There was a doctor who said to me, “computer games can be addictive”. This was after I told her I play games, so she was pretty much implying that I was getting addicted. This was when I hadn’t played for over a month due to lack of time from my 9 to 6:30 job.
The same doctor bragged about how she couldn’t go about her day without drinking coffee right after waking up.

She said those 2 things within the same 5 minutes.

The effects of technology do not occur at the level of opinions or concepts, but alter sense ratios or patterns of perception steadily and without any resistance.

This is a nice one.
And I see it happening right in front of my eyes at work. ‘How it is used’ will defer by the individual and specially for new tools, there will always be a generation of suffering.
Project Management, Jira/scrum etc had one (I’d say, still ongoing for most workplaces, that haven’t figured out the correct match). This one will too; probably more of it.

Because it is easier to read large codebases of Python than large codebases of Bash.

Loved the “for AI only” Section.

No magic. It’s all just software.

I did REJ a few times to recover from problems with a VM causing problems with S3 sleep.

So now they are doing it server-side?

Their actual owners sure can.

They even went for something as simple as amdgpu-fancontrol-git, which doesn’t even get any updates!
btw I had just downloaded it separately and changed the script to match my stuff, so I wouldn’t have updated.

I left PayPal because they asked for a video instead of a proper method of verification.

Perhaps there will be a future generation that saves IPv6 addresses like we do phone numbers.
But then the ISP will ask for Yoti 🤦

I think I should start checking if a poster has a history of regularly deleting posts/comments, before trying to give a useful answer.

There’s ambiguity in the above conversation.

1. The original post tells me that SWF has made the software and is giving it to ACQ; ACQ is asking SG for modification.

2. @litchralee@sh.itjust.works seems to understand it this way: ACQ has made the software and is giving it to SWF and wants SG to do further modifications.

3. The comment that I am replying to, won’t make @litchralee@sh.itjust.works (who is assuming [2.]) realise [1.].

The Maths HOD was my professor.

Yeah, that might make it easier when he feels the need to report the professor to the HOD.
Except it doesn’t matter when the HOD just wants to shit on you, because they can just say that you are good at AI-ing and that’s how you did it.

In other words, if one doesn’t have power, they aren’t a pacifist, just weak.
Only once they have the ability to decimate the enemy, do they get to claim that they didn’t use said ability.

That’s cryptographically signed and therefore strong evidence of what you wrote when, and what you were thinking.

This logic doesn’t work out in the given place.

Cryptographical signatures are used to determine that the thingy was made by the person you trust.
Problem is, in this case, the creator of those commits is the one that is not being trusted.

The professor will just go, “Oh you made it with AI and then used git commit!”.

I have had a similar experience in the past, where I made some MATLAB code for a Mathematics course, which the professor said I had copied from someone else (pre-AI times), because he had given the same assignment to other people in the university. This, he claimed without even looking at what I made and without remembering the specific question he had passed to me.

I think Dillo might work fine too.
Not a modern browser though, as it hasn’t been updated for HTML5.

I remember when postman used to bring little envelopes (sometimes little boxes) to people’s homes and was paid by tax money and the small amount of postal fees we paid.
