Hello margin-call, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of margin-call

> i.e. not looking at the actual code

You must be kidding me.

The most important lesson from Gen AI is that it does not matter how much money you have, make, lose, or spend because in the long run everyone is…

So the logical next step is to focus on Biological Immortality and short of that Digital Immortality. God speed everyone.

Meanwhile, homebrew install instructions:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/inst...)"

Then it prompts user for admin previledges. Also, it does not support installing as a local non-admin user.

Is anyone still working on functional immortality? Are we going to get SAGI before it? How is the head/body freezing scene nowadays?

This is a very condescending toward Vietnamese tech people. According to Twitter/X, Vietnam’s GDP just surpassed Thailand and it’s on its way to joining the Great East Asian prosperity zone by becoming the last country to become fully industrialized and very rich. Many tech jobs in the US will move to Vietnam in the coming few years. You will be surprised where your future Tech conferences will be located.

The complainer is a self-proclaimed policy wonk. I am sure he knows all the corrext policies to enforce include NSFW content policies. Heck, looking at his comment history, I get the impression that he might be a policy wonk in everything.

Good riddance. The web needs to shed all the old baggages like this to move forward. Looking forward to MCP becoming part of the browser.

Replying to JumpCrisscross response below:

>> Negative racial stereotype as a definition of racism is the classical definition of racism

>It wasn’t racial stereotyping. It was stereotyping a country’s population as sad and desperate. Saying X country’s quality of life sucks isn’t racist.

>If they’d said or implied Cambodian Americans are also sad and desperate, sure. But they didn’t.

This is a distinction without a difference. A negative stereotype about the people of a country is a stereotype about that country's dominant ethnic group. Their geographic location is irrelevant.

By this logic, saying "All Japanese people are [X]" is not a racial stereotype as long as you're only talking about the ones in Japan. It only magically becomes a racial stereotype when they are "Japanese Americans." This doesn't make sense.

There's a fundamental difference between:

Criticizing a state: "Cambodia's economy is struggling and its government is corrupt." Stereotyping a people: "The people of Cambodia are inherently sad and desperate." The original comment did the latter. That is, by definition, a negative ethnic stereotype.
