15,000 people waiting for hours, in the rain, to receive free food? Wow!!!

I do computer programming, mostly on stuff the ai coding tools totally fail at; when I saw how much these same tools are pushed by large companies, I felt contempt .

That, and I studied neural networks in grad school, quite a few years ago. The current AI stuff do not awe me

I shall prove my humanity by mildly insulting anyone who reads this.

Basically this. Most people are decent enough, that is they are not trying to burn down the world. Many, including me, have unclear ideas about what is happening. Often, people use opposing words and history to really mean the same goals.

But it’s exhausting figuring it out for more than friends and people in my echo groups. So I don’t usually try. They have to be worth it to me.

That said, this is for the mental stuff. When it comes to political actions that need to be done now, and cannot wait, things are different. There is a time crunch then. And it’s not about tolerance , but results.

The left a centralist who is not an obvious crook is about to take power (in a city).

Revolution, of any kind, or even a restricted series of change cannot be organized through the internet.

All wait on significant shifts about how most American communities interact.

It may be a while

Older people can get shut in, and be inactive, far more often than even a generation ago.

The best time to develop healthy habits is years ago. The next best time is now.

I have a theory that it becomes exponentially harder to change what a county is, the more years that tech develops.

If there is no change in the USA, for the better, in the next two decades, there never will be

Why stop at three? I have fun making up titles for series that run too long.

Heat 5: the Icy Reckoning

Heat 6: a Snowball’s Chance

Revenue is not profit. Im sure he is correct and still loosing more money per day than historically possible for earlier companies. Propped up only by the largest scam in history

Lots of people have motivation, but have no community.

It’s like a car stuck in neutral gear

I’ve been watching this clock for 40 years, also watched it get enshitified the last 20 years.

It has always been a symbol of empire, run by many the same fools who enabled the madness. But the revolving door and who contributes got worse since the 1990s. And it’s just some thing now.

They may be wrong or correct, who am I to know. But not to be relied on, I think

“The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones”

I still remember when many action movies and tv series had the bad guys be Palestinians, or failing that Islamic, or trying to attack Israel.

To have the same producers (most have not retired yet) stick their necks out to humanize Palestinians, or highlight real issues, is simply unrealistic.

Anyway, eagerly waiting for the release of x-men:part 38, attack of the antifa

I think the glorification of the brutality is better than the indifferent platitudes, it’s almost more humanizing

Yes, like a bruise on a person showing up on the skin after an injury

There is nothing militarily nato can do. Even if different countries wanted to help more and actually fielded armies, it would be a stalemate. Only a political solution will work.

On one website we can have 8,000 bot calls in a few minutes looking for vulnerable code.

It’s enough to make some people paranoid, especially when building the front end and backend with hundreds of libraries and their dependencies, all managed by unknown people

Ship building: the USA cannot easily replace sunk or damaged vessels. But China can.
