Or I can fight to rezone that land because a single pass of zoning, shockingly, isn’t fucking permanent. Y’all do vaguely understand how government works, right? Planning and zoning is a core function. This is hardly rocket science, except,

I think you should post substantively about the actual fucking article, instead of musing about nonsense, but here we are. Call me more names, though, bro. That’ll beat the AI allegations.

I read some of it as interesting "quick fails" - Apple's BNPL, for instance - I see why they would have tried, and it's interesting that they pivoted relatively quickly out of it. Some of the text is silly sour grapes, b

Do you think data centers and the average satellite generate an equivalent amount of heat?

Weird comment on an article where that literally isn’t the case. I can’t tell if it’s just bot-driven nonsense, not reading the text, or just dishonesty masquerading as commentary.

I genuinely care about my friend. He's really into bee-keeping. I don't care at all about bees. But he cares about it, so I ask questions because I care about him . I have now learned enough about his bee-keeping to be legitima

Giving someone, as in this thread, a genuine compliment that you mean sincerely isn't "flowery small talk" and it's sort of depressing that you think that it is. No one in this thread is talking about your example except

So tired of this "reacting to a dude who built a CSAM generator is the real cringe" horseshit from people who know exactly what they're covering for.

“Hacking is letting Zuck or Musk or Nadella build shit in your backyard actually” is a fucking lame argument to make, and it’s only worse because of the misuse of the tween-on-Reddit “bootlicking” meme.

Equating this shit with a NIMBY argument is unequivocally dishonest. I don’t want any more shitty AI data centers anywhere . Sorry that that negatively impacts your totally awesome start-up.
