I don’t enjoy fireworks. Maybe if it was like the year 1600 and I’d never seen color and light it’d be really cool. But we have high definition Tv now.

I wasn’t imagining something that just makes decisions that are handed down. They collate and evaluate the decisions and input from below.

Why not local communities that feed up into larger representation groups?

You don’t need central management. You just need to have workers keep the proceeds of their labor instead of uninvolved shareholders and “owners”.

I was going more for like Shakespearean English or something similarly olde, heh

Good for you.

I got rid of my car many years ago (I’m agéd) when I moved into the city. I never miss it.

The problem has never ever ever been words per minute. That is a completely irrelevant metric. A distraction.

Anything the AI produces is going to need to be evaluated by a person, and that is a more difficult, less rewarding task.

And if it doesn’t need to be reviewed by a person because it’s magically flawless, that’s extremely anti-labor so fuck that.

Every coworker I’ve seen that uses AI code tools heavily is bad. They produce (or at least push) nonsense code they don’t understand.

I would rather have a team that goes slowly and understands what they’re building than a team of excitable slop pushers going a thousand lines a second.

It also kind of sucks for labor, and most people labor.

Maybe you produce more good stuff and get paid the same. Feels bad.

More likely you produce more slop infused stuff, and you have the much less enjoyable task of fixing it. Cory doctorow wrote a whole metaphor about that with reverse centaurs.

Interesting. We used the free localstack at a previous job and it kind of sucked. Mostly we were trying to do S3, and it made adding a lot of files kind of painful. Looks like this has better support for “I need to load a bunch of files into S3 when I start working”.

Can you map a directory and subfolders to S3 with this, or so you need to make calls to “upload” everything?

A friend of mine at least once ordered delivery from the Mexican place that was directly below her apartment. She said the delivery guy was a little confused. She had a lot of depression at the time.

I’d like to see more spaces converted into like “15 minute loading/unloading”. There’s a lot of double parking that’s just people trying to do something quick.

I think it was on coney Island avenue the other day that the whole right lane was taken up by people double parking. That’s absurd. Not sure why so many people needed to drive someplace so close to several subways and bus stops, but there’s a lot of ways to discourage that space.

Conservatives don’t say things because they’re true. They say things because they think it will get them what they want.

Right. For someone in an unstable environment, having a good now is a better choice since it probably won’t be there later.

I do wonder what you’d find if you controlled for wealth and stability. I feel like some people have really poor impulse control and delayed gratification despite coming from a stable home life

When the proposal was first announced back in 2012, there was a predictable backlash from residents, who believed that affordable housing would bring crime into the area and lower property values; and head of the North San Rafael Coalition of Residents Carolyn Lenert said that the project was “inciting class warfare”.

It’s only class warfare when the rich are hurt. Or mildly uncomfortable.

Cool. I imagine the right wing will be frothing and crying, but they’ll do that no matter what. No sense trying to appease the unappeasable.

Is this a joke?

Management at the horrible mega-corp I work at is extremely frothy about AI. They just did a big all-hands where they said they want 100% adoption of AI. Whatever that means.

Any company convicted of posting a ghost job should be required to pay a year’s compensation to every individual who applied to the job.

There should be a well funded team of investigators and a tip line. Rewards for ratting out management.
