  • Almost guaranteed that every bee you've seen in the wild is female. So, women are bees

  • Pound for pound? Probably more expensive. But it has a much longer shelf life and they can be made much faster

  • How do you feel about the removal of tokens from arcades ?

    Jump

  • Sure, but you also aren't paying super close attention to the DDR cab either if you're in line. You're looking at things around the arcade and maybe pacing around a bit so that you aren't just hovering over the other people playing.

    Not only that, but losing a toonie is absolutely not the same as losing $50 on a card. It's an entirely different scale. $50 is far more attractive than $2 to a potential thief

    Also, where were you that the machine took toonies? Every arcade I've been in was loonies until they switched to the cards.

    It's not the best ska song by a country mile, but it's definitely the most ska song. At least as far as third wave goes.

  • True, but my point is that this is a systemic problem. You cannot buy different things to solve it.

    You would do much better by reducing your consumption rather than buying different brands

  • It's not always convenient, but you can't just take all the benefits of a capitalist system without having any of the responsibilities.

    There is literally no product you can buy in a capitalist system that did not feature suffering somewhere along the manufacturing pipeline.

    The absolute best situation you can hope for is that every single person in the chain from acquisition of raw materials to manufacturing a finished product is that the only suffering they experience is "I am forced to do this labor so I don't starve"

    I should point out that this is an extrme rarity in supply chains and manufacturing goods. Typically it's much worse.

    The reason things are like this is that it's very easy for humans to compartmentalize things and ignore the suffering of others if it makes their own situation just a little more bearable.

    As much as I wish Nestle would shrivel and die, there are far too many people out there that will buy the baby formula or the chocolate bar without even considering the misery that went into making it. And even if they know about it, it's easier to just buy it and feel a small pang of guilt than go without.

    Fox News host suggests US ‘may have to burn a bridge’ with Denmark over Greenland

  • The US was probably the strongest soft power in history.

    These people don't understand how much they're giving up because they simply don't understand how to wield that power.

    Why did the author compare cops and proud boys to Miley Cyrus and Hannah Montana?

    What conclusions can you draw about the author based on this comparison?

  • Software has been becoming slower and more bloated for decades and it's only going to accelerate with "ai".

    This is mostly true, but a little misleading. (although the AI part is absolutely correct)

    This is mostly a result of having more powerful hardware. When you're working with very limited hardware, you have to be clever about the code you write. You're incentivized to find trade-offs and workarounds to get past physical limitations. Computer history is filled with stuff like this.

    Starting around the mid 90s, computer hardware was advancing at such a rapid pace that the goalposts shifted. Developers had fewer limitations, software got more ambitious and teams got larger. This required a methodology change. Code suddenly needed to be easier to understand and modify by devs who might not have a full understanding of the entire codebase.

    This also had a benefit to the execs, where entirely unoptimized, or even sometimes unfinished code could be brought to market and that meant a faster return on investment.

    Today we are seeing the results of that shift. Massive amounts of RAM and powerful CPUs are commonplace in every modern device, and code is inefficient, but takes up basically the same percentage of resources that it always has.

    This change to AI coding is unavoidable because the industry has decided that they want development to be fast and cheap at the cost of quality.

    The goal here isnt to have personal devices run the shitty vibe-coded apps, it's to lease time in datacenters to have them run it for you and stream it to your device for a monthly fee.
