Producing work that you know is DOA is incredibly demoralizing.

This is a good meme template. I like it.

You are not wrong.

Just dying to be the favorite child. Too bad that’s already Ivanka.

Letting his friend pierce his nipples was dumb. Coming to you with his concerns was smart. I wish our oldest (17) would do that more often but she usually likes to let things go until they are really out of control instead. I promise you, there are way worse things your son could be doing.

Just remind him that it’s better to consider the consequences before doing something like that.

Yeah baby! Strip those regs! Who’s ready for some more early 2000’s level fraud induced corporate bankruptcies? We’ll call it “Vibe Accounting”, which is where some idiot who can barely add uses an LLM to spit out financial statements that have no basis in reality.

Put down the thought of what’s right, what’s wrong…

Yeah, I can’t do that. I refuse to celebrate his death but I don’t mourn it either. He was an evil man who died in a horrible way.

That’s as far as my thoughts go on the subject.

Nice to see the refs left their eyeballs at home today. 🙄

I would not put it past Donny Bonespurs to have Kirk assassinated as either a distraction or to use as a pretext for more power grabs.

I’ll admit it’s a little tin foil hatty but considering he views other people as completely disposable, I don’t think it’s that far fetched.

“Vibe Presidenting”

'Those who live by the sword gun violence will die by the sword gun violence."

You’d need a case of dynamite and some matches to cut through that irony.

Well you see, it’s ✨magical✨ data that only executives can interpret. Us lowly employees ungrateful peons just wouldn’t understand it.

“Vibe Executing” is apparently how alot of CEO’s do their jobs. They didn’t know how to gauge productivity before the pandemic and they still don’t. They just pull whatever sounds good out of their asses at any given moment.

Ah yes. The Intel Strategy.

I’d like to learn to play the organ. I have an old Allen MOS-2 in my workshop that I started doing a MIDI conversion on and just haven’t had time to finish it.

Agreed. This whole lawsuit is one giant looming catastrophe. If ISP’s are found liable for copyright infringement, that will be the effective end of the open internet. From there, I can already see the argument taking shape that ISP’s, telco’s, and account holders are all effectively accomplices in all sorts of crimes facilitated using communications networks.

OK recording industry. Riddle me this. If you manage to cut off my internet access, how am I supposed to purchase your media?

Personal Anecdote

Last week I used the AI coding assistant within JetBrains DataGrip to build a fairly complex PostgreSQL function.

It put together a very well organized, easily readable function, complete with explanatory comments, that failed to execute because it was absolutely littered with errors.

I don’t think it saved me any time but it did help remove my brain block by reorganizing my logic and forcing me to think through it from a different perspective. Then again, I could have accomplished the same thing by knocking off work for the day and going to the driving range.

You could fill a bunch of socks with nickles which we could then use to beat the pedophiles.
