If by "will go back" you mean "will be deported". If they're even allowed to stay long enough to graduate...

Make it an Xbox game -- try to import things while avoiding / minimizing tariffs.
(Ironically, there will probably be a tariff on the game.)

They don't need AI for that. Teams - and pretty much all Microsoft products - are honeypots designed to collect data.

Well, no so much "honeypots" in the case of products that employees are forced to use at their workplace: they're no honey needed to attract them and get them to give Microsoft data. If you disagree with Microsoft's privacy invasion, you lose your job.

That's the genius of Microsoft's particular brand of invasiveness: instead of convincing individual people their products are good enough to relinquish their privacy for (Facebook), or convincing a large part of the internet to let them sneak in their trackers (Google), Microsoft convinced the bean counters at most companies to install their spyware and ram it down the throats of people who need to make a living. Disgusting...

Anyway, the AI thing is just the turd on top of the shit cake.

What's the long-term game-plan for "smart" / connected appliances? My Whirlpool refrigerator was left by the previous owner when I bought my house in 1993, so it's at least 32 years old, and we got our Kenmore washer and dryer in 1993. All three still run great. On a related note, my 2001 Civic and 2002 CR-V are still running well. Thankfully, none of my appliances/cars have this crap. Are companies planning on supporting these "smart" / connected features and touch screens for 30+ years? History so far says nope.

Ban on tobacco products.

Yeah, let's make cigarettes cool again!

What's gonna stop obesity among Americans isn't permanent standard time. It really, REALLY isn't that.

A good start would be making healthy food that isn't 1,000,000 calories per pound, and not made of fat and sugar mixed in unknown chemicals affordable. And taxing the living shit out of junk food. And getting people to stop eating supertanker-sized servings.

Yup, 'cause the Taliban is known for giving up easily and being lenient to people breaking morality decrees. /s

I think that after every 3rd wave of Missile Command (what a disgustingly irresponsible creation!!), the game should require that the player's parents check to make sure the player isn't getting depressed by the prospect of nuclear war.

And in Asteroids, after any ship destruction due to collision with an asteroid, the game should require parental attestation that the player isn't starting to develop symptoms of petraphobia.

In both cases, if the parents aren't available (e.g. dead because the player is in their 80s) I suppose a Notary Public or a AMA-certified doctor would be a good-enough replacement.

We have learned so much since the early days of computer games, and it's better to be safe than sorry. (But don't fuck with Joust! I want to be able to play without having to call my mom every time the Lava Troll touches my mount's legs inappropriately.)

Typical AI shill answer (and the word "agentic" in the sentence is a dead giveaway too).

Wrong logic: a person's job should be gone if your "agentic" thing does the job cheaper AND at least as well.

As always, AI shills conveniently forget to factor in the quality of the work produced.

The reality of AI is, while it might be cheaper than real workers, it also enshittifies the entire world. And that's a fact.

Does it work without a Facebook account and 24/7 creepy corporate surveillance?

Oh...

So, just close your eyes and think of Erlang -- or something like that? :-)

Fast, good, cheap - pick two.

Or, hire another programmer.

And... Trump gets editorial control and preferred feed placement, Pam Bondi gets warrant-less access to all user data, Stephen Miller gets control of (shadow) banning people and Karoline Leavitt is in charge of "fact checking" ... And JD? Nothing, no one likes him. :-)
