I just pass the create table statements after the instructions. It does pretty good up to 2 or 3 tables, but it will start to make mistakes when things get complicated

On the plus side, it'll generate tedious code very well - double checking it is less draining than writing it yourself. Especially because I make more typos than it does - I often use it to get a starting point, then write the business logic myself

What do you mean? It works the same way, the opinion of the community will pull you closer to the group consensus. Too much exposure will have horrible things you don't really believe spilling out of your mouth

Don't go there, don't spread word about it, don't feed it in any way. It's like flood water - pull others out of it if you can, but minimize your exposure

As to shutting them down if you have the ability? Shutting down a cesspool is good - it fragments the echo chamber, and some members won't make the migration. The only question is if I trust the one making that decision to remain impartial

Therapy is also about fit. It takes something like 5 tries to get a good match - both the kid and the parent need to be on board, or the whole thing will end up as a bad experience for everyone involved

On one hand, I kinda get it. Corporations do things, and if they get killed over small oversights there will be very real effects for many people

On the other hand, holy fuck, look around. Everything is going to shit, the planet is literally dying and we're not even living it up anymore

How about the opposite? A decentralized system, avoiding concentrating power in any one place, and focusing on building platforms for coordination to act on larger scales

No, the community needs to cyber bully them off the platform. They need to feel rejection for their words, not censorship. Censorship lets them frame themselves as the victim as they seek out a smaller echo chamber on the fringes. They need to learn their words will turn the community against them

We still have to live with them. We can't ignore them or silence them - we have to correct them

There are people basically immune to caffeine. There are extreme caffeine addicts. I can drink two pots myself, and I'm extremely sensitive to caffeine

The metaphor works because it doesn't matter how much coffee you drink - it matters how fast you drink it. And that's a limit set by the business - the size of the cups and how quickly they're refilled

At this point, I feel like you're not even trying to understand what I'm saying...

You just have to work in legal costs to anything you do. Call it an asshole tax

Like coffee. It might cost them 1¢ a pot... It might cost them $1200 up front and $60 a month for their coffee makers

Well, I think most of them are trying to get the government to split the bill, which I don't love but I could live with. If they get small scale nuclear working, we might finally actually reduce fossil fuel usage for once

I just feel like the other shoe is about to drop. Are they going to push to run them themselves, with minimal oversight? Do billionaires want to buy privately owned nuclear reactors for their bunkers?

I don't know how this is going to turn bad, I just have a bad feeling

Yeah... But why is this being pushed so hard? When the billionaire owned media pushes a message this hard, I can't help but look for the terrible consequences I'm missing

You could make an enclosure. You'll get better prints too
