I’ve already resigned to the fact that I will probably die alone in an apartment not to be found for weeks because no one checks in on me other than my parents. I won’t kill myself, but I’m not good at socializing

Upvoted because it belongs in this community, and should not be silenced, even though it is the wrong opinion

I hate interviews so much. I feel like none of my work experience has ever helped me in an interview. It’s so fucking stupid.

Fair point. If you are in immediate danger then yeah, not gonna argue. But if you are able to stay and do something, that should be preferable.

I am brown (Filipino). I won’t be leaving. My sister lives here. My nephew. They can go somewhere safe, but there aren’t many places safe from a hot, land war in this world like the US observably is. Mayyybe Canada, but enjoy that economy.

And go where? Where in the world is safe right now? I thought about living in the Philippines with my family, but China is probably waging war soon. Europe? With the way America is headed and the war is going? Let’s assume Ukraine wins: Europe is out of gas and will militarize and right wing governments are rising with German nationalism leading the battle drums, Ukraine gonna be in an economic slump, Russia is gonna be subservient and dependent on China because its economy is gone without a win.

That leaves countries with metropolises that are suffering from westerners gentrifying their neighborhoods with the USD being strong in these places. We are really going to make the poor in other nations pay the price for our government’s doing again, but this time by our own choice? That’s not any better imo. Unless you are leaving with the specific intent on making the place you are going better, stay home please

A 20 dollar per device settlement for selling your data for billions. And the lawyers get paid big. Who the fuck is working for the working class? The law? Defense attorneys? Leaders?

I still don’t know algorithms by heart and been a software dev for 11 years lol
Why waste my brain storage on things I can just look up or read in one of my books when I could be remembering higher level concepts that are hard to research and understand without experience?

I love the arrow in functional programming. Some functional languages (like reasonml) has multiple arrow operators that did different things like this one -> would put the argument in the first position (a popular JS pattern) and the big arrow |> would put it last like most functional languages.

I know this is about CPP but honestly I love the way it looks, but I’m a weirdo lol

I’m a socialist. I understand market forces and I wish more people did. Technology itself can help the lower class. Government protection of technology (patents, copyright) will always hinder them.

lowering the barrier to entry without protecting the elite will bring about market forces necessary to defeat corporations—small sizes can move and adapt faster and try new things than those with institutional bureaucracy, who just follow the money and don’t innovate. Corporations learned this, and now use government protections (copyright, patents) to prevent these new, necessary, market forces. I don’t like the “economic” terms myself, but it’s not rocket science that corporations benefit from cops (aka law enforcement aka laws).

We can remove the restrictions on new market forces by reducing IP protections, prevent corporations from mucking with newbies by preventing them from getting uncompetitive protections, or by stealing from corporations without regard for the law. I think we should steal more, honestly.

Stopping technology has never worked, though. I understand the plight of artists, but I’m extremely excited for the new human artists that dream up art that AI can’t create because it hasn’t been fathomed before.

Haha glad it worked out :)

Yup, you just gotta set the right environment variables. Can’t remember them off the top of my head though, “NVAPI” is part of one of them I think. Don’t have an nvidia gpu anymore, though, switched to AMD about two months back.

By your own admission you are punching down or sideways at best. Punch up. You see what you want to see, you aren’t the only person in the world who’s a card carrying union member here nor are you the only person who cares about workers in any non-tech industry here. Class infighting is about the dumbest thing ever.

I switched from a 3070 to an Rx 7900XT on Sunday. Uninstalling all of nvidia shit was great. I used linux-zen so that meant using nvidia-dkms. So happy I don’t have to deal with that anymore. And yeah, I use a lot of flatpaks, so removing all of those nvidia drivers was also a great feeling. And now I can use Wayland!
