Knowing the context doesn’t really change anything about this tweet though.

Me acing Raven’s progressive matrix tests: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!
Me dropping out of uni: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.
Never ever board a ship if someone calls her unsinkable.
The point is not to be a gender detector. The point is to be a vague heuristic to discriminate by. It’s like ad network tracking. They really don’t know me as well as they think they do and pretend they do, but if they can convince themselves and their customers, it’s enough. If computer gets your gender wrong, well nobody’s perfect and it’s a sacrifice they’re willing to let you make. If the computer gets your gender wrong because you’re queer, gender nonconforming or a person of colour, all the better — that’s what the customers want anyway.
Now to be fair, C really is quite close to what the machine is really like, if by C you mean B and by machine you mean PDP-7.
It’s also highly portable in the sense that all twenty or thirty well-formed, standard-compliant and nontrivial C programs ever written can be compiled to a mind-bogglingly huge variety of hardware and OS targets and even work correctly on some of them.

You (group A) think C is simple, that it can be thought of as portable assembly, that it teaches you how computers actually work, and that it’s easy to avoid memory safety errors with good programming discipline, and is therefore fine.
You (group B) think C is deceptively complex, is far removed from current-day real world hardware semantics, abstracts memory in an outdated and overly simplified manner, and that it’s very hard for even professionals to write programs that are correct to the extent of equivalent programs in memory safe languages, therefore C shouldn’t be use for new software development.
I think C is deceptively complex, is far removed from current-day real world hardware semantics, abstracts memory in an outdated and overly simplified manner, and that it’s very hard for even professionals to write programs that are correct to the extent of equivalent programs in memory safe languages, which are some of the features that make C so fun and exciting. Like rawdogging a one night stand!
We are not the same.

—Oh, we got both kinds. We got day trading and betting.
Grift tech that claims to do awful shit that ruins everyone’s lives, but really just makes Stanford grads sit around pretending to invent something while funneling VC money directly in their bloodstreams.
You’d think these would overflow the evil scale and end up back into being ethical but really they’re just doing the same thing as the non-vaporware evil companies with just some extra steps.
Thanks, Google. You know, I used to be pretty good at getting consistent, useful results from your search engine, but the improvements you’ve made to it since the make me feel like I really might need a fucking prompt engineering course to find things on the internet these days. By which I mean something that’ll help you promptly engineer the internet back into a form where search engines work correctly.

ffs it’s in public domain just use a still from the staircase silhouette like everyone else
It’s open source trust me I wrote that ELF file directly with C-x M-c M-butterfly.

God knows I like a good DSL, but “complexity over drudgery” just sounds miserable. I also wonder what kind of stuff they’re coding that’s supposedly trivial enough to be generated by AI.
Fair enough. Sorry for being rude about it.
Yes, that just reiterates my point, doesn’t it?
OpenAI considered building everything in-house and raising capital for an expensive plan to build a network of factories known as “foundries” for chip manufacturing.
Oh man, that’s a delicious understatement. If the allegations are true, this was a plan that would make the military-industrial complex envious.
I somewhat assumed so based on the usual corporate ghoul definition of “successful”. That’s why I included currency as something without which artists have managed to make a living since its invention. That particular example may be arguable, but being a successful artist is not and will not be predicated entirely on how fast one can crank out “content”. How many movies do the wealthiest directors put out per year?
One weird trick explains venture capital!
