While I agree with you that a lot of the damage we did wasn't the virus, I feel like OP was quite clear in saying if there's only bad and worse, pick bad. Which logically I agree with, although I still think that post CDC study on

While I agree with your grammar rules parsing, the ambiguity is semantically resolved if you know that antibiotics can't be killed, while bugs can.

Honestly it's much more likely anyway, the AI hype will die down a little again soon, leading to a more realistic view of AI being a better personal assistant now.

>"AI works like our brains" (which I disagree with) While AI works like our brains is patently false it might just be analogous enough to not matter in the end if the details are the same to get similar emergent behavior.

But you see the chicken and egg problem here. News outlets have deteriorated because they can't make money. If people actually paid for them they might have a chance to hire competent people and do investigative journalism. But now the

And I think we should get rid of the pop-ups. Let the service do what it does with least permissions. If something doesn't work there should be a settings where you opt-in. Don't block my view, hoping I will click the dark patter

I'd say VSCode is a bit different in who it's aimed at. Only because it doesn't work for a consumer product doesn't mean this wouldn't work for VSCode. Also it might be good to be more specific. E.g. don't ask

It would be good if VSCode asked you which permissions a plugin should have. E.g. a lot of plugins shouldn't be talking to the internet, writing to disk or similar in the first place. And if they do you should be able to whitelist what

I mean technically you don't need any meat. There are plenty vegetarians doing just fine. But in any case I would always prefer something natural. I.e. not fake meat and not lab grown meat.
