Communism is when solar powered bus stop roof vibrators. Capitalism can’t even be bothered to power them smdh

Honestly why even play if you can’t play pot of greed

So that means Trump is gonna invest in state owned shipbuilding industry right? Oh no it just means tons of handouts to private companies who will absolutely never actually build a single ship. Most efficient system in the world folks

Everyone thinks this is me in my game for many totally legit reasons but it’s definitely not. I just enjoy making them think it’s me

Have you ever organized for a union? All the best union organizers I know (a lot) just go out there and build community through a leftist lens. They never bring up Marx or Lenin or anything like that they just go out there and help their comrades see how they’re being exploited and how by working together they can be exploited less.

Leftism in the US is going to come from the unions, and not a single member will need to read Lenin to understand it.

I tell people I’m into punk and then put on They Might Be Giants and so far nobody has ever been able to dispute me

China: We have a strategic weakness, we should invest in a solution.

America: WE HAVE NO WEAKNESS. ANYONE WHO SAYS WE DO IS FIRED.

“Why are you yelling at me, I’m not the president!” Yes he actually said this (or something to this effect)

Using AI to do math is the funniest thing to me when Python exists

Comrade mold

GET JK ROWLING NEXT

Love that Isreal can just unilaterally decide to ignore the thing they just agreed to with absolutely zero consequences whatsoever. Rules based international order hard at work again

I work in tech in one of those companies that thinks AI can solve literally everything, and what I hear from leadership on these kinds of reports is that we just haven’t figured out how to measure the success yet. So probably it won’t be the trigger.

The writing is on the wall though, a couple of weeks ago an exec came flying in with this great idea for how we can replace an entire product with AI. Honestly we probably could, it wasn’t a bad idea. The issue came in with the cost…even at the heavily subsidized by venture capital cost, it was going to cost us more per customer than what they pay us, just to do this one small part of the overall workflow, using AI. So sure, we could build out to this AI that does all this cool shit for us (except when it goes off the rails and does it wrong, which definitely happens). But the cost was prohibitive NOW. Imagine how expensive it will be when the real costs start propagating down to the buyers.

What I’ve learned about AI working adjacent to it is that it actually can do quite a lot, as long as you don’t need it to be perfect and as long as the real total cost of using it is actually less than writing real code that does the same thing. Which is not gonna apply to the vast majority of dumb things people are trying to do with AI. That’ll be the real trigger; shit goes off the rails because the AI can’t do it predictably and/or as the true cost starts becoming apparent nobody can afford it anymore. And all the companies who are reliant on it will collapse entirely.

Unironically a bastion of Western values

“Illinois will not let the Trump administration continue on their authoritarian march without resisting,” vowed Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker.

Oh yeah? So what are you gonna do to stop it? You’re the governor. Fucking do something about it words are meaningless

I’m Shid Shidofferson

Posting is praxis because it gives people something to do other than serve capital

just for you

Looks like the tails side already has a big one behind him
