First Lowtax banned the pedophiles, and I did not speak out because they were actual pedophiles and not like a dogwhistle for trans people. Then Lowtax banned the furries, and I did not speak out because I was not a furry. Then Lowtax took a break from moderating and mods unbanned the furries. Everyone* lived happily ever after. The end. *except Lowtax Whatever happened to that horny XCOM snake tits poster?

Somebody pointed out that Elon stopped using the laughing tears emoji in the past few days, so he must be paying attention to the constant dunking on everything he does. Keep it up!

I love this tweet, it’s peak Yud. Itemize everything into some unit or measurement (employees, empathy points, pain units), equalize everything with zero context, and then extrapolate to the dumbest conclusion possible.

Interesting seeing people talk about engineering as if then get simple stuff like how something growing exponentially works. It's not just 5x times harder, it's to the power of 5, friend.

Normally I don’t think you could do a copyright claim on a meme, but I guess in this case you could argue that the image wss being used as advertising material for twitter?

My self driving car startup is one engineer to turn left, one to turn right, one to hit the gas, and one to hit the brakes. Then everything is 5x harder to do in the real world so I have 20 engineers. My rocket startup is cheaper, I just need the one engineer for going up.

Yes, plus advertising pauses continue, and also several very large entertainment stars have left Twitter quite vocally. Elon is pissed about all of it.

HappyHippo posted:It's like calling the refs biased because they called more penalties on your team. Maybe your team just commits more fouls? True but when the refs have employement history with the team getting foules called on, it warrents looking into for example https://www.linkedin.com/in/carlos-monje worked for twitter then the biden campaign and now the current administration. also the refs made no claim to be neutral or impartial also the hunter laptop story was an amazing chance for change and it was wasted. DHS has a special portal for fighting disinformation https://theintercept.com/2022/10/31/social-media-disinformation-dhs/

Remember that Yud is where all that LessWrong poo poo comes from and thinks that one person being tortured forever is preferable to everyone in the world getting an eyelash in their eye. They itemized it all out and you can’t argue with math. That’s what makes then Rationalists.  Elon totally has this sort of brain worm too but to a lesser extent.

To build a house, you need a wood guy (1 person), a plumbing person (1 person), and an electricity installer (1 person). 3 people should be able to make a house in 1 day or else they should all be fired.

davecrazy posted:And yet no major corporation or massive entertainment star has made any move to withdraw from Twitter and shutter their accounts. Jack White did  Wouldn't expect this to change overnight, as Twitter is *super* integrated into the web as it currently is. One reason people are posting so many tweets here is that this site auto-handles showing an embed, making it very easy to share. Seems like at the moment everyone is eyeing the door, and probably laying groundwork for the Post-Twitter world, but wouldn't expect major corps to decide overnight to drastically change their immediate social strategies. That kind of whiplash and acting on a whim aren't usually seen as solid strategy, as *hand gestures to the room* is kind of showing. The H1B1 stuff is gross. Know people who work on those, and it's already a kind of sword of Damocles. That gives them 60 days *over the holidays* to find a new job that will sponsor and do the paperwork to continue that. Wildly cruel to do over a loving code review.

waffle iron posted:Say what you mean instead of a list of garbage data points. see now your just baiting to explain a linkin profile, and news article. if you need help understanding those I dont know what to tell you. But if I try to explain it you will then call me dumb. I will then explain more. Then a mod will prob me for a strange reason. Then I will end up in a pm conversation with the mods...again. tell you what buddy I ll meet you half way. So That website is called linkin, its a social media site/resume site. The man I linked to or into worked for twitter, for a short period and has conection to previous and current administrations. wait. tell you what buddy just pm your deets and we work through it together.

The actuate_breaking_system function is like 3500 lines now, and none are wasted on comments.
