In a sense, I’m already planning on killing myself

Nope I’d definitely kill myself before letting an ai fuck with my brain

We are in a submarine actually

Of course they know, they’re using it to hide the truth. Stop giving a corporation the benefit of the doubt where public safety is concerned, especially when they’ve been shown to abuse it in the past

Personally, I’d much rather have never been born than be as neurodivergent as I am. We all exist without our consent, and I think preventing disabilities and neurodivergence in our children is no more unethical than having children in the first place. I’d never make the decision for people who already exist, I know some people consider it a part of who they are and I wouldn’t want to change that. However, with hypothetical offspring, they aren’t anybody yet. You can’t take away part of a identity that doesn’t exist.

What scares me is the idea that having neurodivergent children could be outlawed. I think neurodivergence does bring a lot of value to humanity as a whole, and while I don’t think there’s anything egreiously unethical about an individual preventing it in their child, the idea that a government could have that much power over how we have children is absolutely fucking terrifying.

This is something I’ve thought a lot about. I hope you appreciate my rambling or at least don’t find me inconvenient to ignore

I have had a very similar experience. I still avoid driving whwnever I can. A different take on what your father said, I think a car accident is just another, fairly common, lesson in how to drive. It can be true both that almost everyone has had an accident AND that being in an accident can be traumatic and very off-putting. Your feelings are absolutely valid. Sadly, in the U.S., being able to drive is more or less required to be able to participate in pretty much anything.

Ultimately, my crash drove me to be a much more careful and aware driver, and while I still hate to drive, looking back I think being in an accident was probably inevitable for me. I don’t know where I’m going with this, I can’t give advice or anything, just wanted to share.

No, it’s the difference between software engineering and software development. If your project manager is handling that, your org is wack

If you’re not understanding why the spec is the way it is, you’re just creating job security for your replacement lol

Lmfao the hardest part of building a product is understanding customer wants and needs. LLMs are incapable of understanding

The two things are related

Idgaf what it is just hand me that fluffy friendly happy animal to hug

I think it’s likely a printer calibration issue but I have a workaround idea–on the first layer, can you leave space between the characters and the surface?

Lol in my head it stands for slurp nick

Good luck transporting a couch in a car

Ah but I don’t care about my life

That’s… A really good idea

Time to redesign my phone case

I think I know why authoritarian has different connotations, specifically not inherently negative to me–stellaris! When setting up your civilization in stellaris, there are several… factors? you can base them on, each one has an opposite. Materialist vs spiritualist, militarist vs pacifist, xenophobe vs xenophile, and authoritarian vs egalitarian. I’m used to the word in the context of a descriptive spectrum, not inherently good or bad. (Usually bad in the context of irl stuff, that just doesn’t seem to be where my mind goes first) Just thought you might find it neat

Mood, we’re on the same page the word authoritarian just has a bit different meaning to me

I’m sick of respectful debates about my right to exist. That’s what blahaj zone is for, and it does it well.

Yep exactly pretty much

Sure. Transphobia is straight up not tolerated at all. There is zero room for discussion. It’s not something a community on bz can allow, it’s ada’s mission statement that bz is a safe space for trans people, end of story. That’s why I love it and use it. I wouldn’t call it censorship heavy, at least not in the aame way ml and the like are. You can criticize and bitch about ada and her actions as much as you want, you won’t get silenced. However, I’d still absolutely place it on the authoritarian end of the spectrum compared to a place like dbzero. I call it authoritarian but it’s not a negative thing, it’s why I use it. It’s it done right. Idk maybe I have different connotations for the instance and for the word authoritarian than you/most people, I hope this clears up what I mean
