People need to stop revering open source as the solution to humanity’s problems and treat it as a useful tool, nothing more.

Chaotic evil

Pick your terms.

winky88@startrek.websiteto Programming@programming.dev•what's the highest increase in salary you've had or seen?English3·2 years agoMy last raise was 10k. But that was after 7+ years of no raises (agency work, slow times). When COVID hit, our business picked up for 2 years straight and I finally convinced them it was stable enough to commit. We’re a small company and they’d rather give out bonuses or assistance with personal expenses than commit to an annual salary increase (which I get), but COL has spiked in recent times, so the raise was well past due.
winky88@startrek.websiteto Apple@lemmy.world•New malware strain stealing business data from Intel MacsEnglish12·2 years agoAs a Windows user that dabbles in Mac but is definitely not an expert, I get seriously frustrated when I try to share my screen in ??? meeting product only to have to adjust permissions and be told I probably need to restart the app (in the middle of a meeting). I’ve found other minor nags with MacOS along the same lines. They are trivial at best, but can be seriously interrupting. I agree with the high security defaults, but the UX could be improved.

winky88@startrek.websiteto Programming@programming.dev•I wish writing SQL queries was more popular than ORMsEnglish41·2 years agoThere seems to be a trend of new (old) developers who find that strong typing is nothing more than a nuisance.
History repeating itself in the IT world. I don’t wanna be around to support the systems that inherit these guys.

winky88@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should there be an "ALL OFF" button to instantly shut down all these new AI Defense bots that the Military in the US want to build and deploy in the thousands?English51·2 years agoRather than be used for war, they’ll be used for threats of violence and propaganda
Surveillance is the word you’re looking for. Take all those NSA pipelines and run them through an AI and BAM, you’ve got your “terrorists”.
AI will be downfall of our technological society, but not because of killer robots and malevolent systems. It’s going to make everyone completely and utterly incompetent at everything in life.
winky88@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do dinosaurs have big heads and tiny arms?English131·2 years ago100+ million years qualifies as right in the middle of “for long” in my book. The fact that an asteroid or comet of biblical proportions wiped them out has nothing to do with evolutionary effectiveness. Most of the animals that did survive either A) lived in water or B) lived underground.
I personally like sketchers slip ons. Great for casual daily use, if light on style options.
