Nothing exciting.

Programming problem solved with improvements

I wonder how many dudes have duct taped a fleshlight onto their chatbot girlfriends? I guess it does make sense though for lonely people, especially old people to keep them interacting. More advanced models will probably fill the hole of the lack of psychological help for people that need it.

@Gators1 I bet some complain the colon key gets sticky.

Haha, he said “fill the hole”

Maybe there’s a demand for it but, personally, I don’t understand why the VS Code developers keep adding new editor features. It was perfect a few years ago. Every time they add something I’ve got to google random terms until I find what the thing is called and then hunt through the settings to work out how to turn it off. When I try it on a new machine without my own settings synchronized there’s so much extraneous shit when I edit (minimap, codelens, code actions etc etc) it’s like playing a fucking video game. I can no longer see my code sometimes. Do people like this stuff?

Nerds are weird. Why do you go through all this shit just to build something that’s basically useless?

That second one actually looks functional. Bravo

No exceptions!

Just lie on your resume like everyone else these days.

@Gators1 Thankfully I haven’t had to submit a resume in over a decade. It’s going to be painful if/when I have to update it. I can barely remember what i had for dinner last night let alone what I was working on all that time.
