I was aiming for something you could double click on vanilla Windows and would just work out of the box
This doesn't happen to me with anything else, I'm not a picky eater and will happily eat literally anything else
I'd have to set it up and tell all the consumers of my server to move apps, and not all of them are tech literate. It would take a lot of enshittification to force me to move.
Ordinary people can't just afford to drop 10k for a heat pump + installation for it to pay for itself 20 years down the line.
I think gas is dirt cheap, heating your home and hot water with electricity is 4x more expensive and costs hundreds a month.

Another issue that I've ran into a few times, is if a feature flag starts as a simple thing, but as new features get added, it evolves into a complex bifurcation of logic and many code paths become dependent on it, which can add crippling complexity to what you're developing
When it comes to GPUs, AMD just has the vibe of a company that basically shrugged and gave up. It's a shame because some competition would be amazing in this environment.
It's called "So Clover!" and it's a word association themed game where each person gets four pairs of words, you write a one word clue for each pair, and then the rest of the group has to work backwards to figure out the original orientation of your cards (the cards themselves each have four words as well)

The commoner can only hammer the prompt repeatedly with "this doesn't work can you fix it".
So yes, our jobs are changing rapidly, but this doesn't strike me as being obsolete any time soon.
Having not used AWS for years, I logged in to check it out, navigated through the Kafkaesque maze of their services until I found what I was looking for:
A lone S3 storage bucket, with one file, "Squirrel.jpg". A 200kB picture of a squirrel that I uploaded 8 years ago and can't remember why.
It allows you to do stuff so much faster than having to type everything manually into the terminal. Also really enjoy the "Undo Last Commit" feature and how I can easily see all modified files at once and shuffle around stuff between the staging area.
If they let Firefox atrophy to the point it will have no market share, let's see how that works out for them
It seems once you amass a certain amount of wealth, you just get automatically bailed out from your mistakes
