What is exciting about getting pablum spoonfed by a data center owned by trillionaires?
replyI'd rather go to the library and read a book.
Why in the world are you choosing to live that way?
replyI'm writing the best music of my life, realizing games and art projects I never had time for, and writing higher quality software in addition to dramatically more of it. Who has time for pablum?
How exactly are you using these tools that you have that experience?
You are actually not doing much of that.
replyYou have become a spectator.
Your legs broke? Go do that
replyWhat does it have to do with legs? This site has turned a mental hospital with AI patients.
replyIt's an expression. "You're legs broke?" here means "What's stopping you from going to the library and reading a book?"
replyIt's a grovel-for-investor-dollars site that we've long pretended is for serious technical discussion. Comments should always be filtered through that lens.
replyYou can do both. I still find time to read a couple books a month.
replyYou have agency and can choose your own adventures. If you don't like something, don't do it.
Who is stopping you?
replyFalse dichotomies make for terrible conversation.
reply"Find your path forward!" he shouted with glee, as he ran toward the cliff.
So do platitudes.
