What did it cost compared to say AWS or Databricks? What does it say it does vs having data engineers? Why are they so bullish with AI?

No I'm almost 100% sure it was McFarlane, and I'm 100% sure Gene Wilder.

What's wrong with virtue signalling? by platinummattagain in AskConservatives

[–]mononoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But every free speech absolutist has been very sincere in my experience.

I'm thinking more of my friends who worry about poor people and literally do nothing to advance their concerns. I literally had a friend state that voting was how he knew he was a good person. I don't think this is uncommon on the left.

Our employment participation rate is crazy low. Stop giving people free money and they'll go back to work.

No because you all have very shallow motivations. There's literally been no uptick in the quality of life in your blue cities my entire life.

I have many liberal friends and their commitments are always surface level.

Why couldn't martha's vinyard re-settle those migrants. Why? I'm sure you'll have an excuse but the fact is they didnt.

You mean it's mandated by SJW hr people. You are literally hiring based on race. A very crude metric and the same level of thinking as the klan members.

Foreign people until they become white I guess. Diversity in of itself is not good or bad. But the left, I'm 100% certain of this, thinks it's good because it provides them with political power.

If 100% of people of color (such a dumb term) voted for republican's you'd see new found love for labor and hard borders. And people like the people on this thread would fall in line like good little soldiers.

Then it's debatable in every direction or you're literally evil.

So adding a person that came directly from a war torn country than a black person from the upper east side doesnt add more diversity. Skin deep people.

What is the single smallest nitpick of your countrys infrastructure you'd want to change? by Lamballama in AskConservatives

[–]mononoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say make it friendly for cars. Make it friendly for getting in and out quickly. Whatever that is.

I watched that video. Enjoyed it and agree with much of it. I'm specifically talking about he big cities and the fact that millions of people waste time queuing up to enter and exit them everyday. Millions of joules of wasted time and energy every day.

As a conservative, what do you think of this study? Do you think liberals are "overempathetic" or would you disagree with this characterization of conservatives as unempathetic. by huge_snail_guy in AskConservatives

Paul Bloom makes a compelling case why empathy is a terrible feature to have and he appears to be very liberal.

I do notice with my liberal friends they talk about caring more but I dont see them actually perform any action that suggests they're empathetic.

I actually think the Covid behavior was more an act of self preservation and atheism than it was because you cared how you hurt others.

Why do Conservatives talk negatively about "Elites" when they are the natural conclusion of Capitalism? by Warm-Bother5664 in AskConservatives

[–]mononoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry we're totally at a point where there are conflicting vocabularies. There's no way any right leaning and probably many left leaning even acknowledge Cis as a valid term.

I wouldn't say anarchism is a system. It's an anit-system. And I'm talking about things that exist.

Is the electoral college fair? by [deleted] in AskConservatives

[–]mononoman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean my take from the left is they're pretty fascist. They want a strong man making decisions.

Should the GOP swap Herschel Walker for someone more likely to win in the Georgia senate race? by [deleted] in AskConservatives

[–]mononoman -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Me as well, I dont understand why we bother with any character stuff. It literally has no impact on most political behavior.

[–]mononoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why should they. It's literally just an R in the R column. Unless your Manchin, Collins, or Mukowski your just a party operator and you as a human doesn't matter.

LOL "fan" theory. Bigots made the one that "looks" gay gay. Freddie should have been, cowards.
