If the models start buying up a bunch of pods and causing damage, couldn't those services just shut off their access?

Good read, I was so curious how this happened a few months ago

It may take awhile, but it ends by voting in political candidates that actually care about combatting greed and corruption again

If i'm looking at git history, the ticket number is the most useful piece of info to get more context on the changes for me

I paid for the annual Pro plan in January...I know this mentions new users right now, but is there a chance they just take Code away?!

It certainly benefits insiders that can bet on outcomes they directly control

Also just generally worried about the mental health of engineers out there right now, with the rapidly changing processes, and the constant messaging that you may no longer have a job soon. Feel like I don't see many people talking about it.

I'm a 100% lurker and it's such a nicer experience before any enshitification. It probably won't last forever, but no ads or spam, and simply seeing a feed of accounts I follow is all I want.

"Electrifying won't fully solve the problem, so don't bother" is also not particularly helpful

Man, I've coded a fair amount in my free time, and have even created a couple of money making side-projects, but I just can't grind leetcode no matter how often I try. That plus the rejection after doing long on-sites drains me for days afterwards. I've come to the conclusion that even though I may be missing out on those top salaries, FAANG just probably isn't for me

I stopped wearing headphones while running when the pandemic started. I really don't think about much. It's become sort of meditative for me.

Write in Batman for all I care. There are still elections other than the presidential race that will arguably affect you more on a day-to-day basis.

Who says divorce is the expected outcome of marriage? What's the point of getting married if that's the person's mindset?
