I’m not angry at people who have done nothing. Lives are busy, people were not educated properly, etc.

I absolutely am angry at the people who could have voted against Trump and didn’t bother to cast a ballot at all.

In this case it is both malice and incompetence acting together to create the worst possible outcomes.

Wasn’t that just underwater data centers that used the surrounding ocean as for cooling?

I don’t remember wave power being a notable part of their plan.(though I may have forgotten a detail or 2 over the years)

the answer to fixing things is more and more going to be “get Claude to fix it”

Yeah that will certainly work (eyeroll) to deal with things that were done 10 years ago as a workaround to some other undocumented incompatibility.

If a company does layoffs, they should not be allowed to hire any staff in the same or similar roles for 12 months.

The workload doesn’t decrease, it just gets spread to the remaining workers who are already overloaded because of the previous round of layoffs…

This means after 5 to 10 years of this cycle all that’s left of the company’s institutional knowledge is how to deliver for KPIs and the sycophants who best adapt to this reality. You get a hollowing out of the company.

That happened (and continues to happen) to my former employer.

After years of layoffs and outsourcing, the company doesn’t have anyone on staff anymore who knows how half of the systems work.

Theae days, if something is more than 5 years old, the operations and maintenance staff (entirely outsourced contractors now) have to pray the documentation is correct (or even obtainable) if they have a hope of fixing it if anything breaks.

we have so many layoffs this year.

And the year isn’t even half over yet.

Just wait until the full impact of Trump’s bullshit works its way through the economy.

The carnage will be felt for a decade or more.

I’m extremely avoidant of anybody that even ask for ID.

I don’t even give them my phone number when getting a haircut.

Sending someone to a country other than their country of origin isn’t deporting, it’s expelling.

What if the kid lies and says they didn’t use AI?

Have them re-do the assignment in a classroom with the teacher (or any other procror) present.

Trump never admits he’s wrong about anything.

Trump is a reflection of the people who elected him (twice)

I doubt the USA will ever be able to admit that they (as a country) were ever wrong about anything.

You’d be holding more than one person liable if you were holding people liable at all

Sounds good to me.

Having some corporate abstraction shield the people who make irresponsible or dangerous choices may be beneficial to those decision makers, but it is very much not good for society.

because individuals can’t be held accountable

That’s just laziness. There are individuals who can be held accountable.

Starting with the executives who signed off on these things being put on the road in the first place.

Terabytes is a subset of Petabytes, so it’s not a complete lie.

Thr USA has a huge problem with mass shootings

And every time you point it out there will always be Americans comment that it’s not that bad.

Even though the USA far exceeds every other country that isn’t currently an active war zone.

misconceptions held by the American people that he and his colleagues are “political actors” who are making decisions based on policy, not law.

Maybe if they stopped acting like they were making decisions based in political ideology instead of law, the American people might have those opinions…

I’m sure Theil also supports that plan. He wants his puppet to have maximum power for as long as possible.

The manufacturers definitely have a large share of the blame, but people still have the agency to make better choices.

AI will replace workers.

While at the same time producing poorer quality work and consuming far more resources.

What does that say about America?

Nothing the rest of the world didn’t already know.
