Well no, because you also have the option of not using the app, in which case none of your data will be used…

I’m actually fine with it, in the case of Lemmy this is all public data, whether or not Lemmy admins are training AI on it, there is nothing to stop me from training my own AI models with this data.

I think the larger issue is I don’t consider it “your data” once you put it on one of these sites. As soon as you take your own thought and put it on facebook/instagram/reddit/whatever, it’s now theirs, it lives in their databases, and frankly for a social media company it’s probably their most valuable asset.

No one is forcing anyone to use social media, if you want your thoughts and actions to be your own I would recommend not putting them on the internet.

I don’t see the issue with this, don’t give your data to companies if you don’t them to use it. No one is forcing us to use these services, if you don’t want twitter to train their AI off your tweets, then don’t tweet.

Code documentation is like sex, when it’s good it’s great, and when it’s not good…it’s still better then no documentation.

I wish this was true, I’ve tried it multiple times at Starbucks and it doesn’t work.

I think the majority of the staff is working on mobile/drive thru orders vs the orders that come in at the counter.

Regardless, going inside has taken me longer then joining that stupid line.

I pay for YouTubeTV, and to be honest it’s basically Cable, expect it’s over the internet, I don’t need a set top box, and I can watch it on my TV/Phone/Laptop, whatever.

So when I hear people say “cable”, I really think YouTubeT, Live Hulu, or other similar services…

Although how small a “small” town should be is up for debate, the U.S. Census Bureau has used 50,000 people as a benchmark measure for large cities, so we used the same number to separate small urban areas from large urban areas.

So a city with 49,000 is being counted as a “small town”. Sorry, that’s not a small town, “small town”, in my book is around 2,000 people or less, this title is misleading. A 40,000 person town, is a town or maybe a small city, but no shit those people aren’t all voting for republicans. Pick a major metro area and look at the cities/towns that surround them (aka the suburbs) going by this, they count as “small towns”.

If a flag is on the right side of your body (or in this case car) then it’s reversed otherwise it’s normal.

The U.S. flag appears backward on military uniforms when worn on the right side, so the canton is assaulting forward. This reflects the image of the American flag flying in the wind, the blue union field always moving forward to symbolize the bravery and commitment of military service members.

One or two well behaved dogs and it’s awesome.

They’re quoting Blind users though, Blind is a cesspool of silicon Valley tech bros. It’s often just a dick measuring contest between FAANG workers about who makes more money.

As a tech worker in rhe U.S. we are definitely not being exploited. I’m all for unions but we’re doing just fine.

“Tell me you spank the monkey before any big date. Oh my God, he doesn’t flog the dolphin before a big date. Are you crazy? That’s like going out there with a loaded gun! Of course that’s why you’re nervous”

Its nice to see that the Lemmy fuckCars crowd is a little more understanding that cars are needed outside of cities. I live in rural Colorado and I can drive for hours w/o traffic.

For example, this photo was taken in the forest a few miles from my house.

For those of you browsing from lemmy.world here is how to access it and stay logged in:

An instance is a web server running the Lemmy software. You are most likely on lemmy.world

All the servers talk to each h other and if you make an account on one instance you should be able to view content and post/comment on communities on other instances like lemmy.ml as well.

The real answer is “it depends”, but that said, I think when you’re early in your career you will advance faster, and increase your compensation more quickly by switching jobs.

I do also think there are advantages to see how different organizations and industries tackle similar problems.

But if you have a job you’re happy with, are getting paid fairly, have a good manager/team, then I wouldn’t just change jobs for no reason.

As you get later in your career though I do think it’s easier to get promoted to more senior/staff/architect roles from within. Taking on a high level leadership position at a new company comes with its own set of challenges that are not the same for a tenured engineer that gets promoted.

You can add me, I’ve never modded before but I could give it a try. I’m messing with the Lemmy API a bit so I might be able to help with some tools in the future.
