I found the website you linked to be easy to digest. Impressed with their work, from the perspective of someone who uses Linux but doesn’t know too much about this stuff (other than patch good). I like how they gave credit to both the human and AI.
Yeah that’s a good point.
Isn’t there some optimization point where you grow your wealth and status throughout life, presumably using the machine of exploitation, then at some point begin “paying it back” through means such a charity, helping around your community, or (depending on how well you did) exerting industry or political influence for change?
I find it hard to believe opting out of the economy is the best way to foment change, especially when there are so many out there without any such scruples, happy to scoop up what you’d carve out for your ethical ideas.
But wait is that a flat $5 fee for any amount? That can quickly outcompete 1%…
Hmm that makes sense, thanks.
I know there’s psychological research that says any of us could become Nazis, that we’re just products of our environment, but I dunno man. I see the things happening in the world and I don’t know how I could ever get from A to B. I think the systems are just good at finding the evil people and putting them in those positions.
That would explain its robustness across culture and history, but I can’t come up with even a shitty evopsych explanation. Bigger dicks scoop out more of the previous male’s ejaculate??
Doesn’t that take votes away from the larger parties that have a chance of keeping out the conservatives (or liberals, whichever it is for you)?
You may enjoy reading Anathem if you haven’t already.
What do the scissors on pink’s shirt mean?
I’m a beginner to intermediate level home desktop user of Linux. I think I represent a small or at least low priority class of people with complaints, but for me it’s that it’s been confusing to learn how the distro is glued together.
I find sometimes things are handled in pre-systemd ways, sometimes with systemd, and sometimes custom scripts. Basically it is mentally hard having something on the system that duplicates functionality and not knowing which I should use to not clash with the vision of the distro maintainers.
Actually this is really a complaint about distro documentation not systemd. If you know of any documentation about the design decisions behind any major distro, I’m interested. Not forums where people piece together how to fix things, or wikis that document findings on how things behave in a distro. Something from the maintainers like, “Here’s are the scripts we added that are above/beyond the base distro (if Debian based) or above/beyond POSIX”. The only place I’ve seen this is Linux From Scratch.
