Every major tech company that has laid off devs and will absolutely continue doing so. Smart devs gain insane amounts of productivity out of it, and that’s only accelerating.

Entry-level hiring has plummeted, with no signs of that changing. They don’t care what happens in 5-10 when they need new mid- or senior-level devs. It won’t be their problem by then.

Yeah, you listed lots of the valid reasons that I was talking about. There’s no need to dilute your argument with idiots like this

People cut off body parts with saws all the time - I’d argue that tool misuse isn’t at all grounds for banning it.

There are plenty of completely valid reasons to hate AI. Stupid people using it poorly just isn’t really one of them 🤷‍♂️

You believe some forms of art shouldn’t exist at all just because a small percentage of people can’t experience it? Watercolor as an art form should be abolished? Music without strong bass shouldn’t be allowed? All paintings must incorporate strong textures?

Absolutely wild.

You gave lots of examples that accommodate these disabilities, and that’s awesome and obviously I support that!

What you aren’t arguing for anywhere in this comment is that every artist be required to do these things. Somehow game developers are exempt from this grace? You called out watercolor but don’t appear to be angry at watercolor artists like you are at game developers. Why are all games required to accommodate all people, but other art isn’t? Why is that where your line is drawn?

Video games are the only art medium where people find it acceptable to gate-keep the art from the unskilled or the disabled.

Yes, deaf people are famously well-accomodated by music, and paintings are always very accessible to the blind. Games are the first medium to ever be inaccessible to people.

Don’t want the game to be too easy? Don’t fucking turn down the difficulty. Saying “I don’t want the game to be easier” is really just saying “I know I don’t have any self-control, and would inevitably turn down the difficulty when I hit a roadblock.”

You’re complaining about players opinions, but I’m saying the artist is not required to sacrifice their vision for accessibility reasons. Not all art is for everyone, and that’s fine. You don’t have to play every game.

But my artistic integrity and vision!"

No, shut up. Your vision doesn’t mean squat if my experience with the game is annoying to the point where I don’t even care

Nah, miss me with this bullshit. Not every game is for you, and it doesn’t have to be. An artist is not required to water down their vision because you’re picky.

Context needed: how old are you?

It’s extremely common to lose and gain a huge number of friends in your 20s/30s as you (and they) figure out who you actually are, move around, get busier with actual responsibilities, etc.

What I wanted to say is the endangerment didnt cause actual harm in that case. It doesnt make it right but its still much better than causing actual harm.

But your “actual endangerment” didn’t actually happen either? They ate weed gummies and had no demonstrable negative effects afterwards, according to the article. Why am I required to address your “potential harm” that never occurred while you get to ignore the other side?

Also its not a strawman, I literally said “its like saying”, I made a comparison

Did you not just complain about being pedantic about wording immediately before this sentence? Yes, a comparison can absolutely be a strawman. You’re concocting a scenario that is more favorable to your argument than the one that actually happened.

while only possibly endangering people.

The endangerment isn’t debatable. Do you actually believe it’s only considered endangerment if something bad happens? Insanity. You’re aware that driving under the influence is illegal even if you don’t hit someone, yeah?

Thats like saying driving in any state sober or not is worse than shooting someone in the leg because you can kill someone while driving but a shot in the leg isnt deadly.

If we’re just gonna make up weird, unrelated strawmen I guess I could join in but I don’t have time right now. Maybe I’ll come back later and concoct some inane, irrelevant scenario for you.

You’ll be literally 100% fine after a day if you eat a THC edible. That might not be true if you get hit by a car.

How on earth is that hard to understand?

How on Earth did Death Stranding get 7 nominations? Crazy

Yeah, I know, the drugs were probably planted, but still.

lol… it was half an Adderall (or similar) and 3 joints. They’d be planting way worse shit than that, he’s just a dumb 20-something with a little bit of money. It’s Miami, that’s literally nothing.

If this news was going to move the ticker, it already would have. That being said, I went all-in on Kenvue at $~16, so yes please 🙏

No, no, those are like trains - correlation, not causation

lol, what? “Bubble” doesn’t just mean something is expensive

Every headline about this Windows AI is dumb FUD because turning it all off is trivial

1. Is it actually trivial, though? Does that trivial change turn off all of the various instances of AI scattered throughout the OS?

2. Do you actually believe they won’t release new things under different flags, and that you won’t have to play AI whack-a-mole every update?

lol, came here to say it… just put a scratching post next to it? I know they don’t look good, but it’s a hell of a lot better than this…

2000s was very emo-/scene-heavy. Lots of bracelets and mixing of black and neon.

2010s are the best argument for you, probably. It was more of a blend of things 🤷‍♂️ hipsters and preppy looks got pretty big, but nowhere near as homogenous

2020s will be COVID themed with broccoli hair

People can safely use Windows 10 online for the next decade as long as they follow basic online safety.

This is a fucking braindead take. A few months, a year, maaaybe? But a decade? No chance in hell.
