- Comment on He thinks they'll just GIVE him money? 4 days ago:
Yeah, he has a bunch of tells like that. “Like you wouldn’t believe” means it’s definitely a lie, “Nobody knew X” means “I didn’t know this thing everyone else knows until they explained it to me”.
- Comment on Diplomacy dies on live TV as Trump and Vance gang up to bully Ukraine leader 4 days ago:
If he was broke she wouldn’t be his wife any more, it’s not like he’s got anything else on offer.
- Comment on Diplomacy dies on live TV as Trump and Vance gang up to bully Ukraine leader 4 days ago:
He’s been doing well financially by doing exactly that. These people just look at what’s good for their immediate family, not society as a whole.
- Comment on Sergey Brin says AGI is within reach if Googlers work 60-hour weeks 5 days ago:
Yeah, suddenly they’ll go from 60 hour work weeks to 0 if the AI proponents are to be believed (which you shouldn’t).
- Comment on Exclusive: Microsoft is finally shutting down Skype in May 5 days ago:
Also forced people to use a Microsoft account to use it, and they definitely messed something up in the migration.
- Comment on New app lets homebuyers know about future neighbor’s politics. 6 days ago:
Yep, that’s what I was thinking too
- Comment on Swastikcar showing a roman rust pattern in Lower Manhattan 1 week ago:
Eh, I would reserve the hate for cybertrucks specifically. A ton of people bought one before he went full Nazi.
- Comment on Why don't Taco Trucks have a recognizable theme song and menu like Ice Cream Trucks? 1 week ago:
I don’t know about where you live, but here there’s thousands of different cuisine trucks. Burger trucks, Indian, Portuguese, pasta, Korean, baked potatoes, etc.
- Comment on EU consumers don’t trust US goods: a look into Trump’s trade deficit claims 2 weeks ago:
Should the EU just open their borders for hormone filled products and other crap? You can mock some of the EU regulations, and part of it is definitely pure protectionism, but it’s generally good.
They forced every phone to use USB for charging, for example. Globally. On the downside they also forced those damn cookie banners on us.
- Comment on New Junior Developers Can’t Actually Code. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, and the way it will confidently give you a wrong answer instead of either asking for more information or saying it just doesn’t know is equally annoying.
- Comment on New Junior Developers Can’t Actually Code. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I feel like I read the exact same article about stackoverflow 10 years ago. Junior devs will paste code from anywhere in their project until they properly learn the language/framework/platform.
- Comment on New Junior Developers Can’t Actually Code. 2 weeks ago:
It’s only useful for stuff that’s been done a million times before in my experience. As soon as you do anything outside of that, it just stays hallucinating.
- Comment on How does this pic show that Elon Musk doesnt know SQL? 2 weeks ago:
They were designed to be only used for the administration of social security. Since they were sending monthly checks, they needed a way to know that the person going to the office and saying their address changed was who they said they were. This was at a time before driver’s licences were common and they didn’t have any other type of ID, and there were just a lot fewer people.
Later on the SSN started to be used by banks and other entities even though it was never meant for that, and the risks associated with the relatively insecure design just compounded, because instead of just fraudulently claiming someone else’s social security checks (which, unless the target died, would probably be figured out within a month), it opened up all sorts of extra avenues for fraud.
- Comment on Liberal women 'least happy and loneliest', according to new survey 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, probably has a lot to do with the policies targeting exactly those women.

- Comment on Anyone Can Push Updates to the DOGE.gov Website 2 weeks ago:
- only if you’re behind like 7 proxies
- Comment on The eye-popping amount of money Elon Musk has already slashed from the Education Department as staff melt down 3 weeks ago:
I hear the government is funneling billions to some sort of satellite internet thing that wouldn’t be economically viable without those subsidies. Maybe they should look into that waste.
- Comment on The eye-popping amount of money Elon Musk has already slashed from the Education Department as staff melt down 3 weeks ago:
They’ll give it to Musk instead. If past behaviour is any indication, Republicans will actually raise the taxes for anyone except the top 5 percentile.
- Comment on Elon Musk has deep ties to the Chinese dictatorship. The risk to U.S. national security is unimaginable. 3 weeks ago:
Because he is. Ironically China could help because they’re actually willing to jail their billionaires.
- Comment on French President Emmanuel Macron announces €100 billion investments in AI 3 weeks ago:
Eh, copilot is still more miss than hit whenever I use it. It’s probably equally dogshit for other uses as well unless your goal is to just generate bullshit.
- Comment on The Cybertruck Appears to Be More Deadly Than the Infamous Ford Pinto, According to a New Analysis 3 weeks ago:
I mean, the thing is already outright illegal in most countries where pedestrian safety is taken into account. An EU version would have to look completely different.
- Comment on this year has been pretty fun so far 3 weeks ago:
The ‘For You’ feed Musk is pushing on everyone.
- Comment on this year has been pretty fun so far 3 weeks ago:
I want to know which dying kids had Kanye on their list.

Trump thinks the weather stops at the border. This is some ridiculous shit.
- Comment on Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt 4 weeks ago:
I guess if Hitler was allowed to design a car, Musk didn’t want to be left behind.
- Comment on Steam Deck sales drop hard following the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement 5 weeks ago:
I figured anyone that wanted one would’ve bought it by now.

Wouldn’t surprise me.

Yeah, I had no idea. That’s a real shame.
- Comment on Biden warns of ultra-wealthy 'oligarchy' threatening US democracy in farewell address to the nation 1 month ago:
He’s only got a couple of years left, he could just live off an advance on a memoir if he was broke (which he isn’t).
- Comment on Biden warns of ultra-wealthy 'oligarchy' threatening US democracy in farewell address to the nation 1 month ago:
Yep go Luigi on all those CEOs with that immunity.
