I think this one is just more obviously a bubble. If the pop is inevitable, then, the sooner the better. That, and the AI everywhere all at once is tangible and in your face. No one I know likes it.

That guy to all his friends: “AI makes me 10x more productive!”

My company hired a consulting firm to help with a transition period. The consulting firm sent my boss an email that outlined the plans for what we should do and how they are going to help. Without directly giving it away, the email was clearly AI output, and my boss instantly terminated their contract. We aren’t exactly anti-AI, but to the point of the post, it’s just so rude… and my boss is pretty fuckin cool.

Snowflakes

I can definitely respect a limited approach. I personally don’t find any benefit from it. Anecdotally, I’ve become much more productive since switching from OOP style C++, to just straight C. I think a lot of that comes from the boilerplate and ceremony required to make it do the thing, but in C, you just do the thing.

I also think even using objects tends to encourage poorer design choices by thinking in terms of individual items (and their lifetimes) which is enforced by the constructor/destructor model. As opposed to thinking in terms of groups of items which leads to simpler and safer code.

Yup. They made it to the other side of the bell curve meme. Most developers have an OOP phase until they learn that it’s utter bullshit.

Yeah… Wheres the AbstactAnimalFactoryManager?

They are very similar in that, even if there comments point out the obvious flaws in the information, they will never correct the record. Because they never gave a shit in the first place.

You’re not wrong, but I haven’t seen these channels actively policing their comments. They’re just pushing garbage and playing the algorithm.

These political hacks are actively malicious because logic and reasoning goes against their brand.

It doesn’t seem to be as well known, but YouTube is one of the biggest distributors of blatant disinformation, and they have done fuck all about it. There are so many individual right wing disinformation channels that wield so much more power than they should. It’s so fuckin insidious. Seriously, go find one of the alt-right YouTube accounts, and just look at the comments. Not a single one will be negative. They literally police their comments, and the only thing left is sycophantic bullshit like “thank you for exposing the truth!” It’s actually disgusting. Every YouTuber can essentially build their very own echo chamber, and they do.

I know YouTube comments should generally be ignored, but when you see something that is intentionally, blatantly misleading, a single sentence comment could be all that is required to pierce the veil. It’s axiomatic at this point that their bullshit doesn’t stand up against even surface level scrutiny.

Google could combat this with little to no effort. Put a flag next the username. Display the number of manually deleted comments. Done. But they won’t. Fuck youtube. Fuck Google. They are perfectly happy to lead the charge into fascism.

Or logic

He likes that it takes 10x longer to read everything he writes.

Microsoft will be releasing custom viruses that only infect 10.

He’s flailing so hard he is speed running through all of his tried and true distraction techniques. It’s like watching Jordan Peterson on the Surrounded thing on YouTube. He’s a one-trick pony, and it becomes obvious when you do it that fast.

I mean … even MAGA caught on. Now, are they going to see the pattern, or are they going to go back to the mental gymnastics and become furious about a book in a school library in a state they don’t live in? Unfortunately, we could safely wager our life savings on which option they will choose.

Did you hear… the leader of the world’s largest pedophile club died. Then, the subordinate members sent smoke signals, and there is a new leader. Holy shit, he’s American! Let’s interview a guy who visited an ice cream shop 2 towns away from where he went to school.

• the news for the next 3 weeks

Don’t forget blasted and clapped back.

And, one of the best sources for information is a documentary PBS made. A government funded news/broadcasting station. Quite literally the opposite of government enforced censorship.

I was hoping that wasn’t what he was driving at. I live in the US. This stuff is part of our school curriculums.

Why would either censor it? What am I missing?

Am aware. Why ask deepseek?

Why?
