Yeah well “Dr” Oz is running Medicare and Medicaid now.

“Oh geez there I go again, dropping my 9/11 drawings”

What the fuck for?

The term you’re looking for is government-subsidized fossil fuels.

I agree. Though those take-home assignments are easily faked too. We do a sort of pair-programming interview where we present a real task/feature we did in the past, and talk it through while they use a scaffolding we provide in CoderPad. It’s far from a flawless method; people sometimes get nervous and shut down, but most people don’t. I treat it as something we can do together (though they’re writing the code) and root for them to solve it. If I need to, I try to nudge them in the right direction to see how they react to that.

That seems like so much more work than just learning shit and working for real.

Oh I’m a big fan of him. Currently reading through all his books.

I smell a new season of Black Mirror

Having recently been an interviewer for a programming position, we saw a ton of people cheating using LLMs. It was pretty obvious. What were they thinking, that they could fool us, get the job, and …. then fail because they don’t know how to do what they’re hired to do? It was an insulting waste of everyone’s time.

Good news for you, Kagi just made the first 50 searches free for anybody without creating an account.

No offense, but that was my little game 😉

With all due respect, you only insulted me once.

In Europe, Apple has been forced to allow sideloading. So you could have an iPhone without any Google apps on it, and sideload stuff like that. In the US, not so much.

As an aside, I use an iPhone without any Google apps, which is technically “degoogled”. Doesn’t stop people in this community from claiming I fail their purity tests though.

This sparks joy

That’s the organization that helps with domestic disasters, usually hurricanes/earthquakes/floods and the like. So kill that org and people will be on their own when disasters happen.

There is a delay in data collection and availability.
