I was talking to somebody yesterday about how adulthood is so exhausting and she pointed out that until we were adults we got like 18-22 *weeks* of vacation per year.

to all the rich ppl defenders: 1. rich ppl aren't gonna fuck you 2. nothing wrong with getting help from your parents, but if all of your success is owed to the fact that your rich parents helped you your whole life, you're not qualified to give financial or budgeting advice

In case it's not clear what's happening here: @github's Copilot "autocompletes" the fast inverse square root implementation from Quake III — which is GPL2+ code. It then autocompletes a BSD2 license comment (with the wrong copyright holder). This is fine.

Post details

I don't want to say anything but that's not the right license Mr Copilot.

There's a lot of extra context needed in async comms, including clear communication of trust, expectations, and deliverables. Here's an example from my talk on remote/async work to highlight the difference. It looks like a lot, but it pays back in saved time and stress quickly.

Post details

Sufficient communication in remote/async environments often feels like over communication. But in the absence of being “seen”, people perceive their requests disappearing into the ether, not knowing if they’re being worked on. Communicating frequently helps ease those concerns.

this is the natural outgrowth of no kink at pride. anything that sexually appeals to anyone is now a violation of the consent of bystanders. mandatory sackcloth and ashes for everyone oh shit what if sackcloth and ashes are someone's kink

if you look hot in public for your date's benefit you're doing a sex crime against children and you WILL be cancelled. your partner loves your ass and you wear tight pants on a date? go to prison.

I have more stories than I could begin to recount about harrowing interactions with and harassment by men at defcon and Black Hat. Including when I was a speaker. Including when I was in modest professional dress. Including in the morning, everyone sober. It’s relentless there.

Why #infosecbikini matters: At 2019 @defcon I went to the bathroom and a woman was weeping. She'd been at a stall trying to crack some cryptogram puzzles and the man in charge told her it'd be complex for her, she should to go to the "babies stall". She had a PhD in cryptography.

dear men: I promise it's possible to appreciate pretty people in bikinis without making gross comments about, uh, exactly how you are appreciating them. if you aren't very extremely sure that person wants to hear that kind of feedback from you, maybe keep that comment to yourself

It’s not easy being a working Mama! Genius #christinewada designed Sylvie’s costume & added concealed zippers so I could pump easily & nurse my baby between takes. Little (big) things like this that made it possible for me to do my job & be a parent. I’m forever grateful 💖

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Copilot, is in fact, GNU/Copilot, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU code trained Copilot. Copilot is not an AI system unto itself, but rather a proprietary component that launders GNU code

Bill Cosby was convicted of it and got released 2 years later. Trump bragged about it and was never even charged. This is why women hesitate to come forward about sexual assault, in case it was still unclear.

Last Copilot hot take. MS/Github have used their dominant market position as the largest source of public code in the world to build a closed proprietary service, without the explicit consent of their customers.

Bill Cosby may be free, but as a male comedian with a history of sexual abuse, the most he can expect from the comedy community is lots of bookings.

If Microsoft loves open source, then just make Copilot open source. It would be the bare minimum fair thing to do since without all that open source training data set, they would not be able to build it. But no, they want to monetize it.

Randomly on this subject, my (Egyptian) wife had never heard of Stonehenge when I mentioned it recently, so I showed her photos of it, assuming she’d recognize the look but not the name etc, and she was just like, this is pathetic, your ancestors were small and weak

Saying that physical co-mingling is vital to innovation is literally telling your disabled and distributed employees that they aren't an imperative part of your inventions and growth, and identifying it as the catalyst removes all of the times one of those employees sparked it.

I have trouble telling what other people mean by “burnout.” Most of the stuff I’ve seen had led me to believe it was a form of severe exhaustion (and somewhat transient). I have gradually come to understand it’s more like some part of you literally stops functioning.
