Where's the gay Republicans on this? Especially ole black dude that had so much to say about Kendrick Lamar's halftime...

Really not understanding the naysayers at this point. Dude is looking at the data and still saying he doesn't think it's AI. Just saw today that Zillow has non-tech folks releasing code into production. Make it make sense. It's impacting hiring TODAY! blog.pragmaticengineer.com/software-eng...

Wow you can't make this shit up.

If this is how devs are still using AI, fancy code completion and a refactor here and there I think they may be missing the boat. The OOP reference also stuck out to me as a problem. Not a fan and wonder if folks want AI to write that needlessly complex mess. thenewstack.io/augment-code...

Now how much you want to bet it's only certain business owners they go after. Farmer Whyte up the road doesn't have to worry I'm sure.

Kinda torn on this. I've always been one to press understanding of things vs rote memory. On the other hand I want to ask "How good is your assembly language? Can you do any of this in C from scratch?" I do think you have to look at AI as the next abstraction layer. nmn.gl/blog/ai-and-...

Hey New Yorkers....this is squarely a retaliatory move isn't it...🤔

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that right wing folks that type stuff like the "flu" have never actually had it. They just call every sniffle they get the flu and have no idea what it is or is like.

Did Sabine discover that Musk was coming after women too with "DUI"? Her song sure hit a modulation here. 🤔 #science youtu.be/pXx5Ziwh6is?...

Anyone that's followed SpaceX knows they fail fast and forwards. They figure shit out by crashing big ass rockets. I support that method of discovery. But our lives are not something you can crash and figure out as you go.

Can you all PLEASE let the MAGAts get a foothold over here? I need them to explain some shit.

I think I'm gone turn in my gamer card. 😞 www.pcgamer.com/games/dark-s...

This is exactly what I've been saying. The power to build a tech business is being democratized. I see lots of devs twisting and turning to make AI seem unfit. Stop fighting so hard you may find that it can work for you. Or else it will work against you. www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

So if I were to ask my teacher to call me Greg "Hot Wheels" Abbott instead of just Greg would that warrant an investigation or no? 🤔

No bro say it ain't so. There's no free speech no mo!

Happy Monday, President's Day #BlueCrew Raise your hand 🖐️ if you will join us in speaking out! 💯 I want all of my 131K Friends to Follow YOU! #DonkParty 🎉 Like 💙 and Repost ♻️ and you will meet NEW Friends 🚀 Who is with us? ✋ #MEGABOOST

Same as not having stepped foot in a Fortune 500 or tech company "Muricans" have no idea how their government works. They are simpletons that want everything to be as simple as their country lives. Musk is offering them this by cutting everything too complex for their understanding.

Say it with me. The government is not a business. It cannot fail fast and fail forward. It cannot fail at all. It's everyone's lives not a balance sheet. All these folks that have never stepped foot in tech or a Fortune 500 talking about Musk donating time are comical. www.yahoo.com/news/many-th...

Yes very amazing how they flip flop their asses off.

Drive that shit straight into the ground. And as much as I love SpaceX drive that shit out of existence too. I really don't follow any of my space channels that cover SpaceX indifferently now. You can't be so into Musk you call him by his first name and ignore this all. futurism.com/tesla-employ...

The gentleman's agreement that we call the Constitution does not work. Trump and Elon are proving that. I believe it is dead either way. Even if we rid ourselves of these tyrants a new system must be put in place. One based on logic in modern times and that has teeth.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

C yes (though I prefer Odin and maybe Zig) but Java and JavaScript naw. Kotlin is the path away from Java to me. www.itprotoday.com/programming-...

Now remember Musk thinks of Ukraine that they should just give up whatever is taken and occupied by Russia. Wondering if he feels the same about his Tesla stores. 🤔 www.kxan.com/elon-musk/pr...

At this point I think she's auditioning to be Elon Musk's German liason. #science youtu.be/shFUDPqVmTg?...

Only from the minds of right wing racist tards. A mixed race person identifies as black and "they're not black". This chick gets casted as a white character and "she's not white like the original character". 🙄 Trump's America screenrant.com/how-to-train...

The country and rural life is cool but it's not for everyone. Stop trying to ram it down everybody's throats and make it the national identity. If you want to turn back the hands of time to mule drawn plows do that on your own land. The rest of us value science and tech and want to move forward.

So tell me BlueSky folks. Any good nav apps out there with live traffic that aren't owned by Google and know what that body of water in the middle of the pic is called instead of Trump's nickname? Anything built around Open Street Maps? 🤔 www.forbes.com/sites/dimita...

As I'm having AI write an app for me (Aider is nice!) something hit me. I'm using Gemini Flash 2 Thinking and it started writing a lot of TODOS instead of implementing code. Same stuff a dev might leave for later. Did it learn this from devs or did it learn to make me burn more tokens ($$$)? 🤔

Ok ...didn't see this coming :) #EliteDangerous and Space game people.... Check. This. Out. o7 (Also worth knowing just in case... Use the code “BUURPIT” to get a 5% discount off their products at any point). www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDN3...

The problem isn't Musk. The problem isn't Trump. Vivek Ramaswamy explained the problem and he was quickly sidelined because of that. The problem is the mass of simpletons that don't understand what is and is not in their own interest. Kdot put them in plain site for us. We MUST stop the simpletons!

You mean to tell me these tard boys are this dumb? #blacksky

Ok folks hear me out. Let's allow the MAGtards some space over here so they can answer questions like where is all the money they believe is being saved going to go... Oh and whether they can find eggs right now.

Glad the wagons are starting to circle.

Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

This is what y'all wanted though. Enjoy!

A friend of mine just posted this on Facebook so thought I'd share it here... 😏 Sadly I can't make out the signature in the bottom left corner to credit them proper.
