Just reverse rhem

I need this sign since every time I go take a shit my wife and cat decide to have an all hands meeting.

I’m really starting to understand why Benji and Donny get along so well.

It took me a second but Jesus Christ I lost it when I finally saw it.

Yep, the author was snickering the whole time writing this.

I’ll just say they do exist. It’s not with out caveats mind you but its been pretty good for 25 years

Didn’t raspberry pi do this years ago?

Well yeah I get that. But I wouldn’t trust them for stable employment when they make decisions like this. Of all the FANG jobs about the only one I would trust is Apple honestly.

Same here. This is gonna bug me all day….

“neighbors of a data center in Georgia are steaming…”

“One resident said frustration with data centers boiled over…”

This had to be on purpose.

Yeah I don’t get it either… autocorrect?

I wouldn’t work for Facebook if they tripled my current salary.

I take that back, I have enough leave saved up I could reasonably take a 4 month sabbatical so I would for about 4 months to make a years salary in that short amount of time and then tell Facebook to fuck off.

Yeah. I mean blockchain is sorta resource intensive but more distributed. Crypto is basically the same thing. AI requires gigawatts of power, is disrupting almost every tech based manufacturing, uses tons of natural resources. All to create terrible content, hallucinate completely made up answers, and automate things to destroy themselves. Great idea guys.

Do get me wrong, I’m not totally against AI. I think it can be a useful tool especially if sandboxed and run locally. But these giant data centers sucking up all the electricity and water are just no bueno.

Yep I missed that part, sorry. Good for you. Well not the being layed off part. Hopefully you found more employment. But companies like this are toxic at best, or just downright stupid.

I’ve had the misfortune of working for companies during the dotcom boom that had horrible business plans that I was lucky enough to leave before the bottom fell out.

Edit: typo

I had a Coleco Adam which was basically something like this that turned the Coleco into a complete computer instead of just a game console. God I would love something like that for my PS5.

Well shit. My ADHD brain leaves out words all the time. It was supposed to be “say so little”.

If your company did indeed lay off 95% of HR and replaced it with ChatGPT you need to find another job somewhere like now. They are about two lawsuits from not existing.

This is like measuring a carpenter’s work output by how much they use their hammer, not how much gets actually built. I hope every company that does this sorta bullshit goes belly up.

JFC, this marketing speak makes me wanna slap someone. I’m not sure how you can so many words and so little.

Seems like it was just a few days ago I post an internet story about an over engineered toaster….
