That’s gotta be one hell of a raise for those folks
Hope they played it right. I knew someone who worked on proprietary factory machines and he always refused to train anyone else on them and got paid stupid amounts to service them.
I know an engineer that does very well because he services systems originally programmed in Fortran.
i mean my [very old computer language] expertise gets me some business every now and then, but it’s usually really old POS terminals.
Those “POS” terminals can’t be hacked, worked fine for 40 years, and paying a guy to maintain them is far cheaper than a modern system anyone can hack and will get bricked with a software update.
oh sorry. Point of Sale, not Piece of Shit.
I’m pretty sure they can be hacked, i’m just not sure anyone would think it was worth it.
i don’t know what their maintenance fees are, but the enrollment fees at square are cheaper than what i charge for fucking around with [old programming language].
the difference is my clients’ system is custom to them. i just don’t know why they haven’t switched.
What… Of Fortran that old already?
Damn, I am that old already…
The idea that Fortran is old is old at this point.
Does that make it new or old squared?
If you read the article they only realized that they fired them too early and hired them back to train the machine first.
Should not the AI be used to perform the work without errors
You cannot inspect quality into a product just find faults for rework and identify process improvements.
QA vs QC, but then again the good ole USA does not differentiate, it is all QA to them!
QA Inspector as a role ROFL! Really?
Another Klarna moment.
