Do you even know what "toxin people" are?

Uhmm... profitable customers?

I vote for calling them Green Hobbits.

Schadenfreude is priceless; no finite amount of money can match it.

Maybe AI (AWKI these days) is worth something after all?

Saudi Arabia is our friend!

The best thing about all these AI stories is they give people a lot more chances for a FP.

Monitor, certainly. But why would they have remote control that can set a FREEZER to 50C?

The manager would.

I guess Yandex's DR sites don't have the latest updates installed.

Given that Russia can't refine crude or deliver fuel and now it's data centers are dropping like flies, they're the ones heading for the bronze age.

Sooner or later, the oligarchs will be showing Putin the window. He's making it hard to make a dishonest buck.

Exactly this. I have experimented with using AI, but absolutely forbid it to actually check in code. I just let it show me it's proposal. It can be useful at that, but often needs to be prodded about criteria it left out and frequently the final result needs a re-write for maintainability at least. It has a tendency to use really convoluted logic which can be greatly simplified without changing the result.

It does much better as a search tool. It's pretty good at finding exactly where some feature is implemented in a large codebase.

You wrap them in plastic carefully first. The cameras are perfectly safe in the protective concrete packaging.

I remember listening in on a great phone call to a network provider about sending someone to pick up their expensive Cisco router. It ended with "in 30 days, it's going in the dumpster.

I personally 'uninstalled' another router by disconnecting the fiber cables...with side cutters. 2 months later, they actually tried to bill us for bandwidth we supposedly used from the completely disconnected router. We sent them a picture.

Kinda like a /. post.
