“It seems like every conversation I've had during the past several weeks with a friend or colleague involved in publishing—longtime journalists, novelists, comics people—has felt like dinosaurs describing the meteor we can see descending.” https://foreverwars.ghost.io/my-robotic-doppelganger-is-the-grim-face-of-journalisms-future/

@acdha everyone is feeling that way. I am a software engineer by profession and since last year I have been feeling like my time is gone.

I am not one for Space Karen, but I do feel OpenAI needs to be challenged to at-least change their name as it is misleading.

State of JS Runtime

I suggest we have a new survey similar to state of JS called state of JS runtime, to get an idea of which runtimes are most popular in the industry & what are they being used for. (its merely a question in StateOfJS)






🙋🏽‍♀️
Which runtime do you use & for what purpose?

I've never been so happy to be a terrible artist, at least no one will mistake my stuff for AI.

Though there's always the off-chance I'll teach some AI to be a terrible artist, too, which would be great 🤔

@ChrisJagged in that case it is better to be a disaster artist

@alex I agree with you & unfortunately higher management atleast the one in Big Tech are already making decisions based on these assumptions, take a look at the article below:

I'm a bit stressed about the climate and all the tech layoffs 😬

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@sirber likewise.

I honestly cant predict what will happen to the market in future.
Alot of big tech is doing layoffs and it is scary. It over saturates the market particularly tech sector.

https://layoffs.fyi/

Will the job market get back to normal ever, this time I have no idea.

Climate is getting worse, and I think we are at a point of no return now.

💻 Buy laptop from Employer

@aut had an interesting post that lead me to this question.

Have you ever experienced a situation where on leaving a company you negotiated that you keep the company laptop either because it is fully depreciated or pay a small price for it?

Aut, to random

I left my old job 5 months ago and despite them saying I'd get a box to return my laptop, that never happened. I emailed HR to let them know (general hr@company) and got an automated message saying they didn't work for the company anymore. As hilarious as the thought that all HR left the company, I don't think it's particularly accurate.

So, how long until it's considered abandoned? Maybe I should charge them a storage fee to catch their attention.

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@Aut there is a possibility the asset is completely depreciated.

Even in smaller companies I saw some employees leaving negotiated that they take the hardware with them as it is depreciated for the company for a small price.

I’ve spent sufficient time over the last year optimizing my workflow setup—both software-based and analog—to notice distinct patterns emerging in the ways that I optimize my workflow.

Most significantly, I’ve noticed a cycle of adding and removing items and tools from my setup. I call this the Minimalism Cycle.

If there's anything I've taken away from my adult years, it's that most people just like being angry at something, and they'll do anything to have something to be angry about.
