I had one encounter with an obviously vibe coded website last year. Everything looked great, but nothing worked. Had to deal with the company over email.

Things might be better now, but that was a clear warning of what future may hold.

One of the most important solutions is never taken seriously enough, because most people are just big children: eat less meat.

It's appropriate to point out here once again that Israel supported Hamas in hopes of dividing Palestine, so, you know.

>I don't know if there's a word for it, but the mentality or personality trait or whatever that makes people hand-wave away completely predictable outcomes until they actually happen

We used to call this stupidity, but nowadays it's said to offend and thus alienate the idiot snowflakes who just want a strong leader with simple answers.

Ok, humor me. Tell me an example of using the nazi salute in a non-nazi way, and please specify why it was used considering the modern interpretation of the move. Only modern use, not going back to Romans.

A couple of fresh accounts spouting nonsense in this thread. Could be just Elon's AI force in action.

The guy used Fox News arguments and dared to blame others for being brainwashed. Pointing and laughing seems to be the only option left here, indeed.

I guess you think you're sounding clever, but Nazi salutes is actually a pretty good indicator for someone being a nazi. Believe it or not.

At least there is Fox News to spoon feed the truth to people like these.

Yeah, since when did he get to decide things associated with the Nazi saluting tech trillionaire is low morality? The guy who is openly manipulating markets for his advantage should get the same respect and dignity everyone else does!
