FYI, whether fair or unfair, since you don’t mention having an error-catching mechanism, the rest of us suspect that Lumo is hallucinating things regularly, and you’re not catching the lies, because you lack familiarity with the original source material.

I desperately hope that AI makes drastically fewer mistakes in some roles than others, because most people do not report the error rates that I see in my areas of expertise. So either the errors aren’t happening evenly everywhere (probably true) or some people are simply not catching the many mistakes (also probably true, though?).

No, just an American, where a health challenge of any kind can potentially bankrupt me, because health care here is a criminally privatized corporate hellscape.

We got the nerd tech who exudes, “I’d rather be at ComiCon.”

Wow. That describes my whole team.

Probably depends where the Bayer funding is at.

Or does America have a unilatera free pass from trade dispute resolution

Maybe, or maybe not. But some rich folks - unaccustomed to consequences for their actions - feel that the only way to be sure is to put it to the test.

also anyone here into manifestation/law of attraction, does it actually work for you? not asking to like wish for money lol, more curious how you actually get into a good headspace and stay there day to day

I remember the random people I’ve interacted that I really liked.

Then I taught myself enough acting skills to pretend to be that person.

I get genrally better service than anyone else.

I also tip well, because I can. That probably helps, but that’s not why I do it.

As others said: Choose to fall in love with brushing and flossing your teeth.

Make that shit your “me” time.

Experiment with expensive or esoteric ways to make it feel great.

If it’s not the best part of your day, change things up until it is.

I would have suffered less if I had figured this out sooner.

does manifestation actually work

Not unless your parents are rich.

had some bad losses in trading lately, took a short break and now trying to actually fix my risk management before going back in

Good for you getting out. Don’t get back in. No more day trading. Day trading is anti-social shithead behavior, anyway. If you don’t feel bad for doing it, take a closer look. It doesn’t pass any kind of pro-social test.

if you’re older and already been through your 20s, what do you wish someone told you back then?

Someone did tell me this, but I was a stupid kid. I followed it, but I started stupdily late.

Maybe you’re smarter than I was, but forgive yourself later if you’re not - you’re at least in good company.

Here is is:

"Time in the market always beats market timing. Buy conservative things with real value - ideally that routinely pay a dividend. Hold on to them.

However powerful you think you know compounding interest is, you’re wrong. It’s substantially more powerful than that.

Get it - compounding interest - on your side right now, and keep it there, anytime you can.

Don’t take out any debt that you can possibly avoid."

Lots of organizations have a “ooh scary Linux” server or two that they rely on, but failed to retain the talent needed to maintain it. If you’ve been running desktop Linux, and know some basic command line tools, you’re way ahead of most people they will interview for the role.

The downside is that they might feel that they can maybe just keep ignoring their problem for another year, and some will.

Probably zone out all day on my home emotional manipulaor machine.

So only for people who serve the state, not for people who served their neighbors without official capacity.

Translates to “not for people we could not control” pretty readily.

Yes. We do use /s here, as well.

I’m not mad.

“My girlfriend turned into the moon.”

I run Linux at a workplace that is mostly Windows and some Mac.

Nobody notices or cares.

Everything I need runs in a browser now.

But why does everyone bring up AutoCAD? Lemmy seems to be full of AutoCAD professionals.

I sling code and documents. Linux is better for code and uses Office 365 as well as any other OS.

That’s a tough claim to defend, today, while housing, transportation, and food cost more for so many people.

But I’d just put docker in WSL if I had the misfortune of having to use it on Windows.

Oh, thanks! I might try WSL next time, should I be so unfortunate, again.

That’s one thing - installing and trying out Podman compose takes less time than remembering where to get Docker compose from.

I always at least try it first, because it’s not expensive to try.
