I think beeing in this kind of bubble for to long, automatically generates the perspective that you are the center of attention for the whole universe.

My grandfather had a nanny/servant, who had to do whatever the spoiled brat asked for. The result was a person, who automatically assumes that all other beeings have not meaning or intent and are in dire need of beeing pupeteered.

Its the sort of disgusting human beeing you regularly find to be CEO. Its one of the reasons they are also so fascinated with art- because art can not be created by pupeteering- as they are usually quite unimaginative.

Or you write sunny day code and wonder why everyboy elses code is riddled with those strange defensive structures.

Only slightly related, but imagine, if you take a huge server rack- and you insert hidden behind the front - a glas jar with a silicon-brain, into which tons of glowing wires run.

I want to hear the maintenance calls for that one.

What really is horrible here is the asymmetry of cost- the development of stealth technology costed billions and took from drawinboard to reliable implemenetation close to half a century.

And it seems that detection is always easier and cheaper. I wonder wether radar and quantum "noise"-bombs that basically spam the enemy detection methods would be a cheaper approach.

Well, because its really easy to raise concern. On everything. So the really concerning parts drown in the background noise of people protecting there lifes against every single step they take.

Hierarchical systems, are mostly humming all day long with people trying to save there asses. Which generates systems that are deaf to real dangers,thus making hierarchical company structure a inherent source of risk and dangers.

Its not the copyright, its the chilling effect of not visible copyright. This encasing of the whole web and everything on it with a invisible alarm-field for the users.

You may not send radiowaves. You may not distill your own alcohol, you may not do this, you may not do that. Let the professionals handle it. This is where some self-important case like the Taxi-drivers starts to enshrine a often trivial task to demand entry dutys and guild taxes.

I want you to clearly sign your content - so that is unreusable and nobody gets put out in the court to statuate a exemple, so that a useless caste of professinal may life from the fear of the comoners.

You can not put up minefields and fences on public property to protect your lifestyle by making everyone life in constant fear.

I wish there was some way to mark such hostile silo-parts of the web against the allmende, original web.

There are sources for addiction regarding animals on the web. Its quite interesting what horses and goats do for some weeds.

The war on Horse-Drugs should have priority. Give the DEAs some hoes to whack out the danger.

I dread the world that people like you aspire to.

A thousand foxholes with legal snipers each out to get one another.

All that, so one grumpy webdesigner can live from glueing together some 2nd tier stockfootage.

I licensend all my content under the GPL and similar Licenses.

I wish there was a way to seperate that hell of a internet you want to live in from the web i work to archieve every day.

I work hard on my hobby, but i do not feel entitled too money for it.

You get snake-phobia and survive.

You get a addictive behaviour and slowly immunize yourself with microdoses of poison.

You hunt your prey in a poison diluting or neutralizing environment.

You set the plains on fire with dryd grass to interrupt the feeding cycle of the plague and eat the denatured poisonous creatures.

There are a lot of different strategies. One must admire the crows for eating the fugu though.

Will call it that from now on.. this is awesome

How about fixed size stacks- with a canary of a expansionfunction at the top? That way you can have it both- the speed and fixed size- and expandability on demand- by simply checking for the canary in a pattern and executing it ..

The problem here is the market distorting the incentives to the point that car-manufacturers have a interest that thieves create artifical demand backed by insurance money. Which the insurarers then transfer to the consumer, a circle that amounts to a hidden price raise for cars via insurrance, and contains nothing of value for the user of the product.

If you get a gnu-hoof onto your head, while hunting, you can actually fall down the veggie ladder- so from third order vegetable, you can return to beeing a vegetable alltogether.

Well, at least its not recording your every stroke, to sell that as "mind-reading" info to advertisers.

How, should we call it when software regresses. Its not bloat- its worser.

You could say the same thing about a firefighter- and yet they exist. Sorry, if you mistake courage with insanity. Some people have a urge to help that lets them run into the wrong direction.

Without that- you would have died in that car-accident you sometimes get flashbacks to. There is a dentist effect here at work- everybody forgets the negative moments in live, everyone forgets about theire dentist until it hurts again. Police and Emergency services are socially isolated due to that effect.

The problem here is that most language are tailored to easy learning by humans and not to strong performance. If you had a language tailored to strong performance, it would force you to bundle together seemingly unrelated data into structures used in the main hot codepath of the core algorithm.

It would then force you to specify data delivery routes and processing- and would craft a cache optimal process loop dependent on the used architecture. The result would seem like a enormous while loop, that takes seemingly arbitrary number of for loops to preprocess data, glued together in strange overleafing unions to shove the endresult to the main process algorithm.

This would be the most optimal result for a processor- but to write a language to describe this- and compilers to implement this) - the horror.

Is a sheep anything more then a biologically processed heap of vegies?

The profession was always stale and boring once you become aware of the meta cycles and boom-busts of concepts and buzzwords.

Real new concepts are rare under the sun by now. New Problems, are usually old problems rediscovered by new Programmers.

Really. Just like the Gesture UI Tom Cruise used in minority report. If it looks good on TV is usually strainfull in reality.

I have yet to see a classic gui with a decent NN- which learns your default behaviour in every step, applying those by ctrl+left-click.

The base assumption of measureable performance is wrong. What if somebody sat all day in the office doing nothing, just talking with one of the best performers once in a while.

S/he is nothing but a drag on the team, on the papers, but in reality s/he might be the brains of the operations, with a "high-performer" as company front.

Abstract that away and you can see HR gunning out everyone but sales. Sales can do nothing without a good product, except sell themselves extremely well.

My personal base assumption is that HR, with the 10 % rule without external oversight destroys more valua then it creates. The powerplays alone are enough to wreak havoc.

Basically a lawyer DAO, with the little problem that the involved constituting organelles have a interest of taking over and eating the uncontrolled host.

    Musk! 

    He'll sting you with his dreams of power and wealth. 

    Beware of Musk! 

    His twisted twin obsessions are his plot to rule the world 
    And his employees' health. 

    He'll welcome you into his lair 

    Like the nobleman welcomes his guest 

    With free dental care and a stock plan that helps you invest! 

    But beware of his generous pensions 

    Plus three weeks paid vacation each year 

    And on Fridays, the lunchroom serves hot dogs and burgers and beer! 

    He loves German beer!

They are always free to choose another drug and walk away from this company. The market is free like that, the invisible hand distributing only where demand exists.

On could argue that even jesus did allow for xeno-theism, given that he argued for giving the roman emperor what the roman emperor was due- and the roman emperors at that time considered themselves basically gods or god decendants.

Boilerplate bureacracy usually happens, when Configurations are not itteratable and/or a language does not enforce the providing of meaningfull defaults. I find both sides guilt and charged here...

There is a lot of evidence for large parts of the early bible stories beeing copyied from the egyption sun god movement.

The purest capitalistic endavours are drug deals, theft and scams.

The more refined variants, which find law loopholes and apply them with leverage,are still the same approach.

Look at those jailbirds under the sky, they do not sow, but our Lord the Ford, supplies them better then those working none the less.

The shareholders of a company know this deep down as well, so one serial scam series later- the comon pension er who had to use bad software all his life, can retire knowing he ripped off some poor schmock to have this.

I really wonder about the relations between the earlier hominides and the brainiacs.

The surveilance works also in reverse. Black Lives Matter wouldnt be there if there wasnt the masses surveil the supressors.

Alot of technology benefits are non visible today- but imagine any nasty event- and notice how a lot of the implicit knowledge of a society would survive today- encoded in videos, automated tutorials and wikipedia articles.

And it even makes kind of sence. Investing into "Leaps" forward can fail in a thousand ways, investing into measure that prevent society from falling down completely and allow fast recoverys, well that is something that can become usefull a hundred times over.

Its like a dice where one in nth sides gives you a chance to leap forward - and 0.5*n of all sides have a chance you must step permanently back. Removing those sites of the dice from the scenario tree, is statistically OP though not really cool to watch.

The only thing currently not OP is how companys research is directed towards local optima. There are no big attempts to lift whole areas of endavours in feasability.

Actually, if i had the whole picture- i would guess that humanity is currently on some sort of golden path.
