  • That’s way too generalized of a statement, even though I get what you mean. Things like infrastructure and mobility for example play a major part in how a city feels and develops. Tokyo, Amsterdam and Detroit are all cities but couldn’t be more different in nature, which in turn also shapes society and economy.

    To think cities cause humans to just be themselves is as foolish as the foolishness your post was an answer to.



  • You don’t bet in achieving a pipe dream in the near future when developing something (at least I hope you don’t). The actual AI devs are also rather humble about what can be realistically achieved in the near future if they’re allowed to speak openly, it’s the techbros and investors who’re blowing everything up so phenomenally that the only way for this bubble - which by now is big enough to crash the US economy on its own - to proceed is to achieve the literally impossible, which is General Artificial Intelligence within at least the next 2 to 3 years (they can only pump so much money into it). I haven’t heard a single developer or scientist saying this to even be remotely realistic.

    This is more about economics than programming, AI experts and grifters just collect the money as long as the bubble persist. Also has to do with tech-solutionism and latestage capitalism. In the end the science of Machine Learning will prevail (although a lot of devs might need to find other specialisations; perhaps COBOL?), but this economical house of cards will fall apart. Let’s hope it will burry US-neolibertarianism and -fascism under it this time.



  • There i kimda realised that a lot of people commenting are in high school.

    Or never grew out of it, apparently. What a sad existence that must be, constantly on guard to not fall out of line. Also lol, “brand integrity”. 😂 Imagine you have to bolster your own confidence with god damn brand names and dress like a moving advertising column. Especially for trash such as Supreme. These people need help, I’m almost sorry for them. I was sufficiently abused in school to get their fear though, they definitely need to get out of their toxic social circle for a while to breath some fresh air.









  • You can’t fight fascists through politics. Fascists do not play by the rules, not even their own. Your only hope not to end up in a civil war or a fascist hellhole, if you don’t want to defend yourself by force, is if the fascists screw themselves over so strongly they don’t notice how their influence vanishes. Other than that it’s more likely for the US to shatter into pieces rather violently.
