A key reminder the "One vote doesn't matter." argument is bull crap when hundreds of thousands of people have that mentality. One vote doesn't matter when everyone else actually votes. Hundreds of thousands are not voting. Stop being a prick and go vote.

This is why you go to subject matter experts.

/Software development rant

These are the same assholes who sound like a jackhammer when they walk in apartments.

The irony being the video game industry is currently one of the most unstable and corrupt industries right now. Video game CEOs are raking in money while the actual creatives are being fired left and right. There is serious brain drain and a mental health crisis is occurring.

Bruh I'd be just as atrocious regardless of gender.

Unpredictable: "Our requirements are constantly changing due to bad planning."

High energy: "There will be a lot of yelling."

There has been legal precedent that terms of use are not legally binding since they don't expect customers to read it before clicking the I Agree button. They have made the agreements so long and put them in everything that they concluded there is no possible way anybody would ever read all of it for everything.

For a brief moment I worked in that industry as a programmer. The whole point is not to find the most qualified candidate but to find the one that fits into the company culture the most in order to reduce turnover. These algorithms will throw away applications from people of color because they have "behaviors not in line with the company culture" or applications from disabled people because they would "not react properly to certain situations".

Of course they aren't explicitly rejecting these people, but the questions and answers on the tests for applications are specifically and painstakingly crafted to filter out these people without making it clear what type of person the question is trying to filter out.

This doesn't necessarily have to do with the AI in question, but my point is that the entire hiring/firing process is totally fucked, and companies are constantly looking for ways to get around discrimination laws.

If the product you purchased no longer works on a promised platform due to a developer update you were sold a product that was not as advertised. Steam will refund you in this case, and it comes out of the developer's (publisher's) pocket.

Hit the ground running deploying...pretty much anything.

Was running game servers on my Windows PC through Docker and they were super easy to set up. I got a new PC and decided to repurpose my old computer into an Ubuntu server to get some experience with Unix. I have only been more frustrated once in my entire life. Sure, once things are set up on Linux they are really powerful, but the barrier to entry is so absurdly high and running anything "out of the box" is literally impossible by design.

The problem is that they will never acknowledge that they were the ones that caused them to get to that point. That is why we are here today.

Fear and power do a lot, and there is a whole legal section about how contracts signed under duress against the person's interests are not legally binding.

Like you, this is the first I've heard of this so I don't have any opinions at this time.
