So it was an inside job!

Sometimes it helps solve an equation by adding zero.

I understand its probably more user friendly, but yet I still somehow find myself dissapointed the answers weren’t indexed from zero. Was this LLM written in MATLAB?

They do a naked run every semester at Berkeley the week before finals. Its called dead week, where there’s no classes, and its a time for students to cram for their exams, or, you know, run naked around campus.

After giving the medium a chance, not sure I wouldn’t call myself a fan anymore, but I certainly take issues with the typically associated tropes. So here’s my list of more recent shows with either very little or none of these.

Literally tried looking for a jinx text editor for a minute

Briefly looked into it, and found an old stack post that said we know at least one is irrational. It would be pretty interesting if the other were rational.

I advocate for a cooperative economy. The best example of it working at scale in the modern world is the mondragon corporation in spain.

I think people are more than that. The point being that nothing is inherently wrong with making individualistic self serving choices except when there is disregard for others. But people can also be compassionate, alturistic, giving, and cooperative, so how about a system that rewards the better parts of human nature?

Capitalist markets are built off of the idea that people are inherently self serving and the ensuing competition will benefit people with lower prices, better products, etc to meet their own selfish needs. Capitalism uses capital to gain more capital, and is exploitative by design. When a company acts in a way to maximize profits, and appease shareholders, they’re doing it selfishly, with total disregard for others or the environment, in a system that rewards their actions. This is quite like psychotic, or sociopathic, behavior.

I just think trying to control this is a losing battle, and what we really need are foundational changes to values, motives, and what gets rewarded and how.

I disagree. I think that may actually be the only way out of this mess. “Cooperation [being nice, forgiving, but not a pushover, and clear] pays even among rivals” (Veritasium - Prisoners Dilemma).

Death by unfortunately misinterpreted font. There are worse ways to go.

There’s an idea on the left about building horizontally, or from the ground up, for there to be something to fall back on after the inevitable collapse of capitalism. These are things like community food systems, mutual aid, cooperatives, land trusts, etc. The left is active in local politics, supporting unions, organizing, and so on. Not all of us that worry this system may be beyond saving are actually just waiting to die, but doing what we can where we can with limited resources.

The way all of this is discussed and phrased paints a sort picture, in some peoples minds, of white men being evil. The problem is that this capitalist society is too isolatating, individualistic, and distracting for everyone to properly empathize with the struggles of others, so we end up with these people on the defensive. We’re left with a portion of the population supporting a proper biggot like trump to now justify they’re own existence.

If only we could have all been properly educated… but its all just distracting from the fact that everyone suffers from an oppressive and exploitative system, some more than others. But its probably about time for a more uniting class conscience form of rhetoric.

I can read docs and would be interested in an internship… Paid ideally, but would love to have a mentor to learn devops. I also know multiple programming languages and am comfortable in a terminal

We’re all messed up because we’ve built a society that isolates and exploits us while rewarding psychotic behavior via corporations or people acting selfishly without regard for others

Now if only I could afford the van, I too could be homeless. Just like I’ve always wanted.

I imagine if they were properly communist, the US would have never allowed them to rise. There’d have been assassinations, coups, and purposeful destabilizations like we saw in south america.

I think its way healthier and I wish this was the common sentiment.

Great suggestion! Gonna try this on the bus on my way to work later.
