Cypher··on Bloated College Administration Is Making Education Unaffordable

Cypher··on UK photographers and image-makers should be concerned about the proposed AI law
I'm not concerned at all, I love how AI enhances my work. It takes me on deep journeys of endless imagination.

AI generated content is going to be personal content and it's going to do away with copy right as each piece will be unique to the individual. Rather than share a single image we will share abstract concepts and styles for our friends to explore.

Cypher··on Ask HN: How is time tracking done at your work?
We have do estimate on projects with Jira. plan how long we think it'll take then log the time as we go at end of the day. But honestly I'm terrible at it, I always go way over and just make up the log whatever because after a hard day of debugging its the last thing I care about.

Management complains but not much they can do besides deduct money or fire me. And when pay doesn't keep up with inflation then I really couldn't care less.
