So, hypothetically, if I were to say that the Israeli government is committing genocide and Trump is a fascist, would they not let me in? Well, I don't want to travel to the US while it's reigned by a fascist government anyways, so let's go: The Israeli government is committing genocide and Trump is a fascist.

Greed, power and corruption.

The media companies have had less and less power every year since the internet went mainstream. Big tech supplanted them a long time ago.

Me, I do support it. Now you know somebody. And you should go look up the definition of censorship.

Censorship is exactly what this is. If the fine is paid or not Europe will still be filed with online scams. This is almost defamatory as to suggest that Europeans were defrauded by blue check marks while making no claim evidence or suggestion of injury. (no damages). In scientific terms it's confirmation bias

> Censorship is exactly what this is.

What of this is censorship?

Not a single word about removing anything in this.

It's technically not censorship. Just a massive fine for not censoring

Life hack: Announce bug that brings your entire network down as scheduled maintenance.

I know Germans like to complain, but the ICE network is still one of the best in Europe, especially given its size.

That does not mean that we shouldn't invest more money into improving it. But I would not count it as a lost cause.

Hopefully, when the current government is replaced by a more progressive one at some point (let a man dream), we see more political will.

If it only were so easy

This is always the same age-old discussion: Can you separate the art from the arists? And unsurprisingly, different people have different views on it. Even if you disagree, you should be able to understand why people don't want to use a product if their usage of that product makes the owner and CEO more powerful (and they think them being more powerful is a bad thing for humanity).

Edit to add a simple example:

Musk's wealth is mostly tied up in Tesla -> You think Musk uses his wealth to wield political power, political power that makes the world a worse place -> You still think Teslas are good cars -> Even though you think that, you don't want to spend your money on buying a Tesla, because this will make Musk more wealthly -> Start at the beginning

It is irrelevant whether we can separate the art from the artist, especially in this matter, when both the art and the artist are bad.

This is true, but it started way earlier than AI with software development though. A lot of software developers' job is just being ticket monkies, adding small things or fixing bugs for a huge company that nobody cares about. The alienation is real.

This is, of course, an attribute of capitalism.

Like carpenters, gardeners and farmers, there are very few software developers who truly have the luxury to treat their work as a craft and not a factory output.

How beautifully put, and I couldn't agree more. I feel exactly the same way.

However, I am still unconvinced that software development will go down this way. But if woking as a software developer will require managing multiple agents at the same time instead of crafting your own code — you can count me out, too.

Sounds like something John Oliver should buy on his show
