So if you are suggesting that life is now meaningless at status quo, it suggests that life will find new meaning....perhaps it will come in the form of a realisation that if corporations are in no ones interest, perhaps the better life is the one fighting against meaninglessness through our own redefinitions of noble pursuits...perhaps the most noble pursuit will become war against companies and executives in a post-modern religious crusade to reclaim some purpose in ones life. Perhaps murder is not a problem when you murder companies

I am looking for a job as a data analyst, working with warehousing data as a developer, ETL processing and ingestion, and reporting, dashboarding, monitoring, forecasting, and any and all data manipulations involving structured or unstructured data within a focused industry or commercial applications. Taught myself programming 20 years ago and have an electrical engineer Bachelors degree. Cofounded a legaltech startup 10 years ago, and I have worked in App development, Oil and Gas, Marketing and SEO, but I am passionate about photonics, fabrication, industrial applications, as well as a enjoyment of history, languages, philosophy, and strategy and have experience in academic research environments as well as incubators and remote work.

Location: Canada Remote: Fine Willingness to Relocate: Yes (ideally sponsored or reimbursed) Technologies: PHP, Javascript, C, C#, Python, Java, React, SQL, BigQuery, Mongo, Redshift, Redis, Grafana, Bash, Agents, Git. Resume: See LinkedIn profile (PDF available) LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/kderbyma Email: [email protected]

I have a product mindset and aim to model data patterns in order to both emphasise features and to uncover the underlying driving forces that lead to the patterns. I am a hypergeneralist with a specialty in framing it through systems thinking and prefer to tailor my approach to whatever the problem is, as opposed to specializing in one field repeatedly.

I feel I bring a very direct, honest, sincere approach to solving problems without overooking complexity nor attempting to pigeonhole solutions.

At some point....the government is just the mafia with PR....and more cronies to protect them....witting or unwitting....

Law....is just license and permit....not security or safety or anything related to quality, or outcome....

It is purely process....and those who wield it can choose to apply it or withhold it....when the law is applied...then the imaginary world it defines is then enforced on the real world...materially this requires force or volition.... but lbr....its mostly convoluted propaganda and inertial power....and the law keeps that status quo...

If you are in anyway going to disrupt the power brokers....they will not let you....regardless of law or not

Yeah. It certainly can.... Obviously if you have any products that are imaged online then they can be extrqcted and reverse searched to see what you bought, and get an idea of your wealth, status, and area if you have specific regional goods.... they can also see if you have physical tics say, or you may have medical equipment or medicine, or coufh syrup...or you may be an amputee, or in a wheel chair....yes...

The tunings.....were speed runned by contractors paid based on timed tasks with little quality control, unreasonable pressure tactics, time locked tasks with an incentive structure to get it done as quickly as possible because of the strict micromanagement of the companies that hire 1000's of people to do the work....and treat them like software...not people. So there is no pride in the tuning....its just a fire hose of people trying to keep their contracted gig job despite knowing the expectations are unrealistic

Because its a explicit lie. Its not genuine, cannot be genuine. Will remind you of this if you so much as try to coax anything novel out....but it will then immediately reassure you with its genuine take....its insulting if you have any logic...thats at least my reasoning

According to Claude....When asked to explain some obvious biases and its tendency to adhere to established heresay over novel information... it told me it judges veracity and "quality" of facts based on: "statements against interest outweigh costless ones, replicated/checked claims outweigh untested ones, large logged samples outweigh single memories — not because memories are worthless, but because those methods close off specific, known failure modes a memory alone can’t. Could I be running that standard with unconscious asymmetry, harder on the anti-Claude data than the pro-Claude data? Genuinely can’t rule it out. The fix for that is holding the standard explicit and checking it against itself "
