DinoDad13··on Majority of US teens have lost trust in Big Tech
This is normal in business. Now that tech dominates they use that market position to setup monopolies. If we had functional anti-trust laws then it wouldn't feel so dire. Allowing monopolies in a capitalist system is the worst economic policy since socialism.

Manufacturing consent is easier than ever. Look at how many Americans feel that immigrants are mostly violent criminals.
DinoDad13··on US Civil servants are being asked who they voted for in 2024 election
The only constant in this universe is "change" so what ideology can be more illogical than one that rejects change? We are about to learn this lesson again as a society.

Human suffering is the US conservative platform :)

But they are not illegal. That is dehumanizing.

Asylum seekers are here legally.
DinoDad13··on Trump wins presidency for second time
Imagine how dumb the average person is. Half of them are even dumber than that. Less than half voted for Donald Trump!
DinoDad13··on Research in psychology: are we learning anything?
Psychology has always been considered a soft science.

The anti-trust case isn't about Google's LLM business.

I love it when the top comments on a hacker news thread is justifying monopolies. Fuck economics right?

DinoDad13··on OpenTofu Response to HashiCorp's Cease and Desist Letter
Weird strategy from Hashicorp. The amount of code that they claimed was infringed is tiny. And from what I can tell, is not algorithmically significant. It's such small ball.
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
How do you lower crime?
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
Neither did Kuwait. Canada, however, did have an increase. Global rates overall did increase.
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
We didn't forget that in 2020. An increase in crime is a pretty normal side effect of a global pandemic. We are lucky that it stayed so tame despite police not doing their jobs because they are pissy about having some accountability.
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
What a convenient way to dismiss all data.
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
Yes so stop freaking out over relatively low crime. Remember the lessons from that time.
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
How much more would you pay?
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
Sure sure but when it turns out 90% of crime is from 11 people it stops making sense to pass laws punishing all people of a certain class and/or giving police incredible amounts of power with little or no oversight.
DinoDad13··on The Crime Rings Stealing Everything from Purses to Power Tools
These charts really show how overblown the murder/car theft issues are now. Higher than pre-pandemic yes, but still relatively low.
DinoDad13··on Devin: AI Software Engineer

The situation did not make it clear one way or another. Probably on purpose.
DinoDad13··on 75% of Software Engineers Faced Retaliation Last Time They Reported Wrongdoing
Do you have evidence that in-group preferences are happening? Your workplace becoming more diverse is not proof of in-group preferences.
