Yes, I’ll stop commenting here entirely. DanG, please delete my account.

Last time I got mod-bonked here, it was over calling Zuck “amoral.” Then all the Cambridge Analytica, Russian ops and boosting right-wing propaganda scandals came out.

I’m positing Elon is an obvious con man. Y’all will get there too 🫡

He bought a physics diploma with a large donation years after dropping out.

He can regurg briefings, look again at what he says in anything you’re an expert in. E.g. software: he’s a total fraud.

Elon’s hourly clown show? What are you watching?

Oh yes, also CTO Twitter, chief neuroscientist Neuralink, chief researcher OpenAI, a regular Renaissance man. Never studied STEM.

>he knows what he is talking about when it comes to rockets

At a surface level. If you ever drill down on his shallow tech understanding, he sputters, kicks you out or flees.

> Musk’s strengths have always been in building things

*Hyping things, pumping stock, raising $.

Agree Win7 was the last usable. Ubuntu is great / fast but the UX feels like bad Mac clone, 5 years later.

Or, he’s as incompetent as he looks.

Returning escaped slaves was in the constitution itself (fugitive slave clause).

Founders’ intent is pretty irrelevant to today’s problems. They ran forced labor plantations, hadn’t mastered electricity or germ theory of disease, and the biggest city was ~30K people.

1 person = 1 vote, get rid of all the rural planter rigs.

T•••• should've been arrested in the hours after the Capitol attack, like Brazil did with its coup attempt.

"some sort of technically-illegal" is a funny way to describe a combined lawfare coup / violent coup attempt.

States are artificial, national elections should be ranked choice, or at worst simple majority vote.

Electoral college was a sop to slavers and should be deleted. It doesn't empower small states, it empowers large states which happen to be swing states.

One person should = one vote, absurd that Wyoming gets 70× the Senate influence with the population of Modesto.

"nearly half" — T•••• controls ~a quarter of the GOP, which is ~a third of US voters, so < 10% of US electorate.

Criminal impunity for political elites backstops their entire racket: laundering hard bribes into soft, insider trading and so on. They've blocked T•••• prosecution for things like the coup because federal law enforcement report to them, and they're wedded to the immunity. Only the most egregious get prosecuted, e.g. the Congressman insider-trading on the phone in the background of a public T•••• event.

Yes. Dems were never going to, for example, indict Trump on selling US policy to the Saudis, that’s a key political-racket revenue source.

The opposite — the US constitution is more like a slaver bill of rights, rife with plantation oligarch backdoors. The checks and balances are akin to NBA owners negotiating how not to ruin each other. Those rights originally were only extended to white men formally, and only rich white men in effect.

Also lagging in ML, good point

Has no CS background, studied material sci → consulting → Google PM

Prompt 2: It should not crash

Windows getting into adware was like the raptor escaping the electrified fence

“… with that salt pond stink”

They were already under competitive pressure. I bought a candy bar Sony phone with built-in MP3 player app before the iPhone.

Googleplex → Google Parc

This approach is better for remix beat-matching than as new song recs, IMO.
