A recision is when your neighbors lose their jobs
A depression is when you lose yours.


Seems like I touched a nerve


Going to gouge all the midstream businesses in the long run. Hardware retailers, PC assemblers, all those little companies selling custom cases and overclock kits and fancy cooling appliances.
The lack of cheap but crucial components will have some ugly coat tails for the rest of the industry.


I’ve heard “unrecoverable” for decades. I don’t see unsolvable problems, I see intractable people.



Protestors burned alive in their APC by the nefarious CCP Street Clothes division


the world of international relations established after the second world war crashed to a halt.
I would argue COVID did more damage to international trade, travel, and diplomacy than any '25 US foreign policy.
The pandemic era quarantines/economic contractions and their reactionary backlash polarized nations along the axis of preserving life versus growing the economy.
Modern Trumpism lives downstream of that crisis.


Jokes on that bird. Those lizards are poisonous


It doesn’t matter. Folks see a foreign country doing foreign things foreign-ly, rather than toeing the NATO line, and they’re evil incarnate.
Meanwhile, NATO allies - from the Brits to the Saudis to the insanely corrupt Philippian government - go fully under the radar of liberals.
China’s biggest crime right now is their success. They aren’t being crippled by sanctions like Cuba, gunned down like Venezuela, or systematically genocided like Palatine. So they must be doing the most nightmarish things imaginable to their people - and to the rest of the world - in order to no-sell American foreign policy.


Too bad China kills good people.
He wasn’t killed, he was court marshalled and released five years later. He died in '21 at the ripe old age of 85


The US media was heavy handed in reporting the Federal response but deathly quiet reporting the mob violence and killing perpetrated by the rioters.
Talking about Tianeman while fixating on Tank Man is a bit like only referring to J6 by holding up photos of Ashli Babbitt taken the day before. Or reporting on the LA Riots exclusively from the perspective of the Roof Koreans. Or holding up photos of Iranian girls in swimsuits any time someone mentions the '79 revolution. Or quoting Elon Musk on White Genocide In South Africa. Or doing the “Haitians are eating the dogs and cats” line to explain our modern immigration policies.
It’s the same right wing propaganda liberals seem to recognize in their own backwards, but refuse to accept could have been applied to poison them against another country’s people.


I’ve been told by users that it didn’t happen
Don’t be shy. Name some names.


I’m hard pressed to name a nominee that wasn’t made with love. And it seems weird to insist a game as lauded as E33 needs another awards show genuflection to reaffirm it’s status.


Europe is about the call for the end of Trump
I thought they were about to hand the UK, France, Germany, and Sweden to fascist parties over the next three years


This goes higher on the chain than Putin


Humans caused ALL of this!
A handful of humans with deep roots in the financial sector and the government contracting space.
AI popping won’t change this. These losers will still be in charge in every way that matters.


Does this mean we will finally stop seeing people post “Release The Epstein Files”? Or is that still too hot a meme to drop?


I wonder who spends more time behind bars? Russell Brand or Greta Thunberg?


AI is more likely to generate code that’s hard to follow and therefore harder to check.
Sure. It’s making the errors faster and at a far higher volume than any team of humans could do in twice the time. The technology behind inference is literally an iterative process of turning gibberish into something that resembles human text. So its sort of a speed run from baby babble into college level software design by trial, evaluation, and correction over and over and over again.
But because the baseline comparison code is, itself, full of errors, the estimation you get at the end of the process is going to be scattering errant semicolons (and far more esoteric coding errors) through the body of the program at a frequency equivalent to humans making similar errors over a much longer timeline.
Roman Pagans were famously awful for women’s rights. And the New Atheist movement is full of sex pests on both sides of the Atlantic.
