Just thinking about the day-to-day elevated stress that this would generate makes me glad I will never live in a place like that. It is weird to read people trying to downplay it as if it is nothing.

The "not caring" aspect has been a problem in the US for a long time.

Hilariously so. But really what it means is that javascript eats the whole world (FE&BE) which, personally, I do not enjoy myself.

There is something about the 'use server' declaration that just bothers me. I dunno.

When they get around to making a $30K model, I definitely look forward to getting one.
Of all people to loose faith it would be Luke? Riiiight.

And Han and Leia just have to be divorced? Ok.

And their son just has to be evil. ... Ok.

I didn't even bother watching the last film so I don't know if Kylo has his own fun little redemption arc too or not, but no thank you.

It was 100% trained to be that way.
There is no way that this was unexpected. That is almost as funny a take as the results their "AI" is producing.
On the one hand it is stupid because the policies driving this are, let us say, "biased", but on the other hand it is hilarious to actually see the results of these policies in action!
It seems to me that trying "really hard" isn't a good thing though.
It should generate the image I ask for. As seen, if it explicitly refuses to generate images of white people and blathers on about problematic this-and-that as its "justification", there is a deep issue at hand.
If the solution to concerts is that you have to protect your ears yourself then I would argue that the concerts themselves should be held accountable.

I have tinnitus and it SUCKS. The people who threw the outdoor music festivals I went to in my 20s should be brought to trial...

And when you consider they end with the pitch "If you also enjoy collaborating with relentlessly curious people, we are hiring!"

What is effectively guessing which is what this article entails - without knowing the actual cause - hardly qualifies one as "relentlessly curious".

Personally I deeply dislike the random walk towards insanity that modern dev takes with the constant churn and layers of fixes upon fixes - react state is no good! use redux! use this! use that! And before you know it knowing what is actually going on becomes nearly impossible!

They were quite commonly referred to as riots so it is weird to act like that mischaracterized what happened.

Also Duke: used the word blacklist! WOOPS. The way they include the image of their ticket to not renew - in their new ticketing system no less - reflects their true seething hatred for Basecamp regardless of how cultured they attempt to be in their article.

Someday we will be able to recognize that the left now has its own set of unachievable religious principles just as the right does!
