  • Extreme disdain for democracy. Some psychopaths want to bring us back before the age of enlightement, while using enlightement or (especially in case of China) post-enlightement ideas to do so, because we citizens are all like badly behaving 12 year olds, who need 24 hour supervision on every day on the week, every month of the year, or we might “go insane” from doing something a psychopathic madman does not want us.







  • Well, executives like to oversell the ability of genAI, so people think it can fully replace human coders right now. In actuality, it’s just a more resource wasting Google. I usually try to look for code with public domain license instead to copy and modify (I try to credit the original authors nevertheless), and rarely peek into less permissive codes (had to do it for some OS API stuff, because people forgot how do do what SDL does without using SDL, my worst offense was to check the keyboard scancode lookup table in multiple Linux versions).





  • IMHO, creativity is also not about coming up with an idea, but the implementation of it. Drawing isn’t about the initial idea, but how the end result looks, which could take a lot of time. GenAI shortcuts the idea to the implementation, that’s also why they look awful.
