I made the mistake of giving an honest review for my teammates once. They apparently were given the results one way or another and have hated me ever since. Never again.

Deception is key to profitable ads and news as well. We just keep diving deeper into the murk and find ourselves more and more confused about what's going on around us, who and what to trust. It's sad and technology has continued

I think it's going to parallel the virus/anti-virus eternal struggle. The bad AI will need to be targeted by the good. It'll be a mess, of course.

I know precious little about how DNS / certs work, yet it took me only an hour or two to install gitlab on some random cloudserver with a valid certificate. It's sort of a joke how easy it is now.

It's rare to have a meaningful algorithm where memory is the absolute only bottleneck. Not much else aside from memcpy and even that can see a benefit from SIMD tuning on many systems. Especially since high performance software is glad

It isn't so weird when you remember that is how evolution works with biological creatures as well. If we all got together and tried to agree on the next singular mutation to our DNA, the whole thing just wouldn't work.

Do you suggest that the untold billions of both animated and static GIFs should be lossily transcoded to mp4 (which presumably also has a limited shelf life?) so that we can finally remove GIF support from web browsers because [reason here]

Tyranny of the many has dangers just as does tyranny of the few. There can be significant downsides to unions, so it's a bit reductive to think they're a universal good and that to disagree with them in any case is necessarily abo

Although it can also be a strategic advantage to be underestimated. Love my Midwest life and it is an odd comfort when big city elites denigrate the "flyover" states. It's fully fine with me if they stay right where they are.
