You guys can downvote all you want. If you don't already realize this you'll realize soon enough.

> AI-assisted coding, on the other hand, rekindled my passion for computers.

AI-assisted coding isn't a thing. Why would anyone pay you to code when your competitor spends 1 minute spelling out a problem and doing the same thing for 59 more problems?

As far as I'm concerned coding is dead as a profession, now we are Harness Managers.

> Unfortunately I am not sure the 'tech' industry will have a lot of use for me, pretty soon.

That's the core issue. Our time is running out pretty soon anyway. I have no intention of downgrading my lifestyle to the point of near homelessness, better be dead.

This is basically me in 2026. Life has no meaning and I'm waiting for my money to run out before I end it. Hopefully I can find a job that doesn't bore me but I'm not positive.

And yet if you click export it will gladly print out a plaintext csv with your whole life in passwords. Doesn't even attempt to zip it with password or something.

I don't disagree, but it depends. Some files just don't stand alone and are related to each other.

"Stream" photo libraries of people who take pictures for work know this issue all too well: there's a lot of junk mixed with their personal photos. What if we had... folders: one personal and one for work or per customer.

I think you're gonna lose a lot of comments here to the "Finder" word here. The problem is not the Finder but directories, which exist on all operating systems.

With that aside, this is a great idea for most files. Of course my images are still in folders with the projects they belong to, but my life photos are in one stream. Files, contacts, a lot of data would benefit greatly from this visualization.

As for people with 1000 files on their desktop, who cares, they are as good as hoarders and they get what it comes to them. Discipline helps both in the real and in the digital world.

What I mean is that the browser has exceptions for Google and that most likely not all code paths follow the user settings. Still a bug though.

I wouldn't say false especially when quoting the whole sentence. What you suggest is so rare (worldwide) it might as well be false. It's such a bad idea for the airline to ship your bags before the passenger makes it onto the plane.

Mind sharing what the incident was? Carrying too many valuables?

FWIW your bags may still occasionally travel without you (but you still have to board A flight)
