I think I've hit my professional expiration date when it comes to CompSci, guys. I can't stand any of the new tech I'm seeing come down the pike, and the things I care about are being shoved aside in the name of speed and "productivity".
We're losing our humanity, one AI integration at a time.

I just read that health insurance company stocks are down now the ACA subsidies aren't renewed.
Knowing these fuckers I'm now absolutely sure that people are buying those stocks low (probably have already done) and when the subsidies get reestablished they'll make a tidy profit on the rebound.

I know the GOP is playing it close to the vest with regard to what they're replacing the ACA with, but where do I sign up on the betting pool for the "nothing" option?

Fascists didn't create a new "we're fascists!" party, they corrupted the GOP over time (and not that much time) until the GOP BECAME the fascist party.
Now we have to turn the Democratic party into the "fuck the fascists!" party. It'll take time, but not that much time. In fact we've already begun.

I didn't get a picture of the best sign I saw today, but I remember what it said:
Somewhere in America
A little Hispanic girl
Is hiding in an attic
And keeping a diary.

Trump is CHATGPT in human form.
He can be convinced to agree with anything.
He lives in a world entirely defined by the quality of the inputs he's given.
He is untethered to any objective reality.
Everything he says must be understood to have a high chance of being wrong.

ZOMFG it will be so satisfying to watch Drumpf asslicker Bryson DeChambeau be the one to give up the deciding, losing point at the Ryder Cup, especially since he's getting his ass absolutely HANDED to him.

Is it just YouTube TV maybe or is everyone else getting an extremely washed out picture of the all star game on Fox? It's like the brightness is turned all the way up on the TV or something (it is not)...

"I asked chatGPT" yeah well I asked Three Dog Night and they said "Aoooooooooo, ooooooooooo, ooooooooooo, oooooooo oo oo oooooooooo, hey yay yeah yeah yeah."
"I asked chatgpt" yeah well I asked 4 non blondes and they said "hey, hey, hey what's going on?
"I asked chatgpt"; yeah, well I asked my mother, and she said "Que será, será, whatever will be, will be. The future's not ours to see."
And then she repeated herself in case I didn't get it the first time.
