Well, minimum 32 years, as presumably there would be some inbox time and drafting time on either end, misunderstandings and subsequent discussion being so critical to avert when followups take a while.
Reading, Shadowrun, walking. Living and working in Toronto. Sysadmin (or whatever it’s called this month). He/him.

I came here for his full-throated support of Apple Music staying installed no matter what and I am so sorely disappointed.
Last year, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas, came out against the effort by Próspera to exploit the dispute resolution system to undermine Honduran sovereignty. “In the case of Próspera,” they write, “a ZEDE located largely on the Honduran island of Roatán, investors have created a governing council where 44 percent of members are appointed by the private company and 22 percent are elected by landowners in a system where their number of votes is proportional to the size of their property.”
Why are they being described as crypto-libertarians when it turns out they are moving the electoral clock back two hundred years to before the abolishment of rotten boroughs? That’s a significantly conservative political arrangement there.
I’m always very nonplussed about what claims to pass for thought in white nationalist crowds.
The stopped-clock moment in this whole is definitely where he dimly grasps that Republican audiences are way more openly positive to white nationalism than they were.
A really good lesson on offline backups of things like issue trackers, though.
This whole festival sounds like it could have used conflict of interest subtitles. When somebody’s voice is saying “I actually think that AI (blah, blah)” there’s one subtitle with the words and another with phrasing such as “(Person)'s annual stock award will be increased by (number)% if paid subscriptions to (company)'s AI product rise by (number)%.”
Have an upvote.
Are we keeping a list of things that refute CEO worship? Here’s an item for the list.
I haven’t paid that much attention to the software and platforms behind all this. Now that you mention it, yes, they are all products not underlying technologies. A bit like if somebody was a Zeus web server admin versus AOL web server admin without anybody being just a web server admin. Or like if somebody had to choose between Windows or Solaris without just considering operating systems.
Then again, what with all the compute and storage and ongoing development needed I’m not convinced that AI currently can be a gratis (free as in beer) thing in the same way that they just hand out web servers.
I haven’t read the book but the article is definitely in the list.
Edit: Wait, turns out I had another article in the list. I will add this one above.
“If you’ve ever wondered about the Libertarian response to having one’s neighbours killed by bears, it’s about halfway down this article.”

The sheer comedy of libertarians rules-lawyering international law for their intermittently flooded microstate though. As opposed to, say, using free contracts between individuals.
Now I have another example of libertarianism for my list if I actually need to talk about libertarianism instead of just point and laugh.
I think you’ve nailed it.
Found a startup, get paid C-level salaries for a few years, exit or not, repeat.
“This brought back memories of the crush and electrical injuries I’ve heard of when there’s insufficient datacentre safety.”

That was a bit surprising to me too, apparently no floor scale in the airlock leading to the server floor, or not even an airlock just a door. Also no security supervision, or at least one which was letting things slide.
More succinct: Nobody think of themselves as the zombie in the apocalypse.
(Assuming for the purposes of my post that this isn’t just an updated instance of Poe’s Law.)
Weird how these authors never think this through to the part where they’re the scrawny whiners spending time posting annoying things on the internet, and the obvious targets of the people training for actual things (war, paramilitarism, martial arts, target shooting competitions, et cetera) to pick fights with so they have somebody to beat up.
I applaud your optimism that most people can do this without AI but have you gone and met people? Most people are not that capable of producing torrents of shameless bullshit as conscience or awareness of social and/or professional costs rear their head at some point.
