It’s simple really. Be honest and reasonable to the judge, and they will likely be reasonable back especially if this is a first offense. Give only as much information as requested, though, never offer information unless you’re certain it won’t be used against you.

It’s the most toxic instance I’ve ventured into (and admittedly have this account on). People spread lies and vitriol here about as much as Twitter and Reddit.

Ha! See?

Because idiots listen to him.

I have empathy for people who have empathy themselves. Many of voters in Florida elected these morons, they’re not held hostage except to their own inability to critically think. The elected officials gerrymandered, put judges in place that don’t strike the gerrymandering down, and then the rest of us have to show empathy toward them? Yeah, no.

Sure, for those who are intelligent and didn’t vote for these assholes, I feel bad for them and wish them well.

But clearly much of Florida’s population asked for this — so to those people, you reap what you sow.

That’s a shame. Thoughts and prayers.

As expected.

I long for the day when CEOs and companies get their heads out of their asses and stop pushing this “metaverse” nonsense.

Price controls are the only viable solution if monopolies aren’t broken up and if collusion is rampant effectively removing competition. ~~While I know of no direct evidence~~ While I do not know of any direct evidence of collusion between grocers, the effects seem quite clear to me when nearly every grocer seems to be taking in record profits while many groceries are still 2-5 times higher than just five years ago.

Also, if this issue is the litmus test for some people on whether they would vote for Trump over Harris, those people should have their head examined. While Harris lacks some specifics here, Trump has nothing — plus he’s a lying, misogynistic, sociopathic convicted felon — so yes, I agree, Harris is the obvious choice.

The problem is that you’re still not learning, then. Maybe that’s your goal, and if so, no worries, but AI is currently a hammer that everyone seems to be falling over themselves finding nails for.

All I can do is sigh and shake my head. This bubble will burst, and AI will still take decades to get to the point people think it is already at.

No shit. Senior devs have been saying this the whole time. AI, in its current form, for developers, is like handing a spatula to a gourmet chef. Yes it is useful to an extremely small degree, but that’s it…for now.

Yeah people against unions tend to leave out the important bits. It’s a car salesman trick and clearly it’s not working.
