Looks like you got your answer so I am just going to complain that I can’t set my search engine to never give me results from Pinterest. I hate that site. I can block it in my firewall, but it shows up way too much in search results.

My coworkers, especially the younger ones, are surprised when they watch me work in vi. Lots of “how did you do that so fast?”

Vim. I used to use emacs in the mid-90s, but I just found that vi was more universally supported. At this point, I am too old and stubborn to learn anything else. I am really efficient in vim.

I think you mean it will ducking correct…

I turned mine off completely because it has bo comprehension of when an apostrophe is appropriate in front of the letter s. Forever making words possessive that were intended to be plural. Apostrophes do not mean “look out, here comes an s.”

I would not be surprised if autocorrect was a major culprit along with phone keyboards. You can type something correctly and have autocorrect make it wrong. It’s also super easy to get the wrong letter if you have normal sized hands and are typing on a phone keyboard. I have turned autocorrect completely off and am significantly less error prone as a result.

I frequently decide against correcting an error if I think my intention is clear, and I am in a hurry. I don’t really care what strangers on the internet think of my editing skills.

Well, since it is basic military doctrine that you should never field a unit that you can’t afford to lose, and the billions in $ losses and thousands of sailor lives means we can’t afford to lose a carrier, this suggests that carriers are now obsolete and should be retired.

The price was going to be $499. A 145% tariff makes the price $1222.55. A 100% tariff would double the price and this is more than 100%.

Looks like pretty steep inflation fueled by tariffs. I wonder how the Denies Reality Party (DeRPs) will spin it.

Yeah that sounds awful. Fortunately corporate policies prohibit putting our technical data into AIs.

Scrum is just something I have to endure in order to get paid to program. The worst is when you’re working on something hard and your status hasn’t changed substantially from the previous day. “I did a bunch of things that didn’t pan out, so I only really have an expanding list of things that are not the problem. No, assigning someone to help me is unlikely to resolve the issue faster.”

More like retailers won’t eat any of it and will take the opportunity to raise prices even more because they know consumers are expecting higher prices and they have pressure to retain or increase their margins to meet shareholder expectations.

Now we just need democrats in congress to block additional crop subsidies so the red state farmers suffer for voting orange. Oh wait, the farmers are dumb and will only understand that the democrats voted against their subsidy, not why it was needed in the first place.

I think they necessarily will. I can’t imagine retailers eating the lost margin.

Betteridge’s law applies. The answer to a yes-no headline question is always no.

I don’t want to ask ai. Google automatically gives me ai search results that are piss poor. Those useless results still use energy to generate.

So is the plan to drive the cost of everyday essentials so high that virtually everyone bankrupts and the billionaires buy all of our assets for pennies on the thousand dollars? That is all I can come up with trying to make a scenario where this has some coherent objective.

And the quality of the AI output sucks. I was recently looking for information about positive convention for yaw, pitch, and roll in aircraft. I was looking at az and yaw and got reasonable results from the AI, but when I looked at pitch and el all of the results were about elevator pitches. Even when I spelled out elevation it insisted on elevator pitches. I scroll past the AI results as a matter of principle, but I usually look at them so I have something specific to complain about when people ask why I am so virulently anti-AI.

Meanwhile I am learning to dislike my fellow Americans to the point where I am starting to think violence might be the only viable solution.

Lots of free movies on Tubi. I watched a few old movies that I missed there. I just don’t watch movies much anymore.

Yay, my 50 something butt is a younger people.

For us this design is closer to marketing’s portrayal. The design is a tiger that has lost his tail, is slightly inbred, and has a bit of mange. The implementation looks like this implementation after a dog has used it as a chew toy.
