He quit because real life problems were affecting his ability to make money. Welcome to reality. What's his takeaway? He stopped his poor life social experiment because he wanted to focus on his health, but if we try to focus on our health, we simply aren't making money.

He stopped at the top of the rabbit hole, he should've gone in.

Well, no one could say that to him

Meanwhile, German cities are working autonomously to make it more bicycle and pedestrian friendly. Jesus Christ FDP. I wonder if SPD and Grüne knew what an asshole Wissing is.

Munich is handling it really well in my opinion. They have rules for homeowners, which are that an apartment cannot be empty for more than 3 months, cannot be used (fully) as an office (of course you can have an office in your apartment) and that the apartment can be used as vacation home for a maximum of 8 weeks per year. I just checked Airbnb again and the offers are sparse.

If Airbnb would be used by renters to offer their home in times where they aren't there themselves, then it's a great concept. However capitalism fucked everything over and now it's just used to generate income by rich people who can afford to buy accommodation.

Diese ganze Hetzkampagne gegen die Grünen ist auch unglaublich unprofessionell, vor allem wenn er es gleichzeitig nicht schafft starke Worte gegen die AfD zu bringen.

Honestly, the small scale racism is a huge issue. These constant small arguments is what manifests it in people's heads.

But yeah Trump is an ass, fuck him.

About 1.5mio. people in Germany were demonstrating in the last two weeks against a political party who among other things have deportation of immigrants on their agenda. They have a shockingly high amount of votes.

It's pretty old and now I feel old :'(

IRC :(

There's also IRC

Given that you probably are using pointers, and occasionally you are allocating memory, smart pointers handle deallocation for you. And yes, you can do it yourself but it is prone to errors and maybe sometimes you forget a case and memory doesn't get deallocated and suddenly there is a leak in the program.

When you're there, shared_ptr is used when you want to store the pointer in multiple locations, unique_ptr when you only want to have one instance of the pointer (you can move it around though).

Smart pointers are really really nice, I do recommend getting used to them (and all other features from c++11 forward).

It's satire by the way

Every major company hiring right now:

Willingness to work with AI

Inkscape:

Absolutely NO Generative AI to be used in applying to these jobs, programming, writing documentation, issue summarising or testing processes.

I'm loving this

What is discussed in this thread are LLMs, which are a subgroup of AI. What you are referring to, is image recognition, and there are plenty of examples where their use is not evil, e.g. in the medical field.

Just wanted to mention at this point that the quantum computers in this post are the so-called superconducting quantum computers. There are also other architectures like ion and neutral atom quantum computers which are basically steel tubes with viewports that contain a ultra high vacuum. Lasers are used to control the ions or atoms.

There's also photon quantum computers, but they are even more different and not in a really advanced stage yet.

They know which operating system you use based on the user agent, so they know it's Linux.

Not sure if you didn't understand the joke or if this is another joke on top of it

Well my landlord is some foreign company, they pay a local maintenance company which manages the apartment. Of course the costs come back to me as the renter. Now the landlord gets free money just because they had enough cash to buy the apartment in the first place. And when they are done printing money, they'll just sell the apartment for more than they bought it before.

The options were that your taxes go up by a small amount or substantially. The correct answer is by a small amount since you only pay higher taxes on the one dollar that you're over.
