Funding the government, which has the goal to create a more just society, means taxes should support that. If you're not using your funding to support your goals, thats corruption.

Agreed. Humans evolved in a tribal, local community leadership system. To have as much wealth as millions of people that you never interact with should not exist as a person. It is against the system principles of humanity; either create a

This is IMO the only legitimate use case of a montana-LLC vehicle registration. The corporate veil acts as a privacy protection mechanism from government outreach. IMO we hear a lot of Straw Mans of "Tax evasion!!" here yet the le

I like paying $100/month to be monitored by the f3ds to Claude or Open(Closed)AI, or in some cases Max Premium subscriptions of $200/month. But oh don't worry, since they are selling the tokens at a loss, this data sale doesn

So where are all these rich bunkers and storage caches again? Isn't there like a map of these things, to help them preserve their thousands of lbs of food for their future generations of course. No need to have backup feed for the star

You cannot state a contrary opinion like that here without kicking off the tribalism mentality. Yes, hacker news internet nerds have that. You can observe it in the wild above by the incessant down votes.

Does the government not have the goal to make society a more just society? When did that stop being a priority of government? Even a teeny, tiny one?

Kind of reminds me how Google starting putting on automatic AI processing of YouTube videos and shorts around the time of AI generated video and images. Their processing gave the videos artifacts that made them look more AI generated, makin

I think you should look at your tone, have a neutral party look at the assumptions, logical fallacies, and general bad faith you demonstrate. I can't see how we can continue when I am assuming good faith, and you are assuming bad faith

hi runtime, thank you for attempting to engage in good faith. when I said I don't blindly follow authority or blindly call "science" as a credibility shield, I think you demonstrated bad faith of my argument by saying: > Y

Just to be clear, are you calling me a Maniac without actually knowing me or what I've done or my experience? and throwing off the word "conspiracy" theory and attempting to simply shut down my voice. Thanks for demonstrating

One related problem I see, is the avoidance of accountability and responsibility thats prevalent. When people use AI words and don't check they actually match their intent or voice, and then if something was incorrect or didn't st

hmm so have we not figured out a way to certify human generated content from AI generated content yet?

It came off to me as Ad Hominem, making it very difficult for me to engage you.

Yup. My experience was this. Many professionals I knew were censored, one of the biggest was an old family friends' mentor who ultimately lost his job in Virginia. He became a big name and ultimately, sued the FDA and won money though

by mannanj 5mo ago
I see. So you employ the Ad Hominem style fallacies to attack my credibility. No thank you. Unlike you, I listen with an open mind and curiosity. It's led me to an obsession in my health practices as a nearly full-time job for about 10

I've noticed something of a hybrid of what you posted and what one of your responders below posted. For average results, that can have an acceptable answer that tends to the mean or societal mainstream views along some subject, the goo

Is this not a Straw Man, as I'm hearing you say "they do the bare minimum in terms of content moderation and bots" whereas if as the title of the article claims, meta is instead "blocks human rights accounts from reachin

Would have been great to hear that his inability to do the interview memorization bullshit as a senior was why he didn't get hired somewhere like OpenAI. lol. Except the good companies probably dont make you do silly stupid outdated in

Why would a corporate company actually demonstrate responsibility and ethicality in its use of the open source commons from which it extracts every last penny and dollar? Edit: a more suitable strategy is to do the minimal necessary actions

Thank you for sharing your story. I also experienced something similar having to kill mice we caught on glue trips before I knew of how painful they can be for the mice. I heard being scared about yourself and realizing the potential you ha

Maybe I would have done well to define "basic". If I can do well beyond the requirements of the work position, and the issue is how they are testing my fit is not an accurate representation of the work and tools and environment I&

Right, so I wonder, have you noticed or found or experienced any better interview processes? I wonder how we can't just filter out companies that require us to do this sort of hand waving and party tricking behavior or like "becau

Not true. I can clearly program, have been programming and remembered syntax for about 10 years, and during that 10 years saw the rise and application of tools like IDE and AI improving and accelerating the experience. As I have been using

Can you say, what happened the last time we had major technological revolutions of the sort of AI? And I say "like" because it's the closest observed approximation we have to describe what could be happening now. I think we s

That's nice. Do you have a go to for conversations with less mindful people or people without a training in meditation/mindfulness? For example, for people who have no experience and yet speak from a frame of strong identity and i

Same here. I might want to use this. Would be interesting to AI build a way to see how phrases and ways of speaking like this spread, and track where the original idea could have originated and morphed and how networks spread like this.

I first did fizz buzz about 10 years ago fresh out of college. Now, after 10 years in full stack and fully vibe coding, I forgot basic python syntax. An interview like yours would have false positives if you are checking for syntax because
