I saw an interview with the son of a 9/11 victim last month. One of the things he said was: "anybody can see my father die on youtube". Really stuck with me.
You must have put yourself through some horrible times then, given that you clearly dislike the guy a ton, but have listened to a lot of his content to asses his "true character".
> Sometimes he reviews shit he hasn't even seen or played because he wants to get in on the discussion.
That's a sweet but also very baseless accusation. You should do better research.
> Every woman lead is a diversity hire, but every male lead in a bad movie is just an "unfortunate miss."
I very much doubt he calls every woman lead a diversity hire. I think you are overreacting and putting him in the chuds tribe you are already very opinionated about.

3) Other than that, thanks man great service!
I started a new job in 2017 rewriting a rather large website with tons of functionality. The old one had to be replaced because it wasn't maintained and started to become a security issue.
I started doing JS and React/Redux for that job, and just as I was getting the hang of it React broke all my knowledge by coming up with "the modern way of writing React components", hooks. In my opinion there was absolutely nothing wrong with the old way of writing components. I never rewrote my now more than year old project, kept using the normal way of writing React components, which was still allowed. Two years later the depreciation messages started flashing by in the build process, and I was looking at a moutain of work having to refactor the complete front end.
Luckily I was able to move on to other things. But React always left the taste in my mouth of "don't, it auto-breaks after time".
I recently visited this old employer, and they have now hired a new coder to rebuild the old website, which is becoming a security issue.
Kinda kills my thought experiment though, but I guess that's the point. Thanks.
I never claimed people are choosing a career in physics research for the money, I just used the argument of having to choose to lose ones income. Also, I can't help but notice though that, when ascended high enough on the academic ladder, the income isn't a joke either.
Lets' assume the Higgs boson doesn't exist. A large group of scientists has spent 10 billion dollars of public tax payer money to create an experiment that will prove it's existence. It cost them many years to do, decades, and most scientists have staked their entire career on the outcome of the experiment. Turns out, they were wrong, and the particle doesn't exist.
Those scientists now have two options: 1) Being thruthful about the non-discovery, thereby suiciding their own careers (and income!), evoking the wrath of the taxpayer, and basically becoming the laughing stock of the scientific community. 2) Just make some shit up for a while and go on and enjoy your pension which is only a couple of years away.
What would you do?
But it is clearly an AI-generated image. Look at the reflection of the lamp in the window, it overlaps the window frame.
Is this now the norm, AI-generated images pawned off as begin real? Good lord...
Who will ever know if they do or not...
