Maybe we need to teach them the kinds of things that AI can’t do, instead of the same old crap?

I have an unfinished Software Engineering degree. While studying, I started a small businesses to do some freelance IT work on the side and one client offered me a full-time job, so I put the studies on hold and then never looked back. Been climbing through different positions and companies since then. Experience is valued much higher than a diploma, especially in an industry that evolves too quickly for education to keep up. I quit the industry recently to start teaching, because there is huge need for teachers that can teach programming, and working with people is much more rewarding than a big paycheck (imo).
In all of my job interviews, I’ve been asked more about the company I started while studying, than the degree that I quit. So I guess my tip is to start your own thing or start teaching. Having your own business with a license also makes it way easier for big companies to hire you for contract work.
Great! Like installing square wheels on my bike
What are the main differences, for someone considering going from Firefox to Librewolf?
For a democracy to work it’s people need to act like political consumers. To do so, they need to be informed about the products they consume and their alternatives.
Also, a lot of Scandinavian libraries are switching their public desktop PCs to Linux.
LightBurn should hire better developers then
Oh boy, Lemmy really doesn’t get sarcasm without the “/s”, huh?
I think we are about to experience a true Butlerian Jihad. Not because of the fearsome power of AI, but because of the hatred of shitty LLMs.
Great! Now I know who to contact when I accidentally delete all the plaintext API keys and passwords I had stored in a public github repo.
Every time I compare specs to prices on Apples website, I get irrationally angry.
And 99% of computer use for most people is in a browser. No need for an overly complex OS, with constant stupid pop-ups to ruin that browser experience.
Defintiely! I recently bought a used Thinkpad and slapped Pop!_OS on it for my father-in-law. He’s 73 and he’s loving it! He proudly tells his friends that he is now “a part of a computer revolution”.
I don’t think this about trying to close it, but rather put a big fat sticker on everything that comes out of the box, so consumers can actually make informed decisions.
I use KDE connect for remote controlling, so I never even noticed. But I can see that being an annoying loss.
I liked having both in the same app until I discovered AntennaPod, which is far superior to Spotify’s podcast manager.
Switched to Tidal when Spotify announced their reduction in artist pay, and I can highly recommend it. The interface is much better, although lacking podcasts (but luckily there are many great FOSS podcasts apps out there).
It’s so gods damn good! Perfect game for the Deck too
I really hope they start shipping to Denmark soon. We’re such a tiny market we often get ignored or forgotten.
