I’m not terribly concerned if people write code and test it with AI, so long as they verify the results themselves.

I recently saw someone try to add a PR to something on github with thousands of lines of changes and then they got mad when people didn’t want to do the free labour verifying it. That is a bullshit use of AI

Personally I wouldn’t bet on the next election. Grassroots power takes a lot longer to build, but it’s much more resilient in the long run. If you’re joining the NDP get ready to play the long game.

I doubt the people are ready for another orange wave, at least until Avi Lewis gets the local activist networks going again. On that note I encourage people to actually join the NDP and help get things rolling. Membership is very affordable (depends on region, was <$20 for me) and they will put every dollar and minute you’re willing to give to use.

Mind the context, we are talking about how little our society is capitalizing on the abilities of people, not on some stupid “we only use 10% of our brain” take

I legitimately would be okay with an “it gets to you within a month” option.

This is pretty much how all my Aliexpress orders go. Works for me.

I remember a talk by a Microsoft VP who said that a very optimistic estimate would be that we were using human intelligence and creativity at maybe 5% efficiency. The actual number is likely much lower than that.

I’m going to create experienced software engineers by taking inexperienced ones and having them develop software for a few years as part of a team.

Thank you for attending my TED talk.

I’m working hard with sweaty men to own the libs

What is weirder?

• werewolf with a human dick
• human with a canine dick

I’ve faced many attempts to severely harm me but I usually escaped. I failed to escape twice: got kneecapped with a bat once (leaving me with a permanent injury), and stabbed once miraculously missing anything vital.

My crime: having to work late, growing up in a poor neighbourhood.

I’d feel a lot safer if I could be armed. I don’t want to die.

Sweden and Canada have pretty high rates of gun ownership and don’t have this problem. That said American school shootings are not as common as they are made out to be, there has been a lot of statistical fudging to make it look so much worse than it is.

What all three countries do have are problems with gangs and they’re only getting worse as poverty drives people to crime. America has it worse because it has more poverty, but we will all catch up soon enough.
