Oh yeah, I feel sorry for all the Immich users who know it just won’t happen to them. Losing your movie collection sucks but you can download again, but personal photos deserve much better treatment. Though it sucks paying extra for cloud backup of your photos.

I mean, it’s more of trillions of trillions of trillions… (repeat many times more) and that’s only until the heat death, the universe will continue to exist, though it would be a pretty boring place to visit after the black holes die.

Depends on what kind of forever. If it’s truly forever and there’s nothing you can do about it, that sounds like hell (imagine being the only thing floating in the universe after the heat death!) but if you can decide after 200, 500, 1000 years you’ve had enough, it really sounds like a pretty sweet deal.

Obviously. Immortality is hard without a solid plan.

The fun part of quasi-immortality is that you can make your life pretty amazing!

Money isn’t really that much of a problem if you don’t have the certainty of being old and unable to provide for yourself.

If we’re speaking how I’d like to do that if possible, just put my brain into a robot body. Or just upload my whole mind into a robot.

If we’re talking realistically:

Codex is not bad. I use it for personal projects and Claude at work, so I can directly compare and Codex seems better to me.

Today I removed some functions and moved some code to separate services and being the lazy guy I am, I told it to update the tests so they no longer fail. The idiot pretty much undid my changes and updated the code to something very much resembling the original version which I was refactoring. And the fucker did it twice, even with explicit instructions to not do it.

Loved learning programming as a teen, never wanted to do it as a job, then when I got older I realized that’s the only marketable skill I have, so I became a developer.

I philosoph around a lot. It’s not good for my mind.

I mean, forever might be too strong of a word.

Pretty much all of my open source. It’s not literally zero, but over the whole time I made as much from open source as I make in two hours in my regular job.

So yeah, two hours paid out of over a decade of open source is basically $0.

I don’t make any ground breaking stuff, so I don’t expect to live off of it, still would be nice to buy a lunch once a month from stuff thousands of developers use.

The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

The very same Douglas Adams

For how many more articles are they gonna milk the “story”?

Well, unlike God this at least sounds possible, even though yeah, it’s a pointless discussion, not provable nor unprovable.

No, we can’t prove we’re in a simulation or outside of it. We can prove that we can’t currently create such a simulation but that doesn’t change anything.

What a bunch of nonsense. So, pseudo-scientists repeat after me: you cannot derive rules of the outer universe from the inner universe.

The only way to “prove” the hypothesis is if an admin sends a message or leaves some other way for us to discover we’re in a simulation, other than that it’s unprovable and undisprovable.

I did maintenance, I just didn’t want to invest into it more than I paid for it.

Well, that’s why you’ll have to try out. Or ask someone to at least try whether it opens, the apps mostly either fail on start because they require a Google certified Android, or they don’t fail at all.

What’s it made of? Adamantium? I managed to reach 200k kilometres (~120k miles) with one of my previous cars and I was afraid it would just break and the repairs would cost more than the car did (which did happen, but not to me, it was after I sold it for a 30-pack of beers).
