I can’t say off the top of my head. Power tripping is the best first guess I have. I kinda equate it to anything that could help people live longer. Why don’t they give out insulin at better prices so people live longer and buy more stuff? That’s logically the smarter move, right?

You know they are always thinking how they can use it to only benefit themselves. Don’t kid yourself on that, they’re leeches and this is their mentality

I can, didn’t all the better developers leave when Elon took over?

It’s not, but I pushed back on my gym and they got me a barcode key tag. The app just shows a barcode anyway so I lucked out. I took a picture of the barcode and use that to get into the gym. Doesn’t hurt to try

The idea of antiwork isn’t bad though. We should use anything and everything we can to utilize automation to allow people to live with as little work as possible. Is that a reality today, no. Can it be a reality in the future, maybe. Things will need maintenance and upkeep, people will want to innovate and try to build new things, etc. But that doesn’t mean we can’t work on things like UBI, free housing, free medicine, free education, etc.

The idea of heading that direction is (what I understood) the main goal. We’re just going to need to take steps to get there and changing the terrible labor practices we currently have became step 1 and thus a majority of the focus in the subreddit.

Fuck off spam bot

I went to an engineering school and graduated without the engineer title. I then started working in the software field and got a title of software engineer. I have people I’ve talked to about the title of engineer and how they have to take multiple tests and curriculums for that title. I only bring that up to say I think I know what you’re going for but as I see things, they are a bit different.

I feel a lot of engineer titles are based on hard math/physics/chemistry of this universe. That makes a lot of things well researched, investigated, and (depending on your view) semi-stable in how things behave. We’ve been learning and expanding on this physical world for centuries.

Now with software engineering we’re learning all the ways that we can build/create/destroy things that are in a “virtual space”. What is interacted with doesn’t necessarily conform to the physical universe. These are things that technically exist in those electronic pulses/signals but that feels more like computer engineering vs software engineering. Anyway, these non-physical designs don’t pose an immediate risk to the life of someone in the physical space so they don’t have the same creed and oath like the other professions. I feel we’re in the changing of titles in the future because software is forever integrating itself in our lives and we’re learning how much it can impact us physically as it’s more tied to our lives.

Just like electrical engineer may not have been a protected title in the past (as an example as we learned how electricity affected us) and other disciplines now affect our physical space, we’re on the precepts of software engineering affecting us. We still may be years or decades out but remember that other engineering fields had their infancy

I’ve got my current cat and had my previous one trained to know that if I’m in the bed it’s sleep only. If I wake up with them between my legs I’ll shift, they move, I give pets, and go back to sleep. I know that’s not feasible for all people but I’ve been lucky with the cats I’ve had/have.

I bought a SD1 a year ago to use as my work phone. Not for emails and IM clients, but mainly as a secondary prepaid phone that work gets the number for if I’m on call. It’s been awesome and has also been a great little ebook reader. I’m kinda sad there are no more updates but I know I didn’t use it to it’s full capabilities.

Yup, that happens lol. Just move your legs, they’ll change to move in the new nook/cranny your body makes.

Throttling again? Didn’t he do this to them already?

One thing I just saw. When I posted a comment it didn’t show up on the post until I manually refreshed. I don’t know if that’s intentional or not.

Edit: it was a reply to a comment. A comment on an article showed up right away.

Right? I’d wear the shit out of those

From what I’ve sent in emails, it doesn’t matter. People will “read” what they want then ignore the rest.

Yeah, I allude to it in the back half of my comment but you’re absolutely right. Also some facilities can handle pizza grease on the boxes but others can’t. Then the pizza companies always say “recycle this box!” It’s so annoying.

If it’s recycling or trash it should always be a common color. I’m used to blue for recycling but we should all agree on a single color. Green to me has always been common trash. Also I hate how recycling isn’t standard. I know reasons why they aren’t but I wish we’d all come together as a country to fix that (among the other 5,000 things).

I get that. Current humidity is 77%. It’s always brutal.

That’s how I took it. It’s so powerful it insta-killls, then by default everyone within earshot thinks about what was said and needs to save else they also take the depressive damage

True. I believe you can accomplish the same effect if you’re able to use long curtains to “room off” your sleeping area. I guess it depends on what your living situation is obviously if that’s feasible.

Exactly. In my city the lowest “high” we have from Sunday to Friday is 99. I’m not looking forward to it.
