- Comment on Is there a real, actually working way to earn money online without having a job? 8 hours ago:
Just a simple loan to start off. Just a million dollar loan
- Comment on How do we know that the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle is preserved across radius sizes? 1 day ago:
There’s kind of a meek proof built of of work Euclid and Archimedes. There’s a paper that goes over it (I know skimmed) arxiv.org/pdf/1303.0904

Just snagged this to watch next week

Welcome back to the digital world 👨🏼💻
Another vote for Expedition 33. Literally best game I’ve ever played. Loved it so much.
A lot of people loving Dispatch but not tried it myself yet.
Blue Prince is unlike a lot of games I’ve played before, bring a notebook though.
Heard good things about Metaphor: Refantazio
Not a 2024 game but I’m still gonna plug Inscryption too if you haven’t played it. Such a fun little game.
- Comment on Gone too soon 1 week ago:
Oh that definitely I agree was wrong. Nothing in it really breaks canon what with all the timeline jumping and such both the show and movies did. Loki alone should have made S.H.I.E.L.D. canon
- Comment on Gone too soon 1 week ago:
I don’t think it was too soon. They kind of lost the plot when they moved on from trying to tie every season to a marvel movie. It was good and I loved it and I want more like it, but it was time
- Comment on The Game Awards begins 11 hours from now. What are you looking forward to? 1 week ago:
The real reason to watch
- Comment on Elon Musk, doing Elon Musk things. 2 weeks ago:
Honestly this world is ready for Vecna and I’ve got enough trauma in my past. Fuck it. Vecna come get me let’s open your gate man

Of course a sheep cheese philistine would argue in the comments. Get on the Llama cheese level
- Comment on Might not be efficient, but at least it... Uhhh, wait, what good does it provide again? 3 weeks ago:
If AI can do your job in minutes you’re either: A fool pumping out AI slop someone else has to fix and you don’t realize it.
Or
Doing a job that really shouldn’t exist.
LLMs can’t do more than shove out a watered down average of things it’s seen before. It can’t really solve problems, it can’t think, all it can do is regurgitate what it’s seen before. Not exactly conducive to quality.
- Comment on Forever young 4 weeks ago:
My buddy and I weren’t doing so hot last year and used Halo Infinite as our therapy. Pretty sure both of us alternated between being called a bot and a cheater every other match. It’s amazing sometimes just how bad you can do and still be called a cheater. (High plat to low diamond lobbies, we weren’t amazing)
- Comment on Google tells employees it must double capacity every 6 months to meet AI demand 4 weeks ago:
Moore’s “law” died back in 2016. It’s not held for a while now. The only way they can scale the way they want without a major breakthrough is more power and larger machines
- Comment on How far you've fallen 1 month ago:
Definitely not my experience at four different companies or what I’ve seen from my friends venting. I’m kind of jealous.
The only time I’ve gotten to improve things already written is when we had a specific contract to do so once. Other than that, yeah, small bug fixes but otherwise new development only.

Oh good lord no. Who knows what bacteria they’ll start ingesting because the water is “raw”
- Comment on How far you've fallen 1 month ago:
You get to manage code? Once it’s shipped it’s gone. There’s no time for refactor and only tackle major bugs. That’s the corporate way
- Comment on How far you've fallen 1 month ago:
“Sometimes being a programmer isn’t about the code you write, it’s about knowing which libraries to use. It still takes skill.” I tell myself as I add my 20th nuget package instead of writing ten lines of code to reverse a string.

- Comment on NOW! 1 month ago:
Although I agree and run a free grill myself, this looks like one of those computer controlled pellet smokers, not a regular grill. Not a straight comparison to grilling.

Sorry, only lambdas.
- Comment on Take-Two’s CEO doesn’t think a Grand Theft Auto built with AI would be very good [VGC] 1 month ago:
Yeah AI is not the right choice for this. Plenty of procedural algorithms for this already. It’s just very cost expensive hardware wise.
- Comment on Is it weird to simultaneously feel love and hatred towards parents? 1 month ago:
Yeah, sounds like you’re starting to figure some things out for yourself. This is all natural and fine. You’re empathizing with the choices they made and trying to understand why but also recognizing issues you have.
Keep thinking and growing. You’ll do fine.
I also didn’t have friends growing up. It’s never too late, just can take more effort. I didn’t really start thriving until after college.
- Comment on Health Secretary Kennedy says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism 1 month ago:
It’s cool. I’ll just give them paracetamol. They won’t know
- Comment on Is it weird to simultaneously feel love and hatred towards parents? 1 month ago:
It really depends on why you hate them. Lots of parents truly care but are terrible at expressing anything other than commands. This can lead to a lot of tension as you grow older and begin to want more freedom.
My parents were abusive assholes. Mother was a classic narcissist who would make us compete for signs of her affection. I hate her completely for how she raised us, but recognize that part of her had to actually care as she did put a lot of effort into our education.
It’s a complex relationship between a parent and child.

That reminds me. Need to go clone some grape cultivars and do some more guerilla gardening at my buddy’s house
- Comment on 'This is definitely my last TwitchCon': High-profile streamer Emiru was assaulted at the event, even as streamers have been sounding the alarm about stalkers and harassment 1 month ago:
I don’t know if they’re accustomed to the norms more but Hooters starts as in person encounter. It’s already a very different dynamic from lurking online amongst hundreds watching a person knowing they can’t see you.
- Comment on arborholing 1 month ago:
Sadly I’ve still never seen any real papers on this being an actual theory.
I’m still want to believe I’m Ent livestock though.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 2 months ago:
It’s not always about the user count though. It’s about your end goals. There’s two types of social engineering. Mass and targeted. You’re focusing on the mass social engineering.
Say you want specific information on how Crowdstrike works. You could launch a massive social engineering campaign on Twitter but if you don’t catch any of the engineers who work at Crowdstrike then what’s the point? You just spent all that money for nothing. It would be better to find where those engineers socialize online and try to inject yourself there, doesn’t matter the size of that community and it could very well be on Lemmy in one of the programmer communities.
Now if you want to convince the entire world of something then yeah, focus on the big user counts, don’t worry about the small fry communities. It’s all about your end goal.
