Moldy junk food even.
Imagine how mad they would get if the chatbot actually told him this. "Woke!"
I'm just sad Hardware wasn't mentioned. (Btw, for anybody who needs content warnings, that movie has a big one for the voyeur janitor).
E: prob more of a cyberpunk/sf movie anyway, even if a few people I knew who watched it were horrified
Yes, which is why i called him a softboiled egg in German. Which means something like coward (at least that is what I always learned, google translate gives 'wimp'). Unless you directly translate it to Dutch then it turns into the Dutch f-slur for gay people. Because we suck.
This was a random insults in various languages derail.
That fucking sucks, esp as you put a lot of time into it.
Also most of us speak a lot of English so it is easier to follow than for example Mandarin.
Walter Bright is a bit of a dick as a maintainer too
Not a huge schock. But this imho also shows a bit of a problem with these kinds of projects and their ownership. Shit will go bad when the owners grow old and refuse to give up ownership. Walter is 65, you dont expect people to keep up with the cutting edge and wider needs of programmers
A libertarian who glamorizes the state as set up by old people in the past. The libertarian to reactionary funnel.
E:
HN: Since you believe in checks and balances, do you believe Trump should be disqualified for running for office, for using violence, intimidation and lies to attempt to change the results of the last election? As a principled libertarian I'm sure the peaceful transfer of power is at the height of your concerns.
WalterBright: I think I'll spare everyone from yet another Trump vs Harris debate.
Weichei!
I really hope Harris wins by a landslide just so all these weird nerds eat shit. If even just one goes "wow I really let myself get swept up into believing trump/musk was great by my echo chamber it would be worth it. But i doubt we will get such self awareness. The various betting prediction markets also then have been wrong (or manipulated) would also be fun.
Considering API access is now I think 40k a month + you pay for usage, prob good you never got into that. So the time doesn't feel wasted.
Horrifying, also it is obvious how much they dont like women. Talking to people you care about shouldn't be a chore
