There’s an earlier bit that complements that nicely:

“it turns out that the core competency of smiling and promising people things that you can’t actually deliver is highly transferable.”

And then, one day, I got in.

Ok, well, if you ever come across a test framework named AuTest, you can blame me, because I’m stealing the shit out of that.

The “Brick through a widow” bug has been an active exploit since the Model T.

Enabling the PIN mitigates this issue entirely. Can’t drive it away if you don’t know the PIN, even if you have the physical key, fob, or phone.

Genes are very small, so, you know, technically correct

Up until now most people hated when shit randomly popped up while they were typing.

The Apple went and made the iPhone and now we have a whole generation that expects it.

This ad is literally the perfect opposite of their famous Think different ad:

We have an actual gigantic, unfeeling machine, literally crushing an effigy of the sum total of human creativity, only to proudly declare that everyone now needs to do all those things in the same, apple-approved way.

And the real irony is that’s the actual message they’re trying to get across.

Have you considered writing your own projects that you have to hide from your employers, and be careful with whom you discuss, so as to avoid the legal complications of the company owning your work?

Lemmy’s bigger than ever, and that’s a direct consequence of reddit’s enshittification, so there’s that at least.

Imagine scrolling back in the Slack chat 50 years to find that one thing someone said about how the chip bypass worked.

Exactly! You actually CAN have 50 people finish something 50x faster, but it takes a shitload of planning, and that equals time and money no company I have ever worked for, or even known of, would allocate to something that isn’t generating immediate income.

Take the Hoover Dam for example: Dsigned over 3 ish years and built in 5, at a time when nothing that huge had ever been made before, at less than a billion in today money, and 2 years ahead of schedule. It’s 90 years old.

It doesn’t pay well, but “park ranger” is exactly that.

Fuck. That’s exactly it.

so far

I’m gonna need a bell curve hooded figure meme template of this comment, this is comedy gold.

nothing, it’s an open standard now: SAE J3400

Once more, I’m literally not injecting an opinion here or arguing for or against anyone’s point. All the articles here talked about counts of individual accidents with zero context about sample size, something that is absolutely crucial to establishing exactly what you’re talking about, rates. You can shit all over that, and then pretend you didn’t, but Im only pointing out that the math doesn’t work unless that context is there.

(I find it funny that the article you just posted is literally an ad for a traffic accident lawyer: here’s the study the ad is citing. The ad did some creative interpretation on those numbers, ignoring things like DUI’s for example: https://www.lendingtree.com/insurance/brand-incidents-study/#:~:text=Tesla drivers have the highest accident rate compared with all,over 20.00 per 1%2C000 drivers.)
