The percentage is closer to 75% than 95%.

Scapegoat implies he wasn’t also a pedophile.

My understanding on this is that Apple is expanding existing contracts. Some involve doubling billion dollar contracts which adds up faster than this deal.

One of the things they announced when they made the original pledge was 20k for new high income jobs which is easily billions per year in salaries. Plus this requires expanding their various campuses because they do not allow work from home, so several more billion there.

These tech companies are massive so expanding their existing footprints adds up very quickly. Other mega tech corps like Meta and Google are increase spending by tens of billions just on AI expansion, however they haven’t pledge that be specific to the US.

That’s not what I said.

I can’t say I’m surprised how adamantly people want to play the disability card. Life’s hard. My family is full of people with adhd and the ones that lean into it are all doing very very poorly. Those of us that have worked out coping mechanisms have all increased our socioeconomic position.

It’s your life. Do with it what you want.

This sort of thinking isn’t unique to ADHD. For example, there are also Little people who refuse to see themselves as disabled.

That doesn’t mean those who choose to see themselves are disabled are wrong but anyone who demands someone see themselves as disabled is not only wrong, they’re also an asshole.

Life is all about coping. Feeling like your neurological differences makes you weak is one way to cope but not for me.

Good alternative, not fantasy.

I’ve worked at a company that used both. One for development the other for support tickets.

The idea that people would use ServiceNow for development tasks is scary.

Disagree.

It may make one smarter if it causes them to have to work harder than others to reach the same level.

With speed it is too easy to be distracted getting things done quickly and efficiently can become a coping skill.

You have definitely never worked with a regex guru.

I’ve seen far worse movies, movies that are truly unwatchable.

I know nothing about the source material and I get the impression that’s the difference here between those who think this is a terrible movie instead of just another mediocre comic book movie. As someone who had never read comics, they’re all equally meh to me but I wouldn’t call any of them unwatchable.

Just going to post another reply to you in this thread to let you know I agree with everything you’re saying.

The vibe of these people is the exact same vibes I get from right wing people elsewhere in the internet. They literally blame the same people for the similar reasons.

It’s eerie until I remember all the stats on American education. Anyone who talks with these levels of certainty are fools. Every time. Every one.

All up and down this thread is just utter disregard for any aspect of reality that contradicts the narrative.

Welcome to Lemmy!

Unlike Reddit and its right wing trolls, we have leftish wannabes who are clearly are intellectually on even ground with any random right wing troll and they will downvote anyone who disagrees into oblivion at best and ban you most of the time.

These threads are no different than any r/conservative echo chamber. If their points could face criticism, they wouldn’t need to downvote and they wouldn’t need safe places.

I like this.

Kids are already taught to look for “context clues”

Namespacing would require the author explicitly define the namespace.

I would also add versioning as a year/month and localization.

Dinner?

There is a grey area for things that can be reflashed or rebrained

No, this should be the goal!

We need certified driving and accident avoidance systems and local vehicle to vehicle communication to facilitate lane changes, also certified. All systems independent, acting with consensus.

My experience is that a lot of rural people are in healthcare.

May they have the day they voted for when they face losing employment and the few remaining rural providers.

Exasperations

I know those guys, some are super earnest and kind (and most are more self-aware than this guy)

Condolences. They’ve normalized it for you and you are becoming them.

I’d burn it all down at this point, honestly. It’s not worth it.

Yeah. The machine you’re grinding is shit. Burn it down and find a grind where you aren’t near dystopian slide engineers.

There needs to be the Music app for Video app and maybe it’s closer to the Postcast app but it’s all there.

Any anyone that’s missing, we have to assume you’re in it for the exposure and we’re doing you the favor by spreading your expression of free speech while you deal with how you want to fund it.

I didn’t commission it so it’s not my responsibility to make you whole on this endeavor. Stop pretending we owe you a specific amount of money.

No service was rendered. No service fee should be charged. If you want your content to remain a secret then why did you release it to not a form that can be copied at no cost to you.

I strongly argue that much of what we do around copyright is a violation of the first amendment in a thousand ways.

The fact that you can calculate damages against us is silly. Did I libel you? I recorded some knowledge I was given that was relayed to someone else.

The fact that you’ve provided something that can be copied perfectly is on you. Doesn’t make you a fucking word god. How faulty does our memory need to be before this game of telephone because legal in the eyes of copyright?

Using a magical language doesn’t override out right to use our free will to study our encountered world.

It is unjust to restrict us from sharing our findings. This is our free expression. These are chains that no corporate or other person or persons can be trusted to possess as empherial as they may.

Any legal framework that forces us to silence ourselves is crime against our humanity.

The longer you refuse the faster we build a video app that mathematically routes around any that may be constructed. Your imagination may be limited but the laws of mathematics finds a way.

How can you punish our innate desire to communicate in clarity.
