- Comment on Hate speech on X surged for at least 8 months after Elon Musk takeover – new research. 1 month ago:
Strange. I’ve been a daily user for 4 years. I’ve still never seen Nazi stuff. It got more political in the past 6 months, but that’s expected.
- Comment on Why I am not impressed by A.I. 1 month ago:
Yes, people are using it as the least efficient communication protocol ever.
One side asks an LLM to expand a summary into a fluff filled email, and the other side asks an LLM to reduce the long email to a summary.

Actually, it was the US president removing the convertibility of the US dollar to gold.

- Comment on Apple's controversial iPhone accessory may have been discontinued 4 months ago:
That’s certainly a good possibility.
Could it instead be related to them discontinuing the lightning port on all devices, and usb-c to 3.5mm adapters are available for $2 on temu so they’re not bothering? Is that alternate reality also possible?
A follow up, if wired headphones actually are unpopular, why are there pages and pages of sellers in all marketplaces selling usb-c to 3.5mm adapters?

This was exactly what I thought. You could start a staffing company that supplied skilled temp workers with this skill set.

- Comment on New largest prime number discovered by former Nvidia software engineer 5 months ago:
I disagree. I find it quite relevant to have the person/ group, the strategy or method, and the device used (including chipsets). Most articles on prime number discovery will mention all these things.
The fact that he worked there seems pretty irrelevant tho.
- Comment on Internet Archive breached again through stolen access tokens 5 months ago:
There are really good, incentivized versions of decentralized storage networks. Unfortunately discussions about them are stigmatizes under the “crypto” umbrella so the mere mention typically gets you buried.
If you have an open mind, check them out!
- Comment on Concerns Raised Over Bitwarden Moving Further Away From Open-Source 5 months ago:
Community is fine, your comment is at the top, along with others pointing this out.
It’s the “non-community” if you will booting this. The passerby’s not reading comments.
- Comment on Please Don’t Make Me Download Another App | Our phones are being overrun 5 months ago:
I don’t know shit about fuck when it comes to programming, but I know bad programming when I see it.
Thanks for this! I often wonder if non-programmers can see this. Such horrible programmers. And embarrassingly low bar for company outsourced it.
Some find it scary that AI might take programmers’ jobs. I like to think that it’s these type programmers being replaced, and I’m kinda keen on having that.

It’s behind a paywall for me. Good to hear I don’t have to bother with an archive link
