ChatGPT is happy to repeat them. Claude is too but it wanted to push back on Italy as it seemed curious as to my intentions.



I gave him so much I couldn’t afford a t 😂
He’s a great actor. I just gave him the money to pursue weird projects.


I am joking.


Yet but still if you superimpose the second image over the first you’ll see the whole planet had gotten smaller.


Guess I don’t know much about 4chan other than seeing green texts and thinking it’s a bunch of oddballs trying to solve the odd murder.
Didn’t know it was manosphere and don’t know it’s political leaning.


I had no idea that nofap was what you just described. I saw the green text as the person taking all those positives steps to get back to living life and not some Andrew Tate thing.
I apologise for my misunderstanding and wading into this discussion, as my concern is for the people who are doing things compulsively not manosphere stuff.


I do understand that, perhaps more acutely than most as I’ve had countless destructive “hobbies” (my god hobby is the softest word I could find here) that I used to mask the underlying issue. Heck I’m still not sure I know the underlying cause but I have translated those destructive things with positive ones but the goal is the same. This is all to say I’m well versed in addiction, compulsions, and poor mental health.
With that in mind I would say that sometimes you have to stop the thing you’re doing, let’s say masturbating here, so you can get your body back to baseline before you can even begin to work with a therapist or do some introspection.
I’m not saying we should demonise masturbation, just accept that for some people they may need to stop doing that for a period whilst they then fix the other shit they got going on.
I’m in my forties and really never been happy and had a shit childhood that is still the cause of the way my mind bullies me to this very day. I’ve tried therapy before but when you’re in the midst of masking all your shit with other shit you really can’t make any progress in my experience. What I’ve done now is spend several years working on myself and replacing negative addictions with positive ones. That afforded me the will power to begin to remove the substances and other coping strategies. Now I actually feel I’m in a place where I might benefit from some EMDR or trauma therapy.


Everything is a problem if you’re doing it compulsively or mask something else.
Masturbating can surprisingly help with restless leg syndrome but doing it in work might be a problem.


UK me but yeah likely the FCSC is logging them. I don’t really care to be honest. I’m pretty sure they’ve got a lot worse logged about me


I used to put thing like crack, heroin, coke & hoes; I wish I got an email like that from the bank.


😞 Sir this is a Wendy’s.
From the UK and I’ve ever seen one when actively went to the recruitment office, before I wised up and noped out of that idea.


Then just types into and don’t do any formatting. I use it daily at work for pasting text I want to keep. That’s it I type or paste I never save, I never click any menus etc.


Exactly. This reads like people are prompting for something then just using that code.
The way we use it is as a scaffolding tool. Write a prompt. Then use that boiler plate to actually solve the problem you’re trying to solve.
You could say the same for people using Stackoverflow, you don’t just blindly copy and paste.


Yeah, I totally get where you’re coming from. I think it depends on what you mean by ‘efficient.’ If we’re talking about runtime performance and memory management, C# and .NET are generally very efficient: JIT compilation, span/memory optimisations, and the garbage collector all make it competitive with Java in most workloads.
Where I agree with you is in developer efficiency: .NET projects can definitely get heavy with boilerplate, especially in enterprise setups with lots of layers, dependency injection, and config-heavy patterns. That’s not necessarily a language issue, but more a combination of the framework conventions, Microsoft’s enterprise guidance, and patterns like MVC/WebAPI scaffolding.


That’s an uncommon opinion here. Here being the operative word.
Look in I’m not going to say I wasn’t disappointed that it wasn’t Mac which I used at my last job, but when it comes down to what we need to do in a day I don’t notice the difference.
I tried Linux last year as a daily driver and gave up as I’m not looking for something else to debug in my own time. I now just want it to work.


C# development is incredibly efficient to be fair.
Have you considered not asking questions based on conjecture? No it isn’t because we are inefficient. It’s a mix of staff come first and the work comes second and a lack of greed I’d say. Most of our work comes from word of mouth and we keep client for as long as they’ll stay with us.
If a client reads a spec and get the application described and decides it’s not right we will change it for them for free to build a relationship. Which is why we get more and more requests to work with us.
But nothing else is green? So how would it be the filter.
