I wonder if this will also have a reverse tail end effect.

Company uses AI (with devs) to produce a large amount of code -> code is in prod for a few years with incremental changes -> dev roles rotate or get further reduced over time -> company now needs to modernize and change very large legacy codebase that nobody really understands well enough to even feed it Into the AI -> now hiring more devs than before to figure out how to manage a legacy codebase 5-10x the size of what the team could realistically handle.

Writing greenfield code is relatively easy, maintaining it over years and keeping it up to date and well understood while twisting it for all new requirements - now that's hard.

Good point, thank you for pointing it out.

Maybe a better way to phrase it is that a report from the investigator could qualify what they considered/found when they said the claims were false, baseless etc, and any evidence they found/data they had access to. (E.g. if they could look at all internal communication but their data retention policy is 6 months and this happened 7 months ago, its not the same as not finding anything)

For example, "allegations of sexual harassment were ignored or not addressed" is a wide range. It could be there were no allegations recorded from the employee (as in, they weren't reported), or they were addressed by a slap on the wrist or a "just don't do that again" to introducing workplace behaviour training, forcing the perpetrator to go through it, suspending them without pay and so on.

You are right it's not proof of no wrongdoing, but it would serve as proof that they handled things in a generally suitable manner, rather than that they managed to twist things around to check a box for the investigator.

Release an actual report of the investigation by the third party rather than a statement.

What claim was investigated, what proof did they find if any, what evidence did they have access to etc.

Finding no proof of wrongdoing or proof of no wrongdoing is a big difference.

Yea idk.

After having dealt with some audits (although not this exact topic), in general they followed the same format. "Assert that we do the thing we claim to be doing". So if the thing they claim to be doing is a low bar, the audit means nothing. If they dont release any evidence, or a report of what they were ascertaining it means very little IMO.

I can't remember if the employee released any evidence with her claims either though, but in general I'd prefer my odds with assuming her story is closer to the truth against a company which has had other mishaps recently, underpinned by evidence. All of which they tried to brush under the carpet.

So yeah. I'm pressing X for doubt.

So they filled reddit with bot generated content, and now they're selling back the same stuff likely to the company who generated most of it.

At what point can we call an AI inbred?

I have never seen contributors get anything for open source contributions.

In larger, more established projects, they explicitly make you sign an agreement that your contributions are theirs for free (in the form of a github bot that tells you this when you open a PR). Sometimes you get as much as being mentioned in a readme or changelog, but that's pretty much it.

I'm sure there may be some examples of the opposite, I just.. Wouldn't hold my breath for it in general.

Agree that it's misleading, but to add there is another significant concern given how glassdoor is already "pay to win" from the companies perspective: they could just offer identifying the users as a paid service.

It would be digging their own grave if that starts happening, but that doesn't seem to be stopping many companies..

Haven't had any experience with eweka, but this is the reason why people tend to have multiple providers from different backbones and multiple indexers - to increase your chance for completion. Weirdly, eweka does not follow DMCA, but NTD which I've seen regarded as slower to take down content, so in theory the experience should be better, especially on fresh content.

Your mileage will vary greatly depending on what indexers/providers you pick and unfortunately it's very difficult to say whether it will reach your expectations until you try different options.

If you're willing to spend some more on it, you could try just looking for a small and cheap block account from a different backbone to see if it helps with the missing articles, but there are no guarantees.

I've been looking for plexamp alternatives for jellyfin/emby - if you're interested https://symfonium.app/ seems pretty cool (it costs like $5 for a lifetime purchase but has a trial). It also works with Plex.

Jellyfin is a fork of emby from the time when emby went closed source. They are very similar, emby has a similar thing to Plex pass (emby premiere) to monetize for extra features, but it's not enshittified (yet, maybe - who knows).

I'm not sure if it's available without premiere but it has the intro detection and skip feature, which is one of the main things I miss from jellyfin. I also prefer the app on android TV for some small reasons (over jellyfin). I'm not sure if it's overall better, especially if you hadn't already paid for it - I got a lifetime pass on it for cheap once.

Very difficult to predict the future, but my bet would be on no (to the in 20years question).

I doubt the hardware would last 20 years and eventually it'll become hard to source parts as the popularity falls off, even if you could repair it yourself. I'm sure anything with an online dependency will not work either, but offline games have a chance.

But the real question is would you want to use the switch in 20 years (or honestly, even today)? There is already a better alternative (steam deck) with a much more open platform with way more capabilities and I believe it can already emulate Nintendo games (although no first hand experience with that)

I have a switch myself and would never recommend it to anyone personally.

Unless you configure pihole to connect to CF via DoH, the above is still entirely true. Pihole is not a privacy tool, it's a filtering tool.

I used to have this setup too until I realised spending a single hour per year on pihole "costs" me more than paying for a good DNS resolver which can also do the blocking, and I can easily use on my phone as well when I'm away. I'm very happy to have switched, personally.
