I do not believe AI can effectively do the work of junior developers.
cferdinandi.bsky.social
I don't think AI will *actually* replace in the sense that it will do our jobs properly.

I do think it will lower wages and get a lot of people fired, and then those skills just won't exist or will have to be relearned.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.

In prison, Israeli guards told him again and again they had killed his entire family as psychological torture meant to break him. When he walked up the stairs of his home today, his wife rushed into his arms, with his children and parents beside her - alive, waiting, delirious with joy and relief.

ICE in Chicago detained two people (that we know of) for filming them today, a cyclist and a neighborhood rapid responder. This in addition to tear gassing another neighborhood and brandishing weapons at rapid response—both things that have also already been going on for weeks.

Sure, but a lot of people use "virtue signal" as a slur whenever anyone publicly signals virtues that lean left.

TBF, Biden could have had this win, too. He defended Israel at every step, refused to stop selling them bombs, etc.

I'm a fan of virtue signaling. I think more people should do it.
cferdinandi.bsky.social
THIS! I don't know why people use it like a slur. Signaling the things you stand for and believe in is good, actually.

Shhh... it's already hard enough to fight for UBI!

I'm not exaggerating when I say I LITERALLY laughed out loud at this one. If I had been drinking something I would have ruined my computer.

I kind of want to dress up as Yumyan Hammerpaw for Halloween this year, but I suspect no one will have any idea who the fuck I am.

Yep! I was being entirely serious.

Every time the NYPD goes on strike, crime in the city actually goes down.

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?
A tweet from Bari Weiss that says “"It's shaken me to my core," a lieutenant said of Mamdani's unexpected victory in June. "The absolute dread I feel is palpable.
"
Today in @TheFP our @Olivia_Reingold talks to the cops who say they will walk if Zohran Mamdani is elected in November:”

I wouldn’t be surprised if they started running advertising against your thoughts.

This whole thing feels like it could be an episode of the show Upload

Definitely probable! I have a few neighbors who really lost their shit over the last few years. I’d have to go back and map out when their behavior started to change.

Whole lot of “masks are tyranny!” nonsense around me.

I can’t decide if it was being asked to sacrifice for others or the literal brain damage it causes that got us here.
