This is the natural consequence of failing to riot and tear down the government in 2000.

Male and female rape victims often experience physical arousal and even orgasm against their will. This is no secret.

Forget about folders. Use a good metadata schema.

Luigi was framed.

Dumb fucks really think LLMs are the kind of AI involved in medical and scientific research.

Ahh, this is fun. Every time I'm like "Is this it? Is this the one?"

But no, it never is.

Modern UI designers don’t have a fucking clue.

You’d think the first principle would be “don’t break the existing fucking UI”, but no.

Infinite scroll. Windows without toolbars. Replacing context menu with useless site-specific one. Forcing links to open in new or same tab, depriving the user of choice. Blocking text select. Blocking copy, as if that’s somehow going to stop people from stealing your shitty content. Fucking with the browser history.

And then there’s the constant reinventing of the wheel. How many times do we need to implement a fucking checkbox?

No lie, I’ve actually had designers come to me with a concept for “a visual indicator that shows the user how they are progressing through the page”.

Microsoft has a Discord?

Worse. It’s “attempting to understand this might cause me to question my faith, so I’m not going to even try.”

The whole point is to 'normalise' all the issues with Trump's presidency so that the public just sees impeachment etc as a normal political process rather than a sign of something being seriously wrong.

Aww, did Spez trade the family cow for some "magic" beans?

Good luck rebuilding the farm now, buddy.

Boomers started out progressive then sold out. They project this onto everyone else as if it’s the natural order of things.

It’ll severely limit his ability to travel internationally. Plus sometimes it’s just about making a statement.

They’re right, except for one thing; once you know what to look for, these people are easy as hell to spot.

They’re drawn to power, in any form. They consolidate it. They build power systems around them. And they exploit it.

You can spot them because they’re the people who, somehow, the rules never apply to. There’s always an exception, a workaround, an excuse, a rationale, a condescending it’s more complicated than that, dear.

They’re the people who say the right things but never follow through. We’ll be fully transparent, followed by radio silence.

The ones who convince you to give them authority for a good cause. We should form a committee to establish some common principles, but it ends up being a committee of one, and the principles sufficiently vague to be twisted to work any way.

I think we have natural instincts for detecting these people, but we’re taught from an early age to suppress them. Never judge a book by its cover! Always give people the benefit of the doubt! Respect your elders! You just have trouble with authority!

We’ll never be free of these psychopaths until we learn to spot them, confront them, and prevent them from building and growing their power systems.

Nope, it’s also a consequence of often choosing the greater evil.

And for favouring short term over long term planning.

And zero-sum thinking.

And us vs them mentality.

And a lack of critical thinking in general.

Let's not forget that Mangione looks nothing like the guy in the original mugshot.

Cool. Now we just need to allow people to transition before puberty, and we’re all sorted.

In the early days, the days of “don’t be evil”, Google’s PageRank algorithm was miles ahead of their competitors’ methods. Combined with a clean interface and unobtrusive text-only ads, clearly separated from search results, the site was a real pleasure to use.

The officer concluded that Sacco “was experiencing an episode of road rage which caused her to actually and intentionally increase the speed of her vehicle and strike (the victim) against her will.”

Police arrested Sacco on charges of leaving the scene of a crash involving injuries and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.

Why not attempted murder?

Yeah they added “Don’t hallucinate” to the prompt.
