I assume to some degree this is a little performative. I'd have to image almost all reps travel enough to have Diamond or Delta 360 status anyway. I don't know what other perks above and beyond that they get.

I am all for reps being normal citizens and not some privileged ruling class. They are supposed to be ordinary citizens like the rest of us. If the government shuts down, they shouldn't get paid either. But I would at least take not allowing them to blatantly insider trade as a starting point.

Think of it as intel when the snackbars might be acting a little different. Like when they skip lunch for Ramadan and act like it is some huge effort and act all grumpy about it.

WTH did you search to find that

He doesn't care about what benefits the country. He cares about what benefits himself - he's just lying to himself and everyone else like any other liberal.

Will these be available on ESPN or is this part of some one off subscription like some of these tournaments?

The arms aren’t really ready this early. Happens almost every year. Give it some time and they will look much better.

Some jackass on a float in either Okeanos or Midcity threw a bunch of whistles and all the kids had whistles around us blowing them non-stop. We had about 100 whistles blowing constantly after that. Wish he hadn't wasted his money on that idea.

This isn't doom bullshite, we just had a large layoff and i'm friends with a ton of people looking for jobs. Companies are strongly prioritizing higher Sr. and Expert roles, entry level they are doing their best to replace with AI.

Sorry you don't like it, but if you are working on AD DC's i can see why your perspective of the industry is radically different.

I haven't really seen any of this. But I've been in security for a while now. If anything AI has made me have more job security. The amount of stupid shite people are doing via AI without a second thought is absurd. We have shut down lots of the AI usage because we had clowns doing stuff like leaving API keys or PII data in plan text because that's what the AI told them to do. Devs that should know better too.

AI is neat and has it's use case, but I feel like these AI layoffs are really just investor relations so they don't have to admit they are just regular layoffs.

ETA:To OP - echoing what others have said, you probably aren't jumping to a systems analyst or system admin role right away. You are going to have to cut your teeth on helpdesk.

Not saying it's the only way to do it, but I a Sr in cloud security and I started out as a temp making $10/hr on the helpdesk. But you can prove your worth and move up pretty quick at some companies.

You may want to research the security posture of this thing first. I would only run it on an isolated device with limited exposure.

Yea I've been reading all sorts of security researchers exploiting it. Also, I don't really have anything I need an llm to do for me in my daily personal life. I wouldn't be able to integrate it with work, so I just don't get the need.

A new smelting plant is opening here for the first time in decades. We need more manufacturing here on our shores.

Just looked into this - supposed to be finished before the end of the decade and more than double the current US production. That seems like things are working as intended.

Ehh the PMAC is pretty rough.
