Resentment

Women like poor, poor Jessica down there are resentful and affronted because they can’t date the 6’4″ billionaire with a private jet. Or when they do, it turns into a short fling and they do not commit. This is a female form of inceldom. And it’s not pretty.

Meanwhile, many men are resentful that no women anywhere are interested in them at all.

I think there’s a slight difference there.

I Ran, I Ran So Far Away

Ah, one of those “feminist” dipshits who wants to invert the sexual double standards instead of just going for equality. Also, she’s just upset that women are no longer 100% of the time the sexual gatekeepers.

So, “feminism for thee but not for me.” Gotcha.

I have some ideas about why she’s single at 39…because any sane man would stay far, far, so very far away from whatever is going on there. You know there’d be a false rape accusation at the minimum in your near future, if not worse.

And you also know here that “mistreated other women” means that these men were with women who were not her — more attractive ones. Of course.

CCC

Agreed with all of this. That Carney speech was cornpone catastrophic crapola. It’s spineless and it’s daft. “Embrace decline and failure” isn’t the brilliant rhetorical and managerial masterstroke the intelligentsia is portraying it as. I guess they must be this way, though. The alternative is actually doing something substantive: undertaking large projects; reversing decline; declaring the West worth fighting for.

And you know none of that is going to happen. So you get that milquetoast garbage from Carney and ilk.

Safety Obsession

I started going out alone when I was seven, though I wasn’t allowed to roam that far. This was considered completely normal at the time, though in other ways my parents were neglectful. By the time I was around 9, though, I could go wherever I wanted. All the other kids I knew were the same.

We really have chosen the path of harming entire generations for no known reason.

Want To Admit

AI reaches the threshold of average human creativity.

That’s a pretty low bar, to be fair. The average human is nothing special in this or any other area. But still it is quite an achievement and AI will only improve.

The best AIs now can surpass 95%+ of the juniors I’ve ever worked with, and about half of the mid-tier folks. That’s substantial and is going to change the job market and society more than most people now realize or want to admit.

The left’s inane screeching about it won’t change that, nor will the right’s attempt to strangle the future in other ways.

We built systems that reward acceleration, then act surprised when everything feels rushed, shallow, and slightly manic.

Just a QQ

A phrase at work that instantly tells you things are about to get messy.

“Can I ask a quick question?” This is always, always a huge project. In IT, it’s never a “quick question.” Not once have I seen it be quick. Not a single damn time.

One of the “quick questions” I got in my current job turned into a project that is still rolling on eight months later. The person estimated it’d take five minutes. This is extremely common in my field.

In another role I got a “quick question” that transformed into a multi-year project and one firing. I think this happens because nearly all of the time managers and regular users have zero idea the complexity involved in anything, don’t do any research beforehand, and have no idea at all what they are asking for.

And then IT gets cursed with “quick question” poorly-scoped projects and tasks.

Tabs On

I need a browser that doesn’t tap out when it has only a measly few thousand tabs open.

My computer now is 10 million times faster than the one I used in 1980. So it should be able to open as many tabs as I want.

I will accept no reasoning, objections, or complaints; these are my demands.
