I said "Using LLMs makes a unmaintainable climate-destroying bug ridden slopfest."

Does an LLM make unmaintainable code? Generally, yes. Its tremendously verbose, with structures strange for humans.

Climate destroying? Depends on the LLM, but if its a US corporate based one, then yes. Just go look at the methane burners and diesel burners needed before power grid hookups years later. Climate devastation for sure.

Bug ridden? #7 on HN is "AI-Generated GitHub Copilot “Autofix” Allowed Compromise of Snowflake's Jira" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49331423

All of that defends the slur 'slopfest', which is well deserved.

Whose ethics? What are the axioms? What are the exceptions? How do you handle paradoxes?

Most of the time, it's just some shitty corporate "ethics" with: make money at all costs but don't let the company look bad.

The LLMs will always do the worse option to customers, to extract more money. Burn'em all to the ground.

We have a hotel in þingeyri on eclipse day. We're at 1min50s at our hotel.

Who's wronged here? The children.

How much do they get for being wronged? Absolutely nothing.

It all just goes to the governments coffers to be wasted away on a few PSAs directed at children.

So you're arguing the same technofascist arguments that Apple and Google both claim. I own my phone, not technofascist sky daddy, or whatever developer also envisions that role.

My hardware. My rules. More people like you need to learn what ownership actually bloody means.

If you're smart enough to buy a phone that supports GrapheneOS, AND install it, yeah you should have root.

And tools like XPrivacy and plugins allow control of subsystems like GPS spoofing and lying to apps.

I think as a citizen and a 2x juror, that it is our responsibility first to determine if a law should be a law for all. Secondly, if the law passes scrutiny, ONLY then should we determine guilt or innocence.

I am highly disincentivised in seeing victimless crimes as crimes. Like drug usage and all that. Or destruction of horrific security appratus like Flock.

Simply put, the laws wrong. And that means 'Not Guilty' for anyone I would have to judge, even if they admitted it in open court.

(I'm also aware that jury nullification has also been used to find black lynching perpetrators to be not guilty of the same nullification. I said that I judge a law if it should be. Murder is pretty clearly not victimless, but extenuating circumstances like self defense are a thing. Lynching is terrible, and so is freeing lynching perpe-traitors.)

Flock, and anybody who funds them are the real domestic terrorists. Anybody who destroys these devices are patriots in my book.

And if I ever serve for jury duty over a case like that, they didn't do it.

Locks on cockpit doors

Vigilant passengers.

That's it. All the security theater is exactly that - it's a theater production.

The TSA can't even detect guns reliably. In 2023, they failed 95% of gun tests. https://www.travelcodex.com/tsa-misses-95-of-weapons-in-its-...

Or different sites require laptops in separate boxes, but this site is fine. Or shoes on, or shoes off. Porno scanners. Basically the TSA was a big corporate donation to security appratus, and a huge worthless make-work operation.

And if they're really worried about terrorism, it's still beyond stupid. There's still long lines BEFORE security that they could target.

But you know, that person with a small pocketknife is a "REAL DANGER" so the government thieves those evil weapons or how dare they bring 2.5 ounces!

Its stupid idiot theater all around.

Or hell, 2 years ago with "those fucking apes", aka NFTs.

Or, the Meta-Verse. Yeah, that really took.... Off.

Who you associate with is absolutely up for discussion. And the WMF is OK with hiring staunch Trump defenders.

By federal law, if a company has a union, the union must represent ALL non-management workers, even those who do not pay dues.

This is obviously fucked up. But this has been union law at the NLRB for a long time.

The fair response: a union should only legally be responsible for representing its members. But these sorts of terrible union laws are the consequence of attempting to destroy them since their creation.

And for those of you who think unions are terrible (capitalists and ilk), what we had before was 'firebomb the business or the bosses house', and basically waging war between capitalists and labor. Unions and legal representation WAS the compromise.

Labor history has always been a bloody and murderous affair. Go look up the history of the pinkertons.

Misinformation.

Voluntary recognition just means that there isn't a 120 hard fight against union elections to decide if there CAN BE a union.

Dark Horse comics just voluntarily acknowledged their union. After that is union elections, to decide who the union elected is.

I just bought 2 switches, 48 port 10GbE with 4x QSFP+ at 40Gb fiber. $110 each.

You can even get 24 port QSFP+ @100Gb networking devices for $350.

Yeah while ram and gfx is $$$$$, networking is rock bottom prices..

Energy drink company slyly changed energy drink policy! Hell, I figured the wall on the White House would be a ~~Brando~~ Red Bull logo, but even in Idiocracy, that president took advice from real experts.
