I think words matter and it's important that we all agree on the meaning if we want to convey ideas. My approach may be pedantic - but it also saves me from wasting my time reading an article that my be full of idiosyncrasies. It'

Nobody talks about part 2 of the decriminalization which cannot happen in the US - which should be providing support for the addicts to recover.

The "make all drugs legal" was meant as a way of saying that we should not punish people that have an addiction. I was not advocating giving highly addictive hard drugs out without prescription.

Now consider states make it illegal to get birth control pills and retroactively go after anyone who has them prescribed. It's according to the law, ain't it? The states should keep their noses out of this and in effect all drugs

I don't think anyone is saying that you cannot get the best healthcare on the planet if you have the required money. Lots of money. The problem is that most people don't have that kind of money and the system as a whole is designe

AGI = Artificial General Intelligence. By definition we are not AGI. Maybe GI, but when the author has trouble articulating basic things they lose credibility and I lose interest.

People know it but they're eager beavers. The right way: slow way the fuck down to the point you're practically on vacation during the holidays without taking vacation. Take your vacation during other times in the year.

My Subaru from 2018 can do this. It's not rocket system and most cars nowadays have a collision detection system. This is not a slef-driving capability by any means.

Highway self-driving is mostly a solve problem (except maybe Tesla which will occasionally fuck it up). Urban areas are where the problems are at nowadays.

Is this a problem that needs solving? Would you be comfortable dying in a car crash where it's due to faulty software? What if you replace the humans with machines and after that as a result of a bug you get 200k deaths in a year?

Yes. I have a name for your method also: debugger free development (DFD!). While controversial with some my theory is that if you need to attach a debugger to understand what is going on with a live program you've already lost. Logging

I think we all do a bit of TDD, just not the extreme kind. If you already have the code and now you're trying to extend it, thinking about how this is going to be done and writing a few tests around the usage makes sense. It also makes
