We’re not banning AI. Our policy requires that projects:
— Kickstarter (@Kickstarter) August 1, 2023
✅ Involve human creative input
✅ Credit and obtain permission for any artist's work that it references
We want Kickstarter to be a place where creators can embrace emerging tech. But it's crucial to continue honoring…

There's nothing in the comments you wouldn't expect to hear since it's such a tired subject, but it's amusing how much energy and seethe people are still putting into it.

The supermassive leak contains data from numerous previous breaches, comprising an astounding 12 terabytes of information, spanning over a mind-boggling 26 billion records. The leak, which contains LinkedIn, Twitter, Weibo, Tencent, and other platforms' user data, is almost certainly the largest ever discovered.
There are data leaks, and then there's this. A supermassive Mother of all Breaches (MOAB for short) includes records from thousands of meticulously compiled and reindexed leaks, breaches, and privately sold databases. The full and searchable list is included at the end of this article.
Bob Dyachenko, cybersecurity researcher and owner at SecurityDiscovery.com, together with the Cybernews team, has discovered billions upon billions of exposed records on an open instance whose owner is unlikely ever to be identified.

one of my favorite things about hacker news commenters is how they start out a little weird but not really that far out there, and then slowly reveal more information and you get a full view into their demented life
I live in my car. It's awesome.
Oddly enough, I live in an even older Ford Fusion and it's really easy. Spend time at the Library, Starbucks and get a gym membership for showering. I work full-time and don't peepee around with washing dishes or anything. Got an inverter and think of my car as a generator with wheels.
I took out my front passenger seat so I can lay down to sleep. Made it through the summer in the south and it was pretty bad, but you sleep while your body sweats and you deal with mosquitos and flies on the regular.
and then later
No, I eat Budding Ham and Walmart cheese sandwiches + goldfish crackers and Aldi energy drinks as my 75% source + strawberries and bananas. My diet is mostly sandwiches and Taurine...

boot campers are not engineers [-2]
Eh, as long as you have a BS in it you're a Computer Scientist imo. Understanding everything from circuits, hardware, Networking and the electrical properties involved in computing is very technical stuff which gets taught to you. Then you add programming, languages, OSses and there is a ton of knowledge specific to the field that separates you from the layman or even casual learner.
Then you get into Data structures, algorithms, calculus, discrete etc. Some specialties go a bit further into other disciplines like physics and various other classical sciences
Ah yes, the barrier to being a scientist is knowing first year calculus and what a hashmap is
"Software Engineer" is a very common title. I would not call myself just 'engineer' without the 'software' prefix because 'engineer' by itself is just pretty meaningless.
“engineer” by itself means Mechanical/Chemical/Civil/etc in my opinion. Calling yourself an engineer as a software person is a bit much. [-80]
Thank you! Some devs are acting like their code review is the same as the process and responsability that in building a bridge. [-1]
Software engineer is a valid title and if you‘re working in a company where the only type of engineer that exists is a software engineer, then it makes sense to leave out the “software”. [... the entire post was too long ]
heckin' valid title
and there's way more threads of arguing if they aren't engineers then why are their titles at work software engineer
