We need to make our own organizations not run on the profit motive alone
Nice little business you got there, thriving. Would be a shame if private equity bought it now, wouldn’t it.
We need to do something about the fiscalization of fucking everything before we start giving human rights to greenbacks.
We are in a society that has fallen prey to a memetic money religion and wishful infinite returns thinking.
The games industry is built upon the idea of exploiting the young and talented, and every MBA involved in management should be fucking ashamed. Games are the pinacle of the human persuit of increased leisure time… When we do get to post-scarcity, post-work, its all we’ll do together.
The money is the problem, as is the MBA mills churning out poisonous “leaders” with no grasp of their product, just knowledge of how to squeeze returns.
Everyone makes fun of coding bootcamps, but the MBA mills and babies first economics classes are fucking ruining our societies.
the fediverse is frustrating like that.
I consider if you’re typing words into a computer the CIA is reading it. Its a generally good idea to assume everything is already compromised.
They’re currently snarfing all the encrypted data to later decrypt it when the technology becomes possible, betting on quantum computing to break our current encryption technologies.
Its the only explanation I have for why AI needs disk storage. They’ve already indexed the internet, no?
Also, impressively, it ran like butter on a HTC ChaCha about 10 years after that phone was relevent, and was a joy to message on.
Discord is by far worse. 1bn in VC funding and all that Nitro and it still fucking sucks ass.
It also enables far more of the “discord moderator” stereotype user behaviour.
At least telegram runs on garbage and doesn’t require 4GB just for electron to sit in my system memory like a fat pigeon.
If I never have to hear Tim Sweeny’s stupid opinions again, Disney can have it.
I want to get rid of coal, but also want to increase nuclear power. I exist. I am people.
Newsflash, dipshit, you’re not the player character.
I’m not sure how I’m supposed to access that community
Its supposed to be like 5c/shot.
I think the reason we’re not seeing these being pushed harder is robotised flack turrets work pretty good at taking out cheap drones.
Half a million dollars to operate a jet to take out two 7k drones is an actual embarrassment.
At least dragonfire is pretty dope.
I’m quite a fan of endevour, as its just arch with a pretty installer and they occasionally update the space backgrounds.
What software do you -need- to work?
Going into it with the mindset of finding the linux workflow instead of forcing your prior workflow is the path of (least resistance|greatest productivity)
Don’t get me wrong, I too want nuclear power, but we need to hit it hard enough and without outsourcing, and to do it long enough to build institutional knowledge and get costs down. I kinda want the Rolls Royce SMR to work out, but britain is crap at building anything.
Why so many still import from Russia
Isn’t that US related trade restrictions? Also Kazakhstan supplies some 43% of the world supply of Uranium, followed by Canada at 14%.
the tech to enrich and process it
If you watch some of the early American nuclear projects it seems like its about as hard to work with as coal, and enrichment means spinning it. Its all known quantities.
Also while I’m here, the quanties of nuclear waste are so small compared to the literal mountains of flyash power plants make. And the french are really good at reprocessing it. I think we can do better than what the Americans did with their miniature nuclear reactor on Greenland (just flushed the toxic waste into a cavern drilled into the ice, along with all the poops).
Also, nobody ever seems to want to talk about the radioactive output of coal stations just burning coal with trace radioactive elements in it. Just straight up the stack and over the neighbourhood.
It was also fortunate that all it did was contaminate some towns and land forever uninhabitable.
I kinda understand the paranoia, I just wish I could hope that economies of scale would kick in after a while but we’ll just not build another one for almost exactly the right amount of time for all the institutional knowledge to disappear.
I’m sure McKinsey are making a killing. All those risk assessments need 6k/day consultants.
a good learning example would be recreating his designs yourself in CAD and writing your own firmware, or rolling your own version of QMK or whatever its running
RP2040 is another jellybean part, much of a muchness. I’ve got both on devboards in my parts box.
To be fair, I’ve washed more adept developers out of the bottom of my coffee cup on monday morning.
I feel that its not that LLMs are showing intelligence, its just humans don’t always.
I quite like the IKEA bulbs and buttons, but not their base station, I just use a standard zigbee one.
However, I don’t want matter, I just want zigbee. Its well behaved, a known quantity and they’re light bulbs. Giving them an IP stack is just increasing the attack target footprint. I do not understand the benefits or appeal of it.
