We’re now at the point where tech media has turned and will now have you believe Google should be questioned, is untrustworthy, and that their promise means nothing

This is worse than even the most insufferable apple fanboy.

Google! Untrustworthy!

God I can’t imagine why anyone would think that

Jokes on them I was only pretending

We’re making propaganda… Join us… the 4chan thread instructs

So the campaign is coordinated

4chan

The visual guide instructs potential posters to create images that are “Funny, provocative. Redpilling message (Jews involved in 9/11). Easy to Understand.” Under an image that shows a crying Pepe the frog with a needle next to its arm and a gun pointed to his head, the guide says “vaccines enforced by violence.” Under an AI-generated image of two Black men with gold chains chasing a white woman, the guide said “redpilling message (migrant crime in scandinavia).”

So they’re white supremacist fascists

MAKE, EDIT, SHARE

So they are inundating people with it

whether you think it’s random fun or not is subjective, but the way they’ve described it is accurate.

It doesn’t hurt that the same companies that did all the things that made people cynical about technologies are the ones perpetrating this round of BS

Because they live in the same society as you, and they get to decide who goes to jail as much as you do

I just look at this and ask myself if the slots really needed a direct always online connection to the same database that the employees log into

have people go back to using pen and paper

If it’s so important losing access to it costs you $50 million a day I would look at the supposed savings it brings you and gauge your risks accordingly

I don’t care. Organizations should have better security culture or use fewer computers, this is an abject win in my view

That’s kinda dumb but also incredibly niche, prob low volume

I don’t need any of these, I already have the USB-C cables for my laptop, that was the whole point of switching to USB-C. Also in the cover photo is that a USB-C to USB-C dongle? What use is that??

am I crazy or is this just a markdown renderer

At the designing stage, the CEO asked the CTO to “propose a concrete programming language” that would “satisfy the new user’s demand,” to which the CTO responded with Python. In turn, the CEO said, “Great!” and explained that the programming language’s “simplicity and readability make it a popular choice for beginners and experienced developers alike.”

I find it extremely funny that project managers are the ones chatbots have learned to immitate perfectly, they already were doing the robot’s work: saying impressive sounding things that are actually borderline gibberish

I can totally see the use case for boilerplate, but I’m also very very rarely writing new classes from scratch or whatever

It’s evaporative cooling, big cooling towers

I feel like we’re missing the forest for the trees here, this is all in service of a feature in bing that was supposed to revolutionize search but actually caused a 0% increase in Bing’s market share from q1 to q3 https://www.zdnet.com/google-amp/article/bings-search-market-share-fails-to-budge-despite-ai-push/

This sentiment comes off a lot like “it won’t affect me, I don’t care”.

Then you’ve severely misunderstood what I wrote

Nobody should have to put up with this shit. That’s why we take a stand against it.

That is exactly what I’m advocating for

I realize exactly how much I use them, reread what I have written.
