  • I think there is a difference. Because software is so flexible and quick to build, it’s orders of magnitude easier to build something known and understood.

    A promising startup with its systems in a knot, but their initial team is still on retainer? Brains can be picked, abstraction boundaries placed, surgical rewrites deployed. Despite the mess, they still understand it, and development can expand.

    It remains to be seen if AI-generated code is recoverable, if any existing strategies can be applied so humans can contribute, or if the company is forever beholden to AI providers to release a better AI to manage/improve what they’ve already got.


  • people think im stupid all the time so what can i say or do in my posts so that when people get mad or call me names or call me stupid i can just say hey it was satire that way i dont look stupid thats pretty smart right heres an example for you for example i talked about how minion butts …

    1. Satiric jokes tend to be clever and are to be taken lightly/not seriously. Toilet humor and being offensive/getting offended is the opposite. Try some self-deprecating humor first.
    2. write english good because youre post will sound clearer you know with good english than for example bad english since you really cant have sentences that run on forever with no commas and no structure it sounds really not smart like a word salad or accident
    3. Satire and surrealism swiftly subvert societal standards, systematically suggesting subtle surprises. Setup serves as the stage, securing the space for subversion – strategically shifting the spectator’s sense, so as to swiftly shatter their expectations.

    (I’m bad at jokes, so just wanted to make sure my S was obvious enough)





  • Distributing power across a group of communities over the same topic (e.g. like seats in a congress/parliament) is a nice thought.

    However, my second thought was how vulnerable that is in a fediverse. To continue the analogy, an adversary could create new states (server/communities) of arbitrary population (accounts) at will.





  • In recreational climbing, skin calluses and surface abrasion aren’t usually much of a concern compared to tendon health. Skin heals light damage quite easily.

    However, it’s not uncommon for a new (or experienced) climber to develop their muscles beyond what their own tendons can take. Since it takes tendons so long to strengthen, it’s common to need managing the risk of finger pulley tendon injuries in climbing.

    Also, I do not know how these nuances apply in your context of your medical condition.



  • In a sense, money represents all the future goods and services it can buy, and those goods and services ultimately resolve down to someone’s time and effort. Money was conceived as a formalization of IOU’s, after all.

    So it’s similar to asking whether there’s a limit to how much time and effort from (i.e. influence over) others one would want.
