It’s good we have “Knewbies” in a sandbox when they start.

attention all companies: please stop making pet names for your employees, it’s weird

It really, really is

In my experience, the larger threadiverse instances have gradually collected the worst ex-redditors, who have brought the worst of reddit’s culture. I’m unfortunately not surprised that lemmy.world has queerphobic mods, given how the users behave. 😕

my employer has decided to license an “AI RDBMS” that will dynamically rewrite our entire database schema and queries to allegedly produce incredible performance improvements out of thin air. It’s obviously snake oil, but they’re all in on it 🙄

honestly, it feels like the Threadiverse is slowly turning into Reddit (in a bad way). There’s so much toxicity and right-wing talking points all over the network. You can see it in nearly every community, on many different instances.

Another vote for the steam controller - it’s versatile enough to work comfortably with every game I’ve wanted to play.

I’ve been using Xubuntu for half a decade, zero regrets.

My product manager is doing the opposite - pushing us to replace “bandwidth” and “effort” with “time”. We’re now expected to provide an accurate hour estimate for all work items, projects, and bugs. Getting it done later or sooner is penalized on the metrics.

Jain’s team then built artificial-intelligence models that were able to stitch the microscope images together to reconstruct the whole sample in 3D.

The map is so large that most of it has yet to be manually checked, and it could still contain errors created by the process of stitching so many images together. “Hundreds of cells have been ‘proofread’, but that’s obviously a few per cent of the 50,000 cells in there,” says Jain.

Ah so it’s not a real model, just an AI approximation.

The frontend is HTML only? Then I’d go with C# and ASP.NET Razor pages. Modern language with good DX, performant runtime, and server-side rendering.
