There's no 'D' IN 'AI' and no 'S' in 'MCP'. I take it to mean no one is designing AI and MCP isn't secure.

I experience similar and I think of discomfort tolerance like a muscle. The more I (am forced to) use it, the less strain I experience when using it. I am naturally prone to optimizing friction away--autistic engineer--but have come to real

I get so many chores done during sprint ceremonies, including standup. Every session is a continuation of the same horribly inefficient planning/refinement/status update combo which doesn't effectively accomplish any of those

That's your case for demonstrating you're _not_ condescending? I'd expect with that superior intellect you'd be able to connect the dots.

My mistake.

I disagree with every single thing you said. I think GP was arguing for exactly what I asserted, and it's a literal fantasy to imagine doing something 20 years ago. I'd like to point out I wasn't being dismissive, at all. S

I'm reading your comment as "someone should have done something a long time ago so it's not worth considering the consequences of doing it now." That fantasy doesn't seem to take into account the specific realities

I have a personal conspiracy theory it's specifically because these things anger people. Once everyone is riled up, the less scrupulous among those seeking power can claim without any challenge whatsoever from the media they are the on

I'm trying very hard not to be judgemental, but this comment fascinated (or horrified) me. I grew up with some relatively minor food insecurity, and so outsourcing my food and beverage choice to a soulless machine sounds like my own pe

I'm interpreting your statement about "only now" as an implication that there was no dissent about corrupt government officials prior to Musk purchasing the country. Is that actually what you intended to say?

Why would people continue to use hackernews as opposed to reddit?

I don't have statistics but judging by advertising I'm exposed to, I'd wager a substantial portion of Americans buy their phones on credit too.

I fundamentally disagree honey is/was fraudulent. They compiled and distributed coupon codes. The core funtionality exists. It just sucked -- I guess anyway, I was too suspicious and lazy to ever use it myself.

I do agree that's shady, but there's a good chance at least some of those shoppers wouldn't have converted because they thought to themselves "I'll wait to make sure I can get the best deal" whereas someone wit

Judging by the condescension oozing from that last statement, it seems you're disinterested in a good faith engagement. That statement is emotionally charged and factually incorrect, multiple times over. I assume the rest of your reply

What about it is (or should be) illegal? They're playing by the exact same rules as every affiliate marketer in existence. I have a dozen or so rhetorical questions I'm not going to bother with, because I doubt there's any pr

There's a very reasonable argument to be made a number of shopers wouldn't convert if they didn't feel like they were getting a "deal." So honey is undeniably aiding in the sale. It's not "literally doing

I think maybe you were using 'deviant' in a tongue and cheek way, but I think the way kids are naturally inclined to limit test and push boundaries in service of learning more about the world is among the most beautiful things in

Which is likely why it's clearly introduced as an anecdote and not a fact.
172.
by jahsome 2y ago
The anecdote is both relevant and interesting, even if a little dated. I think it's kinda bizarre to accuse someone of not "researching" their own recollections. How would one accomplish that?

Case in point.

Mindless polarization is the issue, and it goes both ways. Believing one side (and/or the supporters of that side) is the problem, _is_ the problem.

Thanks that did it. But I wish it didn't. This thread is so ironic it's making me physically uncomfortable.

Is there some way to read X threads without an account?

I think OPs point is that it's impossible to avoid foreign (to the US) influence. You're probably closer to agreeing than you are disagreeing. Foreign or not is binary. There's no comparison because everything boils down to a

Am I supposed to interpret this as surprising or even scandalous? What's next, are you going to tell me they have a PR department?

The web was explicitly designed with no design. That's like, the whole point man. If you don't like it, there are literally billions of other pages for you to check out and even in this case, a convenient button for you to click t

Fine, but why don't they care anymore? I watch an embarrassing amount of YouTube and it was virtually all I heard about for 72 hours and then any mention at all vanished.
