Because I've tried using LLMs to generate code and I've seen the results. They are not usable. They *resemble* valid code, but they typically throw exceptions and raise errors, they can't pass unit tests, and they don't correctly handle edge cases. AI-generated code is a mess that *superficially looks right* but isn't fit to purpose.

There is a meme going around about the fact that you can tackle a normal coding task by spending 3 hours to write code and 1 hour to debug and test it, or you can use CoPilot to spend 15 minutes to write the code and 8 hours to debug and test it. That matches my experience.

I used to screen scrape jail registry records for county jails in my home area. Though the IDs weren't exactly sequential, doing groups of 50 would get hits for two of the local counties.

What I found was that, while the website UI wouldn't show juvenile records, you could access them directly w/the ID. Surfacing it to the county took a day or so to find the right person but they quickly closed that hole, but who knows how many records were handed out to malicious actors over the years before I found it.

There is no universally accepted definition for SUV, particularly across country boundaries. The only real differentiator seems to be available 4-wheel drive. Assuming the Ioniq 5 is the AWD versions and not the RWD ones, I guess it fits the most basic definition.

In my experience, PIPs are NEVER intended to be a tool to help you; they're intended to help the company find reasons to fire you.

Use the 90 days to find a new job; not try and pass the arbitrary/impossible to meet requirements.

Plus, once you've been put on a PIP, do you really want to continue working for a company that was literally trying to create documentation to fire you?

No; you don't.

My ex-wife stole ~$300K from me preparing for a divorce. It was up to me, the person who made the money, not the person who pfilered it, to prove she did so and it would have cost at least 1/3 of the money and the likelihood I could prove to the court it had been done, even though it was blatantly obvious what she did to be near 0.

The legal system is absolutely fucked and it needs to be changed.

I honestly want someone from Apple to explain to me why Chinese knockoffs smart watches allow notifications to go to my phone and my watch simultaneously as well as last >10 days on a charge, yet my supposedly superior Apple Watch (at 4x the cost) lasts barely a day and doesnâ(TM)t allow for this.

The only reason I use the Apple Watch instead is because my cheap Chinese knockoff for $27 didnâ(TM)t track swimming.

Ridiculous.

You havenâ(TM)t been online dating have you? Believe me, women are incredibly choosy, even if they have no ability to realistically be so.

Iâ(TM)ll never get married again. Iâ(TM)m paying out a significant amount in alimony, child support, lost my house, incurred significant debt due to my ex stealing and hiding assets in preparation for divorce, lost 70K in legal fees to no positive outcome, have no cash while she will be flush with it from QRDOs.

Who the fuck thinks they should ever do this shit again? Seriously; why?

I found my most recent three jobs on LI; it *had* been a great place for finding new places to work. In the meantime, however, particularly after the MSFT takeover, it has been absolutely insufferable to use. The ads have gone up, the quality of postings have apparently gone down, and the qualIty of job listings have as well.

I found that if you unfollow EVERYONE in your contacts, it doesn't show ANYTHING to you, especially ads, but you still have access to find jobs--if they exist (I am not looking).

I have no issue with it taking a reasonable time. But this complaint is now decades old. They've had government handouts to provide better rural access based on fees for the entirety of the century so far IIRC or close enough.
And we've been paying the fees for that long. So if that money hasn't been used for what I paid for I want it back.

Guess you never spent time programming the //e or older ][ and ][+. Seriously, you think the gs was slow? Compared to what I started with in college (the //e), the gs was rocking.

Always amazing how people think they're the first generation to deal with or discover things or face issues and have no clue what things were like before them.

I didn't get anything banned, but I left for similar reasons. I think they were going with cheap mods who probably had poor English skills (because they were from whatever country where labor was cheapest by the hour). But in many ways my issue was the opposite: The answers that were getting in the newsletter and getting all the attention and were not getting banned were the ones giving advice that would get people evicted, arrested, or just in court because it would make it easy for the landlord to sue to them or for tenants to sue them as a landlord.

That's been going on for years. It was a problem back when I was active and one of many reasons I left, even though I was a Top Writer (or whatever that title is) in one category. Top Writer? Yeah, still meant not getting much in terms of newsletter mentions when compared to the people giving answers that, if followed, would land people in court, or jail, or out on the street when evicted.

The vast majority of the ones I saw like that were political or dealing with anti-vax or other conspiracy theories.

At one time you could go to Quora for good answers and intelligent discussion on those answers. It's been a good while since that was the case. They've been pushing popular or flame-bait answers for a good while over factual or quality answers. I used to work as a landlord and would work hard to write good answers to questions so I could actually help people. I got thanked for them, but the answers to similar questions that kept showing in my feed, ones that were getting all the views and reactions, were usually inaccurate and often even advised people to do things that they could get sued or sent to jail for. I'd report inaccurate answers or bad advice that could get some arrested for larceny or worse and nothing happened.

Quora hasn't been about answers or helping people or exchanging information for at least several years. If it goes tango-uniform and the bigshots behind it lose their stock equity and get loans called in and lose houses and yachts, it's nothing more than poetic justice.

An interesting take, to be sure. I don't see it, at all, but maybe others will. https://www.youtube.com/live/U...
