Some of them, sure. Usually old people that ran out of neuroplasticity 40 years ago. But there are a lot more that function well enough and IT guys have a tendency to think of them as useless, where if they had to do their job for a day they’d be as lost as an old guy spooked by the window location change.

His YouTube shorts (500/day goal) is videos of Elon musk saying thing, with the background music alternating between the sigma male tune and the movie clip tune.

You work on computers, they work on people. Part of their job is working on their bosses for more money, just like you write a bash script.
If you want, you could develop those people
manipulationcoding skills and be twice as valuable as them. - Comment on Windows users don't want copilot on their taskbar 6 months ago:
So programming is gonna go from a “search, understand basics, change, copy/paste” industry to a “I breathe compiler optimization, pay me money” industry?
Can’t say I’m that upset, it had to happen eventually.

Somehow I don’t think they’d mind too much, provided you give them a nice leech habitat.

made out of plastic (nonstick material)
So is it plastic or PFAS?
- Comment on But Claude said tumor! 7 months ago:
A friend sent me MRI brain scan results
Without more context I have to assume friend was still convinced of brain tumor, knew friend knew and talked about Claude, said friend ran results through Claude and told friend who’s brain was scanned that Claude gave a positive result, and friend went to multiple doctors for a second, third, fourth opinion.
In America we have to advocate hard when there is an ongoing, still unsolved issue, and that includes using all tools at your disposal.

That… doesn’t look like a makeshift crack pipe to smoke DMT?
Maybe Vic and Garfield had more ethnobotany knowledge than the comic let on and they’re puffing changa. Maybe that’s why Garfield can talk.

Grow dope, gain hope, become self suffic-an?
- Comment on Help me out 7 months ago:
Yup. It’s like an actor getting typecast as a tough guy who always kicks ass and never gets his ass kicked, makes tons of money from it, and then everyone complaining about him only ever playing a tough guy.
I’m sure a few names come to mind. But they’re rich and stuck in that role because most people subconsciously agreed they should be rich and stuck in that role.
It’s like democracy.

- Comment on For folks who write for Medium.com, what's your engagement like, and how much do you make? 1 year ago:
Nope, that’s about standard or even better than most, unless you’re doing it full-time.
- Comment on For folks who write for Medium.com, what's your engagement like, and how much do you make? 1 year ago:
Unless you’re making more than $16 each month (most are not making anywhere close to that) from Medium then you’re just choosing another company to profit off of you. It’s also more work and takes a lot (arguably, depending on your technical comfort level) more time.
Do you own the content that you publish on Medium?
Yes. Everything you publish on Medium, that is rightfully yours, belongs to you and you can republish, delete or choose to convert it into other forms without worrying about anything because Medium gives you the ownership. They have clearly explained this in the Medium terms of service.
Medium (company) might use your content to redistribute, translate or modify, and they need your permission for this. They need licensing for this because of the Medium rule; “You own your content”
Medium is like an ocean in part because it’s so easy and free. There are some really spectacular fish and animals and rare finds and even shipwrecks full of gold and treasure. There is also a metric shit-ton of mediocrity.
- Comment on For folks who write for Medium.com, what's your engagement like, and how much do you make? 1 year ago:
The thing about medium is that it’s a trusted domain + mailing list + blog + search engine in one. All you have to do is sign up and start writing, for free.
Sure you can have your own domain, and spin up a cheap VPS which has WordPress or other blogging software, pay MailChimp to actually inbox your emails, use Google Analytics or some open source complex privacy-focused analytics, and then set up your advertisements if you actually want to make money from it. That’s a lot of time invested and very expensive relatively (compared to free).

Dude, if you’re struggling that much, I’ll pay for a few months for you so you can try it out. $15 for 3 months, or do you have to pay yearly? I have no experience with medium but I get a ton of good info from medium articles and it’s a great resource.

The “to” field is showing whatever his name is on Facebook, I believe it’s done by formatting as “Name To Send To”
- Comment on Why do surge protectors continue to draw power from the wall even if switched off or if nothing's connected to them? 1 year ago:
Ah I was aware they made surge protectors without battery backup, but I wrongly thought they were both just ‘surge protectors’ and wondered if OP somehow left out that his had a battery backup.
- Comment on Why do surge protectors continue to draw power from the wall even if switched off or if nothing's connected to them? 1 year ago:
Surely you thought of this, but a lot of surge protectors have (used to have?) a battery backup for short outages. Keeps the PC on so you can save your data.
- Comment on Do folks managing servers mainly do so via command-line interfaces? 1 year ago:
If you’re single lining them all every time then sure, but if it’s a repeatable task then just make an alias for it, and make love of &&.
- Comment on Do folks managing servers mainly do so via command-line interfaces? 1 year ago:
Yeah but usually those 4 buttons are running 20 command lines in the background so it takes just as long; may as well customize any of the commands to your liking while you’re taking the same amount of time.
