Now listen buddy, I'm an engineer, that means I solve problems. Not problems like, "what is beauty" because that would fall within the confines of your pervues of philosophy.... No, I solve -practical- problems.
Ok, but two things: 3. Every citizen of Canada has the right to vote in an election of members of the House of Commons or of a legislative assembly 15. Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination
These glasses, it reminds me of a theme/character from one of the sprawl trilogy books, where the lives of rich & famous are recorded and broadcast, often from first person view. It's not all that different than walking around with a webcam on your head, but maybe a little bit more trendy and subtle
Someone needs to have a sit-down with the boys at Google finance about the direction the platform is taking.
Am I out of touch? No! It's the children that are wrong.

It's quite a bit larger. My province, BC is about twice the size of Texas. In Canada there are large concentrations of people in the city and vast and wide stretches where there is nothing. Some stupid thing like 90% of the population is within some sliver of range of the US border, south of Calgary
Kendra "Gloom is My Beat" Pierre-Louis@kendrawrites.com · 3w agoCongrats you get to hide your shittiness behind the fact that even though geographically you are larger than the US your population is barely bigger than the state of California.
More concerned with anti-tech doomerism tbh. There are cases today where the only way to provide written feedback to program administration is through the written letter. There should be a physical & digital interface for all things. It's an accessibility thing, the blade cuts both ways.

I must admit that anything I've learned about this platner guy has been against my will. I hadn't even heard of the dude prior to a week ago, and learning about everything, it's like turning over a log and termites crawl out.
Here's a better photo showing the two of them. Both of these are from ~Nov '24 both very old girls. (Both passed within a week or two of eachother around this time)
This reminds me of my cat Mischa. She passed a few years ago. Here is a photo of her with my dad, she would've been about 22 in this picture. My dad gave this cat cheese ONCE and ever after was mauled for food, even if he didn't have any.
Skill issue on the engineer's part. The thing with accounting is it's a solved problem, has been for 1000s of years. Accountants don't need software. A good software engineer doesn't like talking to SMEs. The good ones STFU and listen.
Regime Accountant, CPA ☠️🎢@regimecpa.bsky.social · last mo.Me: I don't care about this Software Engineer: No, actually you do, you're just too stupid to notice you care about it A perfect encapsulation of why people don't like talking to software engineers
So lemme get this right, some Sony exec took one look at the steam box and said "why doesn't mine look like that 😔"
👀 Google gets a pass?! It's the lynchpin of the whole thing.
Pam Keith@pamkeithdc.bsky.social · last mo.SpaceX = white tech bro hype Nvidia = white tech bro hype Anthropic= white tech bro hype Crypto currencies = white tech bro hype Data Centers = white tech bro hype Tesla =white tech bro hype All of this nonsense is going to implode, and likely at the same time.
"ohh we'll never persist" , "we won't keep biometric" bla bla bla. No. NO! The ONLY way this works is if it is NOT PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE for tech conpanies to see shit. Any "solution" that involves taking a selfie & ID is a complete non-starter. That's the godamn holy grail of your identity.
For my two cents, I think laws & regulations over online services is well overdue. The problem as I view it is every service rushes forward with the first implementation, and it'll require ID verification, and leak PII like a sieve
Completely unrelated to anything, but I'm reminded of when my cousin got heavy into open source in grade 8, probably 12 or 13, and started calling himself OpenMatt. This would've been in 1998 or 9.
midwest emo fan@natalie.sh · last mo.my condolences to all software engineers named claude, devin, opencode, bob, kiro, goose, pi, or chatgpt.
Its one coffee Michael, what could it cost? Twenty-five dollars?
Money is a key divider here. Traveling is expensive. The people that come are well fed and privileged. It's proof that once a baseline of wealth is achieved, everything is fine. If folks are struggling to feed and house themselves, a football tournament is a lavish affair.
Michelle@michelleroy78.bsky.social · last mo.The World Cup is proof that if not for our leaders, the vast majority of the world's people would get along just fine.
Does screaming into the void help? If I tell the AI robot that it's wrong, that it did the thing wrong and it should feel bad about the insufficient data sources it's been fed.
I have it on good authority that pain is weakness leaving the body, is soldier tf2 has taught me anything in this world.
JLP@jlp.systems · 2mo agoPain is ouchies entering the body

you think if I could afford a pot I would piss in it? what the hell are you doing to your pots
For those that need to know, I did finally beat that boss. I'm pretty sure if was a weird scaling oddity, where skills haven't been unlocked. Still, such a strange case that one of the first bosses of the game is hardest.
Tyler Waters@tswaters.bsky.social · 3mo agoTurns out Diablo IV may not be for me. I played it around launch, even got a character to 100. Didn't get the first expansion. Now my buddy tells me about all the QOL improvements, how great everything is. Sure, I'll give it a shot.
