  • Definitely part of it. The other part is soooo many companies hire shit idiots out of college. Sure, they have a degree, but they’ve barely understood the concept of deep logic for four years in many cases, and virtually zero experience with ANY major framework or library.

    Then, dumb management puts them on tasks they’re not qualified for, add on that Agile development means “don’t solve any problem you don’t have to” for some fools, and… the result is the entire industry becomes full of functionally idiots.

    It’s the same problem with late-stage capitalism… Executives focus on money over longevity and the economy becomes way more tumultuous. The industry focuses way too hard on “move fast and break things” than making quality, and … here we are, discussing how the industry has become shit.



  • No, they’re pointing out the chilling effect of shitting on the topic.

    You’re the kind of fuckwit that would say Chris Hansen does no good against predators because he’s one guy doing a small set of stings… You’re the kind of guy who’d shit on a compromise policy that’s otherwise still a step in the right direction. You’re the kind of guy to make good the enemy of great.

    and you have the gall to use insults when YOU are the one committing the social faux pas…

    Pathetic. If you’re going to point out flaws, be constructive with it. Otherwise it is still on YOU if someone assumes negative intent from unconstructive criticism.

    IMO, this kind of amazement mostly points to humans not really unserstanding how tiny the building blocks of reality are. Even the “massive” protein molecules your body uses with hundreds of thousands of atoms in them, tens of thousands of amino acid chains, can fit many on the head of a sewing needle.

    Titin has over 30,000 amino acids in it, and barely gets over 1um in length. That’s barely wider than a sharp razor blade’s edge, and they’re orders of magnitude sharper than most knives.

    The scale of the world is crazy, and we are already giants in it.


  • That won’t protect shit. You need laws that actually protect and preserve privacy. Otherwise they’ll just find some loophole. Like the NSA in the US. Not supposed to get searched without a warrant to the point where evidence gathered in such ways is supposed to be inadmissable in court… But your data isn’t your property.

    Even if it were your property, you’d have to add protections so that just because a company handles your data doesn’t magically make it their data to sell for profit so it ends up spread far and wide and hackable in dozens of databases around the world.

    If you don’t protect PRIVACY and your right to control your own data, they’ll just say they can force companies to use more hackable methodologies instead of an outright back door. They’ll just force government ID to get on the web so even just your comms patterns without the content can be very telling. They could even simply force companies to forward the data some other way after the data legally becomes the company’s data…

    If you try to protect “from mass surveilance” without understanding the legal avenues in which your data is extracted… you’ll just end up making room some other way while innoculating the tech illiterate public from how vulnerable their data still is.

    Remember, nobody thought there was mass surveilance in the US until Snowden leaked it… Even then, the tech illiterate do not understand how it is EXACTLY a runaround of the fourth amendment.





  • More like later it turned out God never existed and humanity’s attempt at eloquent moral education with fables and parables turned in to a systemic control mechanism that then turned on humanity because its entire purpose was utterly corrupted by the rich and powerful.

    Religion itself has already been on the path of destroying shared understanding for centuries. “AI” isn’t unique in that regard.



  • Reminds me of the recent “debates” about not dehumanizing Nazis…

    No, you fucking losers, Nazi’s do not deserve respect!

    If someone’s aim is to FUCKING KILL YOU, the last thing I want to hear from self-rightous buffoons is, “but you might hurt their feelings!”

    Claiming it’s “bad” to call bad things bad because it biases others against that thing… is also fucking dumb tone policing. It’s GOOD when bad things have “bad” associated with them!! It’s GOOD to call the people that push for bad things also bad… because they ARE bad people.
