One more, I am begging English commentators and journalists to remember what the UK did in Northern Ireland.

Of course what's occurring in the US could happen in the UK! It already fecking did.

Yeah man, the free market is definately going to work this time, I promise. It'll keep AI companies and the juggernaut of capital in check, because you see all that free market power is equitably spread across... checks notes... the holders of capital??!? oh nooooeeeee

the more I learn about LLMs, agents and MCPs the more my brain asks “why tho?”

more knowledge of these tools increases the disdain because after billions and billions of investment, at most we’re looking at barely acceptable mediocrity and a dangerous abuse vectors. the quality doesn’t warrant it

it’s very clear to me that the people that make this argument are the ones who in fact, don’t understand it
we're not doing "people who criticise genAI don't understand it and are ignoring its utility" any more. get better material

Hearing these 3 words:

I ask this every now and then and I’ve yet to get a good answer.

How long does it take for people to realize they’re on the wrong side of history?

Our collective task is not to save tech but to save us, our world.

The resonant computing manifesto is too focused on means and not on ends. And that's basically the core issue. The belief in technological determinism.

I think a lot of "learn to code" people thought high salaries for programmers were a permanent feature of the world rather than the result of unusual circumstances around supply and demand in the labor market. Over last 20 years, CS went from a niche college major to the most popular major in the US

The effortless shift in discourse from people insisting that anything that isn't a white statue of a dead roman dude isn't art like 3 years ago to demanding that they be treated as visionary artists for typing" x-men mystique big boobs she's my girlfriend" into a prompt window

My big problem with this argument isn't that it's not true or that it's pragmatic. It is that we frame _rights_ that every human being has as up for debate, as something that needs to work for business.

"But DEI is good for businesses, diverse teams are more productive, don't you see?"

That's not a humane or progressive argument. "Look you can extract more if you do this" is fucking busines advice. That's McKinsey shit and has no place here.

not to be all chomsky, but the thing about uk political correspondents, is that there's a selection pressure at work to remove anyone with the faintest ability from the role

I think people who are concerned about the social and political "consequences" of Michelle Obama skipping the inauguration don't know enough working class families and where this ranks on their list of concerns.

When you start concating strings like this you enter the world of needing to write a string parser on the other end, and most of you can’t do that well or at all

No. Stop. Prove that `application` cannot contain a colon. I have been down this road too many times
