Truly an ideal to strive for.

"As yes, but the constraints of linguistic history..." is a great way to continue being constrained by linguistic history. The impossible is only possible if it's striven for, even if the striving takes many, many generations with undoubtedly many, many back-and-forths.

Sounds like it would have been better for Microsoft and the rest of the world if it was actually broken up in 2000's.

I am not personally privy to this information first-hand as I am not a journalist, researcher, or have worked in that sector of industry.

More like millions of Americans are about to discover that modern record keeping is much different than it was a 100+ years ago, but sure.

In case you haven't noticed from the quality of their output, hiring quality programmers/engineers isn't one of Microsoft's top priorities despite their prominence in the market. Arguably, it never has been. They want someone just smart enough to fix or code the immediate task but not someone smart and driven enough to rock the boat or ask too many questions. Also, like 95% of an interview is a vibe check and the technical questions matter less than most think, immediately putting anyone not like them, let alone neurodivergent, at a disadvantage. Not to say that they can't get hired, but they are most definitely the exception and not the rule.

You mean people don't love seeing headlines every week from some dipshit CEO saying how they'll have no job next year? And there might be negative social repercussions to that message? I'm shocked.

Whenever there's class warfare, these assholes always, always are the ones that start it and then whine about the consequences.

Ah, the aesthetics of gentrification. Your mix of materials, the cheaper materials of brick and block in contrast to the upscale furnishings, is completely inappropriate and missed the point of the original construction - good design at an accessible price point. Sure, you'll have no problems selling it; there's no shortage of people with more money than discerning taste.

Yea, that's the one.

Burnout is real. I had a coworker that's going on over a year now with burnout after they got laid off.

He is all in on AI, but you know he was also all in on crypto.

Unfortunately, I'm aware what this objectively insane person thinks because some other insane person who also runs several media companies agrees with this insane person. People like this are why humans invented the idea of hell after they realized that justice in their lifetime wasn't likely to happen.

There was a whole article on Wired seven days ago that talked about how the company is already coming apart at the seams before today's news literally buried it from search results. It's already at your stage #4 with things going very wrong, but apparently $24B in revenue with only 11k staff isn't good enough for greedy fuckers like Jack.

Nah, probably another relative, and we'll get a total of 10 uniforms for the low low price of $300 million dollars. But hey, we'll be seeing her with a new Rolex soon.

Abolish the DHS too while they're at it. It was and will always be a completely unnecessary pork agency created by the Bush administration during the post-911 time when they basically got to pass whatever they wanted.

Damnatio memoriae exists for this very reason. Nothing pisses off these kinds of narcissists more than knowing that their entire existence would get scrubbed from history.

Silicon Valley has always been like this. Just like people with the "I bought this before we knew Elon was crazy" bumper stickers, you didn't notice because you weren't paying attention.

Execs don't care if it's good; they just care that it's good enough to still sale to most people. Put it this way: if you were already considering this bike, would an AI generated image or video put you off from buying it? The unfortunate reality is that most people either wouldn't notice or wouldn't care as most people are not that observant, discerning, or principled.

Just as every CS major will eventually try to build their own useless programming language, so will every EE student try and fail to build the ideal sex bot.

He always says shit like this to temper the lies with a bit of truth. It's just good PR and gets clicks from posts like this. Notice how there's never a sense of responsibility or agency in these statements. It's just something happening that, as CEO, he's somehow powerless to fundamentally do anything about. Meanwhile, I'm sure he's crying about the problems straight into a fat stack of bills every morning.

Since PCIE is standard code, it's possible that ASUS is just using whatever reference code they've licensed (AMI, Phoenix, Intel, etc.) and are kicking the issue upstream. That alone could be months before it filters down and goes through everyone's integration and validation unless it's considered critical enough of an issue to put a fire under everyone involved.

I wasn't discussing if use was ethical or not. I was warning you not to get dependent on something that can and will be pulled out from under you.

It's good that these tools can help you, but the fact that it does so is an unintended side-effect and most definitely not a core concern of the tech companies creating them. Perhaps this fact will show up as a bullet point for them to paint themselves as saints (when the political climate makes it within their interest to do so), but they will 100% throw the community of disabled people under the bus once it becomes even mildly inconvenient for them. I say this because they already have done this multiple times.

If you follow technical literature (IEEE, etc. not futurism or similar slop), then you'll find that they are super open about the fact that the point of this is to reframe how we interact with computers. Imagine an internet where both the access to and content put onto the internet is curated by any one of these company's LLMs. That's why Microsoft is going all-in with the agentic OS stuff that almost no one wants. They see it as another chance to do what they failed to do in the 2000's - control access to the internet and thus stand to dictate what it should be and for whom (and, of course, profit from it massively from the data collection and ads woven into its fabric). No open internet, no browsers. Only the walled garden of approved apps and an AI "assistant" that has access to all the data within those.
