  • Human nature dictates we do things before we discuss if we should do things.

    To me it starts getting into a philosophical discussion but unfortunately I don’t think as a species we are mature enough yet to have these discussions.

    A good real world example of this is in Canada the separation movement by Quebec vs. Alberta. In Quebec there have been years of open public discussion before they ultimately took a vote. They were painfully away of all the nuance that came from leaving Canada. They did it right to a large extent. Compare that to Daniella Smith in Alberta and she’s hammering through the mechanisms for a vote to happen meanwhile the public has absolutely no understanding of the ramifications of if they do vote to leave Canada. They’re doing it wrong.

    Human nature by default seems to want to change the front tyre while doing 120 on the highway. This needs to change.



  • I don’t use apple for the same reason I don’t use fisher price as an adult. You are free to use your technology made for babies that’s beside the point. The point is that the article in discussion is about Tim Cook and Apple providing a recent bribe to Trump.

    Your comment is providing no value. You are attempting whataboutism and really shows the type of person you are more than anything.

    To be clear, if googl was caught bribing and someone said “buh buh buh Apple!” Id be saying the same thing. Stop sucking dick like they owe you something to take a side.

    When Google bribes Trump with a 24k gold gift let’s discuss Google then ok?









  • I bet it slows down the idiot software developers more than anything.

    Everything can be broken into smaller easily defined chunks and for that AI is amazing.

    Give me a function in Python that if I provide it a string of XYZ it will provide me an array of ABC.

    The trick is knowing how it fits in your larger codebase. That’s where your developer skill is. It’s no different now than it was when coding was offshored to India. We replaced Ravinder with ChatGPT.

    Edit - what I hate about AI is the blatant lying. I asked it for some ServiceNow code Friday and it told me to use the sys_audit_report table which doesn’t exist. I told it so and then it gave me the sys_audit table.

    The future will be those who are smart enough to know when AI is lying and know how to fix it when it is. Ideally you are using AI for code you can do, you just don’t want to. At least that’s my experience. In that, it’s invaluable.

    I’ve never investigated for iPhones but would be curious

    1. if they exist
    2. how bloody hard they are to get going

    I can only speak for laptops/desktops and it being a bitch.

    There’s a reason I’m very adamant at hating Apple for a multitude of technical reasons. This is but one of them. It’s a shame too because their build quality is really S-Tier.
