A surprising number of industries, from embroidery to aviation, still use floppies. Because there's just no copy for that floppy
The fax machine still thinks they're the newcomer though

Microsoft's chatbot AI is being developed as a "copilot" for users to help them not only find what they are looking for but also to help them be more creative. A few years ago, something similar was being pushed out to consumers: voice assistants. The new ones are just as dumb, but shinier

Elon Musk’s steep layoffs have left Twitter with so few engineers that only one person was on a major project involving the platform’s API Never have so many owed so much to one engineer
Ooops
"only one site reliability engineer has been staffed on the project"
Let he without, etc.

We’re announcing the next generation of AI product updates across our business applications portfolio, including the launch of the new Microsoft Dynamics 365 Copilot – providing interactive, AI-powered assistance across business functions. You're getting an AI assistant! And YOU'RE getting an AI assistant!
I was going to say, "What do you call Sales with an AI assistant? 'About to be made redundant'", but I figured that was more than a little mean (and _probably_ not true)

The deciding factor between a career that has a lasting impact on your company and one that doesn’t is just one thing: your documentation. Senior developers too
Or is it just that they already knew that? (not many of the seniors I know of)

Doom is the game that became a benchmark. From its humble beginnings on a 386 PC, it has been ported to run on everything. Power-efficient fragging
Have we hit the bottom yet? (until a new chip comes out?)

Quote: the NDP200 could be easily integrated into vehicle and home security systems.
Now THAT would be a revolution on home security. Turrets on the corners of the house and the AI learns to blast the burglars.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

Unfortunately, even criminals have some rights. 
No, I don't want to start a debate about the Universal Rights of Man, Civil Rights, The Assumption of Innocence in law, etc.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Hiring senior devs for junior salaries is what's vexing companies (and has for several years.)
Trying to hire devs with "shotgun" job descriptions doesn't help. Just got an email from a recruiter saying they were looking for C++ engineers, except the actual posting listed C++ in passing.
