Ask him, he’s seemingly the one very disappointed with the Democratic party.

OK… so he’s been part of a party he feels is ineffectual and hasn’t solved anything since the 1970s?

Hey Bernie:

Thanks for being a democratic hack for years and years. You rage against them and constantly try to dunk on them, but what’s your party affiliation? Oh yeah, that’s right, Democratic. Good job criticizing them while also being part of the problem.

Reagan gets the blame for 9/11 by not passing Federal laws that help to keep hijackers off of planes.

She did her part keeping the hospital beds available for more profitable patients. It’s the American way. As long as our hospitals (and government) prioritize profits over health, there will be no end to these stories.

Is there a person alive on this planet now with a so called “spotless” record? OP, are you of all the major decisions Kamala has made and you agree with them?

Was Adolf Hitler running a flawless campaign too?

Not flawless, but his moves to boost the German economy and reduce unemployment had pretty wide support in Germany, especially after the extreme troubles the Germans had economically after the first World War. His rise to power was only made possible by a wide base of support that existed during the 1930s in Germany.

Think of all the extra money they will make selling the new merch.

This is really splitting hairs, but if you asked that cloud CEO if he employed programmers or ‘software engineers’ he would almost certainly say the latter. The larger the company, the greater the chance they have what they consider an ‘engineering’ department. I would guess he employs 0 “programmers” or ‘engineeringless programmers’.

Let me weigh in with something. The hard part about programming is not the code. It is in understanding all the edge cases, making flexible solutions and so much more.

I have seen many organizations with tens of really capable programmers that can implement anything. Now, most management barely knows what they want or what the actual end goal is. Since managers aren’t capable of delivering perfect products every time with really skilled programmers, if i subtract programmers from the equation and substitute in a magic box that delivers code to managers whenever they ask for it, the managers won’t do much better. The biggest problem is not knowing what to ask for, and even if you DO know what to ask for, they typically will ignore all the fine details.

By the time there is an AI intelligent enough to coordinate a large technical operation, AIs will be capable of replacing attorneys, congressmen, patent examiners, middle managers, etc. It would really take a GENERAL artificial intelligence to be feasible here, and you’d be wildly optimistic to say we are anywhere close to having one of those available on the open market.

20 years ago at a trade show, a new module based visual coding tool was introduced in my field which claimed “You’ll never need another programmer”.

It’s because people trying to sell silver bullets is nothing new.

Hint: it’s not just in tech…

How much longer until cloud CEOs are a thing of the past? Wouldn’t an AI sufficiently intelligent to solve technical problems at scale also be able to run a large corporate division? By the time this is actually viable, we are all fucked.

Yeah but I heard my cousin’s friend had only one and instantly got autism.

And shouldn’t everyone individually assess their own "sexual market value"s, and be free to do so?

Yes

> “A and B are equal. However, I only prefer A. Why do people that enjoy A and B think I am being discriminatory towards B?”

I personally (as the subject of the example) am seeking a bio, cis woman.

Ah, so you’re saying “no trans”

I can understand putting a “no trans” label on a profile can seem hurtful

Yes, people will feel excluded by this

I’m not degrading trans women

Correct, you are just saying that they aren’t sexually attractive to you and you assign higher sexual market value to cis women and that you see trans women and cis women as different

So I’m confronted with the reality that if I want to believe trans women are women, I shouldn’t be able to hold my second opinion, but it feels like one that can’t budge.

You called yourself out.

How to reconcile?

LOL you don’t. “Transwomen are women (except when I am choosing a mate, then I can be selective)”
