i wonder how people would become farmers before computers were invented? Were there like steam engine dudes who were like "I am so tired of all this steam bullshit, I'm just gonna be a farmer instead."

Asymmetric POSTer posted:if i could get paid deecee six figgies to be an assistant to a real farmer id quit tomorrow i think there's a distinction to be made here between actual farmers and "gentleman farmers" which is to say people who run farms as a hobby because they dont need to live off the money they make selling okra or whatever

its a lot better now but i every now & then I still see interns from colleges that will spend a year talking about computability and proofs of correctness and I ask them to commit to version control and they're like "version control?"

"look, Barney, i agree that graph isomorphism is an important concept and we can definitely come back to this later but right now I just need you to bump the version number in the POM ok"

abigserve posted:I once saw someone serve a static website using Lambda functions and that sounds pretty ok (a series of S3 buckets with maybe some fancy routing) in reality it was lambda that was dynamically rendering all the html hahahaha now render all the icons via some dall-e invocation

if someone hasn't done a filter where you render a web page but replace all the images by dall-e renderings of their alt-txts, please do
