Show me this software that you consider usable enough to replace more than about 5% of what a software engineer does.
AI doesn't need to replace a software engineer, heck I doubt Meta employs 7,000 software engineers. The only thing AI has to replace are the people who thought, "5ft3 and an attitude, or Gen-z boss and mini" were good ideas. That's what AI could replace and almost certainly show an improvement.

Can a single republican take responsinility for his actions or is it a prerequisite for their lot to always portray themselves as innocent victims or democrat persecution and their evil deep state conspiracies and machiavelian plots to discredit and jail them ? Men take responsibility for their acts , republicans ? i never seen a single honest one, They're ridiculous .
You believe SBF is a republican? That seems a reasonable conclusion to reach based on all the money he gave to Democrat politicians. Perhaps you drew that conclusion based on his parent's careers, let's see... oh two academics from the Bay Area, yep totally a hot bed of Republican politics. You really sussed that one out.
I am so blessed , neither living in the USA nor being American. Canada is now the best nation and place to live in the Americas, We won.
Never mind, no helping your delusions.

All too stupid to see that *their* taxes will go down. But I suppose all of you think you're billionaires with a temporary cash-flow problem.
Yeah, that's a reasonable assumption to make given how long after the conflict the Spanish American War taxcontinued to be collected. Or not. Plus the dirty little secret is that thanks to Obama care congresses power to tax is virtually limitless(poll taxes notwithstanding). Which means that taxes are a flexible way to compel behavior that otherwise would run afoul of the bill of rights. So no, taxes will not go down, and no they are not going to get simpler b/c that defeats the purpose which is not to fund govt, but to compel behavior.

All you have to do is look what happens when an entertainment giant like Disney gets hold of a franchise. They run it into the ground. Some franchises ruined by corporate greed (not all Disney): Star Trek, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Mulan, Pirates of the Caribbean, the MCU...probably a lot more if I googled around a bit.
To be fair, Pirates was based on a fucking Disney ride, so there wasn't much "there" to be ruined. Wouldn't call Mulan a franchise either(of course live action remakes are just lazy). Now Star Wars, MCU and Indiana Jones were absolutely ruined by the let's replace popular male characters with female versions, and do precisely zero work in making said characters compelling, and then call our critics sexist and racist when they point out the shoddy work. Star Trek's problem is simply the people who were running Star Trek did not care about canon or what had gone before(there are entire cottage industries on youtube explaining this). And to the cretins who will insist that Star Trek is woke, I will again point out "The Savage Curtain" season 3 episode 22, Abraham Lincoln uses an archaic term to describe Uhura, and instead of a 20 minute diatribe on how words are violence and he is a terrible person, she merely points out the word has no power over her(which is the exact opposite of today's "woke").

This. Not to mention that Beyond_GoodandEvil is comparing apples to oranges. Citizens United addressed a concern about corporations using their substantial financial resources to influence elections. Whereas Anthropic wants to defend their right to set the parameters of how their product is used -- specifically, no autonomous weapons and no domestic civilian surveillance.
Hmm, good point, except I totally pointed this fact out in the later part of said comment(you apparently missed, so once more with feeling). Of course, those people fail to see the consumer protection portion of this, if Anthropic can specify how the US govt can use the AI services it paid for, it's only a matter of time before, you will own nothing and everything will be rented from some big corporation.

Just cave to the DoD when you think you've been wronged by them? Don't go to the courts? Stop and think about what you just wrote. And consider how un-American it is to just let the government have its way with you.
Yep, this is ultimately a contract dispute. What is truly amazing is, the very same people who got all twisted when Citizen's United came out and "corporations are people too" are now on the side of big business. It's truly remarkable. Of course, those people fail to see the consumer protection portion of this, if Anthropic can specify how the US govt can use the AI services it paid for, it's only a matter of time before, you will own nothing and everything will be rented from some big corporation.

Funny that your subject line is a modification of the Star Trek catchphrase... which was well-known for having an extremely diverse crew, especially for the time when it was made. I love it when people think Star Trek wasn't what today would be called woke.
So we've got two things going on here not sure which one it is, either this is the classic, 90% of conversations w/ leftists is them pretending to misunderstand common phrases making dialog impossible or just another person ignorant of what classic trek was like and did. So assuming(dangerous, I know) it is not the first scenario(which would make the rest of this reply pointless), in season 3 episode 22, "The Savage Curtain", space Abraham Lincoln uses an archaic term to describe Uhura, and then apologizes immediately afterwards, to which Uhura replies it is merely a word and they've(humanity) moved beyond it. How could any rational being believe that the sentiment I've just described could be attributed to the modern thought police: words are violence, silence is violence, failure to respect my pronouns is violence aka "woke" is truly baffling.

The Democrats could run Jesus fucking Christ and it wouldn't do any good if the Republicans just stop 17 million people from voting.
One point of contention, I don't want people voting, I want citizens voting, and there is a distinction. I'd prefer they were alive as well, but no need to totally destroy the Democrat party all at once.

Ah, the enlightened centrist. You can't name one "forceful" Biden era piece of legislation.
Says the guy posting as anon coward. But anyways, assuming you are not a troll and just a person with the memory of a goldfish, I'll start with the COVID19 restrictions under Biden(where BLM protests were ok, and Hollywood films could be shot, but no going to Church or any other large gatherings, gyms had to be closed). We will then move onto the power grab that was simply forgiving everyone's college debt. And for even more unity I'll present Biden's sith lord speech from Sep 1st 2022. But maybe you aren't a dog faced pony soldier, I can't be sure.

He has killed thousands of Iranians, cost the global economy trillions of dollars, cost the taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars, ruined the US's reputation as a dependable and reliable partner, and effectively made the rule of law meaningless... but the exact same regime that does horrible things to Iranians is still in power so... winning?
I do love watching Democrats who spent years w/ their "Slava Ukraini" and blockbuster pins, wanting to ship pallets of cash to Ukraine, start to notice that wars are expensive. It is truly hilarious. Almost as funny as watching the Anti-war left completely disappear once Obama took office. Also, I missed your moral outrage when the Iranian regime killed thousands of Iranians, but maybe I just didn't look at /. that day. As for dependable and reliable partner, you misspelled carry the load completely. After all, going to war without the French, is like going hunting w/out an accordion.

This supercharged the crisis of 2007-2008. not sure there was many articles written about it, but the patterns are the same.
No, that was supercharged by the easy credit loans, and then the subsequent bundling of said loans into CDOs that could be sliced and sold off as low risk despite the loans inside said CDOs being sub prime, and some of those loans were interest only such that the second the rates started to rise, the risk of default exploded. Same kind of imaginary thinking that goes on in the crypto world, "the line must keep going up."

Workers must unionize. There can be no middle-class thriving without unionization, worker-owned cooperatives, and much greater corporate income taxation.
Yep, the UAW really did a good job keeping GM running well. Or perhaps we should form a group of union bosses to help make sure everything runs well, what shall we call it? A central committee? perhaps Supreme Soviet? That will solve all the problems.

It gets even worse. People are literally watching videos on their phone in stalls at my office. Regularly. I don't want to be hearing your pundit's analysis of last night's sportsball game while relieving my bladder or bowels. And the worst part is, I've heard multiple different feeds at the same time, so it's not just one bad apple.
Brother, I don't know how to tell you this w/out hurting your feelings, but they are playing that content to drown out the sound of your colon and bladder while they are in their stalls. Hope this helps, and you should probably get a colonoscopy soon.

I'm not OP but myself, being a fan of liberalism and American values (unlike the conservatives today) know you couldn't or shouldn't criminalize viewpoints or political affiliation. However there is nothing stopping the rest of us from making being or associating with conservatives so socially repugnant that they should hide themselves in shame, disengage from having strong political opinions (because it's obvious they are incapable of understanding American institutions, law and values) so as to make conservatism politically irrelevant for the next 2 decades until they root out the rot they have allowed to take over their movement and come back to the table with sane people and sane policy.
Why do you believe that would or should happen? After the failure of the Soviet experiment, there are still communist parties a plenty around the world. Heck, look at the Democrat policies toward immigration in 2016 vs today. There's no sanity to be found. So shine on you crazy diamond.

Blame Hunter Biden's laptop.
I have a letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials, that Hunter Biden's laptop isn't real, and therefore blameless. No doubt some of those signers would also claim that this story is also false and, we have nothing to fear from China.
