Actions have consequences. You can justify your actions however you want, and I can judge you for them.
Nobody’s talking about starting businesses. The article is specifically about pypi packages, which don’t require any sales and marketing. And there’s still no noticeable uptick in package creation or updates.
It’s well understood that humans do not instinctively grasp statistics, are bad at knowing when they’re being lied to, and are hard wired to take shortcuts. AI companies gave everyone a button that does their job for…
I disagree, the US clearly enjoys being the biggest spender in the world
Do you think that if europe had tripled its defence spending over the last century the US would have spent more or less?
Exactly. This is not a local politics problem.
Ok, you do all that work at home and manage to block flock in your area. It doesn’t matter because the next city over where you work installed them so you get tracked anyway. Then 2 years later a new city council gets…
The pope, ostensibly the person you believe to be the representative of god on earth, has said that your product is garbage and here you are rationalizing it. Are you sure you have faith?
Props for your work on these but they’re toys mate. These are things you built for yourself that other people happened to find useful. That’s great! I’m not shitting on that, but it doesn’t really convince me that AI…

There’s lots of slop out there, that doesn’t mean it’s actually good or useful code.
Then where are all the amazing open source programs written by individuals by themselves? Where are all the small businesses supposedly assisted by AI?
I’m not playing a game, I’m comparing facts. The median person working in the US is poorer than the median person working in Canada. Fact. Average tax rates for people with the median income are basically the same in…
I liked it well enough when I was travelling that I decided to try and live here, so I got a job and a work visa. That was almost 4 years ago now.
Now adjust for PPP and subtract healthcare costs. Not to mention all the other benefits Canada provides.
I’m Canadian, have lived in 4 different continents, and there’s plenty of countries that are just as good or better than Canada out there. Case in point, I live in Japan. Some things are worse than Canada, but the…
