Problem is, people want a silver bullet and there just isn’t one.

You need to create an economy that works for everyone where skilled workers from all professions can be successful. You can’t cram everybody into one job and expect everything to just work out.

Just about all jobs are important, and all workers deserve a living wage and fair compensation.

No amount of Band-Aid job stuffing is going to make up for a leadership that doesn’t believe that everyone ought to be able to live a good life.

You don’t want anything that advertises next generation encryption. You want tried and true encryption. You want boring encryption.

Very cool work! I read the abstract of the paper. I don't think it needs to use the "AI" buzzword because his work is already impressive and stands on its own, though, and the work has nothing to do with LLMs.

Just got back from the vet because my dog got into my roommates stash. Good news—she’s going to be fine, but she’s going to be deeply stoned for a long, long time.

Health insurance in America is a legalized extortion system that converts American lives into investor dollars and enjoys overwhelming support of our ruling class thanks to regulatory capture.

It's a fundamentally unethical and immoral business comparable to black market arms dealing or human trafficking because of the evils it knowingly perpetuates.

I worked with a developer who insisted on using the shortest names possible. God I hated debugging his code.

I’m talking variable names like AAxynj. Everything looking like matrix math.

That’s actually a deprecation warning. You’re meant to move to a more modern platform.

It’s a company culture thing. You’re not rewarded for maintaining or finishing products. You are rewarded for starting new ones.

My folks: maybe a dictator is what we need.

... my has the educational system failed you. Or perhaps you don't understand the meaning of words? Did those years of leaded gasoline get to you? I'm dumbfounded.

But lawmakers agreed to the bill late Wednesday as Justice Minister Eric Dupond-Moretti insisted the bill would affect only “dozens of cases a year.”

Precisely why it should not be passed! That's not a good reason at all. It's not worth eroding people's rights if it only affects a few cases in my personal opinion. It shows that the law doesn't need to exist in the first place.
