Wow, this is bleak.
I read somewhere (I think the deloitte tech survey from a few years ago) that many people have replaced their pc with smartphones and use their phone as their primary tech device. Would be interesting to see if any of these low-level skill folks are actually high (or higher) on mobile skills.
I look forward to Apple Marketing coming up with their usual line of nonsense, like a meaningless name for an existing capability that they are claiming to have invented.
Nice! I got it right after the latest version came out but that's been a while. They do sales pretty regularly though. It's definitely not as massive as Adobe wrt features, but they cover the essentials well.
Excited to see more updates coming to Cult of the Lamb. I enjoyed the hell out of the main campaign and recent update.
Tried the Anger Foot demo a while back and it was okay. I may grab the full version depending on price. The aethetic is fun and interesting and the kicking mechanic is pretty satisfying.
Guys, seriously. The entire Affinity Suite is $150. Paid for updates through the current version. It's solid.
Dump Adobe.
Holy shit what a ride that was.
It's clear from a lot of stories like this (severe customer mistreatment) that United employees are miserable people who hate their jobs but this is nuts. I hope Dr. Dao got a huge settlement from United.
Is there an analog for us android users?
I don't have much direct experience working in agile since I tend to work on the business side but I can tell you that the term agile is WAY overused. So many projects are described as agile when they are just waterfall with more steps. Leaders love to say they are working in agile because it sounds 'techy' and cool, but I don't think they fully appreciate what it is vs other methods. I wonder if a lot of the failed projects described in the article are some of those agile in name only kind of things.
The story in Horizon Forbidden West is pretty good too. There's a whole bit in the dlc about Ted Faro that I did not see coming, but it makes me think a lot of the tech bros running things today.
My thinking is that it reads like the author is dismissing the whole notion that AI has risks and that the folks raising concerns were just repeating an overblown doomsday narrative.
That's what I thought and I expected to see a lot of promoting for the shiny new things and dismissing safety efforts as dampening innovation.
The title of this article is misleading. It's actually a nice summary in how AI firms have conveniently forgotten their own warnings and predictions of the dangers of AI now that they no longer need to use that messaging in making pitches to investors.
