Thanks for the feedback. I added a classifier that’s currently running, along with a filter so you can look at engineering roles only.

They're just scared of China releasing better open weights, nipping at their heels. With so much investor cash on the line, they have to create this narrative to scare the public into forcing regulation. Why would they want to be regulated? It seems counterintuitive, but it's because they want regulatory capture.

My usage limits were reset this morning. I'm already 90% through my weekly limits. This have _never_ happened before. They should reset the limits for everyone.

The only reason I don't use tmux is because of how annoying it is to look at scrollback. Am I using it wrong?

Because they can't as a result of private equity firms and hedge funds buying houses for investment purposes. Without legislation, people are going to be renting for the rest of their lives like modern day serfs.

It's not "casual". Did you read the paper I linked?

Of course, what you're saying is obvious. I'm just asking questions to get people to think about the ramifications of technology. Society is the sum of all the individual choices people make, which are influenced and amplified by technology, either for good or bad.

> A woman can choose to decouple having sex with getting pregnant.

How does that change the social dynamics of mating? Is increasing promiscuity a good thing?

> A person can choose to live hundreds of miles away from their family yet still visit them every weekend.

> A person can choose to move to a new country, halfway around the world, and still have their parents be > able to see and converse with the grandchildren every night.

Why did this person choose to move physically away from their tribe? To slave away at a job they don't care about? Would they have chosen to move away if the tech to communicate long distance didn't exist?

> I can choose to talk to a person who speaks another language and have a computer translate for us.

Is it good to use translation tech as a crutch and not emotionally immerse yourself in the culture?

> I can choose to have my tooth decay treated without experiencing horrific pain.

Why do you have a poor diet? Why do you consume so much sugar? Why don't you brush and floss?

> A compound fracture is not an automatic sentence of death or lifelong severe disability.

Do you take more risks because you know that a fracture won't end you since medicine can heal you?

It seems to me that technology is often used as a band-aid solution. Or it enables certain types of behaviors that when proliferated on a societal level can have drastic consequences.

It’s ok to be cringe. Try expressing yourself sometime instead of always conforming.

Am I the only one who doesn't want this dystopian future? "Designed for living in the moment"?...no, this is definitely the exact opposite of living in the moment.

Do you really need to upgrade your 3 year old iPhone if you think about it? Those are still quite fast and can do everything you need. To me it seems like a waste, but you do you.
