Who doesn’t love a Dirtyburger?

Not to worry. I’m not so naive as to think that is how it will actually play out.

I’m sure like most things under capitalism, smaller companies will be liable, but we’ll bail out the big guys!

Given the high costs of AI, isn’t it reasonable to assume that whomever stands to make a profit is equally liable for it’s outcomes?

I feel the indecision is really just “I’m not sure if I am ready to identify as a 21st century Nazi or not just yet”

Let’s guess which five percent don’t get an increase…

Same. I had a brief pause where I wondered what I was missing all these years as an atheist

I know it’s not, but it looks like the Gardner “expressway” in Downtown Toronto, pretty much any time of day.

Fat lot of good that will do… Last time I was near a UK hospital (Lincoln) the entrance was crowded with smokers. Right underneath the “no smoking” signs. There wasn’t even anyone vaping

Longer wait times, no, but less episodes is definitely better. More than 10 episodes per seasons and you’ll get cruft and filler in there.

Choo choo, I’m a train!

Oh, come on. He’s hilarious to watch so you can play bullshit bingo

Autodefenestration is one of my faves. The act of throwing yourself out of a window.

If you’re throwing someone or something out, then it’s just plain defenestration

Only if you agree to stop calling them Hashtags and use their more-correct name of Octothorpes

This is one of the very rare occasions I believe what he’s saying…

Good point. But, while a dev says “My bad” and fixes the bug, a politician just shrugs and often doubles down.

At the very least, the Dev will explain to the team why a bug happened so that others don’t repeat the mistake, but a politician won’t address any of the three scenarios you identified.

I fear this metaphor is stretching to breaking point, but the central point remains that it should not be acceptable for a politician to lie, yet somehow here we are…

Except bugs are usually unintentional and, with a good team, found and fixed before they cause any harm - usually before they’re public.

The equivalence would be non-political fact checkers and public apologies and/or policy changes. The media has given up on the first (for the most part) possibly becase politicians just ignore the second.

Politicians stock-in-trade is information. This is their work product.

I am a software developer. If I turn in software that doesn’t work. I get fired.

JD Vance, and all other politicians who lie should also be fired for not doing their jobs.

This is the world I want to live in.

Bravo. Well played.

Came here to ask the same. No idea why this is a shitpost

100% agree with this. Just started reading Black Pill by Elle Reeve and it says much the same
