- Comment on Companies That Tried to Save Money With AI Are Now Spending a Fortune Hiring People to Fix Its Mistakes 2 days ago:
This is what I fight against every goddamn day, and I get yelled at for fighting against it, but I’m not going to stop. I want to build shit that I can largely forget about (because, you know, it’s reliable and logically extensible and maintainable) after it gets to a mature state, and I’m not shy about making that known. This has led to more than a few significant conflicts over the course of my career. It has also led to me saying “I fucking told you so” more than a few times.

If there’s a real world screen showing a real world ad to you, you’ve got to be really careful not to lean against the screen with a broken spark plug or some other sort of ceramic shard, because you could easily shatter the screen and make it really hard for you and other people to be advertised to 👉👈🥺

- Comment on The Computer-Science Bubble Is Bursting 1 week ago:
I’ve been warning colleagues and leadership about this for a couple years now. It baffles me that people don’t understand they’re hollowing out the whole discipline of computer science and engineering, at large. The knock-on effects are going to be - and i know this sounds hyperbolic, but I stand by it - incalculable.
I guess I’ll just retire in a decade as an Elder Techpriest…? Who even knows at this point.

In this economy?
You’d have to leverage your hotdog assets and get a secondary hotdog line of credit based on the initial hotdog equity.

I don’t fucking care.
They’re gonna have the day they voted for. I am completely out of any fucking sympathy for idiots who vote against their own interests and well being. Entirely fucking done.

Yeah. You’re gonna want to at the very least test out living in an area like that for a month or two before you uproot your life.

We are not supposed to go home until the fucking vote is finished. When you sign up, it’s made clear that you work until it’s done.
- Comment on After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any? 2 weeks ago:
Nukes are actually extremely hard to set off. H-bombs even moreso. It requires extremely, extremely precise explosively-driven compression.
Gun-type firing mechanisms are simpler, but by no means “simple”.

Having worked the polls: if you are in line to vote, you get to vote. The cops do not have any grounds to order you to leave your polling location because it’s “too late”. That is a violation of your rights as a citizen. The correct response is “make me; and if you do, I’ll have your fucking job, officer”.

Get off your high horse. You did make a choice. You chose to not make a choice.
And with the way that electoral calculus and bias works in the US, not voting is disproportionately harmful to Democratic candidates, and disproportionately helpful to Republican candidates. You helped this happen by not voting.
