Looks like Techhub took care of that trash account in my replies. Although nobody will ever see it, I take back calling it a trash sever with bad moderation; I was just very annoyed that I keep ending up with try hard randos from that sever in my replies

Nobody is saying you gotta agree with me man but I ain't interested in hashing it out with every dipshit "centrist" who took a wrong turn at LinkedIn

Either way, I apologize for besmirching Techhub's moderating. Clearly, they take it seriously

I’m rewatching old Star Trek episodes to see which ones pass the B’kdel Test:
(1) Two named Klingons
(2) Talking to each other
(3) About something other than honor

Mastodon has a new human-over-AI contribution policy.

tl;dr:

- The human contributor is the sole party responsible for the contribution.

- If AI was used to generate a significant portion of your contribution (i.e. beyond simple autocomplete), we require you to disclose it in the Pull Request description.

- If you cannot guarantee the provenance and legal safety of the AI-generated code, do not submit it.

- Cases of repeated violations of these ... guidelines could result in a ban from our repositories.

the only people who think "write code faster" is more important than "write code better" are money perverts and the intellectually infirm

Sigh.

New boss: “You’re good at writing notes.”

Me: “Thank you, it helps me to remember so I have been writing summaries for many years.”

New boss: “You should try CoPilot and see what it can do.”

Me: “Well I enjoy summarizing my notes, and it helps me to learn and remember.”

New boss: “Let me show you something I did in CoPilot.”

Ugh. Writing it myself helps me LEARN and REMEMBER. Why are these AI zombies so intent on changing a process that is helpful to me? Feeding notes through CoPilot won’t benefit me when it’s the act of writing that works for me.

What is actively happening now is exactly why Billionaires should not be allowed to exist without heavy taxation.

Never has a person obtained/hoarded up this amount of wealth… and actually done ANYTHING useful to better the society and people who they stole their wealth from. At this point, they end up harming society more than helping it.

Billionaires in all their forms are a cancer.
