It was actually your explanation of CoinVertible.

"EURCV is so locked down that we can’t even think of a way to use it for scamming."

could have come directly from Societe Generale's design brief.

genuinely my favourite piece from you two yet.

the butt is omnipresent. it is our incentive token. our game theory has placed us neatly between the cheeks, the optimum position for sneering at the effluent of the techno optimists

"I don't see disgust as a good reason" shows he hasn't considered reasons why a chihuahua would dissent

i like how he sees the "consent problem" as just a communication thing. "if they could speak, they would be saying yes"

hey chatgpt, how do I bit flip my dog translator?

are the left/right flavours distinct because one wants to accelerate capitalism to its end and the other wants to accelerate it to its growth?

we should post keyword honey pots every few months for culling

it has certainly brought the dickheads out

I have enough evidence to hate him

fucken weasel

that's an electron app. It consumes all your memory and doesn't do anything it's supposed to do

This is unbelievable

A lot of computing concepts carry over.

I feel like an honest person would write this and decide the concept needs more thought.

the strange thing about copilot is that it is about writing code but github isn't a code-writing product (besides that text editor they made), it's a version-control & repository product.

through my deeply-rabbit-holed-product-design-theoretical-perspective lens this translates as another manifestation of trying to make something that is concrete in purpose, which gives concrete accountability to the company behind it, into something general in purpose, which dilutes the concrete acocuntability over time.

"This is a public/private version-controlled repository product"

vs

"This is a collaboration and productivity product"

damn...it makes too much sense that it's cheaper in bulk... I was giving them the benefit of the doubt that they paid more thinking it would be some kind of premium black light.

would UV-C lighting be considerably more expensive? Would there have been obvious high-costs to tip them off that these were no regular black lights?

They have oh so cleverly included "Chapter 10: Advantages of Being a Porn User" which is an empty page. Perhaps I'm giving this document too much of my time but don't take advice from someone who denies there are good things about whatever you are addicted to.

are there any Amsterdam-based sneerers? We're moving there in Jan and I am socially inept

Another good example is going on a first date, your mind throwing out questions about the person you’re about to meet. Then if your enthusiasm starts to fade upon meeting the person in the flesh you’ll start to feel too relaxed, then guilty for feeling this way. The tug of war has started, “I want sex or get me out of here ASAP”, priming you for post-date porn.

is that their dick talking?
