Are you trying to tell me this spoon isn't real?

We are still working on legalizing abortion with a simple law after 50 years. These things take time.
My point was that defending the pissing contest over standards that gave us consumers six ports instead of one to do all the same tasks really misses the mark, imo.
Yeah. AI may grind for a while but hardly anyone has put the current stuff to work, yet. We will be feeling the benefits of what is released right now for a decade to come. I am working on a very rudimentary application that will use ML at work and it won't come out for 12 more months, and it hardly does anything but make the most obvious decisions 10m times faster than I can. But it's going to fundamentally change our labor model.
There are regular folks applying amazing technologies that go way beyond content generation.
The tech may grind but the application of that tech is barely getting its feet and should run hard for a decade.
That would have been a great joke for the Joe Piscopo character in that one standup comedian episode. That would have gotten Data to laugh.
The onlookers look like attendants of the guests.
Look at all those ports I'll never need
We should have had USBC 20 years ago.
It's not that I don't want them to fight it is that their drive to fight this fight is distracting them from the real fight. And every time we engage on this level we ignore the systemic issues. The issues are not gay rights or book burning or taxes. The issue is democracy and money in politics.. it is simply impossible to fix any other issue without fixing those two. First, anyone who tries to sell us anything but those two initiatives are not acting in good faith and are being selfish with their personal goal or acting nefariously. Folks who really want to solve the problem will look for the real problem and stop chasing at all of these little triggering red herrings. There are literally hundreds of these issues and none of them matter at the end of the day. Getting good people involved in government is another one of those lies. And it's interesting you brought up being a cop because that is probably the only profession that is more toxic to good people than politics.
The whole thing needed a reset for decades. It's a shame that Trump got to be the one to do it. But the Dems proved they couldn't handle Trump and they were not ready to lead the country against his handlers. Out maneuvered again and it's getting embarrassing at this point. Like it or not, Trump is painting with the same brush he used in the election, and it's still working for him.
Luther was among the first to advocate for separation of Church and State. First, to keep the State out of Church business. And second, to clear the path for a more democratic structure for Christianity but not for the State.
