I got my second Pfizer dose the day before it snowed and then threw out my other arm from shoveling a foot of snow off my driveway, so therefore vaccines are bad for everyone

sure Hans Reiser killed his wife but that’s just 10% of his life’s work, history should judge him on the merits of his bad file system

in retrospect I gotta wonder if the x files and stuff like its black oil mythology did way more to normalize batshit insane conspiratorial thinking than we thought

zo1 45 minutes ago | root | parent | prev | next [–] I'm one of those evil capitalists/ libertarians. But I'd be 100% for us to give everyone housing if and only if we stop incentivizing the unproductive to multiply or letting in the whole world. Sure take care of the suffering, the orphans, the disabled etc. But don't go around paying people to multiply as if they're a cattle herd, it's demeaning and makes people's value trend to zero. After it trends to zero we then turn around and complain how the "capitalists did it".

don’t do (thing I describe in incredibly dehumanizing language), it would be dehumanizing to those people

userbinator 9 hours ago | root | parent | next [–] Not saying I condone it, but seeing how lifeless and sterile (no pun intended...!) most software has become, and how quick people have gotten to take offense at everything, I almost wish "spicy" stuff like this would show up more often (the poster here was commenting on a story about how a malicious actor contributed false Ukrainian translations to Ubuntu 23.10 with antisemitic and otherwise offensive text)

herpdyderp 1 hour ago | parent | prev | next [–] I didn't read it but am still participating. Since I've been aware of this story for quite some time, the fact that it finally happened is all that really matters to me (which the headline covers, assuming it's correct). I probably know all the details already, unless something really unexpected happened.

perihelions 2 hours ago | undown | prev [–] I think it's fine if libraries die out. The pirate libraries are superior in every way, for every class of reader. And they'll only get better over time. A pirate can search 10 million works and seamlessly switch to reading one. How can the Balkanized e-book library model possibly keep up? A pirate can run a local LLM for natural-language queries, and find a semantic needle in a thousand-page haystack; or select a dozen excerpts and present them side-by-side for immediate comparison. How can the clunky system of DRM-locked lending e-book readers compete? Near-future. A personal LLM could track a researcher's progress page by page, and pro-actively recommend reading suggestions for an individual chapter from an individual book from a million-volume library—and instantly display it, highlighting special lines, glossing words, annotating jargon, hyperlinking (other) books, writing explanations in the marginalia, translating languages. Transformative creations. What's the poor schmuck stuck in Andrew Carnegie's library doing? The capability gulf is going to grow unfathomably wider. People who read to learn, to comprehend, to get things done, who care about their childrens' education, will undoubtedly end up choosing the superior tools. The other half is going to become a sad cautionary tale
