Not what I’m saying at all. I’m saying America won’t be destroyed, it will morph to something else, something that will likely be more radical than it is now. I don’t think anyone should want that, but that is what Trump is doing. He’s not destroying the bad stuff, he’s actively bolstering that and killing the good stuff. I’m not defending America at all, just pointing out that it can and will get worse on this current path.

I feel this. I relatively recently pivoted into dev work for my career. I really enjoy it because we haven’t forced AI into our workflows… Yet. We had a couple devs run an experiment to see who could finish an app first, where one generated as much as they could and another did it all manually. It wasn’t even close. The manual job was faster to completion and good.

Unfortunately for me, my time is being split and I’ve been tasked to upskill on all of the different automation and AI tools that we have, because dumbass VPs drank the Kool aid, bought shit, and didn’t hire experience to configure and run those tools. I’ve been reading so much garbage trying to master copilot studio, and honestly it’s the worst product I’ve ever had to work with. I’m going to be having a heart to heart with my manager in the near future, and if I’m still stuck on the AI shit, I’m bouncing. I’ll use what time I have to bolster my dev skills and leaving. If I can’t find a dev job, it looks like I’ll be pivoting my career again, and I’ve been thinking something like electrician. Honest work, not has hard on the body as say construction, and I feel it could still be mentally engaging compared to some other trades.

God speed on your future endeavors. Fuck AI.

I’m not an electrician, but I have a relative that is. You nailed it. We’ve got a couple DCs going up near by, and he was asked to commit to a 2 year commitment for just one of them, working exactly the hours you said. He agreed because I think they are paying double time for all OT, and that’s good money. They asked if he wanted to sign on for the other DC but he declined for the obvious time reasons. It’s definitely had an effect on available workers for other projects since seemingly all hand are on deck.

I’m not familiar with the architecting process, but I can absolutely see how AI will be, if not already, involved with generating plans. It will shit something out faster than anyone could create it, but it will lose that value in review and the inevitable mistakes that make it through. AI is a cancer

His destruction of the US isn’t literal in that the US will cease to exist. If it gets real bad, like civil war bad, there will still be a military, and there will be lots of radicalization. Think about how the middle east was destabilized by the US in the 80s, 90s, and onward, and then think if that was good for the world. Now imagine if that happened to the US instead. The “world police” won’t stop being bastards, it will likely just get more heinous, like bombing little girl schools, which is an escalation from the previous atrocities committed.

They’d at least know what irony tastes like though.

I would suggest not watching motorsports if I were you then.

It looks like some of them can but not all. I would have guessed not, so that’s surprising to me.

For all of the people from there that have been harping at the US for its citizens to do something about this regime, time to nut up or shut up.

I rephrased in a follow up to someone else’s comment. The people that ordered the strike on old Intel should be charged. There were failures in the process, and those responsible should be held responsible.

I suppose I don’t know. I should rephrase that whoever knew and ordered it should be in the hot seat. Word is that it was old target data they were going on. That by itself is a failure if true, which isn’t excusable. I’d be interested in when that school was built or transitioned to a school and the age of the data. This may be the result of a pedophile and his hair trigger war drive that meant due diligence wasn’t done.

Russia doesn’t have a Fifa peace prize recipient running the country.

Yes, but don’t give the soldiers that pulled the trigger a pass. They’re legally required to not follow illegal orders. All of them should be court marshalled and charged with war crimes.

It’s a long shot, but it would be nice if these sleepers and the leadership activating them understood that there’s a very specific demographic of Americans that wish ill on Iran and Muslims where the rest are disgusted by the current actions and have support for most Iranians and Muslims. It would at least narrow down their potential targets if there were going to be something that happens.

Be better than the US, Iran. Don’t blow up a school. Look at voter maps and find the redist locations if you want to hurt this doing the most hurting.

They were fuckin children, that’s for sure.

Allegedly.

Fun fact… You don’t have to visit a place to know their history.

Do you not know how to read?

It’s unfortunate and disgusting that the US and Israel action are having an effect on Europe. But Europe should also have done everything in their power to get off of Russian oil years ago when they invaded Ukraine. There was opportunity to protect themselves, and wasn’t fully taken. It’s still fucked that they are affected by someone else’s actions. This should be a wake up call to everyone, but governments seemingly don’t respond well to wake up calls historically.

Fuck bots.

… How?
