That set us back in many important ways by 50-75 years, and made climate change far worse than it otherwise needed to be. If we’d gone full nuke like France in 1970, we would’ve probably avoided 0.5ยฐC of warming at least. Perhaps a lot more.

Anyone who thinks AI is not boosting productivity: LOL.
Just as economists did with computers in general, they misdefined productivity gains, mismeasured them as well, and then declared this was not happening. A nice job (lying incessantly) if you can get it.
This is what winning looks like to idiots like Ian Welsh and his fellow Putin-worshippers.
I think, largely, that is true. This weird-ass belief is what’s behind the, “If you can’t stand a bit of sexual assault or being set on fire on the subway, you’re not a good person!” clownery.
“Open borders” was always about destruction — of America, the West, etc. — and never about helping anyone. As with the right, the liberals/left also do not give a single fuck about immigrants or refugees. They just hope the invaders destroy their host countries. That’s all. This is one of the reasons they wish to let the worst of them in rather than higher-quality immigrants.
That’s fun. They’re all great — but that drummer is amazing, though her style isn’t really very shoegaze-y.
A solid pop song. It feels like stuff you’d hear on the B-side of some obscure girl group’s sophomore album in 1988. And I mean that in a complimentary way, to be clear.
Eventually, I will go with something like this when all-SSD NASes become practical for home use.
25Gbs NICs are fairly affordable now, specially if you buy old but-still-fine off-lease enterprise gear. I technically already have infra endpoints (NVMe SSDs, etc.) that can push more than 25Gbs across the network if I had the switches and NICs to support doing so, but I just wouldn’t use those capabilities that much. But when I’m tossing 8K video and VR stuff around it’ll be a lot more useful.
And then I’ll show that data the meaning of haste.

This dude is everything that is wrong with software and how it is built now.
Havoc Pennington also really sucks, so it’s no surprise that the poster I linked above seems to adore him. The problem with the approach this post applauds — of removing features because it makes devs’ lives easier1 — is that it ends up creating software for the stupidest people alive. And who wants to use software for the 75-IQ crowd? Certainly not me. Let them have their own drool-based interfaces. I simply need more power than that.
This post was written in 2013. Of course, people like me knew this was the path to taking away as much control as possible from Firefox users. And we were told we were wrong (and I was banned for Reddit for saying what was occurring was in fact occurring), that was not the reason Mozilla was doing the things they were doing, and that we dissenters were crazy.
And of course it is exactly what happened. Just as we knew it would.
It’s wild that I’ve been using computers since 1980. I can’t even really remember a life without them.
Obviously, they’ve changed an enormous amount and are no longer “bicycles for the mind.” But I’ve had some fun along the way, at least. And that matters.
