Apple certainly played a major part. The long distance culture war was enabled by long distance visibility. The whole 'own the libs' thing wouldn't have existed in an era where everybody wasn't paticipating in a medium…

I wonder if rural farm town to Miami is the real story here vs. any sort of national culture clash.
At some point, (programming) languages themselves will become vestigal abstractions.
Well said. As mentioned in another post, it's not about intelligence, it's about vulnerability. One particular type of misery is mourning, and the western world does a pretty good job of creating mourners in a number of…

I wonder if Metroloft cut corners on structural engineering practices given that they also exploit non-union workers.
How did you come to that conclusion? Were you alive and in the Northeast US during the 80s and 90s, if not, what are your sources?

Really glad you finally got a correct diagnosis, and thank you for the tools/utilities you've contributed. My early rust skills benefitted significantly from having read your code! Good luck and good health.
Seriously. Exploring the topic and jumping from 1970s to 2003 without mentioning the Cocteau Twins is criminal.
Who needs occam's razor when you've got a mobieus shaped breadknife?
I wonder how many people IBM will layoff to celebrate this one.

Agents interacting with humans on an emotional level is manipulative. You've repeatedly stated that your goal is to make agentic conversations seem more human. This is deception that most people neither want nor need.
If you want to reform the justice system, more power to you, but while it exists the last people who should be exempt from its reach are those who wield its power in criminal ways.
