Person unaffected by past bad decisions doesn’t see how that’s a problem.

This is why we should lock down the OS to prevent people from creating databases of people. There are so many applications out there asking for people’s DOB and that’s because we let people just install whatever app they want.
- Comment on Elon Musk to Owe Billions After Jury Finds He Misled Twitter Investors Before Takeover 2 weeks ago:
To be clear, the punishment wasn’t him loosing 2B, he wouldn’t even notice the difference. The punishment was being told he was wrong by a jury of his “peers”.

Free speech is when AIPAC channels unlimited dark money to influencers to disparage anti-zionist candidates like they did in Kat Abu’s race. Free is quickly becoming worthless.

Yeah, we are about to get served a big slice of humble pie so bring your appetite. The pain we are all experiencing is there to tell us we cannot continue they way we were. We had the option to change in the past but didn’t because it was too hard, now there is no avoiding change.

I don’t know about all of recorded history but if you’re an American or want to counter American myths, check out “A people’s history of the United States”
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
It’s an analogy that illustrates that you are doing his PR work in order to serve an unrelated cause. Is that clear enough to understand?
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
You have two masters and one is problematic. It’s nice that your master said kind things about the other, but you still have two masters.

I think you make a better point than I did. I am responding to someone looking at a racist act and insisting it wasn’t racist but stupid.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
He’s too dumb to be intentionally racist but he’s a great spoke person for your cause. 🙄
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
A win for who? Sounds like he will deter some people and attract others based on whether they think checks notes anti-Semitism is a deal breaker. Jesus Christ this is pathetic.

- Comment on Spotify says its best developers haven't written a line of code since December, thanks to AI 1 month ago:
A manager. This tool is for what managers think software development is: managing the production of code. From that perspective this hype makes a lot of sense, just turn all your current developers into managers with AI and you now have grown the team by 10x. You can go back in time and find many jokes about how adding more developers doesn’t speed up delivery but slows it down. I don’t see how AI would suddenly make that less true, especially since the AI is not accountable for its results, you are.

Big picture is AI not being able to operate under unusual conditions means that the “10 times better” has a big fucking caveat where we can’t say the stat will hold true if we replace all drivers.
