Leftist but doing it wrong. Here mostly to talk shit about technology and the people who use it.
One of the many things that bothers me about this is that none of these people have ever been the "architect" of anything valuable. These rent-seekers try to tell average people that this is what brilliant people are like. It's like society's being destroyed by an episode of Bones.

Trump needs to woo Mamdani because it's his best shot at coming back to New York.
He's exactly the kind of asshole that thinks you can only really be a big shot if you're in NY. He knows Florida sucks. He's basically Boss Hogg down there. Do you know how sweaty he is right now? It's November.

I feel an urge to explain that it's not my explicit goal to poop at the office, that's just where I always happen to be when I finish my coffee!

I'm not advocating anything, I just think it's an interesting thought experiment to consider the possible impacts of, once per year, finding the richest person in the world and executing them.

With the weird amount of ceremony around this thing I feel like @altspaceforce.altgov.info is missing an incredible opportunity to bestow an honorary commission on Charlie Kirk at the rank of Captain.

All these comparisons about Charlie Kirk and Hitler are really irresponsible because he was clearly Goebbels.

Really conflicted about watching these heartland farmers getting their faces eaten by shitty policies they supported because it feels like justice but also I don't know if being duped is immoral and also also I want farms to continue to be a thing.

When we think about the singularity and computers surpassing us to train the next round of computers, have we thought about what exactly we mean by "surpassing" us?

Oh shit, who's going to be in the room when he find out that there's a bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor?

Coinage is maybe the oldest, most adopted idea of implementing a standard.

@searchliaison.bsky.social When I share a link I think that you actually already know that I don't want to share 300 characters of gibberish encoding that link along with a bunch of tracking data.
So I guess my question then is: what the fuck, man?

The hardest part of trying to do a thing or be a good person or whatever might actually be just how many people who sound convincing are completely full of shit.

One of the *many* problems with doing coding interviews is that for any given problem, popping into an IDE and typing out code is like step 15 along the road to a good solution.
