I am so completely unsurprised. You have the stink of academia all over you.

Those who can, do; those who can't, teach.

Someone on /. said it's a bubble and I believed them cause I'm retarded.

I love that as I type this Moscow is burning and Gaza is a pile of rubble that is no longer shooting rockets at my nieces. Frankly they are getting off easy. Russia next.

The open racism on /. is something to behold. Everyday I see the Russians kill Ukrainian children. Sudan openly genociding each other. Rebels in Myanmar being gunned down fighting for their freedom against a a military junta, and Iran literally killing more of their own civilians than the total amount of people that died in the Gaza war and yet Israel is your big bad?

Good one.

Honestly I enjoy how much it triggers you that American Jews have an opinion. Next you'll tell me that we need to get rid of the NAACP.

Ding ding ding. No Palestinian is native to the area. They moved there from Egypt and Jordon when the Jews did for economic reasons. Then when the Jews actually built something they started shit. Tale as old as time.

Don't bother. Drinkypoo is a racist that loves talking down to Jews about their own culture.

I mean. It objectively is. Every tweet on there is a sub thread so inevitably there's threads with hundreds of replies. This happens millions of times per day. So what is /. compared to that? I mean you've got like maybe a few threads a day at best. Maybe one hit topic will get like 500 comments. Rare these days. Even then doesn't matter. There's like 10 dudes on here arguing with each other all day.

Meh just use an LLM. I've been enjoying using them for C projects. It's fun as fuck not having to sit there and actual type out an entire event bus from scratch. I just tell it what I want and skim the code.

Oh please. The EU is STILL buying shit from Russian even as I type this. Suggesting this about the US after we just hosted The World Cup is laughable.

A couple /. nerds will bitch and moan but ya'll don't go outside anyway.

This was always the case. No one owes me a tech job. Evolve or die.

We had a video on demand service for transcoding and hosting our videos. It basically did eager processing for uploaded videos. Cost was millions annually. Replaced with like three engineers working on it for three months. Now it's all in-house.

Richer than ever and getting richer. No one cares about a few disgruntled commies.

It's almost like you can literally buy yourself a retirement with simple 401k contributions better than anything any socialist state can give you in half the time that you'd be forced to work for the state in said country.

Hate to break it to you but my orgs entire AI budget paid for itself in several ways. First we used it to cut waste in hosting which saved 50% of the total cost of the AI systems in devops costs. We then proceeded to wholesale replace several major vendors that were billing us millions for their services. We actually saved money on AI and it's actually getting cheaper because at the start we kinda went willy nilly with it but now we're being more judicious when applying it. In any case there's no bubble. That's just what scrubs say to cope. If there was really a bubble I wouldn't be getting rate limited constantly.

Social safety net they said. Pay higher taxes they said. I'm over here saving your entire post tax salary annually. Demand in the states is still massive. Maybe not for a "designer" but certainly for coders that work with AI well.
