About artsyca

I've been rate limited by HN and I think it's my cue to exit. This is my final message to the community with my best regards

I consider a message from dang as a badge of honour.

I totally understand the tone of my messaging is rather incongruous with the ethics of this site but I hope you can believe there is a light that shines deep within which actually cares and nurtures a deep love for our community and everyone in it.

I'm not sure if you can call it tough love but it's a mask for a sincere affection. I will try a different tack and I am grateful to your words.

It's our Achilles heel that we don't recognize our own selves and don't always see ourselves in others, we use the voice we talk to ourselves with to speak to the world around us

It's like I'm trying to solve the hardest computer problem on earth and I've been banging my head on my desk for an eternity. I think we can all relate to that feeling.

It's good of you all to keep it real for all of us, goodbye.

    Exactly bro! Now keep on rocking in the free world and understand that hubris alone does not a good programmer make but a good programmer is hubristic. Therefore hubris is a poor h…

    An interview is nothing but a glorified prisoners dilemma aka cooperation dilemma. Signalling that you're taking the path of least resistance aka snitching is hardly ingenious. And…

    Bro, people don't have any opinions of their own they just pick them up along the way. Think about it.

    Oh c'mon get over yourself Humble people don't go around talking about how humble they are, much less sideways virtue signalling on how patient and pathetic they are. If you're goi…

    I've worn these clothes every day for the past five years. That probably identifies me directly if you've worked with me -> https://twitter.com/matthewwalther/status/12823445630557…

    I think I've scraped the bottom of the barrel of YouTube content and ads, the worst are these Japanese weight loss commercials. How's your situation, are you still learning and pur…

    -- Incumbency’s biggest drawbacks are lack of creativity, sloth, internecine politics and waste. And an utter disregard for traditional business mores

    Social and political are synonyms my dude but yes not all communication is political but all communication is social.

    We have a far too narrow view of what constitutes social media. Every medium is a social one if you think about it and every social medium is political. The medium has and always w…

    The article links to a demo on the BBC micro which is simply mindblowing - https://youtu.be/oK2D1EdFXMM

    100%. The bank I used to work at had a part of the employee handbook dedicated to what happens if you're kidnapped. We're just being naive and casual as we are wont to do. Bro don'…

    The irony of this is too much. The guy who pioneered privacy invasion as a philosophy is guarding his own privacy. He should have a Facebook live stream following him 24/7

    No! It's all the knowledge we've amassed that we hardly put to any use beyond milking it for entitlements. Who ever speaks about our duty to our fellow man and the giants whose sho…

    Hey it's good of you to read the depraved rantings of a code lunatic. If I could tell you about my journey through software you'd maybe understand where I'm coming from.

    No man! Truly heartfelt. Man I must be trapped in a sarcastic twilight zone everything I say comes out sounding snarky and vitriolic.

    Exactly! Man. It's good of you to say so, and it's precisely it. The standard signals are a shirt and tie, jacket and pocket square with other accessories. Now we're on a different…

    That's mass consensus and if you want to roll with it who could possibly sway you? I've come to a whole new understanding, as a computer scientist that signalling still matters and…

    I'm on my iPhone but you have a point we've become so meta sarcastic that in all honesty I meant 'kudos for itemizing all your grievances so clearly and succinctly' and it came off…

    I appreciate the civility of your comment. My theory is that our technologies have made us weak and plunged us into a new dark age and we don't even know it yet. I'd like to believ…

    Not one person in this thread is going to say "how to dress" that's how far we've come as a civilization.
