  • But how will AI learn to be a thin-skinned, small-dick energy twat? You know the type that only consumes information form a powerpoint deck for 10 seconds before launching into a million moronic questions because they didn’t read the tiny bit of information in the deck that they specifically asked for? Then they get mad because they’re giant toddlers who are more than anything, just some rich guy’s idiot kid.

    I’m not the corporate powerhouse, but I am c-suite adjacent. I can’t count how many times these pricks move right to emotional manipulation. They really are one-trick ponies. Some know a little finance, and they will make the little they know into a huge deal. They’re just dinosaurs with a disposition to match.

    I would MUCH rather work for an AI than some of these peabrained assholes.



  • I don’t know, it seems to me that most people know how to ask a question or make a request. It’s not that different. It’s just that a lot of people don’t understand what is possible and they freeze.

    You tell them, to ask for anything you want. They uncork and say “So I can ask it for a chocolate cream pie?”. Partially in jest, but they do that because they don’t seem to have a comfortable knowledge of the limits. A person with little technical background has no need for output that they don’t understand. Once you guide them a little and let them know they can get a recipe for a chocolate cream pie and some practical advice on how to make it, that might be helpful, but little better than just looking up a recipe. You’d have to let them know that they can find multiple variants of recipes and have it rank them, compare them, and produce a summary of the most popular types. By now they’ve stopped listening and have gone to the grocery store to buy a chocolate cream pie and you’re standing there hoping they will give you a piece.

    In summary, I wish I had some pie. What was the question?








  • That’s not the problem here. Showing a notification with content is not a big deal.

    In the case stated here, the big deal is that the notification HISTORY was preserved after removal of Signal. That’s because both Apple and Google do the same thing. They keep a notification history. Not on a per-app basis, ALL apps notification history is stored.

    I know that on Androids, it is turned off by default and you can turn it on, so you get the impression that Android doesn’t have this issue. I am going to guess as I do not own an apple anything that iOS has notification history turned on by default. This is the real problem. This is not anything Signal can control for unless they were to not support notifications which would render their app useless, so that’s not an option.



  • I’m a fancy dancy senior director. I hire leadership as well as individual contributors.

    I would NEVER hire a psycho because people like that cause endless drama and bullshit. Now I have to hear about it constantly and everyone is going to question my judgement (as well they should) if I were to hire an asshole like that. I’ve had a few people who would get a little hot under the collar at work. Nothing big, but they’d get pissy and irritated on meetings, pretty minor stuff. They ain’t even curse or yell. I’d STILL have people up my ass about dude because he got a little shitty during a call. I could not imagine having a genuine whack job who fucks with people on my staff. So much time wasted on Mr. Grumpy-but-Harmless. Have Professor Cockstain on the team would be endless misery.

    The asshole at work creates more work than they do. Anyone who hires one knows damn well what they’ve done and unless they have the balls to fire them, they’re complicit in keeping them around.

    Sane people don’t hire assholes.
