That’s fine. Just charge them way more when they beg you to fix the mess they made for themselves. This exact thing has happened many times already in the very short history of computing.
I genuinely can’t tell if this is incredibly dry humor or if you’re being serious.
I knew pay in the UK was bad for developers but that’s completely cuckoo. It sounds more like the uk is the odd one out though since while EU pay is lower than US I do know that it’s still better than most other jobs in the same area even if you aren’t in the Capitol. But there’s also always remote work if you live somewhere with no jobs.

If you think programmers make less than other jobs then you’re totally out of touch.
It is lower than the US, but it’s still higher than average EU salary, plus you get tons more benefits and job security. Also, with remote work, you can get a US job in Europe. You’ll get paid less than if you were in the US, but more than other Europeans, while still enjoying the social benefits, and since you can accept less that makes you attractive to US companies. Main downside is having to adjust to US meeting hours.
That’s the best possible outcome. We’re super lucky in this industry because we have the best paying remote work opportunities out there. Before you couldn’t get an SF job in a LCOL area, and even with a COL adjustment, you are still making closer to an SF salary than a rural Penn salary.
You can always cut back on expenses, you can’t just increase your salary. I will take high cost of living with a high salary any day and just cut back on non essentials. If you’re eating out all the time and a meal is $20 vs $5, that will add up to a lot, but if you’re spending 50 cents on an egg instead of 10 cents, you’ll still be making way more in a HCOL area. Plus programming has the best paying remote opportunities, so you can have the best of both worlds if you’re talented.
It’s pretty simple isn’t it? If you want to be paid a lot of money, learn how to do what other people can’t or won’t. In the software industry those opportunities are all over the place. You just need to find it and take it.
I think it makes perfect sense. Those people are building something from scratch. That’s a lot more responsibility and skill needed than to maintain a tiny part of a huge well established system. The people capable of doing an A+ job at building something totally new are very few and far between and the competition to hire them is fierce. The best way to move up in this industry is to build up your skill and jump ship to a new job as soon as your skill has outpaced your salary.
If you’re gonna make a movie about cooking you probably have a clear vision of what you want to do
The technology required to do any of this would allow for so much stuff, and their first idea is how to use it to imprison people? What the actual fuck?
I was casting video files from VLC. When I switched to YouTube I was trying to use the YouTube app on the Google tv. I’m starting to think my Google tv might be fucked up somehow so maybe I need to do a factory reset, but I have 2 of them and while ones better than the other, neither is that smooth.
Yeah I’m just so sick of cast being unreliable. The main reason I’m asking here is to answer two questions. It’s getting Chromecast set up on a raspberry pi even a thing (I’m just not really informed about what it requires), and are raspberry pis powerful enough to provide a silky smooth streaming experience. It’s kinda sounding like the answer is no.
I saw that and it looks very promising. My biggest question is about being able to cast to it. I’d really like to be able to use the Chromecast standard since it’s built into so many things, and I’m not sure if it’s feasible to get it set up on an open source setup without it being unreliable or finicky, so I’m hoping to hear if anyone has gotten a smooth setup with it.
As much as I’d like full control over my device out of principle, I’m just sick and tired of something as simple as being able to stream to my TV being so choppy and unreliable.
I really don’t want a Roku because of bullshit like this https://www.pcmag.com/news/roku-bricking-tvs-unless-users-accept-dispute-resolution-terms
Exactly. Saying it’s a problem when playing video games doesn’t mean that it isn’t a problem anywhere else. For office jobs specifically, there is already plenty of awareness being spread and most offices give out onboarding material that gives tips on stretches you can do and on how to have a more ergonomic setup.
To be fair, lots of companies specifically point out ergonomics and give out onboarding materials with suggestions on exercises to do and office setup best practices.
Awareness is important, and most office jobs already raise awareness about it. I think the only time I’ve seen it in video games were those take a break reminders I’ve seen in some Nintendo games.
I tried out ollama. It was trivially easy to set up.
Stable diffusion is a bit more work, but any power user should be able to figure it out.
