Foreword: I am not the person you replied to, and I also don’t agree with killing anybody.

That being said, I have to comment on this:

Killing them is just a waste of talent and experience.

I would argue they have neither. The people they employ are the ones with the talent and experience.

Take Elon Musk, for example. He makes big claims that sound plausible, but anybody who actually understands what he’s talking about knows that he’s only pretending to be knowledgeable in the subject. It’s the engineers and designers at Tesla that do all the hard work in bringing products to market, yet he gets the absurdly high pay package for doing little more than lying to consumers.

Presumably, yes. The only thing Taco hears is himself.

He is obsessed with windmills and thinks they are bad.

How did we not see this before?
It all makes sense now.

“After a brief investigation over mimosas and a cheese platter, we have found credible evidence that Good was a member of the Alphabet Mafia. The agent was justified in his use of lethal force against a dangerous criminal. No charges will be filed.”

Would they even get that bonus as cash? The cynic in me thinks there’s a missing asterisk saying “in equivalent benefits”, where the benefits are just health insurance and something stupid like a gym membership or subsidizing part of the price when buying a new American™ car.

That would at least make it less of a slap in the face to the teachers who are actually trying to make the country a better place.

Historical context, delivery, and handling.

HUP—hang up—is sent to indicate the TTY is closed.
TERM—terminate— is sent by request.

What happens when received is usually up to the process. Most of them just leave the defaults, which is to exit.

Step 1: Make personal computing unaffordable.
Step 2: Rent “personal” computing as a service.
Step 3: Boil the frog by continuously restricting what people can do with the service.
Step 4: Wait for local computing to die.
Step 5: Stop LLMs from running on rented computers.

Hardware won’t last forever. Once they have full control over what people can do with computers, they have full control over the information people are exposed to. LLMs won’t help with that if the only ones that are accessible to the layman are sanitized and censored.

As of now, total is 800 k.

Someone anonymously dropped $5,000 as a donation. It’s always nice to see that some people are using their much-higher-than-average disposable income for the good of others.

Not distraction, scapegoat. Fascism needs an “others” demographic to blame for citizens’ hardships, and they have realized that it’s more effective to have multiple of them so voters can cherry-pick whichever they feel more strongly about.

If I had a dollar for every time on Lemmy that I encountered a mysognistic CS student that thinks they know more than they do, I would now have a dollar. And that’s quite a fucking shame, considering I’ve been here for years.

The industry you’re trying to break into was founded by women, LGBT folks, and people who envisioned technology as a path towards the betterment of humanity. Do better. You’re acting like a disgrace to its legacy.

Oh boy. We’re already at 13 out of 14 on the checklist.

Enough for a single, uninsured ride to the hospital. What a deal! /s

They’re political victims of the Democrat Epstein HOAX.
— Republicans, probably

I didn’t want to make it sound too scary 😉

Seriously, though, git really needs an option to treat --force as --force-with-lease. In the exceedingly rare occasion where I might want to completely overwrite a branch, it should be extra explicit by having to type something like --force-and-overwrite.

Solution:

git commit --amend
git push --force

Problem:

The process of discovering best practices on how to keep a clean git history is a goddamned challenge.

A horse can call itself a duck, but that doesn’t make it a duck; it’s still a horse.

Likewise, a country that calls itself communist while practicing capitalism under a hierarchical ruling party isn’t communist. Even if every member of the CCP had equal say in the country’s policies and direction, 8% of the total population is far from representing the working class, let alone being led by them.

They’re not communist, correct. They’re capitalist.

Don’t forget to add incompetent leadership to that list. If feature needs to be shipped by some arbitrary deadline and the engineers are forced to rush through the design process, you end up with a patchwork hack of tech debt that leads to more tech debt.

On █████████, Jeffery Epstein’s communications with ████████████ and ██████████ confirmed the █████████ of ████████. In a private █████ exchange, ████████ discussed the █████████ of ████████ for ███████. The ████████ was then scheduled to ██████████ with █████████, and would then meet up with Bill Clinton at the █████████ of ██████████. Flight logs for flight ██████ corroborate the meet up between Bill Clinton and █████████.

Further investigation into ████████ revealed the █████████ with █████████ and Bill Clinton. █████████ Obama ████████████ purchase █████████████ Bill Clinton ████████ and Do███████████████. ████████████████████████

Much like “blood is thicker than water”, the saying “facts don’t care about your feelings” is misleadingly taken out of context from a larger quote. The actual saying is,

“Facts don’t care about your feelings, and neither do I. In fact, I don’t care about your facts, either. Fuck your facts, and fuck your feelings. My feelings tell me that I’m right and that’s a fact.”
