Twitch is 100% unwatchable if you aren't subscribed to a stream or have Twitch Turbo or whatever. Try to have some background noise and watch someone play a game to get interrupted every 5-10 minutes with 9 ads in a row.

This reminds me of something I heard the other day. I have a friend of a friend who works at SpaceX and let it slip that they're dealing with ENORMOUS fraud with their Starlink devices. Apparently they somehow were shipping out thousands of Starlink access points in 2021 and 2022 to fake buyers and are only just starting to address the problem, but some are still going out without payment. Basically, their internal controls had to be totally hosed for this to happen. Very funny stuff.

this combined with the reuters report about the spike in illegal brazillian mining and deforestation due to starlinks = lmao

Eregos unironically like you're right in that in a perfect world a lot of what you're saying would be correct and would happen. That probably looks like something I would have wrote like a decade ago.

The problem is we are fully decoupled from sanity and reality and the people in control actively want to hurt people and know they will only be enriched instead of punished for doing so

Are you using the GPT-4 model? According to Microsoft's evaluation it scores in the top few percentiles on online code interview practice tests, whatever that means. Supposedly it can get a perfect score on the Amazon one, but I am a laymen so I dunno if that is impressive or not.

Well yeah all of those programming challenges are like known problems with thousands of solutions posted on stackexchange in many forms. If you want it to actually solve a unique problem good loving luck lmao

I quit a job in college managing apartment renovations bc the lady who ran the company got all her contractors so mad they quit so she tried to make a bunch of 19 year old kids to plumbing, HVAC, and electrical work

She asked me to paint over mold in a frat house and I called the county with a list of properties and what was done and then left my tools at the front door of the office lmao
