Anyone else think this looks like a retro-futuristic adult toy with an extra buzzy feature?

I don’t know what a Mind War Accounts is and am uncertain if I should answer. Please send help.

I love the concept of Eat The Reich

I love the design of the physical book.

I started reading the actual book and it felt like the game designers were chastising me because I could potentially play the game in a different way than they envisioned it.

When I saw “American rail” the first and only thought I had was of a porn parody of a movie: An American Rail: Fievel Bangs West.

Honestly, most people will use those words interchangeably. So if you’re talking to someone, just understand that, to that person, they likely mean the same thing.

“in a row?”

I don’t know about op, but this is the exact kind of thing I’d buy from a thrift store

I would say that we can’t really quantify morality on a time scale that large. I may be confusing terms here but the specifics of what is and isn’t considered moral will vary wildly between different groups of people and different time periods.

Even if you break morality down to the concept of “don’t cause unnecessary suffering” leaves a lot of room for different interpretation.

AI is a tool, Ashish is 100% correct in that it may do some things for developers but ultimately still needs to be reviewed by people who know what they’re doing. This is closer to the change from punch cards to writing code directly on a computer than making software developers obsolete.

Honestly, I just ask if they can solve FizzBuzz. It shows me how they approach problems, how they communicate their process, and that they know basic programming concepts. The rest of the interview just kinda tells me if I’d get along with them as a person. Most other things, good and bad, only show up over time.

Then again, I work with software that isn’t exceptionally complex.

I wonder how biology plays into this. I never noticed a huge shift in hangover intensity. Yeah they got a little worse in my 30s but nothing as debilitating as what I’ve been lead to believe would happen.

I’m up to four or five. Honestly, we should keep track and see who gets the high score

Part of me is wanting to put that new PC build I just started saving for on a credit card instead.

Real leftist use Arch, obviously.

That’s a good idea, I do use Obsidian for TTRPG notes

I understand sentiment after seeing how a lot of tech companies are. The other side of it is this: Developers still have bills to pay. FOSS projects are great, especially if they’re done by a small team and have a supportive community, but there are only a limited number of developers who have a combination of knowledge, skill, free time, and financial capability to truly dedicate themselves to FOSS projects.

If I could support myself by coding for FOSS projects, I would probably try (hell I just might not be aware of opportunities for this) but that isn’t the reality in front of me.

The Black Hole is a fantastic movie (at least if memory serves, it’s been awhile) that nobody seems to have heard of.

Which means twice the savings when you unexpectedly lay them both off!

They’ll see the sales of the Charger tank and will conclude that people just don’t want muscle cars, which is sad because in the next few years I was thinking about getting one.

Oh well, what can you do.

Healthcare shouldn’t be political currency. Healthcare care is an inherently political issue, as each government has to determine the best strategy for them, but like many things in the US politicians see it as just another talking point and something that actually impacts people. This leads to policy being made by people who aren’t knowledgeable about healthcare for people who have strong about healthcare but often aren’t impacted by these policies and don’t have a strong understanding of the topic.

While it would still be a horrible thing to have happen, I’m starting to think that having a bunch of LLMs run/control the government wouldn’t necessarily be worse than what we have now (at least in the US).
