“Put that **** directly into my veins”, as they say

That's how it typically works, yes.

Typically intramuscular actually

That's true.

Look, we’ve had nukes for almost 100 years now. Do you really think our ancient alien zookeepers are gonna let us wipe with AI? Semi /j


Humans as a whole have had nukes, but neither you nor I have access to them, and knowledge of their construction, and the sourcing of raw material is very closely guarded. If you're not part of the cabal, you literally risked being bombed to protect the secret.

This is absolutely not the case with software.


Labor organization yes! I don't quite know how to achieve it. I also worry that my desire to become a manager is in direct conflict with my desire to contribute to labor organization.

On a separate note, I have the intensification problem in my personal work as well. I sit down to study, but, first, let me just ask Claude to do some research in the background... Oh, and how is my Cursor doing on the dashboard? Ah, right, studying... Oh, Claude is done...


> I also worry that my desire to become a manager is in direct conflict with my desire to contribute to labor organization.

Nah. You can definitely do both. A labor organization of any meaningful size needs management. A labor union is effectively a business in its own right, after all. Some unions even opt to register as corporations, and some unions even see unions rise up to protect workers from the larger union!

And certainly a tech union, to be effective, would have to be humongous given how easy it is to move the work around.


> I don't quite know how to achieve it.

Definitely not by posting on right-wing social media websites.

> I also worry that my desire to become a manager is in direct conflict with my desire to contribute to labor organization.

It is.


not a very helpful response tbh


Conveniently, about the amount of time it takes for the average person to forget and/or rematerialize in a new parallel dimension


The average person is not aware or does not care about Elon Musk’s claims and whether or not they come true.


The average person sees some headlines and gets a vague awareness that the guy is some kind of super genius who is single handedly changing the world.

The average person who has an opinion on musk has roughly the same long term memory consolidation pattern as the average person in general.


> and wait for the caller to speak first

You know why this is, right? Most phone calls these days are spam or otherwise annoyances. Many are literally just seeing if a person picks up. They’re listening to see if you’re a real human being.

The phone system is FUBAR.


This would be true if caller id didn’t exist. I suspect that these kids know perfectly well that it is someone they know on the other end of the line since it is incredibly rare these days for a person to call someone they know from an unknown line.


I agree with the general point, and I myself don't pick up any unknown numbers. But - the kids definitely know when a parent calls, so don't think the spam thing applies here.


I’ve been playing ARC Raiders. These things are how I imagine the blueprints in that game to be. Hand-buildable every day tools that prioritize for reliability


A family member has been living with prostate cancer for around a decade. Get screened and get treated.


The new abstraction is “this corporation owns this IP and has engineers who can fix and extend it at will”. You can’t git clone that.

But if there is something off the shelf that you can use for the task at hand? Great! The stakeholders want it to do these other 3000 things before next summer.


Gemini is good at reading bad handwriting you say? Might need to give it a shot at my 10 years of journals


I’m afraid you’re conflating understanding with obedience.
