I’m shocked, shocked, I tell you!

It disappoints me that the level of regulatory capture prevents these companies from being held to account.

I’ve got one of those laptop chips and I feel exactly the same. I’m going to be watching my temps very closely. My trust is absolutely gone

1 year in and this job still seems just as cryptic and difficult. Very little documentation about the systems here and the imposter syndrome is feeling more like a reality than a pathology.

I’m about to look into different work.

I like this very much! I’ll bring this up to my mayor next time I see him. Big thank.

Most likely an app updater written by someone who is too lazy to make their updater hidden.

As others suggested, look in task scheduler, but make sure you run it elevated. Focus on any updater that’s calling an app from a bat file, and move out from there.

I would only get one if it also had a backlit display. Preferably amber

This article has some useful considerations.

Happy shopping.

Weird, most people just use socks for that.

I believe the implication is that humanity does not deserve to continue on.

I hear you. I firmly believe that comparing the behavior of GPT with that of certain individuals on SO is like comparing apples to oranges though.

GPT is a machine, and unlike human users on SO, it doesn’t harbor any intent to be exclusive or dismissive. The beauty of GPT lies in its willingness to learn and engage in constructive conversations. If it provides incorrect information, it is always open to being questioned and will readily explain its reasoning, allowing users to learn from the exchange.

In stark contrast, some users on SO seem to have a condescending attitude towards learners and are quick to shut them down, making it a challenging environment for those seeking genuine help. I’m sure that these individuals don’t represent the entire SO community, but I have yet to have a positive encounter there.

While GPT will make errors, it does so unintentionally, and the motivation behind its responses is to be helpful, rather than asserting superiority. Its non-judgmental approach creates a more welcoming and productive atmosphere for those seeking knowledge.

The difference between GPT and certain SO users lies in their intent and behavior. GPT strives to be inclusive and helpful, always ready to educate and engage in a constructive manner. In contrast, some users on SO can be dismissive and unsupportive, creating an unfavorable environment for learners. Addressing this distinction is vital to fostering a more positive and nurturing learning experience for everyone involved.

In my opinion this is what makes SO ineffective and is largely why it’s traffic had dropped even before chat GPT became publicly available.

Edit: I did use GPT to remove vitriol from and shorten my post. I’m trying to be nicer.
