Once you go up the first step of a ladder, the second step is now easier. It's a shifting of the Overton window. You can't enact full surveillance in one move - no-one would accept…

We're not talking about standard code here. It's totally reasonable to change the meaning depending on context.

Dystopian nightmares are built from tiny "oh, that's not too bad, just a little step further. Not much different from what we already have"

Every incentive is there. It benefits the company to take advantage of these people's visa restrictions. The capacity is there to do it without much risk. The only saving grace wou…

you'd have to be pretty naive to think it wasn't common

remember moltbook?

knowing what I know about social media there's a 75% chance this story didn't even happen

And thus they end up paying even more for badly engineered code

Right. The big misconception is that really good programmers just write code at 10x the speed of bad ones. Nope, the complete opposite in fact.

The most important result of quality in software is that it's faster to produce and cheaper. How are people defining quality? We're not building tables with the finest wood. Low qu…

My hunch is that the difficulty has moved, not reduced in practice. We make one layer easier and then another mountain lies at the layer above, just as hard.

I've watched dozens of people try to learn to code and fail, some definitely not for a lack of trying. Of those that did learn, only a fraction had the IQ or passion to be genuinel…

thats where the water comes in! it really is the solution in 99% of cases. The vast majority of people get nowhere near enough fiber

you need more fiber and/or water

next gen gaming consoles are going to be at or over $1k. Honestly I think they're dead in the water in these conditions

from what I understood it, at least originally, was used to mean monetary inflation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monetary_inflation

It's not hard.. unless you're also expected to know, and be learning 100,000 other things at the same time.

> lower taxation rates eh.. many western countries have comparable taxation rates. That's not true. Regardless it would be nice to have the choice to work 75% the hours for 75% pay…

It's easy if you're employed by a reasonable company. Healthcare being so tied to your employer is so anti-labor it's unbelievable.

Is your ad hominem attack any better?

There's a good site for this: https://www.doesitplay.org/ Xbox is the worst about having a dependency on the internet to play your physical media.

Most physical games currently are fully playable offline: https://www.doesitplay.org/ What would stop me from playing it, outside of the hardware dying?

Oh with that I wasn't arguing the blog wasn't AI. I'm sure it is. My point there is that stating that any Pangram settles anything is a huge mark against the author's credibility

I'm now suspicious this author (had AI) built the blog they're referencing just so they could make claims against OpenAI.

> When I ran the message through Pangram, an AI content detector that credibly claims a near-zero false-positive rate, the email came back as “fully AI-generated.” Uh huh.. AI cont…
