Chill out, I already had enough reasons to not use those sites.

Tesla bought over $2 million worth of lidar sensors from Luminar this year

I spent so much time with this thing. Moon Patrol was my jam.

Awesome. How much more time off to google software engineers get? I guess it’s none.

Does this mean “AI was used as a fancy autocomplete”? Because that’s my number 1 use case for AI like copilot, and if that’s the case, over 25% of my code is written by AI. But let me tell you, it still gets it wrong, repeatedly making the same syntax errors no matter how many times I correct it. It starts to get it right, then later reverts to making the same syntax errors, even making up variable names that violate widely known public APIs.

Moving towards the equator made me hate winter a lot less. Having more consistent daylight throughout the year made a big difference for me.

Seriously! What is smart about these things? It’s smart not to buy this bullshit. It’s 1984 doublespeak just like the “open” in “OpenAI”.

The phrase “these days” makes it sound like there’s more to it than this thread. Obviously after this post nobody would want to buy LG, but it sounds like there are other reasons.

Why? What made you go from favorite monitors to “eat shit”?

It says “Smart Monitor” right there in the pic.

Yes. All the time.

“Dear god, are you sure?”

Sure, but there’s no verification when calling a cab so you can use an alias if you want.

So less like I, Robot and more like Surrogates.

How did Mr. Bungle think he could pull it off without messing it up?

Cool story. Rust didn’t exist when I switched from php to Python.

Thanks for sharing a modern php codebase. It makes me confident that giving it up and switching to Python was the right choice.

That’s a very “Citizens United” definition of “nobody”
