Im sure the Gamers (capital g intentional, derogatory) will love it. And then act really confused when games feel unresponsive, weird and floaty, and blame this on the devs and not their graphics card which is hallucinating most of the frames.

Didnt you know? The subprime crisis of 2008 got rid of subprime numbers.

They’re targeted at execs. It’s execs who get all excited that they can start firing their expensive and pesky developers that complain so much.

Your corporate boss just saw an article about AI (yt short)

I think there might also be a bit of d) OpenAI has weird nerds defending the honour of their AIfu.

Imagine whistleblowing about unethical behaviour and than have thousands of nerds need to argue about how that what you did technically isnt whistleblowing.

What a bastardization of that post, and Scott's general views on the subject

Can someone summarize how this is a big misinterpretation or mistake?

I'm not in any way MAGA or trumpy or a culture war person [sure you are. E: one sort by controversial later and they are indeed a culture war person not a full time one but still], but I'm a long time SSC reader and I thought the post/article was about the fascinating and complete sorta morhph/takeover of the civic "ethos" or civic religion of the elite bluebloods of the USA.

From veneration of founders and founding fathers (up through Abe Lincoln, etc) as the sorta civic glue and religion that we are brought up on, to now embracing LGBTQ+ (not much emphasis on boring normal "L" and "G" [dog barks]) through parades, flags, police cars, crosswalks, holidayds, add campaigns, corporate slogans and logos, etc.

Is this not how most readers understood the article?

Hope this makes some sscers reconsider being a fan of scotts writing. (And yes there was pushback in the replies)

As more and more browsers are enshittifying, this is a small reminder that Brave is not a great alternative.

Puts down Snow Crash.

Ah look the torment nexus.

Lol, the guy goes normal weird high school level shitposter when he has the slightest pushback.

Look, I know what this subject is about, but hear me out here, what if we replace the AI doomer data scientists with A.... WHO AREYOU? WHY ARE YOU IN MY HOU... ARGH

Not a big sneer, but I was checking my spam box for badly filtered spam and saw a guy basically emailing me 'hey you made some contributions to open source, these are now worth money (in cryptocoins, so no real money), you should claim them, and if you are nice you could give me a finders fee. And eurgh im so tired of these people. (thankfully he provided enough personal info so I could block him on various social medias).

There is the NotAwfulTech awful.systems community for these kinds of posts, even if it is nice.

Wtf are you talking about, we already talked about his sister story a while back (with your 'such things'). Just because you are not aware of things doesn't mean they suddenly pop up.

Here, a post from a month ago with data going further back. (also I do hope you get why as people become more powerful and popular in various ways they also attract more scrutiny, and how that isn't bad. You shouldn't care much that namename8numbers believes in the great replacement theory, but you should worry a lot when one of the richest people in the world starts shouting about that bs)
