I’m not in the US no, so far nobody has mentioned it in conversation

Fair I’m not really on any other forums anymore and I haven’t heard anything about this CEO death until just now

The beauty of federation is that even if you’re on a “dead” instance as long as you’re federated with bigger ones it doesn’t matter

Itssss fine it’s only the dev database I can drop this table

Looks like a reasonable meal

I wouldn’t say I’m a nihilist, I still care about sentient life and am also a vegetarian so can’t really say I don’t care about animals

Just in the grand scheme of things if the earth blew up tomorrow it’s no biggie for the universe

Generally put those kind of issues out of my mind by just reminding myself it’s out of my control anyway

I would go a step further to say life isn’t that important as a whole in the grand scheme of the universe

We as humans place value on it because we’re part of it, we rely on it to carry on existing, and we’re curious and find it interesting

Could argue that intelligence/sentience is important but it’s only important from the perspective of beings with intelligence

Constant distraction, shutting out problems until I’m able to deal with them

Not a good method but it kinda works

It might be because I’d never used C but I really struggled to pick up rust for a month or so until it stopped feeling like

Doesn’t that mean you’d be stealing from the person because of how crypto works?

Why not just have a copy of a million pounds or something

All he needs is a minute with a prostitute

I really thought it was just a rich person meming but apparently he took it seriously

Have never heard of that, will have a goggle

The borrow checker, the way it handles exceptions and nulls, the way it handles stack/heap (possibly foreign to me because I’ve never done much on C), composition pattern instead of oop, probably more I’m forgetting

It’s crazy to me that people don’t do this, once you’ve learned a few languages you can basically just pick up new ones straight away (assuming they don’t use entirely foreign concepts like Rust does)

But we can all agree that JavaScript was a mistake right?

“let’s try to stop hate by voting for the person we hate the most publicly”

On the flip side, training ai for image recognition has the potential for auto labelling images for the blind

Could be either the website owners themselves generate them if a human written one isn’t provided, or a browser extension that auto labels any unlabelled images on the screen

Captchas have been for training ai for years that’s nothing new. Iirc the reason you do two is one to confirm you’re human, one for training data

I open source everything I make whether it’s useful to anyone or not just for the sake of it, I document it for CV points
