Yeah but they didn’t have social media algorithms turning their brains into slush

They also didn't have nuclear weapons to use in global conflicts over resources.

Solution-looking-for-a-problem mentality is a curse.


That tells me everything I need to know about this guy.

And it’s making that up as well.

Seems like Amazon is doing the right thing cutting down its corporate workforce then.

Automating editing is by definition making it slop.

No. Public shaming for sharing AI written slop is what we need more of.


Such public shaming loses its value when it's overused though (see: boy who cried wolf). The "written by AI" accusation is thrown around so much, when it often isn't even true, that it just triggers scepticism as the initial reaction. At least, it does for me.


But it’s also true in this case. I’ve had my own comments claimed to be AI by someone because I used a phrase like “delve into”, but a few false positives from the over-eager are to be expected even if it’s not optimal.


That will lead to world war.


Local weather is what matters to individuals. So is access to affordable energy.

You cannot coerce someone to ignore their local weather and sabotage access to affordable energy because of some global average. It’s a losing battle that’s fundamentally misled.


You have to coerce the individual to follow the strategic direction despite tactical disadvantages. This is what leadership means.

If we all individually spend more money to accommodate the effects of climate change than their causes, then we are wasting enormous economic resources.


Sure, but local is a radius. There's my local, then there's my region's local, then there's my country's local. As wonderful as globalism sounds on paper, if saving the global average leads to a drought or a flood for another country, or another region, then you are trying to convince others of giving up a lot for no tangible relevant gain.


People don't like to admit it, but JD Vance was right about Europe. And the UK is up there with the worst of us. I am European.


> I am European.

Not a real one. A traitor. You will get what you deserve.
