It's kind of great actually, it makes it easier for my CEO to generate code and tell me to integrate it into our product. AI in Slack si the feature I've been waiting for all my career.

With the fact that arrests have dropped from 44,000 per year to about 11,000 per year because so many federal law enforcement agents have been taken off other beats and put on immigration enforcement....

Seriously look it up. If we had a functional media it would be much bigger news. Most of the Democrats sucks so hard in messaging...

Yes. And I said and delineated as such:

The one trying to carry their emotional support iguana into the testing facility claiming permanent victim status on behalf of the suffering their Great-Great-Great-Great ancestors surely had sometime in the somehow-relevant and fully blame-worthy 19th Century that naturally affects testing anxiety today bad enough that they have also two 15-minute cry closet breaks approved by the positive wellness counselor, is more the self-diagnosed I was referring to.

What if, and I'm just spitballing here, the news media barely covered this and certainly didn't cover the corruption angle at all because the news media is now completely owned by billionaires like something like literally 90% of the news media is owned by billionaires.

So almost nobody hears about this and then the news cycle eats the attention of anyone who does and we all just move on and forget about it. Does that work for you?

In project 2025 they call it shock and awe. Everything is a distraction from the previous terrible thing Trump did and everything Trump does next is a distraction from whatever he's doing at the time. Meanwhile the economy is continuously collapsing due to mismanagement so you're too busy trying to keep your head above water to care about anything else.

Then you mix in a little voter suppression and the fact that a billionaire Trump sycophant just bought the company that controls all of our voting machines and maybe do a few hundred billion dollars of propaganda right before the election and Bob's your uncle Trump gets a third term or at least JD Vance gets his term.

Then we had 25% unemployment, world war III takes off and goes nuclear and we Fermi paradox ourselves. I don't think the billionaires are planning on that last one but I don't think they are thinking any of this through either. They're just too busy trying to set themselves up as feudal Kings.

Well, I am still on fvwm and I have been for the last 30 years. I see not need to go to any other desktop as it works perfectly well and is customized to exactly hat I want. There are tons of other good and sane window-managers out there.

KDE? Gnome? I could not care less. This is not Windows, where you can be forced to use a specific broken desktop.

Tested and verified would be where we start with fine tuning. Yours would be a respected and recognized definition of disability. There is a considerable difference between a trained service dog, and an “emotional support animal”. Starts with who actually qualifies for the former.

If people would like to get their “disability” tested and verified with more than an echo chamber and paid for personally, then the results will speak for who should be recognized vs. who should be questioned instead of coddled.

A society does not grow well or benefit from the problem of grown-ass children. If policy feeds that problem, question the policy. Not the child defending it.

These fines turn into the cost of doing business if you’re allowed to simply pay those instead of any actual punishment. Forever.

This is conservative/right wing agitprop clickbait bullshit of the absolute lowest quality.

no, social media is not creating debt laden people low wages and monopolies raising prices is.

Fuck what a particularly nasty piece of clickbait. But you got me I clicked it and I commented so you win I guess.

When the species of super intelligent raccoons or beavers take over from us after we drive ourselves to Extinction through sheer stupidity I wonder what they will think of this crap.

It's very clear that you didn't read the article, don't understand the arguments involved, but SOMEHOW feel entitled to spout your opinion.

Why?? Why not just read the article and become smarter? You don't need to show your ignorance off to the world, you can easily read the article, become non-ignorant and say something informed.

People who complain about the US dollar and oil are people who've never taken an economics class.

If you're too lazy to learn economics, then do a simple search to find out the world's oil production compared to the number of dollars in the world, and that should give you an idea of how much influence it actually has.

That thing is a partially built wreck that cannot compete with X11 on possibilities.

It is called "sane and solid engineering" and "not falling for any mindless hype". I guess you lack experience with both of these.

There are a number of problems with LLM-type AI being rushed in this fast. It can take jobs where the occasional massive screw-up does not matter much. Callcenters are probably one of those. The second one is that there are still not enough real applications that would generate profit and the number of failures is rising, while the number of successes is not. Hence this thing has gotten way too large and basically must collapse and the only question is when. Also, many are in denial and think they have a success, when really, they have a failure.

This could, for example, lead to a scenario where a lot of the workforce gets replaced (10% would be a lot) and then LLMs go away or become massively more expensive because the flood of investor money has run dry. Another one is LLMs finally find enough useful use-cases to justify the expenses of running and maintaining them, but the mistakes they make eliminate all profits by expensive lawsuits being won. And some more like that.

 

If the question mark at the end of a statement is intended to reveal an effeminate degree of indecision, it's doing its job.
