@soatok Cult-like behaviour is the only explanation for the existence of AI enthusiasts that makes sense to me.

@soatok I share my house with three cats. They never do anything useful, but I still enjoy their company.

@soatok I've usually found (for myself, at least) it takes nearly a week off work just to unwind, nevermind getting the creative juices flowing.

And it seems to take more than just time off to get inspired.

@soatok I still maintain that nobody would actually notice if the C-Suite was replaced with AI.

@soatok This part sends me:

"IPv8 resolves address exhaustion as a consequence of its addressing architecture, not as a primary design goal."

@soatok When your only tool is a KPI, everything looks like a metric.

If The Matrix had kept its original plot – the Machines built the Matrix as a massive supercomputer (instead of a battery) because Machines lack insight, creativity, and ingenuity – then it would be a whole lot more relevant today.

@pq1r @inex @soatok Survivorship Bias, but for programmers

@soatok "so we can have more furry stickers"

@soatok This is great advice for any software. Don't make things hard for end users (unless they happen to be domain experts, and even then...be nice).

@gsuberland @soatok Capitalism: Why build efficient and fast when you can simply sell more slow?

@kieran I fixed it #tfeveryday

random website: "We see that you're using an ad blocker.”
me: “Correct, and I'm not turning it off. Goodbye!” *closes tab*

@kcarruthers @haakon Why not go further: introduce proportional representation (like our senate) and abolish electoral districts. Can't gerrymander if there's no district boundaries!
