That's if you're going through insurance. They'll scan anyone with a check in their hand.

I'm getting, "hey man, could you help me up" vibes, to which my answer would be a resounding "NO!"

You can do that even if it wasn't vibe coded. What a time to be alive!

Sure, in an ideal world, but in reality they can always come up with probable cause. All they have to do is say they smell something illegal, even if they don't. They can make up whatever they want, and there's not much one can do about it.

I wish my colleagues respected todo lists. Must be nice to just be able to get though a day without constant interruptions. ::sad face::

Some things are more than just jobs - they are callings. Journalism and teaching are two. People wouldn't do them if they were just jobs, because they don't pay enough to cover the headaches.

> make doing that a serious crime

Nitpick, but it would only make "showing others how to do that" a crime.

Funny how the more it keeps "declining", the more it stays the same. Once you realize there's nothing new under the sun, things become a lot less stressful. Things are only declining if you're looking for it, as has always been the case. [Insert quote about mountain and river here.] (And yes, I'm old AF.)

We're still in the AI-use-is-black-and-white phase. Most people still think it's more than just a tool still, cuz it still seems like magic to them. We'll get there, and then it will just be a tool like any other. Hopefully then we'll start holding the people behind it accountable when appropriate, instead of allowing it to be used as a scapegoat, as if it has agency.

I don't think it's possible to make it to the national level as an honest politician. Crony capitalism has ensured that every politician in Washington is bought and paid for in one way or another. God bless the few state and many local politicians that remain honest, and God bless their rose tinted glasses, too. Unfortunately, it never lasts.
