The deeper I get into this platform the more I realize the guise of being ‘progressive, left, privacy-conscious, tech inclined’ is literally the opposite.
Why?? Please make this make sense. Having AI to help with coding is ideal and the greatest immediate use case probably. The web is an open resource. Why die on this stupid hill instead of advocating for a privacy argument that actually matters?
Edit: Okay got it. Hinder significant human progress because a company I don’t like might make some more money from something I said in public, which has been a thing literally forever. You guys really lack a lot of life skills about how the world really works huh?

Nope, there’s nothing controversial about it. If you’re in a wooded area with a bear and a man you’re more likely to be harmed by a man. Doesn’t matter how you view the question, just matters how much of a basement dweller you are.
Edit: By nothing controversial - no mainstream news or popular opinion pieces or the general public at large don’t understand it. There is no controversy. Be insular on the internet all you want, I’m not attacking your opinions. But controversial is not this.
There is literally nothing better about the clientele of this platform than reddit except people are nicer and probably less miserable on average in the comments. If anything its users are less socialized and more insular - e.g. I use linux server extensively for work where it controls most of the internet, but most of the hot takes here about linux here are beyond stupid. If anything, between Lemmy and reddit, the users here are even more convinced they’re knowledgeable and infallible connoisseurs, if that’s even possible. So when fallout does happen, it’s generally more ugly.
Also, the bear thing is not controversial - except with infantile man-children. Those people don’t get to represent a demographic.
I mean, it would be an order of magnitude more work to grow all the food and build the (subpar in comparison) amenities I need to survive. But I guess then I would just be a slave to nature. You can’t escape.
A week of downtime and all the servers were recovered only because the customer had a proper disaster recovery protocol and held backups somewhere else, otherwise Google deleted the backups too...
Just an FYI in case you don’t follow Cloud news but Google has deleted customers accounts on multiple occasions and has been for literal years. This time they just did it to someone large enough to make the news. I work in SRE and no longer recommend GCP to anyone.
We’re confused? Why do you talk for other people like that’s somehow authorative ngl. Not a great thing to insult the intelligence of a whole group with the ‘I think’ line.
But even with a decade of experience every time I’ve approached an American company it’s been a complete non-starter. Is it because they know they couldn’t pay me peanuts like the other guys?...
Now that DuckDuckGo is out. Give me your search prompts and I'll answer them as best I can. That includes images (based on what I have saved on my PC). So what is it you wish to know or see?

A while ago one of my old accounts got banned from r/news for saying I wouldn't bone some celebrity. Now if I forget and comment on a front page post with any account this happens. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
