That’s irrelevant. The claim was that Tiktok is uncensored, not that it didn’t censor the things “Americans at large are being blinded to”. If they’ll censor one thing, they’ll censor anything, as we’ve already seen with pro-Palestine content.

Mention the name, coward

This Democratic voter would love to vote for a young, promising, progressive candidate though

In what fantasyland is Tiktok uncensored? Tiktok is the whole reason we get screenshots where words like sex, kill, dead, gun, assault, rape, and every swear word imaginable are censored. Tiktok is the reason for euphemisms like “seggs” (sex) and “grape” (rape). There was a time when food content struggled on Tiktok because you’d get shadow banned for having a knife in your video.

Honestly I have more respect for sex workers than monarchs. Sex workers actually work hard and provide a valuable service, monarchs simply exist. The comparison falls flat for me

No, your LLM writes your design documentation and tells you how your application is supposed to work, according to what you wrote.

Also, you’re either writing dead-simple applications, or you’re being incredibly hyperbolic if those are the only questions left left after your design document is written.

But I get to focus on the parts where that judgement is actually needed and not the more mundane and toilsome parts of coding.

The parts you’re doing yourself are writing tests and fixing vibe-coded bugs. And you’re outsourcing all the creative, design-based aspects of programming. I think you and I have very different definitions of “mundane” and “toilsome”.

Having to figure out hosting, no matter if it’s self, peer, or whatever else hosting, kinda makes this proposal DOA I think. It’s kinda using a jackhammer for a problem that’s already been solved by a screwdriver.

A did is a virtual actor that reroutes to a real actor and collects content across real actors

Where is that virtual actor hosted? If it’s centralized, I feel like it defeats the purpose of user-centric identity control. If it’s user-hosted, that sounds like GPG with extra, even more inconvenient steps.

Yeah I don’t think this is gonna get anywhere when the easiest alternative to controlling your account is to just host your own Lemmy instance, and you can do that literally right now with no changes to Lemmy or the protocol.

It’d be nice for ActivityPub to support optional GPG signatures for those that want to have that level of control. That would get you all the identity verification that this new fangled did stuff gets you, with the added bonus of GPG being a reliable, existing, proven technology that people already know how to support.

Then more people from all over the world should be encouraging Americans to push for more mail-in voting (and other expanded voting options). Not telling people to “bloody well queue up”.

If you don’t live here, why would you comment about how we vote? Voicing your opinion on a topic that you “don’t really care” about is meaningless at best and harmful at worst. If we were anything alike you’d recognize that, and you’d be advocating for more access and methods for voting, not less.

Except voting days are during the work week and the majority of the voting population can’t afford to miss work to “bloody well queue up”. Restricting mail in voting is voter suppression in this country.

Why the fuck do you care if someone stood in line to vote anyways?

I swear, no one reads the username they’re replying to lmao.

I didn’t say any of that. I’m not the one that made the original comment that started this thread, I’m not arguing with any straw men. I’m just some guy several comments deep in the thread that decided to contribute.

No one said AI can do absolutely everything soup to nuts.

Yes they did, there’s an entire “vibe coding” industry based on non-developers using AI to write (shitty) software from start to finish. All kinds of software and tech companies are encouraging more and more AI use because they believe AI can write software from the ground up. This article is a direct response to those people.

You circled all the way back to the original point lol. The whole thrust of this conversation is “AI can be used to automate parts of the work, but you still need knowledgeable people to finish it”. Just like “a concrete 3d printer can be used to automate parts of building a house, but you still need knowledgeable people to finish it.”

He wants to go back to a “utopia” where it’s ok to beat your wife

Fuck you

I’m sure you’ll find something

Carrying a grudge? “This long and vocally”? Who? How?

And I’ll say it again - it isn’t toxic entitlement for users to expect to receive support on the platform they’ve been told to use to receive support. I’m not sure how you can argue differently, unless you twist words to the point of meaninglessness.

I meant it’s not “toxic entitlement” like the other commenter I replied to claimed. Edited my original comment to hopefully be clearer.
