Techbros: Here's the detailed technical plans for a working Torment Nexus.

Everyone: Building a Torment Nexus is a horrible idea.

Techbros: Why won't people focus on the technical merits of the proposal.

@chrisg I saw a wild exchange on here recently that went like this:

Person: racist tech is bad and we should not make racist tech
Techbro: the code/model isn't racist, it's the training data that only includes a narrow sunset of people so everything is fine!
Everyone else: ....... Ok so that is still pretty bad, you see that, right?
Techbro: Nope. Please only consider how the algo could maybe have been been used in a less racist way

@transitory @damon @chrisg I think we saw the same thing.
