Not defending them or even Luigi but I would argue a lot of it is the abysmal labour institutions the USA got (lots of union busting, few modern laws against modern exploitation and classical institutions are undermined politically and legally). And the growing class divide in the USA I think is the reason why folks are increasingly seeing violence against the upper class is seen as the only option. Again doesn't mea…

What do you mean by “or even Luigi”?

There is a secret level in Super Mario's bros where you play as Luigi and try to fix Healthcare. Has a boss and everything.

It is a bit scary how people seem to genuinely be OK with violence (see this reddit thread [0]). Is just me or does it feel like the overall "temperature" has gone up. [0] https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1shugf8/firebomb_t...

People are okay with violence when democratic means (if first past the post even counts) do not solve their problems.

people are never OK with violence against human beings.

Have you met people?

Unfortunately some people are.

I could see being concerned about food safety; I wouldn't trust an AI recipe to tell me how long/what temperature to cook chicken, and I might not trust someone who uses AI to generate recipes to know either.

Hi! I love to cook! I also use AI to brainstorm recipes sometimes! Wanna try asking Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or even Grok what temperature chicken needs to be cooked to? I just asked Claude: 165°F (74°C) internal temperature. Where does this come from?

That's such pointless evidence.

Let's see what gemini says in response to a more realistic prompt: https://gemini.google.com/share/f0bcbe46c337

Well, look at that. 1.5 lbs of chicken breast in the oven @425 for 10 minutes, and a minute or two of broiling should do the trick.

Unlike all human-written recipes I found, it doesn't give the temperature to cook it to.

People are apathetic at this point. When a large amount of americans can barely afford to live while threatened with replacement while the economy booms on the backs of their claimed obsolescence, they don't care that a billionaire could've gotten hurt, especially when that billionaire is working against their interests.

I mean, it's also scary because I don't think it works. People should demand a new deal and lobby for that. Throwing molotovs doesn't help with that.

Oh yeah!, I forgot that staying silent and complying quietly is way better!! In 1700s they should have used that instead of guillotines.

> The Trump administration explicitly aims to destroy that rule of law. It's not just Trump. Trump and Biden both shredded the rule of law for Israel. I think both parties being captured by a genocidal foreign government has caused mass dissolution with the ability of the US to act within any framework that brings justice.

People don’t lobby, corporations do.

Bitcoin was never actually valuable for the average person except if they got lucky by timing the speculation bubbles right, or if they were buying illegal drugs online. Lots of AI tools already add actual value and they're only getting better. Every software dev I know uses Claude at some level. Whether it will be the next trillion dollar unicorn might be overhype, but in terms of demonstrating its general utility,…

> Every software dev I know uses Claude at some level. here is my leve:, try to get claude to properly perform some boring boilerplate for me until the tokens run out or i get super angry and then do it myself in a rage.

what stack do you work in, and how are you prompting it?
