yea see I run my own business and I don't consider the gender or race of people applying (aka not racist/sexist)
> It's hard to even find women to interview, let alone hire.
from my perspective this is a subtle admission of active positive discrimination on your part, frankly if i was a woman maybe i would find it a little off putting that a bunch of old guys were real keen to get me under their supervision

i'm just sad I can't talk to him about anything more interesting than a marvel movie anymore
there's plenty of venues where you can find people advocating for those lifestyles, hn shouldn't be. the replies to this should be something more like "wrote my own emacs extension" or maybe like "took venture capital from some specific vc" or something...
this kind of ironic self hatred stuff is a big part of why leaving reddit is on my list...
Now I guess you could consider me a deist, since I think if we are going to define God as some kind of infinite extension of some aspect of humanity then God would have to be a hyper turing machine then in my estimation.
Seems like such a thing could not exist in this universe, but I do actually choose to, loosely, believe something along that line exists, but we couldn't actually interact with or understand an entity like that... on like a mathematical level we couldn't.
So I explicitly disbelieve in a personal god of any kind. There could be a demiurge but I see no reason why it would have moral authority or anything, maybe it could torture you endlessly I guess XD.
"The biggest problem I have with this manifesto is that there's nothing actionable in it. What are we, the little people who aren't techno-elite billionaires, supposed to do now? Just wait for techno-Jesus to save us?"
1. maintain and improve your emacs&nixos configurations,
2. create a personal database and add new capabilities to it (for example you could start by making a database to track github stars that could for instance store hashes of specific commits)
3. with your newfound data model and programmable/configurable environment, slowly integrate AI into your life
the ddl that creates the views/tables/triggers that replace the "idempotent code" should also be idempotent so you should be able to roll it back without rolling back any data
actually i wrote a couple tables/stored procedures that (should probably mostly) do this for postgres after looking at some other patch management libraries by depesz and steve purcell a couple weeks ago
