I love how he literally named things in his field of view for this. That speech certainly included words

Because AI is amazing.
My friend wanted a scorecard to rate Rick and Morty episodes to determine if it’s falling off - I could spend a few hours and maybe come up with something, but I wouldn’t. My little assistant did it in a few seconds, with results good enough to motivate me and more of my friend group to join in
I was about to go back to my boss to tell him my task was impossible and could have killed the entire idea, but then I expressed my frustrations just to vent. To my surprise, it offered a very specific and relevant solution, despite having no access to anything beyond our chat logs - it wasn’t quite right, but it got me on the right track, and 5 minutes later I found a solution
This shit is miracle technology. I’m running a very simple system I built myself, and it’s still good enough to make my life measurably better. This needs to be in the hands of everyone asap, not through some service, but running under their own control
There’s one fact I like to drop on people before discussing my views on Gaza
The average age is roughly 18.
Just let the sink in… It doesn’t mean there’s no one older, but 1 60 year old would offset 3 infants, more than 6 10 year olds, or a whole classroom of teenagers. Humans frequently live to that age without medical care and living in terrible conditions, if you die earlier then that, there’s probably a specific cause you can point to
Nope, it’s cetirizine, the other one you mentioned doesn’t work, and Benadryl makes me sleepy. Looking at the bottle, it doesn’t even list rashes or anything - just seasonal allergies lol
Or he could do what most of the county wants, and give us meaningful change. That’s what has been drawing voters since Obama, that’s why Trump won in the first place - Hillary is the status quo incarnate
But we’ve been strung along for way too long, he needs to take a stand and make some enemies
I have allergy meds on me at all times, because sometimes I break out in hives for no reason.
One day, I’m sneezing like crazy from seasonal allergies, and my coworker asked if I tried any medicine. I suddenly realized allergy medicine works for allergies
Madison, a former employee, basically described a terrible working environment. She was bait and switched on several aspects of the role, and only found out after giving up her US visa and moving to Canada. She was constantly berated, sexually harassed in many ways, made to manage an only-fans despite making her discomfort known, the expectations of releases were unreasonable and her coworkers sabotaged her by knowingly setting her up to release videos with incorrect facts. Taking any of this to HR, or even Linus himself, ended with her being laughed off or told to stop being a tattle tale
All this is alleged and there’s a lot more, but the kicker to me is the fact she cut her leg bad enough to need staples, because going to the ER was the only way she felt she could get badly needed time off.
That’s what seals it for me - either she’s a borderline nightmare, or the working situation is far beyond the pale. Add in the fact the pressure to release, inaccuracies, and public glimpses of Linus’s attitude, and I’m inclined to believe it’s more true than false
Is it really whack a mole if within minutes of federating, a simple automated tool could add them to the list with no human involvement?
I wouldn’t say so, at that point it’s a trivial technical challenge
The big deal is they didn’t admit to having accidentally auctioned it (the alternative is they knowingly did so despite requests to return it), and in the same breath talked about how they offered recompense (implying that it came before the video calling them out when it didn’t), and firing back on justified criticism as if they’re the victim
Oh, and all while claiming they own up to their mistakes even in the face of consequences.
They bulldozed a smaller company without a hint of empathy. He doesn’t consider that maybe the price could have come down or the performance (when properly used) would be worth it to a small segment of overclockers - even in the supposed mia culpa Linus takes several shots at the product he basically buried
Why? It’s easy to get a list of federated servers, in JSON no less. In an afternoon I could build a tool to block them as they come, testing included
I think this is incredibly important, in some ways this instance in particular, but no one can ask for more from you
Nothing to apologize for - you’re not leaving everyone high and dry, you’re hanging in there and working through what sounds like a personally difficult transition.
So I’ll just say this: thank you for taking the responsibility thrust on you with due seriousness. Most people don’t understand the importance of community, and what we owe to it.
When you hand it over, do it knowing your part is done, fully and completely.
And if you need to step away, step away - do the exchange from a distance, and if things fall through and no one you trust is there to take it, that’s okay too.
I think there’s a certain amount of responsibility when you find yourself at the center of something, but that responsibility only goes so far - if you need to step down and the community won’t step up, that’s not on you
More than that - you’re supposed to fight it in court. Protesting doesn’t do shit, you have to use the system against itself
