Retired blue collar Glazier & Contractor. Union apprenticed & trained. Ponderer at heart. Answers to questions should lead to more questions to reflect & express life on this little blue ball. Absolutes make no sense to me. Therefore dogma, legalism, and ritualism are colossal myths & wastes of time & energy (IMHO).
They are starting to get it ...

“The #DOGE team asked that their activities not be logged on the system and then appeared to try to cover their tracks

“The employees grew concerned that the NLRB's confidential data could be exposed, particularly after they started detecting suspicious log-in attempts from an IP address in #Russia”

After more than a decade of daily Trump press coverage, doesn’t matter what he is saying. All I hear is “Yep. I am as incomparably ignorant as I sound due to the overflowing volume of shit in my brain, ears, and mouth from a lifetime of having my head up my own bigly ass.”

By electrical outlet, battery, or backup generator

Whether a single laptop, desktop, corporate network server, or vast server farm for AI processing

If disconnected from their electrical power source, they are simply Bricks and dumber than rocks.

Some interesting (vulnerable) examples would be certain EV factories or corporate offices, social media headquarters or server farms, huge online store distribution warehouses


Just sayin’


I’ve often made the point that generative AI is an amazing tech much like asbestos is an amazing material: they have qualities that feel like genuine miracles but at a human cost so high that broad adoption is only possible if human life is devalued beyond what has been acceptable up until now

But much of the adoption of generative models doesn’t come from the few it does well, but is driven by those who do not understand the job they’re replacing.

I’m perplexed. Democratic leadership still seems to believe the multi-billionaires and corporate oligopolies are dismantling the government cuz they want another massive tax cut. Don’t most of them pay little or no taxes already? Why would one need a cut from $0?

Perhaps they’re after something else.

Perhaps something bigger.

Like the rest of everyone else’s wealth.

Well, what’s left of it, that is.

Not to mention god-like power over the world.

I dunno. Old school I guess, but I am partial to stuff that leans toward the realish human side of things.

If we're going to rename stuff for cult points, perhaps "American Democracy" should become... well... "WTF!?"
25 years ago I had a colleague who had grown up in the PRC. He had a forest of newspaper clippings pinned on the wall of his cubicle with stories about school boards in the US banning the teaching of evolution, discussion of sexual health, and stuff like that. When I asked him about it, he pointed and said, "Every one of those is an engineering job moving to China." I've been thinking about that a lot over the past week
