Yeah. Definitely might be a false cognate (if even that). Always look up etymologies if they interest you! Because so many that people repeat aren’t true. I was just speculating and hoped that was obvious, but maybe it wasn’t to everyone.

Commenters be mad

Interesting at least two people thought you’re wrong and downvoted this …

My understanding is french is the most Germanic of the romance languages, so I’d guess it came to them both from an older Germanic language

I don’t think you can take for granted most things will be ai generated. Why are you? Old or something?

I agree. The impact can be real, and that’s the case for my coding job too, maybe to a lesser extent than yours. A lot of days I think I have my dream job. But still, digital data isn’t like a Roman ruin or something. It will be gone in 1000 years. Just wild to think about, and sometimes I feel like that fact matters.

If someone has a weird vibe to them, I definitely check (discretely) what they are up to.

I feel you. I think about how intangible code is and how quickly that will fade from existence… It’s heavy, to say the least. And yet the challenge ever calls me to solve a problem with ones and zeroes.

Why would you login to…a treadmill? Why would it need internet? So you can watch Netflix on the world slowest Public computer?

The trend of having touch screens on things is horrible enough. We definitely jumped the shark with technology long ago

You seem to think that we can guarantee people have nothing based on what, “trust me bro”?

‘sooo what does that shit mean?’ to a question already answered kinda indicates anger. Intentional or not.

You’re way too mad about this

In the middle of nowhere I had 4g service in like 2011 I think. In any case I think it’s splitting hairs since I said about 15 years

4G refers to the fourth-generation of cellular network technology, first introduced in the late 2000s and early 2010s

lol alright

Cool. Enjoy your 2004 reddit practice… ?

Just feels unnecessary.

I am familiar with this anachronistic practice, however it’s never actually been helpful, unless you decide to trust a person you already started to distrust because they basically wrote at the end “trust me bro”. We can let that one go.

You don’t need to tell us you fixed spelling

I despise discord from a user interface and business practice perspective. What a piece of shit
