Unless you get 100% of your power from the solar panels which is doubtful, then you’re using solar power that could’ve gone to something actually necessary

It seems it was recent enough to spell common words correctly

Explain how this amount of electricity use could ever be “ethically sourced”. That’s not even much of a thing for meat, which at least provides nutrients. AI slop is everywhere and most of it is not helping anyone with anything.

Thanks for actually reading what I wrote. Many people read a little and make up the rest or make up something to replace what was written. I mean yeah, he deserves way more than 20% of the blame for pretending like he wanted to learn, however my manager bears a lot of blame for the situation overall because he should have reprimanded him then fired him after a couple months if he didn’t improve. Instead, my teammates and I spent hours and hours ripping this guy’s PRs to shreds and trying to teach him shit and it never went anywhere. I remember one PR had over 90 comments on it! He routinely broke the build, usually in the same ways as before. I spent so much time pointing out the same mistakes over and over.

If he’d been fired, that timesuck would’ve been minimized and actually there’s some small possibility he would’ve gotten better if he thought he couldn’t get away with coasting like he did. But since his incompetence went uncontested for two years by management, he wasted tons of everyone’s time. If it were up to me he would’ve been gone before three months.

Even if AI were the miracle people like you suggest, you’re still destroying the environment. But also it’s not miraculous. Which you conflictingly say is and is not the case…

I haven’t heard of Air VPN. They been around long?

If you like fascism and crypto

Yeah. Several of us tried to train him. He was not only not as good as he seemed in the interview, he didn’t care to learn.

“Someone represented themselves as being very interested in development and getting better at it. It’s obviously not their fault if all that was bullshit!”

It is a long story but yeah it was about 80% management’s fault and 20% the fault of the dude having zero ambition. I didn’t expect this comment to get so many downvotes… it’s as though I would need to explain that I’m not entirely blaming him for continuing to be employed in a problematic manner as he was. Obviously management should have addressed the issue and didn’t, but why am I not allowed to blame a person for sucking at their job… ? If the idea is that if I thought he sucked I should have fixed it, that’s silly, but regardless I did try to teach him things. He never retained anything, so after a few months I gave up.

Pretty much. We had the worst junior dev ever and he never got better for a period of two years because he was coddled and allowed to keep submitting horrible code. He was laid off, thankfully honestly, but if there weren’t budget cuts I feel like he never would’ve improved and just kept wasting everyone else’s time.

Edit: the point I was making here is that coddling him kept from either being fired or getting better. Not sure why people cannot understand that more than one thing can be true. In this case that the dude is a horrible dev and also that management dropped the ball. I tried to teach him shit. When he didn’t improve I let my manager know how things were going. Nothing happened to him for literal years.

And as the cherry on top here he said he was going to start some kind of businessy-sounding machine learning degree program, after he was let go in layoffs. So yeah the dude knows he sucks at coding but definitely wants in on the AI grift.

Yeah I checked and my kernel version is a few patch versions back from the applicable minor version you listed. Bummer.

I appreciate this! I had assumed everyone was pushing a fix soon if not already but you may be right that it’s sort of the opposite.

It’s backed by fascist psychopath Peter Thiel and it, at least for a long time, promoted a crypto scam as a main browser feature.

Which isn’t fixed?

I wish I had port forwarding but I don’t currently. Not having open VPN support is a deal breaker for me though. A lot of people recently have talked shit about NordVPN but talked up Mullvad. Now that I know Mullvad doesn’t even have that standard feature, I’m even more perplexed that people talk it up so much.

Did you not know we’re near the end?

Obligatory fuck brave. What’s wrong with nord exactly?

Imagine I just repeated that back to you in a really bad and exaggerated cockney accent, and adding afterwards “guvna!”

It’s really weird when people think video games are dating apps
