News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

FWIW personally fine with Apple MITM the verification process.

USB cables available online from any arbitrary retailer could be so wildly out of spec they burn out gadgets, or include some phone home thing.

Of course technologists will scoff as of course they’re the only people on the planet.

A random teacher in any school across the US has done more for society in real terms than you have in a decade.

You could be part of the open data movement and a researcher in your spare time not stocking grocery store shelves.

Yes I’m suggesting your credentials are worthless. Why do we need full time university researcher role play when millions the world over are “researching” software engineering?

There are far fewer teachers. Sounds like a pay rebalancing given market realities is in order. Coders are everywhere. Minimum wage for them!

How dare we reap privilege on babysitters freeing devops engineers to copy-paste off stackoverflow
Don’t be so binary; just comes off as melodramatic and entitled.

There a lot of people doing shit work so you don’t have to. So yeah, externalization is in part how it works.

Look at you not growing your food while others take on the cause of keeping you fed.

Over paid office workers who do little provide directly to human need but have a lot of currency to spend on imported crap and travel need pick up a shovel or fire up a lawn mower and stop being an externalized agent of a financier and government and just be a community member where they are.

Lizard brains titillated by technology telling them they’re the main character; someone grows food for you! Pathetic enablers of everything they complain about.

World order is what it is not because of government but because the people are lazy and selfish. A whole lot of the real work keeping you alive is not on your todo list.

I tire of propping you up.

You all are lost to a fake world of finance and corporate propaganda. I hope it comes crashing down on those ill prepared to care for themselves.

Enablers, just like in the US, are complicit.

People will say whatever the status quo says or they’ll be booted off the island.

All that’s been proven is we can apply patterns of discovery well defined by info theorists a century ago to electron state in a machine.

We’ve hardly upended immutable law established by physical experiment. Discovery of human ability to capture natures energy in its machines is also not so new; trebuchets and arrows leveraged gravity.

Only 14% of the adult public has more than a bachelors. Religion proved it is not that hard to convince the majority in titillating nonsense.

Individually none of the specific discoveries that go into SpaceX or Google were invented there. Iterating on well known ideas with well known technology is what humans do. It’s fascinating and interesting.

The figurative gibberish about a minority is to serve nation state propaganda about how amazing it is here. But inside the gulag we all defer to the minority needed to sell the illusion.
