I have a family member who has been a butcher for nearly 40 years.. if you'd want some tips on this to try it again I'm sure he'd be willing to tell you how to go about it properly.

Definitely has always been some absurdity and I think there always will be. I think it only varies in the degree!
You're simply wrong. I say this as a computer scientist who ended up studying and working in bioinformatics for a period of time.
The reason I don't now? It's that people don't understand biology enough to understand the currently untapped potential and definitely not the advances that have happened. So they allocate money to yet another todo app, food delivery app, crypto wallet, or yet another finetune of a model to talk like a caveman.
I have also developed a similar system not focused on the exploratory refinement of prompt(s). But more focused on feedback loops cybernetic style, so focused on the maintaining of stability of the prompt outputs by a growing library of deterministic checks and autofixes. Anything that is a "problem" which isn't covered by that library is surfaced to the human driving the process.
I'm sure people will take this the wrong way, but a lot of the people who are on HN and who orbit technology circles in SF are really just not actually intellectually curious people.
They might like to think they are, they might try to pretend they are, but when pushed they're simply not.
Look at all of the groupthink that is perpetuated nonstop while they also proclaim they're creating, investing in, etc. so many unique ideas. Yet year after year it's the same thing in a different color.
What they actually are is interested in money and prestige. So give it a little time and they'll learn enough about biology to try and get some validation from their peers with comments. If money actually pours into bio that is.
a scientific engine for prediction, design, and discovery that can map proteins across the tree of life, predict their structures, and design new protein binders that function in laboratory experiments.
So, my issue with this is just like in a lot of the other areas of bio we're not able to explore outside the semantics of what is "known." Even a simpler task of just doing proper assembly is plagued by this. De Novo assembly of an alien/novel organism mixed with samples from other alien organisms would be impossible with what we can do today. Even with things that we're familiar we struggle with metagenomic assembly.Maybe not between continents but we had meaningful live video chat in 1968
but I think we still have it a whole lot better than a century ago (by and large).
Worse, they won't even give you the dignity of a claim to contribution to society. Then the lack of contribution is weaponized against you.
It sounds like the public is only booing. Barely anything of note yet.
I think this is being misunderstood. I read it as a final bit of civility. It's a warning.
When local governments are captured by corporate interests this isn't the argument you think it is.
You're the one who inserted yourself in the discussion when I clarified my question. I wasn't dragging the discussion away from your preferred path any more than others were dragging it away from mine.
If you don't want to engage in political arguments then don't involve yourself in a subthread that wasn't even flagged.
In either case i'll leave and let you keep your echo chamber.
Right so then that answers my question. Violence is okay as long as it is directed outwards and said to be defensive, thank you for answering.
I'll remember this when my country of which i'm a citizen uses these same defensive weapons to secure any mineral wealth in Australia.
So if it's not guillotines and instead massed autonomous attack drones that would be an acceptable way to discuss violence?
Just want to make sure I understand you fully.
And when these things aren't possible?
Unfortunately, in 2026 even shoe companies are "AI companies"
Why not "2 Indian born people, 1 German born person, 1 Canadian born person, 1 Polish born person, 1 Ukrainian born person, and 2 US born people?"
Just so people know since the user above wanted to edit their comment away to hide how they really see things. It was this:
"They also pay the social security and Medicare taxes so listless rednecks can collect SSDI for being unable to work."
"listless rednecks"
Yea, keep that same energy and see how it plays out.
Offshoring isn't a given. It's simply permitted.
I guess if he told them "die slow motherfuckers" as he's told others that wouldn't be too intense for him.
What we need is a capabilities based security system. It could write all the python, asm, whatever it wants and it wouldn't matter at all if it was never given a reference to use something it shouldn't.
"hope that helps"
Why the smug sarcastic attitude? nah, fuck github i'm out.
in what specific ways did it go too deep? it's hard to understand when you're being so vague.
greatness is working illegally, tax evasion, defrauding consumers, and refusing to pay child support for all of your children.
Okay assuming you're right that society can offset this bad parenting.
Maybe a more prudent first step is giving these kids free breakfast, lunch, and dinner before putting state mandated age verification on a computer.
My parents?
Don't get it twisted. While what is happening is not right, explain to me what happens when there is criticism of China from within China on their treatment of Uyghurs.
Save taxpayers money?
I don't think I've ever seen my taxes go down in any tangible way from all the supposed taxpayer saving initiatives over the years.
Somehow we broke the "cheap, fast, good" metric and we don't even get "good" nor "cheap".
I'd prefer good and what i'm paying regardless over some false "savings"
It's childish to want to turn away and bury your head in the sand. He is what he was and looking away doesn't change that.
