It had to do with the Chinese being assholes. Context is everything and not always a single thing.

I’m currently in Thailand and saw a couple of arrogant Chinese get ruthlessly beaten by street justice. They had been talking shit about everyone all night and then started being physical. It took seconds for there to be dozens of Thai people beating them worse than I have ever seen someone beaten. It was really bad. I’d be surprised if they lived. By the time the police came both Chinese were completely unconscious on the ground with blood everywhere. Nobody was taken into custody other than the Chinese guys.

When talking with people after it happened they mostly agreed that Chinese people have been the problem causers more than other tourists. There seems to have been a major shift in Chinese culture over the past few years and most of them seem to have a massive superiority complex.

I used to think it was the CCP that made China a bad place but it seems it’s the people as well.

I agree with most of what you said except I don’t expect companies to turn good. They don’t do good or evil, they do profit by whatever means. It’s intrinsic!

I’d like to help build some shit, got any recommendations? I can do the type type beep boop as long as that neural net is left out. Fuck that black box shit. I think it is the real reason for the shit algorithms these days. Which leads me to my next point. I get the exact same results from Kagi as I do from DDG. They are identical >90% of the time. Kagi does provide features that are worth paying for but I want better results, they existed before.

Once upon a time I could search for something incredibly specific and find an obscure forum with the answer. These days all I get, even with Kagi is the same results from SEO optimized garbage to AI generated dribble.

I really do not understand why Kagi is so promoted here. I really have not found it to be any better.

I’d really like it if we stopped blaming the corporation and start blaming the people that make the decisions there and the people that implement those decisions. From the CEO’s to the programmers. Put their names everywhere, show the world who actually ruined it. Google was the best resource humanity had to access information. Now, more often than not, I can not find anything related to my search. The search algorithm they used 20 years ago was better than this new junk.

Could he though? I don’t think he is that smart. He has smart people running his other companies, but he is running the show at twitter. I think this is us seeing him fail when left on his own.

There is a video from CGP Grey titled Humans Need Not Apply that is extremely relevant. It was posted 9 years ago. It’s a great video, I highly recommend everyone check it out.

I think he knows it is a money pit that will never be profitable so is intentionally trying to kill it. It will never make him money only cost him money. He can’t just shut it down without seriously damaging what credibility he has left. Seriously, what are his options to stop this ‘money leak?’

Most of what you typed is reductio ad absurdum and I will not entertain it.

To the part that is not I will say that yes I do apply the same standard to any business or employees that uses their size to to enshittify. It’s called Right Livelihood and if more people lived by it we would not have the current problems with mega corps.

In that situation I would view the person as self serving. Doing something to improve one’s own situation at the expense of others is not conducive to a good society. I care more about the group than one friend in a tough situation. I liken it to the trolly problem.

If that engineer is coding that they should not be appreciated. They are part of the problem. I don’t care about the pay or the status of being a facebook engineer. I really don’t respect any engineer that has worked for any of the FAANG companies. Those fuckers sold out their morals the second they typed the first character of the first line of code while employed there.

I wonder how long until facebook adds it to their surveillance stack.

Roughly, that’s why long distance missions need mid course correction burns.

Yeah, he says n-body problem in the video I linked above. I have no idea why I am saying 2 body problem.

I don’t think that was the way he portrayed it. He made it seem like they really solved the 2 body problem. Scott Manley even made a comment about how grand that was. I really wish I could find the video to better show what I mean.

edit: here is one of him recalling it. https://youtu.be/vu22bFtZgKg?feature=shared&t=2294

I remember Scott Manley asked someone important on the dev team of ksp2 how they approached the 2 body problem. They guy gave a vague answer that they had solved it. If that were true they would have a Nobel Prize but they don’t. So then and there I decided that KSP2 will not get my money. Which sucks because I have put a little over 2000 hours into KSP1.

Bitch, you’re the bad faith commentor here. I have no respect for what you are doing and who you are. Please kill yourself and make the world a slightly better place.

My reason for sharing that was to bring to light that they are commenting in bad faith. It’s not for them, it’s for other people reading.

Your not even American. Why so invested in this thread?

And why have you commented multiple times telling people to start shooting, while at the same time saying that we shouldn’t even talk about it?

I know. :)

I write that not for you but for other people to protect themselves from people like you.
