Had to look up wtf broiled was

Wait until you discover rot-13 and then double it for extra encryption 

LLM's deal with this by hallucinating the number the business wants to see.

Since it looks good, and makes them feel good about their AI investment, it's instantly trustworthy and all the existing dashboards are wrong 

Galaxy brain move: requesting increases on the token limits to achieve larger KPI numbers and then arguing 'exceeds expectations' at the next performance review

Their position has always been that you can't tax your way to prosperity. At least they're consistent 

Seymour does things that are logical for his party and ideals.

If TOP makes it past the 5%, which historically has been a challenge, of course he's open to working with them. He's not a huge fan of National, and if he could form a coalition government without National or Labour then that would finally be MMP working as intended 

Yep, I've also made the mistake of cooking lean meat low and slow, which just turns it into the Sahara desert.

Everything is a learning experience 

If breadth of jobs is what you're looking for then Java will serve you slightly better than Python, anything in the Finance sector or large/"Enterprise" companies are more likely to be using Java.

How does that work? The can with a dent in it is still sealed, right?

Thanks ChatGPT

Of course you can guess, it'll be 50/50

Looks like they retconned the original acronym but my point still stands.

GIMP has never been based on qt and it's original widget toolkit became the base of the GNOME desktop environment which is a competitor to KDE/qt

The product of some people who looked at pandas and decided to rewrite it in Rust

What? Gimp is built on gtk+, gtk literally stands for "GIMP ToolKit"

Wait what? TIL

Can I talk to sales? I need a higher burn limit

That ideal "reduced" team you describe is still about 5 more people than my team has now lol

Yep. The biggest problem I had with sprints was that yay, you committed to a two week chunk of work. Pat yourself on the back.

Except there's a production system to maintain and on day 2 of the sprint your entire sprint is out the window because of a production issue.

Complete waste of time. Not to mention all the layers of indirection trying to size tasks that always get mapped back to time at the end of the day. Task is t-shirt M size? That's about 2 days right?
