I'm an experienced SSE and I'm about to hunt for a new job for the first time in a few years. I've so far been able to avoid most AI use, with the exception of testing out some code completion with copilot a couple years ago.

Basically every job listing I'm seeing expects some level of AI adoption ("we'll set you up with either Claude or Copilot, so much choice!") so I figured it's time.

What's the best way to get an intro to these tools? I'm curious how people are actually using them in their workflows successfully. I want to give it a fair shake and form my first-hand opinion on these things as tools.

EDIT: I'd also like to hear from those downvoting this post.

What food would you prepare now that you have these 2 kohlrabi bulbs in your hands and any other ingredients you want available?

I've never eaten it before, so I'd enjoy hearing some ideas.

A social media influencer in Mexico was shot dead Tuesday night while streaming live on the site Kick, with viewers watching the event in real time, authorities said.

Cesar Gastelum, 25, was livestreaming outside a KFC in Culiacan, the capital city of Sinaloa state, around 8 p.m. local time when he was attacked. He was accompanied by two friends and dressed as a food delivery worker as part of a challenge.

Gastelum, who had nearly 600,000 followers on TikTok and was known for making comedy videos, was approached by two individuals riding a motorcycle, both wearing helmets. According to a clip from the livestream, the rider appeared to shoot a gun right at Gastelum.

I built a service whose primary client is a CLI program. I was thinking about building that client for Windows as well (not just WSL). My target users are generally technically-proficient so I'd rather not build a whole GUI app if it's unnecessary. But I honestly have no idea how often Windows users use CLI tools beyond some Windows admin stuff.

So if Windows is your daily driver, how often do you leverage the shell and how unusual would it be to use CLI tools in your workflows?

I made a system for people to quickly publish cryptographically authenticated Web sites using Markdown and CSS.

There's no need to share any PII, just generate a keypair and go. Custom domains or subdomains on jot.run are supported. Free of charge. Open source.

I built this because it's something I wanted to use for personal documentation and note taking, as well as learning more about and getting used to Rust.

Happy to have any feedback positive or negative.

EDIT: Only Linux is currently supported. Let me know if you have interest in another OS and I'll look into it.

Neat typing practice app which now lets you type out some classic novels.

Mujadara based on this recipe. Thanks to @[email protected] for the rec from this post.

Pretty good comfort food. Deeply satiating. 7/10. Will eat again.

Caramelizing onions is annoying though.

What are some vegetarian meals or dishes you think people should know about?

I'm pretty guilty of using meat as a crutch in most of my cooking. I'd love to hear about some good meals for inspiration. Ideally things that aren't made to imitate/replace meat but exist well on their own.

My instance is getting pummeled by scrapers crawling nonsense. Like issue and pull searches with every single variant of label combinations.

Everything's coming from a shitload of different residential IPs at a very fast cadence.

There's just not that much content on my instance to warrant this traffic. It could be scraped in a minute or two like this if it were legitimate traffic.

Road to Vostok is a hardcore survival FPS made by a lone Finnish developer. He's been releasing a lot of behind the scenes footage as he built the game. Today it has been released as early access on Steam.

The video showcases the game and goes into his background and future plans for the game.

I was fiddling with some nixos Raspberry Pi images to try the distro out (along with clan) and noticed on first boot they reach out and connect to a tor relay to setup tor ssh.

It's a pretty neat concept, I think it's cool and maybe a quick way to get connected to a new device.

But the idea of connecting to tor relays at all puts me a little on edge. Feels like it'll potentially draw attention to my IP by either relays gather analytics or my ISP for noticing the traffic at all.

Am I being overly paranoid? Am I just completely ignorant to how tor works? Do you use tor on the regular for legit traffic?

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A jury has found Elon Musk liable for defrauding investors by deliberately driving down Twitter's stock price in the tumultuous months leading up to his 2022 acquisition of the social media company for $44 billion. But it absolved him of some fraud allegations, finding that he did not “scheme” to mislead investors.

[...]

The jury awarded shareholders between about $3 and $8 per stock per day as damages, which the plaintiffs' lawyers said amounts to about $2.1 billion in stock and another $500 million in options. Musk's fortune is currently estimated at about $814 billion, much of it tied up in Tesla (TSLA) shares.
