AI killing the last mean of reliably recording reality will send us back to the ages of story telling, where reality and fiction mix, where cultures decide what's real based on utility.
It looks so real and creates a whole new level of horror. What is reality, what is fiction? Soon it will be impossible to keep it all straight.

@Duderichy there’s literally no downsides to blaming yourself for everything bad that happens to you.

@hyperpriorai makes sense, i guess it's partly a relation to pattern recognition that is common in literature and you can just sort of learn by osmosis.

look at this. they are getting absurdly convincing. the truth stands no chance. utility will win this round.

@eigenrobot working in big tech i learned quickly that if someone talks about their fetish at work i can’t trust them to finish their tasks on time.

@chinesegon if you pay 2200e out of your 4200e rent of rent and utilities you're an eejit. i make double that and pay half of that in one of the more expensive northen european cities.

@LinkofSunshine drew is an absolute legend, the amount of rage he installs in his opposition is admirable.

@teodor_io she said it's a challenging idea in today's economic landscape of rising doubt about the sustainability of gig work, the morality of sex work, and the profitability of investing heavy capital on their combination.

@ovchinnikov that’s not the case and it’s pretty obvious after five minutes in the room with one of these people.

@SwannMarcus89 "i have a bad job so i can't afford all the things i want to buy" .just hurts their ego too much to admit that's about the depth of their political commentary. children.

@zeta_globin lol i wish it worked for me at all in finland. people explicitly ask me do i condone this or that. and if there are drinks involved people completely forget any sense of civility. i have to tell people explicitly “i don’t want to talk about it”.

@AnalyticaCamil1 you are so absolutely wrong in a way only someone who haven't worked with the bureaucratic class directly could be wrong.

"~58% make <3 commits/month"??? motherfuckers what the fuck are you all doing??.
Another way to look at this is counting code commits. While this is a flawed way to measure productivity, it reveals inactivity: ~58% make <3 commits/month, aligning with our metric. The other 42% make trivial changes, like editing one line or character--pretending to work.

@Duderichy @VividVoid_ when it’s obvious it’s obvious and when it isn’t you should lean toward personal responsibility even without full verification because it’s less regrettable in the long run. exceptions exist sure.

@ArmandDoma i was going to say “she’s clearly a teenager” but she volunteered telling us she’s 24. infantile.

@siggibecker @hyperpriorai this is also my impression. the longer you think the worse they become. they are a fruit of intuition, of backroom word processing.
