⚠️WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT⚠️

A fight involving multiple people and a knife happened around 11:30 near UC Berkeley.

This happened with a large crowd watching.

The video shows one man getting stabbed 3-4 times.

The man holding the knife also seemed to be threatening bystanders.

So true, not just artist and gamer, but “coder” (as opposed to engineer) was a job title that was never meant to be held by so many people. The fact that many of these people are getting displaced is both sad and inevitable.

Ultimately we have to come to terms with a reckoning that we created temporary stopgap jobs and societal roles for people to placate them if adulthood and economic sustainability took a little longer. But 80% of the jobs for young people weren’t going to last.

@hridonculous Using AI for commenting is useless when people use AI to explain code they don’t understand anyway

Software isn’t like hardware; things don’t break just because they’re old.

If the concern is silent failures like payments not going to the right people, careful migration is worth it.

I really hope this isn’t motivated only by “COBOL bad Rust good.”

[WIRED @WIRED]

Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take years—DOGE wants it done in months. https://t.co/magj7aqrMM

@BecomingCritter Wake up, wash your face WITH FACIAL CLEANSER, pat dry with a towel, THEN moisturize. You can do this faster than brushing your teeth.

Any other skincare products than these only add marginal value.

@cbugwadia32 There was a Stripe integration bug 😭 should be fixed, maybe we’ll see some multiplies this week
