  • TIL after a woman dropped her phone, she slipped face-first into a 10-cm wide gap between two large boulders & landed upside down in the 3-meter deep crevice. She survived in that inverted pos...

  • "The chute that she slid down didn't go straight down, so we couldn't pull her straight up," Watts said. She had to form an 'S' shape, with her legs to one side, then the other. "Once we got her hips out, then we had to move her legs back around to the left-hand side to get her shoulder out. So, it was a bit of a maneuver to get all of her out of that little crevice."

    Terrifying. I know it's insensitive, but I can't help but think of Junji Ito's Amigara Fault. The article says she stayed strangely calm the whole time, but I can't imagine how.

  • You can just say it

  • “If you’re going to use an LLM to write me an email, I’d much rather you just send me the prompt; at least then I’d have an idea of what you actually meant to say.”

    This would solve so many problems with my manager. He has Copilot write his emails from prompts, and is frequently sending clarifications because nobody could tell what exactly he was trying to say.

    Meanwhile my emails are so short he has told me I should be using AI to make them sound friendlier. Yet nobody ever needs clarification from me because I put only the exact words needed to convey my intent.

  • That's really cool! A great example of what software engineering should actually do.

  • Yeah, this wasn't someone on the way out with nothing to lose. This was a kid who just won a $10,000 scholarship and could very well have it pulled for this. Very brave.

  • From the headline I thought this was a newsroom using source control / software development management tools to organize and archive interviews.

    Very disappointed to learn it's just exploitation.

  • I checked out their feed since I figured I must have missed a big burst of bad content, but I don't see anything misandrist. I see a few posts critical of certain men, but even that's the minority of content.

    Even going through comments I see only a healthy amount of misandry. I don't see any organizing of violence against all men, or even normalizing of it.

    If you're feeling triggered by the things you see in a space meant for an oppressed class to vent then I think you're just too sensitive.

  • Sites like this make me remember the brief period we had where internet speed outpaced website bloat. Everything just loads instantly. Outstanding.
