I think that’s honestly how it goes. If you’re efficient and just get more tasks, or get called off for not working (if you’re done with work and doing something else), then you have to pace yourself. Lot if work I get is copy paste this from here to here that takes hours, I could have written an script to do all that in the time I spent cooy pasting, but then I’d be the only one who could do it again. Even though the next time it’d take 5-10 minutes

Yeah. I think sometimes it comes from using a lot of shitty softwares that only work with “happy path” so they like to repeat what works and won’t experiment (because that means repeated work).

I have a lot of “we have to do it this way”, me: “this is better”, them: “we always do this way”.

As well as, me:“hey it’s easier this way, I think clients will like this way, even if we do the original they have to switch eventually”, them: “no, they asked for this, we NEED to do this”, me: “can we ask?”, them: “…”, i talked to the clients and they were already thinking about the new one and had no problem, saved us weeks of work trying to back port an already existing solution

Yup I had a HR personally message me saying the person I recommended doesn’t have a certification needed for the job. They have that in a different state, getting it in the state the job is in is as simple as saying “hey I passed the same exams you guys take (it’s national), I’m registered and practicing in that other state, can I get approved here?” And they say “sure”. It’s small documentation and a bit of waiting period, but that’s shorter than the training period of the job itself. I said a bit about that but they’re like they don’t have it in this state. Which I’d understand if it’s just a way to say no without saying that person is not qualified for other reasons. Because most other openings I see in our industry gives the candidates 6months to get the certificate because it’s easy

Assume all that is true, AI can really do well in these fields, but there are some other fields it can’t do well in.

Now who is going to work on those fields? Who is going to take the risk of studying for it, practicing for years, being an expert in the field that takes maybe a decade, and the AI can suddenly solve your field too, and you don’t get anything.

You aren’t faster at checking it out per item. The supermarkets are just keeping it understaffed all the time so the human checkout has a long wait while self checkout does not, so it’s faster to not wait. I try to not use self checkout, but if I have a few items it just makes me feel guilty about making other people wait behind me.

As they keep having understaffed situations, sometimes there’s no other option except self checkout. Which honestly should be illegal.

Most problems with straight dating apps is too many guys and too little girls. So if someone is dedicated enough to make something like, they don’t have the reach to get to girls to sign up. Unless they are marketing minded, then they just wanna make money with their “idea”

Auto complete is a separate command (or a bash function) that runs when you press tab. It’s a feature of the terminal (e.g. bash). Programs can provide theur auto complete while distributing their packages, or provide a flag to generate auto complete.

So I would think you can just call that function call auto complete for whatever command is after sudo. But maybe it gets complicated. I’ve only written it for my own programs.

Why not if it’s for sudo, can’t sudo just redirect the auto complete to ask based on the command after sudo?

This is what I was thinking. I’m not worried about the AI that they’re running. I’m worried about the mindset that might be doing it under some belief they have, or tendencies to think of certain things

You could still open text editors from GUI. Many of them have csv specific features like rainbow colors, column alignments, etc. and for less number of columns having large number of rows don’t matter because text editors are designed for that.

Unless you need to add/remove columns, in that case I just use libre office calc/excel depending on what os I’m in if I need GUI. But mostly I just use python if I’m programming.

The usb part that actually stores the data is actually similarly small in size,the port however needs to be that size

I just use a text editor (emacs in my case). Is there a specific reason you want a GUI?

If you only know private key and not public key then isn’t it the same as only knowing public key? I thought those were interchangeable

What if I write a program that checks argv[0] to decide which part of the code to run, and makes a bunch of symlinks

In Arch I just copy the . desktop application to the system directory through makepkg and it works.

I think using tiling based windows is one of the things that makes it easier for single monitor. I use i3 and it’s way quicker to refer to something on another workspace compared to if I were to have them in separate monitors or stacked views. When using extra monitors i just have it open browser most of the time.

You don’t need multiple screens to code. You can split inside your editor if you need to look at two things, otherwise you just jump between things. Faster thank having to use multiple things

Arch now has archinstall. So the setup is pretty fast. And if you sync your dotfiles, and have a list of packages to install, you can setup in an hour or so

From someone who installed manjaro because I thought it’d be easier arch, but did not last more than a month

I live like this, it has been 10 years, no problem

I’ve used inkscape to edit PDFs. It’s not perfect but it’s really good. I think it might not do the best job of recovering original objects (idk if that’s possible given how PDFs work), but it can show them as they render and you can modify those objects.
