It's hard to believe that a Jordanian teenager learned the PeopleSoft vendor integration API well enough to exploit it.

Probably somebody whose dayjob is related.

Maybe he was just Vibesploiting, but it seems less likely.

Stupid and malicious are different.

The offered narrative is "let us build the data center AI control grid now because it's only temporary until we can move it to space".

You and I both know that's not thermodynamically possible with known science.

So do the people saying it.

We have a real problem with Positive Projection where we are decent folks so we project that on people who are not. That is an error even though most people are decent folks. The parasites are not.

I only recent learned that Hanlon's Razor comes from a humor book about Murphy's Law from the early 80's. It's not some ancient axiom of wisdom - it is used by the Cluster B disordered to mask their nefarious deeds.

If you talk about this with most people these days you'll get the Positive Projection script executed like an autorun.

Everybody should turn off autorun whenever possible. Major risk.

> Gardasil

It's sold as an "HPV vaccine" but it only targets about 4% of HPV viruses, specifically the ones most likely to cause cervical cancer in women in their 40's. It's described in the Merck literature.

Not even the HPV most likely to cause throat cancer in men (usually acquired from lady parts).

If cancer treatment advances at the current rate (AI discovery docs estimate 9 years for the supermajority) it's possible that the Gardasil fatalities will have killed more teens than prevented deaths of women.

It's like a Drake Equation for cancer - the coefficients will determine the narrative either positive or negative. This is where free choice is ethically mandated.

Unfortunately there is considerable religious fervor about such things so very few people wants to scientifically discuss nuances.

Say more; be specific.

What is missing or broken?

Why isn't EU sponsoring specific features and fixes it needs?

Or assign some of their own developers to submit pull requests.

Or hire *some Europeans* who are unemployed because their war is killing industry.

Let's hear from their project manager instead of faceless wankers and the people responsible for sales.

The propagandists say that their competitors confuse people and they won't believe the propaganda anymore.

The Horror, the Horror.

We'd all be trillionaires if we could see that far into the future with sufficient clarity.

Consider whether a Depopulationist psyop is more or less likely than that The End Times have finally come (unlike the previous thousand pronouncements).

People who are anxious and scared are easy to control. Have a look back at Al Gore's slide deck and see how much they really knew.

Though Competitive Advantage should not be discounted as a very real driver of evolutionary fitness.

The poorest people in the world somehow manage to not extinct their 4B-yr old germ line.

Many Westerners have personal preferences greater than familial survival. It's been trained into them but only in times of mass starvation has this ever happened before in history.

I use a bluetooth page turner pedal for sheet music.

I think it was $14 for two buttons. Maybe there's a third, I only ever use forward and back.

$40 is wild.

>That puts the effort somewhere between direct static decompilation of a game's source code and more complete emulation of the entire PS5 environment.

Decompile source code? Is that like ROT26 encryption?

They probably need another trillion dollars and this time they'll do it right!

No accountability, no consequences for failure.

if McD put near that much effort into their app, I might go there more often. Even as much as once a month! As is, the app is high friction, it's easier to go inside or through the drivethrough.

I want to share my little perspective. I worked at a McDonalds about 26 years ago. For several years while in high school and a bit in college. It was near the Interstate, in Mitchell South Dakota. This means we were quite busy, quite a bit of the time. If a bus came through, and they certainly did, one of if not the most likely place it would stop is there. We were paid near eight dollars an hour which inflation adjusted is probably the same now. As a high schooler, we worked pretty hard. There were two or three kids faster than me but I certainly held my own. And I took personal pride in assembling a nice, neat burger, and not smashing it all to hell wrapping it up. When I go to most fast food restaurants now, its shocking how slower they are. In the years I worked there I saw the "quality" and freshness of food slip every year. The eggs not cracked and mixed, more things pre cooked, etc. We certainly didn't play pricing games then either so if you were busy, you just buckled down and got the food out as quick as you could. The best part is it taught me to do dishes and not grumble. Cooking got easier, and now I'm happy to rarely eat out. I go to a bbq joint, or whatever and almost always think to myself that this could've been better if we made it at home. Anyways, learn to cook. Make your own baked beans, bread, lamb burgers, whatever. It is worth the time and effort to learn. And get a smoker and a charcoal grill if you can. I'm still glad I had that experience; they were mostly all good people. But it certainly should've paid better.

It's just fear porn.

```
McDonald's tracks adherence to the platform, and notes any deviations from the algorithm's price recommendations
```

Which is what you'd want to do for any prototype system.

They should then track foot traffic, gross sales, and net profit and see whether the recommendations increased or decreased them when followed.

Having a control group is valuable, not a target for punishment. If McD Corporate were sane, anyway (cf. ice cream machine fiasco).

The one near me was charging over $6 for fries three years ago - I can't imagine what it's up to now. Haven't been back since.

Reuters is mostly jschool grads emoting and distributing propaganda.

> Amazon mechanical turk slaves

What does 'slaves' mean to you in this context?
