That the main result of giving kids laptops was that it prepared them to be better consumers of Facebook? Lots of people called that early on.

New phones are several hundred dollars, and offer very little improvements over models a few years old. With inflation and every other cost of living rising, wages stagnating, unemployment rising, people are making choices. And more often than not, the choice is to pay food and rent instead of a shiny new phone that doesn't do anything new.

It most certainly did. The summary even discusses it.

When your party's leader is against putting the word in your party's title, and when he executes party higher-ups who consider themselves socialist, it's fair to say "no true scotsman" doesn't come into it.

Jesus, would it kill you to read even a Wikipedia summary of what the Nazis were and did? Or are you too afraid about what you might find out?

No, they didn't, but they weren't socialist either.

The original party was a diverse coalition of shitty people, some of whom considered themselves socialists because socialism isn't, outside of the Americas, considered a "bad word", especially in a Europe that was having trouble adjusting to a world war and unfettered capitalism during the industrial revolution. Workers rights are not a bad thing. It had, by that point, been watered down to practically a feel good term, the way "Freedom" is in the US.

Anywho, the socialists within the party pushed to have "Socialist" put in the name. Hitler opposed this. He was out numbered.

Then during the Night of the Long Knives, Hitler had the entire self-described socialist wing of his party purged. Its leaders were executed.

TL;DR - the party wasn't a socialist party, it had that in the name for historical reasons, Hitler hated it but by the time the party rose to power it was too late to do anything about it. But he did do something about the socialists in his party, and it wasn't pretty.

A decent amount. Here's a pull request for the dotnet library where they were having copilot do work.

It did not go well. The comments are gold.

MacOS has its own barriers to calling itself a professional operating system. A good part of my job is forcing it to conform to basic enterprise system management practices.

Calling them names and leveling false accusations at them is kind of the exact opposite of ignoring them in peace. Unless that's what brings you peace, in which case you're the mentally ill fuckup in that equation.

Demanding that people who are different from you to explain themselves to your satisfaction before you're willing to leave them the hell alone is peak conservative asshole.

I can manufacture outrageous events from my imagination and then extrapolate that fiction into a nation-wide systemic problem too!

You're just starting to acknowledge the possibility?

That's a whole lot of extra words, instead of just saying that you're a fucking moron who doesn't understand science.

Longer than most think.

Equating AI with Pac-Man isn't really the intellectual flex you probably think it is.
