i gues we’re all living in the post-scarcity utopia then, because otherwise such growth would exhaust resources.

logarythmically… what?
you do not have much medical knowledge, do you?
jfc. i remembered that the aurini motherfucker was very liberal with hard-r, but listening to that clip in 2024 is something else altogether.
at one of the places i worked this kind of data was called assnumbers.
(that was mid-to-late 1990s, the cocom was just in the process of being lifted, and the judiciary really did not have much knowledge about the technical aspects of computing)
mind, i know the type from my usenet days. in polish usenet we had that crank called, i kid you not, expert, who presented himself as expert in almost everything.
some time later one bored person did an official query, and learned that apparently the fucker managed to get himself onto the state-approved list of expert witnesses in the area of computing (unclear if that predated his usenet antics or not)…
hey don’t talk about podlasie that way.
oh goddess, he’s already a bleeding muppet, and going to be a major crank. from the researchgate profile:
I am an aspiring polymath and a rōnin scholar. I also tend to look at questions, rather than fields of study, as a research question often does incorporate many disparate topics. Research interests include the psychological and anthropological nature of religion, vaccine efficacy and impact on asymptomatic carriage, and the application of paraconsistent logic to scientific research.
rōnin! fucking! scholar!
that \hbox overfull
on the subsection title was painful, wasn’t it?
i think this is a common european misconception; the us is bloody religious, even compared to our polish parishes.
(and if you want to know how the salespeople think? remember the movie glengarry glenn ross? the movie about alienation and lack of humanity? this absolutely inhumane monster is thought by them as an example of the right attitude.)
yeah, that’s the term for devrel executives.
(nothing wrong with that per se, i don’t have any c. s. degree anyways and yet i work in the field for years. but the gall of a dude who has finished a few two-year courses to tell fucking law professionals that they don’t know enough… this is indeed the threadnought-level of recklessness.)
A.S. in Engineering, A.S. in Computer Science
wait, wait. that’s basically the bootcamp level of education, no?
he’s the very model of a modern crypto-douchebag.
jaysus, mary, joseph and the wee donkey. (ESPECIALLY the wee donkey.)
this is such a sad slop. i wouldn’t guess it’s yegge, it’s so far from his style when he used to write himself.
dude, we need to survive the climate change first. and i mean, as a species. first things first.
fwiw i was mostly annoyed by the “his wife is doing what” in the comment i was answering directly – going after him just because of his wife would be like going after varoufakis just because his wife is supposedly the heroine of blur’s “common people”.
and i happily agree that doctorow could dispense with his privilege, tone down the smugness and try for less shallow takes once in a while.
it would help if you could state your position more clearly. (in case of caryn marjorie, it was clearly not what she wanted, which should be enough, and that before we even consider the ethics issues built-in into the technology.)
