Culture is full of persephone eating pomegranate seeds, beware of greeks bearing gifts, don't eat fairy food, don't accept favors from demons because you'll owe them, monkey's paw wishes...
And then all these "ain't no such thing as a free lunch" fuckers tell you to check in LLM pull requests, and mock the reluctant as fools. STRINGS ARE VERY MUCH ATTACHED. This crap is fucking sticky at nuclear contamination levels. You pivoted from NFTs to this, we watched you do it.
@eigen I believe in free lunches. I've been an open source developer and science fiction convention organizer for decades, humans were hunter-gatherers long before inventing money, parents really shouldn't present their children a cumulative bill when they turn 18, etc.
But THEY don't believe in it, and are thus hypocrites. They do not ALLOW free lunches. The tragedy of the commons is capitalism, whose matrix math consumes "free" infinitely until scarcity puts a price on each lungful of air.
