- Comment on Don't mess with your teacher 1 week ago:
It’s not uncommon for doctorate holders to have limited knowledge outside of their field.
Regardless, your professors have been on the planet longer than you. Never underestimate wisdom.
- Comment on 41% of companies worldwide plan to reduce workforces by 2030 due to AI 2 weeks ago:
Even if the tool is available to all, only large businesses and corporations will be able to afford the aforementioned risk. Startups couldn’t afford the insurance if AI is anywhere in the pipeline of a health or safety related product or service.
- Comment on 41% of companies worldwide plan to reduce workforces by 2030 due to AI 2 weeks ago:
That’s the plan. Smaller businesses will fold while corporations that can simply fire a department manager will prosper. Once AI is reliable, it’ll just be another tool for wealth inequality.

- Comment on Ethics and Morality thrown out the window 3 weeks ago:
How do people cope with repeated exposure to trauma? If you ask any first responder, it’ll be sarcasm every time. Dehumanizing the situation is a defense mechanism for psychological survival.
What is the point of all of the rageful, hateful fearmongering about ‘foreigners’ from right wing media?
This is the point.
- Comment on I still don’t think companies serve you ads based on spying through your microphone 3 weeks ago:
The ones serving up the ads aren’t listening. They’re buying collated data from many different sources, then their algorithm matches your interests with one of the products they’re contracted to sell.

2025?
Feels more like Season 5 of 2016.
- Comment on Two decades after Enron’s bankruptcy, the company is back as a crypto firm? 4 weeks ago:

Good eye. Turns out they’re both frames from a video.

Here’s the original photo before the low-quality noise reduction and oversaturation, in case anyone else is interested.

- Comment on Stop wasting money on shrinks and drugs - read this book 4 weeks ago:
Oh sure. There are people who crutch all sorts of disabilities and use them to justify poor behavior. I was just having fun with the shitpost.

From the author of
“Have You Tried Exercise”
and
“It’s All in Your Head”
- Comment on A majority of migrant workers employed with H-1B visas are paid below-median wages: Large tech firms, including Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, use visa program to underpay workers 4 weeks ago:
Exactly. Musk is using skill as a red herring to divert focus away from the tech industry layoffs and underpayment of imported labor.
- Comment on Why is Trump orange? 1 month ago:
He definitely looks less like the old eccentric guy that glued thousands of bottle caps, buttons, and toys to the outside of his 1987 Yugo.
- Comment on Why is Trump orange? 1 month ago:
This is the real Donald J. Trump.
- Comment on Judge Rejects Sale of Infowars to The Onion 1 month ago:

I would be crippled with anxiety just being in that room.
- Comment on flouride 2 months ago:
Removing fluoride won’t break the water. However, it may break our teeth.
- Comment on brains! 2 months ago:
Well done. So even added to the electrical consumption it’s less than an incandescent bulb. Incredible.
- Comment on brains! 2 months ago:
It was estimated back when incandescent was standard.
Keep in mind that’s not accounting for energy consumed from neurons burning oxygen, which accounts for 20% of a human body’s consumption.
- Comment on Authorities must effectively regulate social media instead of banning children and young people 2 months ago:
Just a thought, someone should make a regulated platform for tweens. They are the largest consumer demographic, so there’s strong advertising potential that could drive the platform.

I’d be down if the kept Scrooge’s cane pogo from the original game. It was the only way to play.
- Comment on Trump’s FCC chair is Brendan Carr, who wants to regulate everyone except ISPs 2 months ago:
Carr wants to end the “censorship cartel?” All of the current internet censorship is Republican state legislation on pornography. I’m pretty sure those are staying in place.

- Comment on Trump nominates fracking magnate and climate change skeptic as energy secretary 2 months ago:
“There is no climate crisis and we are not in the midst of an energy transition either,” he said, adding that “the term carbon pollution is outrageous” because all life depended on carbon dioxide.
“There is no such thing as clean energy or dirty energy, all energy sources have impacts on the world both positive and negative,” he added.
Trump is setting up a race between climate change, pandemics, and world war.
