Yeah but then this commenter said the punchline as a question and it added a whole new layer.

How people use a tool in general doesn’t have anything to do with the usefulness of the tool when used correctly.

Do we think when the hammer was invented people only used it correctly? If 99 people out of 100 used it incorrectly would that make it a bad tool? I don’t think so. How people use it in general doesn’t have anything to do with the usefulness of the tool when used correctly.

It doesn’t benefit everyone if it pushes the quality down

Look I know some people will chime in and say things were better when programmers had to do their own memory management but I can’t say I agree. Good tools don’t push quality down. People using tools incorrectly certainly does and it’s a guarantee some people will use new tools incorrectly.

Having a tool that can chew through a lot of code and give you suggestions which can be verified is indisputably valuable. Is it worth all the datacenters? Hell no. But open source people aren’t driving that.

I made it very clear what I wanted to talk about in my first comment.

I find it interesting how much you don’t want to talk about those two subjects. Is that because you support blocking strikes and Israel’s genocide?

You accuse me of asking a question in bad faith and then act like you’re living under a rock? Labor issues and genocide support are at the forefront of current political discussions. I can’t remember the last time an American politician mentioned the Uyghurs.

As for your two points, I haven’t met anyone who supports genocide or the blocking of labor strikes, so I don’t know why you thought those up.

Joe Biden went around congress twice to ship weapons to Israel in support of their genocide. Joe Biden, 44 Democratic senators and 36 Republican senators passed a bill to block the rail strike in 2022. Were you unaware of this?

This drives me nuts if I am also watching the movie for the first time.

But I love rewatching movies and happy to pause and talk about the plot on the 2nd+ watch.

However I do make a rule that under no circumstances will the conversation be “Who is that actor? What else are they in?” Plot discussions only!

I’m here. Just waiting for you to answer the question.

I don’t see an answer to my question anywhere in this comment.

Which two points are you talking about? Would it happen to be:

1. Blocking strikes
2. Supporting genocide

Because people who support those things are not allies.

My experience has been indie games are pretty well vetted if they are able to sell for $20.

Plenty of $3-5 games that are a bit of a gamble though. Even if it ends up being kind of lame I figure it’s funding for the developer to make another attempt.

Oh no I spent $3 on a game that could use some more polish.

Honestly even if the game ends up being kinda lame I won’t ask for a refund.

Brick, Moon, Sunshine, Seven psychopaths

I don’t know how many of those are actually indie but I feel like they all flew in under the radar.

That’s always been a risk though.

There’s no one in power willing to actually convict any of these people. Ultimately their crimes as politicians is that they intentionally do not serve the will of the American people or even their voting base. And if you use that as a guideline to inform who should serve prison time it includes Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Clinton and a host of other powerful Democratic politicians.

That whole generation is a lost cause. Let nature usher them out ASAP.

COVID could have taken care of a lot of them.

Okay what else?

for not passing your purity tests

Lol here we go. Which “purity tests” are you referring to?

Tell me what you meant when you said:

And the left continues to cannibalize itself

Prove my assertions wrong.

Go ahead. Prove me wrong.
