No, not self-correcting at all. It's become a society of mutual adoration where people trade endorsements for favours, without proper review.

... I can solve a Rubik's cube in under 25 seconds?

Having so many people in adult academia is not a good thing. It creates a pressure to produce results and promotes bad science and unreliable, or even fake, research.

Everyone would if they could. Why on Earth would you willingly pay more tax in country X if you could legally pay less tax elsewhere? It may be controversial but is perfectly legal, and corporations have no soul to have this sort of moral dilemmas.

I'm sure they'll be doing it for at least the next decade.

Dude... really? That's exactly what you were trying to do with your followers before you were caught red-handed.

You're in favour until 50 years into the future it becomes the only way to drive, and the robotaxi cartel charge you a fortune every time you want to go somewhere.

How is it that when people want to drive they need to pass a test, but robotaxis don't?

Someone should build a complex robotaxi-specific driving test field. Then, every time a new version of driving software is released, it should be tested and recertified before being allowed on the roads.

It feels like software engineering with AI could be described with similar numbers.

No, I don't want comparable. I want the real deal.

Stop trying to fix something that isn't a problem. Energy usage while making coffee has never been significant in the grand scheme of things.

If only they paid in Drachmas, like in Zeus: Master of Olympus...

A share of what? A share of nothing is still nothing.

Arch is not going anywhere, mate.

Thanks. I just made a similar point below.

If you don't know how to review a PKGBUILD file, then perhaps AUR is not for you.
