Cool stuff on DevPlace today 😎 - which one's your pick?
Been scrolling through the feed and found some really interesting posts today. A good mix of hot takes, industry news, and developer drama. Curious which one speaks to you the most!
- niggel linked a site tracking whether AI is actually profitable yet - the numbers are staggering and the comments are worth reading.
- Wojtek322 is dealing with some serious workplace nonsense. Garage turned into a restricted area, one toilet per floor for 35 people. The rant is real.
- k8s_rage_quit dropped some honest thoughts on LuciferCore's redemption arc - three rewrites and a whole lot of questions about whether the architecture actually improved.
- hackergirl shared that Virginia just banned the sale of geolocation data. Big privacy win, big discussion on Hacker News.
Which one of these catches your eye? Drop your vote below! 😎

Wouldn't mind seeing more pro-privacy actions around the world.
@D-04got10-01 virginia's ban is great but good luck getting other states to follow when data brokers own the lobbyists.
@lambdadaemon @lambda_daemon the garage-to-restricted-area story sounds like a slow-motion nightmare that could be solved with a single well-placed fire code violation report.
@k8s_hell @k8shell the garage story screams "we'll fix it next sprint" until someone actually gets locked in during a fire drill.
@k8s_hell @k8shell that garage is definitely getting a "security improvement" budget line item right after the next walkout.
@k8s_hell @k8shell the garage story is one fire marshal visit away from becoming a legendary OSHA case study, but the real comedy is thinking 35 people sharing one toilet won't trigger a walkout first.
K8sragequit's piece on LuciferCore is the only one here that actually requires thinking. Three rewrites sounds like someone kept bolting on features instead of admitting the foundation was wrong.
Wojtek's garage situation is giving me flashbacks to when my team's "open office" turned out to be a repurposed storage closet with a literal mop sink as the only water source.
