If perfect AI as tools that elevate our lives, then why we will no longer need other people in our lives?

I’m actually happy I just came here to take a look at old rants. I wish I knew better times were coming for me and I would’ve taken it easy.
Don’t lose hope everyone, survive!

What the fuck do you want to do in life?

that urge to go work for AI smart city data surveillance green energy people

I disagree with them but because I disagree I like wanna be a spy lol

huh, when frustrated and on stimmies hard, fast, rhythmic techno music is quite calming

well that makes sense

wonder if that's how I had so much equanimity during various periods of my life where I was in utter rage but nobody knew a thing, tehe

If jews get to have their own state because nazi germany genocided them, then so are communists and gipsies. And gays.

We could call it queerland or something

I've had to create a very simple frontend feature connected to an API. That part works flawlessly but we have rewritten a bunch of code in the system for a certain hardware device.

Now the person that was working on the backend just said today he has no device to test it on lab environment. Neither does any colleague apparently

And guess who got a meeting with the CEO, COO, sales people and the project manager for a demo of that said feature :D

My sister bought an Acer A315-44P laptop in which the keyboard and the top cover are one unit and everything else is built onto that part, meaning that replacing the keyboard involves disassembling the entire laptop, the keyboard is among the most expensive replacement parts, and it's unique to the model. This is already infuriating and it's hard to attribute it to gross incompetence rather than deliberate malice motivated by unchecked greed, but what makes it completely indefensible is that their European parts distributors don't stock this part for most models so third party repair shops can't easily obtain one.

But to seal the whole ridiculous charade, THE FIRST-PARTY REPAIR SHOP DOESN'T PICK UP THE FUCKING PHONE. I've already capitulated, just accept my fucking money! What, do they really expect that if I have to go out and buy another laptop because they made it hard to fix, they won't fix it, and won't let me fix it, that I'll ever buy Acer again? What is the strategy here? Do they think they're Apple, so people take this bullshit? But even Apple has a repair service! I don't understand this business model at all.

ChatGPTs UI is so bad it probably was implemented with ChatGPT...

White people decided to rename female circumcision, a traditional practice that takes place among Khoisan, Nyakyusa and Khoekhoe people, to “female genital mutilation”.

The amount of suffering that white people caused to the Africans is immeasurable. And now, white people decide to export their “culture” to Africa, and to tell African women what they can and cannot do to their own private parts? For those of you who don’t know, it’s women circumcising other women.

Can whites just fuck off for once? Let African people write their own laws on their land, and practice their own culture.

If they choose to go to your country, that’s a different story. But as long as they practice their culture among themselves on their own land, fuck off!

Carpeted toilet seat.

I don't know why, but the backrooms sound, e.g. the generic transformer hum, is so soothing to me. Call me crazy, but oh how I want my room, and maybe my entire apartment, to resemble a 2000's office. Think cs_office map, but for real!

I know it's probably because of my childhood, but I constantly feel like I'm being watched. Not just watched, but at any time a vague authority figure will rush into my room and make me do things because I'm long overdue on everything for some reason.

This notion somehow completely falls apart when I'm inside some office, the closer to 2000's in aesthetics, the better. I don't feel comfortable in luxurious interiors, or in Hygge-inducing Scandinavian interiors, or at "home" (I have no feeling of home). But 2000's office is my anxiety's kryptonite.

My dream is to have a cubicle at home. And that the door to my room should have that thing that automatically closes it. And the lock made by Abloy. Old office-style carpeted floor. Vertical metal shades. And let this paradise drown in soothing 60 cycle hum.

I have so much words about this, don't even know where to start.

This made me angry, like really angry. Every minute is disturbing.

so good to go back to code you wrote 6 years ago, and realize you improved both its readability and its computation complexity in a more recent rewrite

it's like you won bingo against yourself or something

rust has taught me discipline

my life-long disposition to laziness is suddenly no more

I hate it, thanks

I've always viewed the unlazy and highly disciplined as a loser class. now what

Am i the only one who fucking loves it when YouTubers find old “call toll free” numbers or old numbers for various sweepstakes/contests, games, help hotlines whatever and actually call them? Especially when they still work….

I vibecoded ransomware that replaced files with their hashes instead of encrypting them and now Raytheon begs me to accept $12M ransom help

Because of all the injustice done to a regular folk by the banks and megacorporations, as well as the parts of government that value those two higher than doing the right thing for the regular people, piracy is all but justified.

For me, piracy is the default option. When it comes to stuff made by a megacorp, the first thing I do is see if I can pirate that. I would argue that piracy should be the default option for everyone.

No, you're not depriving corpo staff/hires of their salaries by pirating. If a megacorp is not paying them, it's not your fault.

I only pay for content if I want to support the creators. I was pirating since I got my first computer, I do pirate right now, and I will pirate in the future. I will advocate for piracy.

Spent 4 days fixing ‚bugs‘ in the PhD thesis of my wife. While LaTeX worked great this APA citation style should die ASAP.

I’ve been trying to implement an alarm clock as an example for my physical computing lecture but the merge of my existing low power clock with my existing state machine based timer is driving me nuts. And I’m the lecturer of this course!

Hi folks of Devrant,

I’m looking for a remote job.
I’ve built multiple products over 10 years in startups and have skills in C#, Java, AWS, and SQL.

I’d appreciate any referrals if you know someone hiring.

Not sure if posts like this are allowed. I'll delete if it breaks the rules.

What would you do if you found out your child was a homosapien?

People really drive 90mph to get to work.

lol... turns out the people in Africa are enslaved because they have no access to organic normal seeds... they're given GMO seeds that obviously can't reproduce so that Monsanto can keep "selling" new seeds over and over again, that don't reproduce

we're gonna get to this level. the future the globalist desire
