@timrichards he only wants to bre president so he's not in jail.
He was pretty pissed off the first time he was elected and now he's stuck doing a job he hates.

The toddler tantrum we're watching from Trump as Iran tells him 'no', and the rest of the world backs away and says 'you picked this fight, not us' is a really fucking wild way for a lot of the USA to learn the hard way that by and large -
The USA is a *complete cunt* of a country militarily and politically to other countries, and the only reason people *liked* it at all was it explicitly went out of its way to do nice things to try and soften its image.
Trump's mealy-mouthed muppets have happily pulled all the sugar coating off the shit-pie, and are now angry nobody wants to take a bite.

@decryption @static i bloody love fallout 4, but without the unofficial patch mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4598 , it was unplayable.
I think it also needs the script extender mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/42147
Game experience is completely different with these installed.

@sachee morning people aren't anxious enough to be kept awake at night, which means they're not paying attention.
I can't trust em, the logic doesn't stack up.

This bit hits especially hard in light of Satya's hard-on for AI, especially Recall.
"It’s maddening that someone can cost the company almost $1 billion on a product ANYONE could have told you wasn’t it. It’s even more maddening they can get a $14 million+ reward for so obviously missing the mark."

By its very function and definition, LLM 'AI' can only ever bring you up to a skill level of 'average at best' in a realm you're not skilled in.
It is trained on the best and worst that has been fit to publish and it goes for the statistically most likely.
So yes, if you suck at writing - it seems like it's a wordsmith.
BUT If you're a skilled professional writer, it's simplistic and incapable.
If you're not a professional developer, it seems like it's a great coder.
BUT if you are someone who writes maintainable code, it puts out hot garbage.
This absolutely aligns with the findings of C-Suite executives *loving* AI, middle managers waxing enthusiastic, and actual workers finding it useless.
Most people aren't skilled writers, or artists or coders, or whatever - and by their very job role managers and executives don't work to produce usable output, they manage and and direct workers to.
