gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Companies That Tried to Save Money With AI Are Now Spending a Fortune Hiring People to Fix Its MistakesEnglish91·3 days agoThis is what I fight against every goddamn day, and I get yelled at for fighting against it, but I’m not going to stop. I want to build shit that I can largely forget about (because, you know, it’s reliable and logically extensible and maintainable) after it gets to a mature state, and I’m not shy about making that known. This has led to more than a few significant conflicts over the course of my career. It has also led to me saying “I fucking told you so” more than a few times.

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Bill Ackman pledges to bankroll any NYC mayoral candidate capable of defeating Zohran MamdaniEnglish32·13 days agoLmao holy shit, could you imagine if the other Mario brother gets acquitted and then Mamdani gets him to sign on as some sort of high-level city official?

Like, for real, does this rich fuck not understanding that the vast majority of the American populace wants to see more blue shells? Honestly, how could it be more clear? All Zohran has to do is something like:
There’s an old proverb that says you should judge a person by the enemies they’ve made. Well, I’ve made an enemy of the billionaire Bill Ackman, and he’s pledged a blank check to whoever runs against me. But, there’s good news: votes decide elections, not money. I’m not listening to the money. I’m listening to the voters. I’m listening to you. Let’s win this together.

Go ham. The south Atlantic coast and the gulf coast voted for this. Now comes the “find out” part. I am genuinely out of fucks to give. Enjoy your hurricanes and the non-response you’ll get from the now-gutted FEMA. See if I fucking care. Have fun machine-gunning your own foot.

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Democratic establishment melts down over Mamdani's win in New YorkEnglish236·13 days agoNot any more. I will freely admit that this last round of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and letting the fascists win has broken me. I will absolutely and seriously consider voting 3p going forward.
