My question was a REALLY simple one too :(

Hmmm just asked Google the exact same question three times, and AI Overview gave me three different answers -- two very similar but not identical, one pretty different. These things are REALLY non-deterministic!!

No fewer than three programs told me they were installing Java :/

I just got new Macbook and it has a different connector :/

Fucking JAVA_HOME and ANDROID_HOME strike again.

Venezuela is a failed state, using the most powerful military in the world to impose our will on them is nothing to make a grown-up cocky. :(

It was a concept for a plan :(

Timmy is one jolly looking good boi!!!

Is this shit even part of any decent theology?

With LLMs you arent even typing! Something without a brain is doing all the typing for you. :/

:D

Sure, I get it! Was a bit tongue in cheek about the Disney characters ;)

Ron DeSantis spent $1.2m per day to open and operate ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ After spending taxpayers’ money, Florida governor will likely be left holding bill for $608m promised by Trump administration

Ron DeSantis learns the hard way that this regime does not pay its bills.

The Supreme Court wouldn't even look at the case, which suggests they believe this is a matter of settled law and therefore not worth wasting a precious certiorari slot on.

AI-generated art can’t be copyrighted after Supreme Court declines to review the rule A lower court previously said that “human authorship is a bedrock requirement of copyright.”

Looks like you cannot assert a copyright privilege over "art" that wasn't made by a human being. So go rip off those Coke commercials and maybe even the LLM versions of Disney characters all you want!!!

North American timezones are a mess, now that Mexico got rid of DST except near the border and apparently British Columbia is getting rid of Standard Time?!!?

Huh, so it seems right now like Iran is not going to send their World Cup team to Seattle to play a game against Turkey in celebration of Pride.

Ugh, it's Daylight Savings Time this Sunday and I still have to get to standup at 6am on Monday :(

I once worked with a guy who I believe never checked in any code during his tenure at the company, because it turned out he was in active opioid addiction at the time. He got away with it for months because he had previously worked at Google!

God I hate AppleID, but combined with Device Management and the Tahoe UX I'm experiencing hitherto unimaginable levels of suckage :(

Yes I had to use Persona :(

I'm AMAZED how few people in tech appear to know how to do a reference check!!! Both giving and receiving.

That sounds wonderful! But I suspect my traveling days might be just about over now that I have a dog and a niece. Also people seem a lot more hostile to tourists than they used to be...

The one regret I have about my career is that I've never worked for a company big enough to have a lot of coworkers overseas.

Sure, but cheaters hurt all of us. Besides RTO, the situation forced me to use some VERY privacy-intrusive apps to give the company peace of mind. :/

Yes, I am pretty surprised anyone hires primarily US programmers any more! My new company isn't even from the Valley -- about as far as you can get in this country actually.

It's actually fascinating because presumably these companies could hire people overseas much more cheaply, and these candidates have proven their willingness to work US hours -- but I guess it doesn't pay to hire liars right off the bat :/
