I love this. No matter what we do and how far we push the limits of humanity, we still have to shit.

Just a bit of casual racism and misandry here. Raising because I’m sick of purple getting away with this now why don’t you check yourself.

A waste of money to explore the cosmos? It’s our duty is it not? What exactly are you doing about kids starving?

Oh does llama.cpp use MLX or whatever? I had this question, wonder if you know? A search suggests it doesn’t but I don’t really understand.

I have a strange feeling you’ve confused me for a cat person since you keep doing a comparison with cats? To me, cats are worse, and you’re right. Dogs shit in the street, cats shit all over your garden. I’ve seen dogs chase after and rag a

I will never understand the accommodations people make for pets that leave mountains of turd all over the streets for other people to walk in. Slobbering beasts that bark, kill wildlife and make your house smell like a wet towel. Eating a

You’re kind of talking to a straw man here. I didn’t read anything against the use of AI, just that they’d rather not spend time reviewing AI code. This is reasonable not to want to spend time reviewing something the author hasn’t spent tha

You had to change the end because following it through actually made total sense. You kinda pulled a trick, no doubt to convince yourself if I’m being fair to you.

Also I thought plastic was bad. We seem to just be producing new pointless bits of plastic crap here?

“Hate”? I think you might be over blowing the word, I’m sorry you feel that way. I think you might have a bit of a negative view and tend to think people are against you when they’re not. To me I see this as all related, it’s all playing in

Where are you getting this impression?

You mean they’re not used to sell me cheap Chinese USB-C cables?

Where’s the line for you? Would you upload a picture of you sat on the toilet for example?

I find it really weird too, like, haven’t we done this? Also struggle to understand the motivation for arguing from this direction. Do people forget it’s the normal, default position NOT to be spied on?

A new kind of war where people won’t be able to get next day delivery on the 5m USB-C cable that they ordered.

Wow thanks for posting this. Stole the show for me.

Right! I’ve come into the comments and thought I’d lost my mind. I’ve scrolled down almost the whole page to find your comment!

Im sure whatever’s happening isn’t intended but I did experience jankyness when trying to use the back button on Safari on iOS. It wouldn’t let me go back.

Yeh I couldn’t tell if they were being ironic. I don’t know Axios. Stopped reading anyway.

Because it’s the guardian I assumed she was British and therefore making meat pies, gave me a different vibe for some reason.

Or just even think or look out of the window I feel like would do the world some good. Maybe I’m being negative I really don’t know at this point.

Oh that’s weird, I didn’t notice.

> so we can spend our resources more efficiently (on other fashion-driven junk in different market segments), making us richer. Richer… so we can buy more stuff I guess? Anyway a good microwave can last you 30 years not even joking.

Well ticketmaster (for example) is used by millions of people. It seems to me like spinning up millions of LLMs to produce a million different apps is way more wasteful than having a dozen developers produce one efficient app that everyone

Aren’t we kinda realising that disposable/throwaway stuff is, like, bad? Why do we have to go down this wasteful and hyper-consumptive route AGAIN. Can we try and see the patterns here and move forwards?

Yeh. I mean I ultimately completely agree with your last paragraph. Society seems to have shifted and no amount of lasers and drugs is able to make people move! Also to your point moving actually takes up a lot of space and, thus, less tick

Just regarding the drugs: I can totally understand when people are anti-drugs. I’d say it still depends on someone’s personality though. I’ve always thought that drugs and alcohol don’t really change your personality they just amplify it. I

Eh? I mean, this sounds potentially interesting but I don’t understand it!

Taking pictures of, let’s face it, mostly plants is pretty low impact compared to other things that are much more widely accepted. For example having a cat. Let’s maybe stop keeping apex predators as pets that decimate the local ecosystem f

Yeh, to zoom out a bit, this is a pattern with all products. It’s all a scam. The only thing you should ever pay for is build quality (you should buy something once, that you can hand down to your kids) and staff wages (something that is ma
