Taiwanese semiconductor industry is what you get with your typical asiatic clan-driven society and force them into industry. TSMC was founded in this way, govt forced big influential families to massively invest and since they didn't want their investments go poof they had to pull their weight [spoiler]and scam phillips in the process[/spoiler]. Similar story with japanese heavy industries, brits got the tech in, strong merchant yamauchi clan got the deal and rest is history. Dunno about south korea, but its probably similar.

They actually came at me with that shit, I told them that shit was going to get dropped because it was impossible.

Remote work means no commute. Remote work means I can choose to live where I want, instead of paying inflated real estate prices and having to deal with the HUSTLE and BUSTLE of a VIBRANT urban hellscape.

>is basic socialization in reality too scary for you?
NTA however "socializing" with the 3rd world and bitter insufferable 30+ year old women is not what I consider to be a professional environment.
Large portions of the developed world have fallen into the deepest pits of hell where hideous demonic figures reign over what's left of the civilization they worked tirelessly to destroy.

Having a mix is pretty great, some things are way easier when you're not being distracted with questions and minor problems. Besides everyone has a bunch of communication tools to get together remotely to solve problems.

>iPhone
It wasn't that bad at first and Nokia was already pushing many smartphone ideas before Apple did it
>Instagram
I always saw and see Instagram as the lesser evil: ads are not as painfully bad as they are on facebook, you can actually block most of the content you don't want to see and sometimes people actually use it as a social network, just like early years facebook.
>Snapchat
That's just a convoluted way to access porn

The four horsemen of the Internet apocalypse are:
Facebook: for implementing the aggresive ways to push ads and gather data
Twitter: for implementing "always show things that the user hates to generate traffic" in the news feed algorithm
mobile gaming and casinos: for inventing all the the abusive ways to monetize 0 and 1s that regular people can't resist
Tiktok: for destroying people's attention span

Food tasted better, had bigger portions, and was cheaper. Clothes were of higher quality. Products in general were made better. DMV parking stickers were very sturdy and impossible to rip apart.

Now most food you buy tastes like shit and have smaller portions. Clothes are thinner and are frequently mixed fabrics. DMV parking stickers are sticky aluminum foil that fall apart with the slightest touch.

The point of no return was when they started mass outsourcing. It became a race to the bottom.

Zsh has the same functionality with one of these plugins: plugins=(git zsh-autosuggestions zsh-syntax-highlighting)
Ble.sh also have this, but ble.sh is slow like ass compared to Zsh

>>102263532
I might check out zsh one of these days then. It's a feature I didn't wanna lose which is why I always ignored zsh.

Because 90% of what people spam the board with looks like garbage or is some debugging code novelty shit. ChatGPT, the way people use it, is more akin to a google search with extra steps than an actual intelligence. This incredible new business opportunity I mean technology that's going to pad our pockets, I mean, change the world seems like a wet fart.
I pose the opposite question: Why is there so much incoherent, sometimes emotional defense of "AI" in general? Seems orchestrated. Either by state actors or people with a pony in the race.

If you want a realtalk answer, it's unironically because of where AI currently is. Current AI models aren't actually that useful or end-to-end in their capabilities, BUT they are way more useful than they used to be.
If you're an artist or a writer, Midjourney, ChatGPT or Claude are already able to do much of the heavy lifting. And yet it's so clearly not competent at tying things together, or loses coherence, or has that very noticeable "AI slop" quality.
Most nonartists won't improve it, and yet they'll continue claiming they're artists unironically.
Imagine you're a chef at an upscale restaurant, or maybe just a chef in training at such a restaurant, and a customer comes in and starts selling McDonalds cheeseburgers in your establishment and arguing furiously that he's a real chef too and deserves to be here, even though the burgers still have the wrappers and receipts on them.
There just isn't enough utility in this current class of AI to convince people. It hallucinates too much for starters, so you can't trust any of the answers it gives you.
Before now, before DALL-E 2 and Stable Diffusion, AI art looked very dreamlike, and artists loved it because it didn't come close to replicating their craft but instead gave them inspiration and a look into raw concepts.
When it becomes "perfect" (able to replicate hand-drawn imperfections and oddities, as well as advanced compositions and consistency) they'll be too demoralized to fight it directly and instead seek protections for workers.
But right now, it's too weak, too niche, a party trick hyped up by its users.

>Even the ones that don't have glaring flaws have that same unreal engine plastic sheen to them
You wanna know the saddest part?
It's perfectly feasible to get an AI image gen to make an image that doesn't have that look at all
It took a bit of practice to get it right, but I made this for a friend (he asked me to create a lora for his character), and I've been able to consistently get stuff that completely lacks the "slop" look
I have no idea why AIshartists don't care other than maybe what >>102263439 said
>Most nonartists won't improve it, and yet they'll continue claiming they're artists unironically.
I don't consider myself an artist at all, even though I have a more art-centric background than most using the tech.

Either are OK.
I would go with Java if I was to target enterprise and/or work in the data field.
Maybe Go if I wanted to mingle existing system and a quick prototype.
But overall both are more than enough. That's the kind of decision you take based on the hands you have available. Go with the majority knows.

>>102263337 (OP)
If you don't know either just use Go. You can hack together something in either, it's just Java, especially Spring, is going to assume you're very familiar with OOP design patterns and when you show it off trying to get a job they'll expect you to have a clear grasp of them. Although, if you flip through the Head First book and think "this is genius", go for Java.

I hate this guy.

It's also unusable on a desktop, because it tries to be usable on a touch screen. So it fails in both cases. Gnome is unusable because they haven't found a use case for it yet.

I poked at my huntsman v2 in several ways to make it good for typing since I type all day long. In stock mode it was basically an arthritis speedrunner especially with the brutal metal pinging. Now it's soft and pliable and dare I say excellent. I have zero fatigue typing on it, the only reason I modded it was I got redpilled on keyboards lately and I didn't want to turn my huntsman into ewaste just so I could CONSOOM a fully customized board with creamy marble thocks.
I lubed the razer, replaced the foam pad with a thicker one, added foam between the pcb and metal plate because I wanted to try everything to reduce the metallic ping and painful reverb after each keystroke, and used double washers for mounting it on every screw point. You should see how ridiculous it is but damn if it doesn't feel far better than stock mode.

Why are these keycaps so nice? Is there any cheap alternative?

>>102263259
I think I've had them for 2 months or so, haven't noticed any issue yet. I'm using the 48g V3 model.
They recently released a V4 version that I haven't seen anyone review yet, they might be holding up for longer.

60 + numpad is such a sensible layout. I've got everything I need. Numpad nav just works.

Does anyone know where I can find MX lock switches? Would like one for my numlock.

I would love php if the language itself wasn’t such a mudball with the ugly syntax, naming inconsistencies, the incorporation of OOP, etc. The simplicity of the core idea though is great and I wish there was a modern equivalent that learned from its mistakes.
