Does everything really *HAVE* to focus on business, and work? Is there nothing else to life than the world of work? ๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŒฟ

I think the problem does not lie with you. NTs cannot communicate honestly, so how *they* could follow these guidelines is ... puzzling. But good luck anyway! ๐Ÿ˜€

Is there going to be a #Babylon5 reboot or remake? I see whispers, but nothing clear. Does anyone know?

What Gรถdelโ€™s incompleteness theorems say about AI morality | Aeon Essays Many hope that AI will discover ethical truths. But as Gรถdel shows, deciding what is right will always be our burden

AIs are not going to save the world, or change it for the better. They are only there because they will work for #billionaires more cheaply than humans do. Everything today is *FOR PROFIT*.

#AIs will not save us. We need to do that ourselves.

Stop this. Justโ€ฆ Stop it. Stop using "generative AI" for anything that might actually matter, and especially things that, if it gets them wrong, *Might Fucking Kill You.*

Why does this need to be said? Why is this not obvious??? Why is this not the default way of fucking operating?! What the FUCK.

โ€œWe need to have a debate aboutโ€”โ€

No. No more debates. You lot have shown you canโ€™t face up to the truth even when it is set out clearly in front of you.

Trans rights now. In all levels of society. Or you are my enemy.

This is a smear, no less than the anti-Semitic lies that stopped Mr Corbyn from winning power. To express sympathy and support for a people who have borne the brutal military occupation of their homeland for 75 years is *NOT* the same as supporting Iran, Islam, terrorism, fascism, or anything else.

"โ€˜Vibe codingโ€™ describes work environments that thrive on energy, fluid creativity, and fast-paced decision-making."

I.e. VibeCoding is a lazy and unprofessional way of avoiding doing the design before you proceed with the implementation. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

I've been using artificial intelligence since the start and it's come a long way but it's still far off from being what you could do to actually help people and benefit society

"Google is revolutionizing #software development"

Really? I'll believe it when I see it. A new way [for the ignorant, lazy and unskilled] to 'design' software, emerges every 10 years or so. Is this just another of those?

Yes, it's both. It's so easy to forget one or the other, when the truth is both, together. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

People donโ€™t understand that ADHD isnโ€™t a lack of willpower. Itโ€™s a neurological condition where the brain is essentially working against itself. Thatโ€™s why even basic tasks can feel overwhelming and why motivation alone isnโ€™t enough to overcome it.

maybe im too idealistic, but i want to live in a world built on kindness, love and hope
and i hope to contribute to it as much as i can
it's also probably something that will influence my art (and i want it to be that way)

They are *obsessed* with reductive compartmentalising, seemingly unaware that there is no formal *description* of what autism *IS*!

[DSM-5 etc just list good diagnostic *indicators* that an NT might observe externally.]

So yes, well said! ๐Ÿ˜€
