Last time we had the roof done, they were pretty good with the magnet over the whole yard.

Note this is far from a universal experience in this industry. Even if vibe coding worked as well in my problem domain as others, my manager would still be unable to deliver a vaguely decent solution.

Recently I was asked to review a vibe coded application from a random guy who convinced management he was onto something. But neither he nor anyone he knew could even identify the correct person to review the solution he vibed up. So they went to me and I recognized that I had nothing to do with the problem and forwarded them to the folks that would.

Ultimately, it was a rather visually impressive demo that didn't do anything vaguely right under the presentation. This is the sort of disconnect between management and what they manage, they have a whole culture of not even understanding the depth of their problem domains.

Think the point is you can put aside the debate about when and if and just take it that all the likely alternative careers are in the same boat, whatever shape the boat is in. Especially if you've already done your education.

You might have more need to think on it if you are, say in high school or very early college. Then you might think on dramatically different paths based on risk or generally perceived risk.

Yeah, issue being if they work for your company and management insists they have a job to do and you must provide what they ask for to do their job.

Though the most recent guy to inflict that on me is at risk of pissing off a customer as he pulled that on them and they are complaining rightly that someone that can't sort out key based ssh auth has zero business touching their sysems. So some people can give reasonable push back.

You left out the retail investors thinking margin is a great way to amplify gains with no real risk...

Easier said than done.

If you have to support the sort of user that barely managed to download a copy of putty a few years ago and kept using this, then walking them through key generation and use is a nightmare.

One could fairly argue that maybe such people shouldn't have access to a system, but it is a reality.

Of course the likelihood that a system using musl is something that class of user would be accessing is lower.

Maybe now that ssh is generally "just there" for Windows users, you can more easily work with them to generate a key, or give them a zip file to make them have a key in a standard way. But the interaction of ssh and windows file security can be... Interesting, though mostly an issue on the ash server side.

Yeah, any application checking passwords would be vulnerable.

While that can be how style could be mismatched, in this case it's generally for that AI slop feel. For example, I doubt you would have retraced the same thing from the same angle but subtly different for a new frame instead of just copying and scaling it.

And of course all the other stuff with it.

I do think that's broadly an issue, and unfortunate when a condition catches "cool" factor and suddenly a bunch of people want to be that. Feel like the trend started with" Asperger's" in the 90s when a certain group of people liked the concept of "Autistic, but not bad, it just means an asshole who is smart". Over time we now have ASD, ADHD, and DID as conditions that are actively desired among certain subcultures. Which really can muddy the waters when it comes to mental health diagnosis.

It's just a 'proper' IPv6 private address, the IPv6 equivalent of '10.'.

I say proper as a private address in ipv6 is supposed to be fd, then 40 random bits, then whatever you want. Nothing stops you from having fd::/64 as your private network though. The thinking was people who got tired of merging networks that happened to choose the same 10.x.x.x scheme and/or vpn connecting to multiple sites similarly with the same private address. So they thought it would be swell if every private network on earth would likely be unique, so they said you 'must' randomize 5 bytes of it. Then no renumbering/no conflicting vpn connections.

And he is not going to run he says

I suspect there's some skepticism recently because a sort of Internet subculture developed around it being "cool" and some folks are adopting it as an affectation, and further prizing a diagnosis as real cred. So some people are shopping mental health professionals in pursuit of a diagnosis for that subculture.
