Is there ANYWHERE left that isn't full in on fashware and slop which will pay me to write code, design software, understand systems, and help build maintainable systems?

Please get me out of this AI-driven hell.

De ene video na de andere laat zien dat de politieagenten, die naar het plein kwamen waar de demonstranten zich verzameld hadden, hun naambordjes in strijd met de wet weggehaald hadden. Ze gebruikten hun lange stokken niet om de menigte tegen te houden, maar om er botten mee te breken. Video’s tonen een vrachtwagen volgeladen met stenen in de buurt van het protestterrein geparkeerd stond. Klaarblijkelijk om de demonstranten te voorzien van materiaal om de politie mee te bekogelen. Later kwam uit dat de politie die vrachtauto daar zelf neergezet had. Andere video’s laten beschadigde auto’s zien, alsof de opstandige jongeren ze vernield hadden. Naderhand bleken het wagens te zijn waren die betrokken waren geweest bij ongelukken, en die de politie in de buurt van de verzamelplek van de actievoerders had geplaatst. https://www.doorbraak.eu/de-kakkerlakken-protesten-in-india-gen-z-satire-en-moed-tegen-politiegeweld-en-een-falende-overheid/

On some level I know better than to sound off about this sorrow here, because I imagine I know what kind of response it’ll garner. But I’m watching someone I’ve known for a long time go well and truly off the AI deep end, and you know what? It hurts.
That’s what we don’t talk about enough: the unsustainable shear that opens up between people when they commit to differing visions of our future with this stuff. It’s like losing someone you care about to MAGA – or worse, even: to Q.

Well said. I didn't wear one for years (decades actually!) based on the research I did and was perfectly fine.
Then read some more recent research and decided to start wearing one (a folding one — love it!) and have been perfectly fine.
And I definitely don't think they should be mandatory.
All of which to say that my take comprehensively fails to choose either TRUE PATH and I should be ashamed of myself.
@catsalad Why the Yume Nikki esque music though-

16.0 Alpha 1 has arrived...
People ask me how come I often don't know these things... It's simple really. I'm on kernel-generic-7.2.4-x86_64-1 running #Slackware -current and don't actually bother to look up from the work I'm doing cause 16 is just a distro's version number, but 7.2.4 is a kernel. Officially, Slackware 16.0 Alpha is available w/the Linux huge 6.18.x kernel while 7.2.4 is in /testing.
Me, I'm just rolling along in production as I have been for close to 30 years now w/ Slackware - current looking back on the next upcoming release like it's something from yesterday lolz.
I do the same thing on #Debian (14/Testing/Forky) I just upgraded my kernel to 7.1.12+deb14-amd64 - so I'm not running that far behind the ultra-bleeding edge of Slackware, or what Arch and Gentoo users are either.
Anyway, you're going to hear more about the upcoming Slackware 16 release as the weeks go on and if there's one thing I can advise you of it's don't get caught up in the guessing game bullshit - Patrick will release it matter-of-factly w/o any fanfare and pretty much all bets will be wrong. The most you can do is to ask, "Is it soup yet?".
So here's the thread, and Patrick's response to the OP (who's running 7.3-RC1)
16.0 will be a nice milestone. Then I'll point slackpkg back to -current and keep rolling. 😊
@BigTittyBimbo I’ve had my head saved by a helmet many times when not on a road.
And seen accidents happen on a road where having a helmet has made no difference.

@urlyman you can just call me a prude ya know

Für die Politik ist die PISA-Studie doch eine Bestätigung dafür, dass ihre sozial ausgrenzende Bildungspolitik Wirkung zeigt und ärmere Schichten niemals das Bildungsniveau der Reichen erreichen werden.
Solange neoliberale Ideologen unsere Politik beherrschen, wird sich daran nichts ändern.
