AI makes it easy to replicate existing software. One can ask a LLM to replicate Photoshop functionalities and, to some extent, it will.

Re:Five Years as a Startup CTO: How, Why, and Was It Worth It? on Saturday October 04, 2025 @05:56PM (#45477074)
The author states that a CTO should ask questions rather then give orders. What kind of questions?
This won't happen in practice because it's incredibly impractical. It would require massive amounts of manpower and be very expensive.
> People eat the organic because its objectively healthier

What makes you say it is objectively healthier?

The post mentions egress (outgoing) traffic being blocked. I assume the machine or VM hosting the container had iptables rules in place to enforce it.

Re:ICJ Orders Israel to Prevent Genocide Without Cease-Fire on Friday January 26, 2024 @07:38PM (#39150988)
Not picking a side or trying to punish anyone, I'm just highlighting that the difference in the number of victims is quite significant. It would be quite a different situation if Israel had killed only sightly more Palestinian civilians than Hamas' did in their attack. Actually, I suspect that this ICJ order would not have occurred, and that there wouldn't be such widespread accusations of genocide.
Re:ICJ Orders Israel to Prevent Genocide Without Cease-Fire on Friday January 26, 2024 @07:15PM (#39150769)
> Hamas killed fewer people than Israel did/is

That's an understatement, Hamas killed less than 1,000 civilians, Israel killed 20,000+
