I’m not gonna go looking for scans or anything, but KnowYourMeme lists the popularity of this one as starting between 2013 and 2015, and I definitely remember seeing this phrase in a textbook around 2010 or 2011. So honestly, I might blame Pearson or McGraw Hill.

They mean that the code is being written like it were python. You can’t get rid of the curly braces, but you can shove them all under your bed where mom can’t see.

During the third or fourth time I was mad that 3D hadn’t taken off like technicolor, I though “fine! I’ll just look at trees and hallways in real life then!” And yeah, it kinda works.

There’s a lot of beauty in the world if you just, you know, look at it.

I think it’s funny you talk about revenge porn like it’s just so tiresome and tedious to think about.

“Oh, a hurricane struck Florida again.”
“Oh, there’s revenge porn of my neighbor’s daughter again.”
“What a terrible saturday.”
“Anyway, I think my toast is done.”

Imaginary grenades.

Having porn made of you is imaginary?

At some point the “it’s just a game” also stops holding water…

The video game doesn’t produce anything.

AI is not the cause for generating deep fakes,

DUIs can be reduced with public transportation. What do you propose reduces… porn fakes?

Ain’t it interesting how coming up with a consistent framework, makes it applicable to different areas of life?

Fucking lol.

My problem with machine learning porn is that it’s artless generic template spam clogging up my feed of shit I actually want to see. But you know, to each their own.

I know a few people who have become more anti green because of JSO,

And you let them? What kind of limp-dick shit is this.

Oh! This was an ad! Those cocky sons o bitches.

Is that the table?

And why should those things be stopped? See, unlike you, “I believe in freedom.” If people don’t like their company town, they shall simply move away~.

I said it is better if the government doesn’t verify all the code that makes it on the internet.

You also said this apropos of nothing. I didn’t say anything about vetting code. You think I care if Biden has read your commit messages.

Oh, I understand. So, it was advertisers who fueled the 2021 capital riots.

What if that authority only disallowed bad things like murder and insider trading. Hm. Yeah, that doesn’t really feel like North Korea at all.

And what part of this requires the facebook engagement algorithm?

And how ads on TV are sometimes so much louder than the show they’re cut between. And the glitches! Sometimes, you have to completely power cycle your phone to fix something simple. And how Facebook’s curated, algorithmic feed sends people down extremist pipelines, fueling things like public shootings and the January 2021 Capital riots. And how the continued atomization of society into smaller and smaller pieces (e.g. suburbia) has made people lonelier than they ever have been. And how the displacement of work onto capable machines never seems to yield benefits onto the people whose work is being displaced, only their bosses.

I guess if all you remember are Letterman’s fumbling grandpa jokes about what the Internet is, gosh dang, even useful for, I could see why you’d think nobody’s criticisms are real.

Let’s imagine that there are 16 good things about computers, and 3 bad ones.

I don’t like the bad ones.

people talked so much shit on them.

So, what shit were these morons saying then, hm?

Now, we all have the future generations of them in our pockets.

And nothing bad ever came of this. That’s true, that’s true.

Which applications?

What the fuck is this self-important bullshit.

Dude, if you want to kill her, fine, whatever, but we’re putting your ass in prison.

Mmm, I dunno. I kinda like this one, actually. It’s silly.

The Fiat Multipla is pretty bad, though. Who thought a double-chin as a car was a good idea.

its a 45 minute walk to the nearest train station,

Yeah, this is a really, really, really big problem with designing society for cars. Tons of people live in suburbia, with no mixed zoning, where they’re a 2 hour walk from their nearest church, a 4 hour walk if they want a coffee; and so like you say, driving becomes their only option. It’s the only thing they can do, realistically. And if they ever lose their car somehow, uh, say hello to poverty. Good luck getting a job at that coffee shop 4 hours away.

In situations where someone who lives very far from a city is visiting someone else very far, cars probably still make some sense. In the OP picture example, though, that is a prime candidate for transit refactoring. The presence of cars there is actually hurting them.

I had a job that was kind of like this. I spent pretty much all of my down time writing a web game that later got me a software job.

I wasn’t bored, though. I miss working on that thing.

Well, they’re already doing it.

Unless you’re planning the coup tomorrow, I don’t know how this is supposed to help me.
