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?
I live in Japan, where most people are old, and I can confidently say you’re wrong
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?

Is saving 500$ by generating some shitty AI art the bar? I thought this supposed to replace entire departments
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?
Then you’re paying higher consumption taxes and property taxes, and higher prices on business costs passed on to you. Do I even have to explain this? Just because you can’t see the ball anymore doesn’t mean it stopped…
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 think that’s up to interpretation. They said Canada is “unmatched globally”, which I interpreted as a belief that Canada is the best country in the world. Agreed on the second half though.
