I'd assume shareholders value is still increasing, so it wouldn't be a problem for them.

You are right, this isn't real. It's an 'alternate reality corporation'.

It's all just one big state machine.

On my current project, any deploy that we want to do to an AWS environment, including dev, takes at least 10 minutes. So, as soon as you have to work on AWS functionality, you are transported to the past, similarly to the programmers of old. I'm not saying this is a bad thing actually, just to note that we still haven't managed to eliminate the "turn-around time".

Funny, me experience is quite opposite. Also in eastern europe, takes me 30 minutes on foot to get to the office. And the walk is quite enjoyable!

Oh, but what if you had a text based implementation of cyberpunk? Where your imagination is the GPU (the best one there is)

Civil engineers actually have liability, they can go to prison. Software "engineers", not so much.

Hm, I disagree. I have two desktops that I dualboot with windows 10 and various linux distros, currently ubuntu lts. If you install windows first then linux, it should work ok.

Hm, maybe a Boston dynamics robot could drop a USB in front of NORAD?

I actually just make my personal home directory in the root of the filesystem. So /me. If /root can have it, why can't I? It is my machine after all.

>By the same logic we'd criminalize pissing in public places

Is public urination not a crime? One that gets you on a sex offender registry?

But people won't smoke a pack of joints a day. Only, like, one per week or so.

I'm quite excited for conversing with next generations of AI using COBOL. All those people saying COBOL is dead will finally be proven wrong!

I mean, reading this article, seems like the author still had to put in a lot of work to get something decent. Kinda makes GPT not look like an all powerful content generator: it steels need a human to use it correctly.

Yeah, as sibling said, they are quite different games actually. Rogue to me feels a lot more minimalist, while nethack is 'everything AND a kitchen sink!'.

This sounds like a (horrible) way to implement universal basic income. Just hire puffer people, have them do nothing. They get fired, hire them somewhere else, rinse, repeat.
