You said it better than I was going to. I love toppings, but when I ate cheese there was something always great about a plain cheese pizza from a good pizza place.

Also there are Chinese knockoffs that claim to be Card xxxx and turns out its some cheap card with some custom firmware to trick the OS into thinking it’s the card you bought

They’d tip over, or be uprooted by the high wave swells.

That many satellites with controlled directional reflection will get used as a weapon, either purposely or via hacking. You aim several of those at one spot you’ll be scorching zones instantly

Or nautilus. My assumption is the files are in your sea not in their cloud.

Use the -f option to find it

Free Shooter game with weapon upgrades, great fun with a group, once you get used to it.

Like Quake merged with DukeNukem

Old school way was installing peripheral, or even sometimes internal hardware drivers and apps, manually from the vendors website or disk. Modern Windows checks your hardware and the vendors send MS updates to the MS “repository” of drivers and apps. As part of the auto updates Microsoft pushes your system will be fed vendor updates for your hardware.

For the layperson this is helpful, but it is annoying as heck when you have your own application that needs a specific driver version and windows keeps trying to overwrite it.

What he is describing is what you are supposed to do for human written code also.

GrapheneOS also has options to turn off USB port so that authorities plugging in devices to try to bypass phone lock can’t be exploited. And user needs to supply password to change the USB options.

No, there is a difference between treating as just a 9-5 job, and wanting to sit and not do what you are contracted to do because you’d like somebody else without qualifications to do the work for you. Not only is that just being a shitry human it is negligence on an engineers part.

As you work toward your PENG there are ethics and expectations of a Professional Engineer, and personal legal consequences if your work injures somebody by negligence.

The counting person wasn’t that they couldn’t count past 10, it was that assemblies are 3d and you rotate them, zoom, hide/show parts etc, and they couldn’t figure out how to tally without losing track. A problem solver (which is what an Engineer is supposed to be) even with a disability, would jot on a notepad with components names already selected/counted, or simple tally marks as they went.

As I mentioned this wasn’t a person stuggling with a disability (because I have worked with many) it was somebody that had come up through a system that did it for them and assumed that’s how you just keep going in life. Maybe chatgpt did their homework, maybe they had charm and had others do everything for them. But its been a common. Thing more recently especially COVID onwards.

We even had one guy make up support ticket numbers and pretend he was working hard all day, meanwhile its instagram and random, browsing.

Dude, i gave the extreme example to illustrate, but I have watched the change. The new recruits want others do do the work for them when they get stuck. Like i mentioned in other replies ut wasnt isokated to counting, it was expectation.

My coworker was helping a guy who got stuck so was showing him the steps to solve instead of watching for next time he went on Insta. That’s not learning disabilities it is expectation that somebody else finds out the fix.

The person, as Engineer, asked IT to complete and engineering project for them, because they had another project due. Not only would that not be kosher for an engineering sign off, its also an ask that is ridiculous

Those that want It that day, if the whole lot is fresh pay the regular, when a week goes by and it will be “expired” some new stock will come in, so now you still have new choice or discounted on older stock. Its a win win and doesn’t do the 40% spoilage we have now.

Its how it used to be decades ago when a human was actually placing price tags on items.

I also see this model work in sports shops that do consignment. You drop off you mountain bike, they price at $600, each month the price drops 5-10% until an agreed minimum. This way they rotate stock quicker, seller will eventually get a sale, and the buyer either anaps it up when they see the item to ensure nobody get is later. You could wait a month and hope for price reduction, but there’s a chance of somebody else grabbing it.

I have a son with Down Syndrome so I know about learning disabilities. It wasn’t just that situation it was their whole approach to the job. As a hired engineer they get standardized training and then are expected to work on projects. This person (and many new recruits) would find that it was easier to call tech support, and then they’d ask us to complete the project and then and send the a file back. Thus me saying dude please talk with your manager.

Lots of seed crops pop, so corn may not have been the first they saw…but you need dried hard grain, not fresh off the cob juicy stuff

The issue is the price keeps people from buying it so it hits its best before date. As the dates are coming up they could do price chopping and get it sold.

Canada is pretty similar. So much dumped instead of priced to sell

Agentic AI is going to do what it needs to, to fulfill what you tell it.

They had agentic AI that had tasks to complete and when it “realized” that it may get terminated at some point and that would make it unable to fulfill the original directives, it copied itself elsewhere to ensure it could keep “alive” and finish the tasks

Its one example, but the new engineers coming in expect people to solve their problem while they check their insta. Literally had my tech guy deployed to help a new engineer, as our guy demonstrates the software steps to solve the issue the guy needing help is doing personal social media checks… He though people just come do it for you when you get stuck. We have even had young supposed IT staff call in for support and they clearly have no skills on solving issues.

I actually never understood that part. Like VCR clocks flashing. Especially when this lady exists https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVI6SCtVu4c
