I’ve always said that Service Workers should get at least one murder pass per year. Would keep everyone on their toes.

Definitely not, it depends on which airline too. The union when I worked for AA was pretty toothless since Reagan busted them up back in the 80s.

Im just saying that you can see the influence there Civil War had on Marx’s later works. He realized that American slaves had much more in common with the proletariat than he previously saw (tacit abandonment of the concept of lumpenproletariat).

He also saw that the working classes of both America and England were capable of understanding longer term goals that may be immediately harmful to them (striking to prevent the supply of raw material from a slave source).

It has been a while since I’ve read the book though, so I’m a bit rusty. I just know that you get to see a lot of his internal thought processes hitting points that were later adopted by ML leaders.

One of the best youtubers

Only recommending M&E because they had a large influence on all Communist movements (obviously), and this was after the Manifesto, so you get to see a lot of the “newer” ideas taking hold (the ones that evolved into ML/“tankie” theory).

For understanding the Civil War from the perspective of the slaves, anything else is probably much better since Marx was interfacing mostly with American and English workers at the time. I will say that all of this ended up combining into ML over time though. The US Civil War had a massive influence on all theory that came after.

I feel comfortable being blatantly sarcastic here lol. I’ve been telling people to read The Civil War in the United States by Marx for years on this site.

Obviously the US Civil War had an effect on the revolutionary consciousness of the world. English workers were actively organizing against the textine owners and holding rallies/striking. Marx was running around documenting the working class movements in the North and in England.

The positions of the Abolitionists were later absorbed by many Communists, and expanded on with the concepts of Wage Slavery. The black revolutionaries in America all built their consciousness in the context of the Civil War.

Reconstruction is used frequently as an example of liberal failure and the need for an organized vanguard (“tankies”) to solidify the gains of revolution.

Lenin’s dual revolution idea was derived from the failure of the American workers and liberated slaves to sieze power.

The Civil War in the United States is a collection of articles and letters from Marx and Engels that follows the whole war.

Huh, I wonder if Communists have written about the class dynamics at play during the civil war? Probably not…

The Tetris company kinda sucks.

If you have 3.5 hours, Acerola did a deep dive on the history of Tetris and looked at literally every officially released game.

It’s pretty wild how even after like 1 or 2 generations of not being “purebred” they just become really sweet and playful. Maybe still have a bit more prey drive than other dogs, but it really wouldn’t be hard to “kill the Pit” by just shutting down the breeders and letting them become normal dogs.

That makes sense, if it’s an open protocol they should support it.

Was it specifically for Google Wallet? Or was it just generic NFC payment system?

No one has ever accused me of being AI and I far finger like every other word because I have giant hands lol.

This isn’t anything new, is just techbros at the reigns now instead of the church or nation state.

I know, the reason I shared that example is because there is no humanizing the LLM and it’s used exclusively for its ability to pretty effectively parse syntax to find common higher level bugs in specific C frameworks.

For context: I never use LLMs when programming because I find them to be more of a hassle. They show me down and muddy the water on design principles.

Even a “bad” design pattern that you’re consistent with is 1000x better than a “good” design pattern that is inconsistently applied. LLMs are fantastic at the later. Things that look great in isolation, but begin to fall apart when they come up against the weight of a larger project.

Especially when it’s a new project without a ton of existing code for it to kinda copy/paste.

Using one to find minor use after frees that are almost impossible to hit, or duplicated calls is fine by me though. Those are usually a pain to find anyways, and there’s almost always 100 more important things to spend time on. If someone wants to burn tokens creating a backlog of easily fixed, reproducible errors like that all while disclosing exactly what they’re using to find them sure. That’s not annoying at all, especially when they only open the PRs after discussion with the project maintainers.

Here’s one of the few examples where I’ve seen it be actually used in an okay way.

Full transparency, used to generate a standard check and not do giant thousand line PRs, honesty about false positives, and no bloated claims really.

But like, for job security

It almost seems like each game has a different model? The Halo one was dogwater, and even that one varied wildly with how it “upscaled” the character models.

It’s almost certainly pinging a database with a game specific model.

Bit of a Freudian slip lol. They are celebrating because it gave them everything they wanted. Inflated military budget and infinite surveillance state. The only cost was millions of lives, but who’s counting?
