For the love of all that is holy, someone put her on a rocket so she can see for herself.

And then forget how to land the fucking thing.

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?

Yes, because nothing says Nottingham more than a mythical figure purportedly from Leicestershire…

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

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

Choo choo, I’m a train!

This man is a beacon of humanity. The world needs (a lot) more leaders like him

Nope. Because once you normalize tipping, you then start having conversations about how much. Before you know it, you the tipper are paying for peoples wage increases.

I’d rather pay more at the register and see people make a better working wage.

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.

Wait until she realizes what colored skin Mrs Vance has…

Just let it go… Manny Jacinto was the only interesting character, and the concept that “Sith == Freedom to choose” was what made it so. Sadly, they didn’t really do anything with it

Disney/Star Wars needs to stop with all this “foundling is special and can save the universe” crap. we’ve seen it literally hundreds of times.

The No-sign up, no ads thing is a bit of a stretch. Yes, you don’t have to sign in, but everything you tap seems to lead to a new ad being shown.

Enshittification ensues

The web. It was good while it lasted.

While congrats are very much in order here, am I the only one cynically wondering if the word “Out” in the headline is doing a lot of heavy lifting?

Older white male here, and I fully endorse this. We just need to find one first…
