If coding actually does get replaced by AI it's gonna be super ugly The last 30-40 years appear to have been a gradually intensifying "revenge of the nerds" fever dream, and non-techies really did not enjoy watching these people make 250k/yr remotely without degrees I predict low levels of sympathy in the case of mass coder layoffs

i think its a little sad to watch all these people who took pride in the art of programming slowly die away as they realize bit by bit that its actually over

@trikcode But also, startup gets big. "We don't need Kubernetes, we should just write bash scripts to manage these 70 services running across 4 regions" "What about DNS updates?" "Bash scripts" "ELB updates?" "Bash scripts" "Secrets management?" "Bash scripts" "Node updates?" "Never"

Life as startup founders! "Should we use Kubernetes?" "Do we need Kubernetes?" "I don't know but Netflix uses it." "We have 12 users." "Yeah but what about when we scale?" "Fine. Add it." 3 months later: $47,000 AWS bill. Still 12 users. 6 months later: "Maybe we should simplify the architecture." The CTO who pushed for Kubernetes has already left for another startup.

You need to date a bi-sexual girl at least once in your life. High sex drive, appreciate the female form, will fuck girls with you. There’s really no downside.

@FWPlayboy I have 3 of them moving into my crib the last weekend of this month. I met them a decade ago and they are over clown world dating. We used to joke about doing this, but the timing is great.

I will not send you guys DMs; I will make it public. My family has been planning this vacation for over 9 months. We paid for our suite on the cruise for a family of 5, totaling upwards of $7,000. We are supposed to arrive at the harbor by 2 p.m., with the ship sailing at 4. We booked a super-early flight that cost a little over $1,400, and I paid $240 for extra luggage. For this vacation, my wife and I cleared our calendars, with a running cost of at least $30,000 for the whole week. Last night we tried to check in but realized the flight was overbooked, and even after checking in, we weren’t assigned seat numbers. I also paid $80 for remote parking at DFW for 6 days, just for convenience. We told my wife we had to get to the airport. Our flight was at 6:30 a.m., so we left home at 3:30 a.m. and arrived before 5 a.m. The first attendant told us there weren’t enough flight attendants, so the flight was cancelled. We spoke to another one, who said it was a weather issue in Miami. What I know is that the flight went to Miami, but because it was overbooked, they randomly cancelled some passengers. What upsets me most is that my wife warned me about this airline. Also, my son is supposed to turn 9 on Wednesday, all of that is gone. Royal Caribbean did not refund our money. My children’s spring break and my son’s birthday have been ruined just because we booked with Spirit Airlines.

@ekun_II We're sorry this has been your experience. It's not what we aim for! Send us a DM, and we'd be happy to help out.

@RedPillRabbit Yes, 100%. I know first hand it's all sycophants and "saars." Worst yet, many are now the L7s doing the service design reviews and PRs.

@stephenehorn If a US university can't train the workforce it needs then that's a problem. Maybe the issue is they can't find a US employee for what they want to pay.

@marcorandazza I haven't lived in a neighborhood with a HOA and have never seen the cars on blocks. I'd also advocate for not living in a neighborhood at all if you can avoid it. Buy a small parcel of land instead.

This is a super bad idea. For every nightmare you hear about HOAs, when I look for a home, I ask the realtor to find me places with the strictest HOA they have seen. I got fined for letting my car tires touch my grass, and I paid the fine and sent in a thank you. because fining me for that keeps Cletus T. Peckerwood next door from parking his 1978 trans am with no wheels on blocks in his front yard. Which keeps my neighborhood from eventually having a check cashing store in it.

Last week, a Florida bill that would allow residents to eliminate their HOAs was unanimously approved by its fourth and final committee, meaning it is now slated to go before the full House for consideration on Thursday. news4jax.com/news/local/202…

I got a notification on my phone at 7:14 this morning that Sean’s phone had detected a crash and emergency services had been contacted. I told Kaydee hustle up and let’s head that way. I arrived before almost anyone else, there were only a couple sheriffs on scene. I was able to walk up to the truck and it looked awful, clearly a head-on collision. I told one of the sheriffs who I was and he asked that I stay back from the scene, which I already knew and was. I couldn’t see Sean, just sort if where he was. The airbag was fully deployed and the whole front and side of the truck was crushed in around him. As I started to walk back to the car to wait the EMT arrived. About 10 minutes later the sheriff, EMT, and a state trooper came to the car and let me know that it wasn’t likely he would make it. Another 5 or so minutes after that the county coroner told me he was definitely dead. I never in my life imagined anything like this. I thought he was gonna be my giant video game buddy for the rest of my life. That we’d share and talk about comics and anime and cut up. I really couldn’t wait for him to “grow up” so we could have a beer together and really have fun. He just started his first adult job yesterday. He wasn’t even 18 yet. I can’t explain the hole in my heart. I don’t know if it’s even possible to explain it. I love you Sean! Nothing van describe how much I loved you, how proud I was and am of you, how much you meant to me. I already miss you more than I could have ever fathomed being able to miss someone. You looked like you were just sleeping when I got to see you for the last time. I wish you could have just woken up and this all have been fine. You were the best son I could have ever hoped for.

I loathe this viral TikTok trend of entitled, oblivious, ungrateful moms/wives downplaying the contribution of husbands/fathers. What would YOU add to the dad side that she conveniently omits?

@TechLayoffLover The platform reliability team is so telling because those usually support hundreds of application teams. "Why are our developers slowing down?" "No one understands the infrastructure, when it doesn’t work they don't know what to do."

I'm hearing that a major cloud provider is offering "voluntary" separation packages but the catch is you have 48 hours to decide and if you don't take it, you're automatically enrolled in their new "performance excellence program" which is basically a 60-day PIP speedrun. Multiple people in my DMs saying managers are literally telling people "this is the generous option" while making throat-slitting gestures Source close to the situation says they're targeting anyone L5+ who hasn't shipped a "meaningful customer impact" in the last 6 months, which apparently includes the entire platform reliability team because keeping the lights on doesn't count as innovation anymore. Wild that these people spent years in Slack channels debating code formatting and now act shocked when real accountability shows up
