Constantly surprised by how many users here still don't understand what an LLM is.
> mental illness and has no place in government
People with mental illnesses should be in government though, this is a terrible argument.
> teachers have limited bandwidth
Hire more?
You can't drink it once it's gone through a bunch of mouldy pipes, no.
Good writing shouldn't just be how you talk out loud.
> come together and build them or pay for them to be built
That's just taxes!
It's not a novel opinion but I'm tired of things being fucked all the time.
Millions of people died and the main takeaway for the US seems to be giving up vaccines and cutting programs that would mitigate future disasters.
Not sure how you've come to that conclusion.
Of course there is. The person I'm responding to is still rich though.
I first encountered cyberdecks a while ago and thought they were a fun idea for hacking about but more recently I've started seeing videos of beginners making them by cramming raspberry pis into random cases salvaged from second hand shops.
It's been really cool to see people creating hardware without worrying about the usual limitations of soldering or 3d printing. Some have more technical ability than others and have salvaged screens or other bits from random electronics.
It feels like a rediscovery of hacker ethos without the slightly toxic baggage of maker culture.
Seems like that's just for protesters.

Whew! Glad that's sorted.
Okay well we have those already and it hasn't really changed anything.
Because it's only an option if you're rich and most of us aren't rich.
> I get the feeling that it's not worth looking at because it was probably made using LLMs
This is the big one for me. Small toy website someone has made as a passion project used to be the big draw of HN for me but now I just a assume it's a vibe-coded mess that'll 404 in 7 months.
> If I had fewer orders, I would work more to increase the quality of my product
Really? Because most of the time what you see is huge layoffs and gutting the company's assets.
> Workers ultimately have a job because they are useful to managemen
Workers have a job because their labour produces value

> sloppy thinking and sloppy arguments
If you think this is the result it's probably just because you're not used to discussing political theory. Within academic spaces these discussions are very well developed and nuanced. HN people like yourself aren't very used to being left behind but there are experts that understand what you don't.
That's not a reliable source.
> one to do the work and submit PRs to your repo
Have we not seen loads of examples of terrible AI generated RPs every week on this site?
I don't think the problem was a lack of Elon Musk's involvement.
Polling seems to suggest you're wrong.
I guess I was right when people were telling me "you can't call everything you don't like fascism"
