With regards to the Old Vs Young knowing how to do things: I don't know jack poo poo about actually fixing a car. I do however know what an alternator is, difference between fuel injected or a carb, the stages of combustion, the parts of the engine associated with that. I think we as a society have gotten use to computers being a toy and a distraction, and not a tool. You should know how any tool works before using it. Or atleast have an understanding of how the tool you are using performs its task.

GolfHole posted:so many younger workers just use chatgpt to do their jobs. Nah if they’re massaging good stuff from chatGPT that’s great. I mentioned the csv -> ftp thing because it’s a workflow that just won’t die and I’ve seen it in use in a variety of situations and it sucks so if you could get away with changing it, it’d already be changed. The best chatgpt is going to do is explain how to use ftp and how the filesystem works.

It's never exactly been a great way to learn language on its own, but now it's actively harmful (for a non-romance language, maybe something like Spanish is better but I have my doubts)

I've used it for some creative writing exercises and it's fun for that. I've tested it for professional use and it was pretty much the same as if I just got drunk as gently caress, wrote a bunch of stuff and then had to edit the poo poo out of it into a rewrite the next day - except it was more stiff and unnatural. I'm very much against use of GPT in any form of writing, especially professional writing, outside workshopping stuff. I've seen some real illiterate SOPs that are probably still better than what GPT could do.

Hey folks, just dusted off my detective hat and magnifying glass because it's time for another edition of "The Decline Chronicles." 🕵️♂️✨ 🚀 Once upon a time, everything was smooth sailing in the kingdom of Quality. But hold on to your hats, because I've noticed a trend: things getting shadier without any justifiable reason! 🎭 📱 Exhibit A: Phone Batteries 📉 Remember when your phone could last a whole day without gasping for charging? Now, it's like it's doing a sprint instead of a marathon. Did batteries suddenly forget how to hold a charge, or are they just trying to keep up with our fast-paced lives? 🍟 Exhibit B: Potato Chips Bags 🥔 Let's talk snack-sized betrayal. Have you opened a bag of chips lately and felt like you were purchasing air with a side of disappointment? The air-to-chip ratio has hit unprecedented levels. I miss the days when my chips weren't playing hide and seek in a bag. 🌐 Exhibit C: Internet Speeds 🌐 The internet used to be the speedster of information highways. Now, it sometimes moves at the pace of a tortoise on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Did the data decide to take a detour through the scenic route? We just want our memes and cat videos, ASAP. 🚗 Exhibit D: Car Cup Holders 🥤 Cars have evolved, but cup holders seem to be stuck in the past. Why is it that a simple beverage holder can't accommodate anything larger than a mini soda? Are they in cahoots with spill stains? We demand cup holder justice! 🍕 Exhibit E: Pizza Slice Sizes 🍕 Pizza slices used to be a substantial meal. Nowadays, it feels like they're on a diet. Did pepperoni and cheese get more expensive, or are we just being served pizza on a diet plan? So, there you have it—my detective dossier on the mysterious decline of everyday things. Is it a conspiracy, a cosmic joke, or just the universe's way of keeping us on our toes? 🤔 Keep your eyes peeled, detectives, because the next chapter of "The Decline Chronicles" might just unfold in your hands (or cup holders) soon! 🔍📉✨

Grocery store now price tags things with a "member's club" price instead of the real price, which is much greater and nowhere to be found. How do you become a member? You don't. A process to apply doesn't exist. There is no club. They made it the gently caress up. Now every shopping trip involves 90% of my poo poo being put back because I'm not going to pay $6 for a can of condensed tomato soup with a tag that says 55 cents. The person in front of me in line just now paid $1100 for their cart of groceries without thinking, so I guess it works.

Kroger does the same poo poo with their price tags, but you can just type in your area code and 867-5309 and get the “discounted” price if you don’t want an account

That sucks, I've never seen a price disparity between the regular and "club" price so big before. Out of the three grocery store chains near me (Price Chopper/Market 32, Shaw's, and Hannaford) the first two have the "Price Club"/member price thing, but it's free to join, just accept that you'll be feeding "The Beast" with your grocery data and whatnot. Hannaford must be one of the last holdouts to just do "no memberships, everyone pays the same price." I mean...they HAVE a membership thingy, but it's just for the occasional targeted coupon book mailed to you or something.

In MA it's $100/item scanned at a higher price than displayed on shelves if determined by inspection (either scheduled or in response to consumer reporting) and if a consumer points out the discrepancy at the register the store must then: quote:if there is a discrepancy between the advertised price, the sticker price, the scanner price or the display price and the checkout price on any grocery item, a food store or a food department shall charge a consumer the lowest price. If the checkout price or scanner price is not the lowest price or does not reflect any qualifying discount, the seller: The fine is pretty bullshit low but somewhere consistently mismarking items could lose a lot of money very quickly on this part off it.

My main issue at the grocery store (Kroger) is them having items without any displayed price. One shelf will just not have the price tags on it. You can see the markings on here so they can stock them but whatever strip they put over that with today's prices is missing. I've decided not to get a few items since I didn't know if it was going to be a $2 or $8 item.
