of using something like recursion. Often we would throw away their code and start over as it was faster to fix. And 80% or more of the time with a software project is maintenance. How are you going to do that with AI spaghetti, because the person who used AI did not really know how to program? That feels exactly like what is going to happen with AI.

I wish people would also understand there is no social in social media. It is content created by users for the main objective to make money and push public opinion. People would treat it a lot differently if they got to see all the metrics the algorithms decide when they suggest something. "engagement", "controversial", etc would take the human face of it. Buy social media and AI try and put a human face on how they work to specifically mask that.

this is why AI cannot just state "I don't know", when it does have a good answer for something. It has not idea what a good answer it, just this is most likely what they user wants.

it is now 1 1/2 years to mid terms. I am hoping it will be a bloodbath for the GOP getting kicked out of seats they have held a long time. If the house flips then it will be gridlock and the final 2 years will be less stupid.

It is even more funny when you realize that AI has no concept if it knows the answer. With some exceptions, it will always try to provide an answer even if it has to make something up.

your only good backup is the one you last tested ... successfully. I worked for a company and a critical database was deleted. We had backups, but management thought it was a waste of time so we never tested them. Well, the incremental backup was bad. Daily backups were bad. Monthly backup was bad. And finally an off site backup from several months ago was finally found good. We tested backups once a quarter after that. It took all of an hour to do it.

There is a reason COBOL programmers go for so much these days. As the mess gets worse there will be a price point that people will change their mind. If you could work for 3 years at $1 million or some other even higher salary I bet most would for period of time.

Maybe the news is Linux is getting soft. Back in my day I would have learned new colorful insults from his code review.
