classic warning case of someone getting high on their own supply

didn't you know? kids exist in perfect social isolation taking social cues only from their parents and no other information or humans they have contact with! and it's not like parents have issues either, right? I mean who'd have issues and then go pop out some kids?! madness

(utter and complete /s ofc. the aforeposter in question is the intended recipient)

mm I wonder what kind of content they'll want to use that for

always remember that the "B" in "Jordan B Peterson" is for "Benzos"

jesus fuck so many parts of this are psychic injury

the account name, the presumption of "oh yeah my opinion is right", the very nature of this person's "engagement" (quotes intentional) with conflict, the deference to non-authority (holy fuck how the fuck is it that we have worse than the personal-abdication of christianity (oh right, it's mcfuckingsaltman's fault)).....

I want to say "some of these people are in desperate need of a hug", but then as a friend of mine pointed out recently: "maybe if they weren't all such self-loathing pieces of shit they may actually get a hug"

in the current most-typical mode of engagement, commit messages are too disconnected from the actual contents. it requires someone who gives a shit to go looking

conversely, what I mean is something like "a hook that guarantees that the moment the plugin is engaged and output from it is scribed in source, metadata about that event is simultaneously co-written"

it's already generating a pile of other things, it may as well generate timestamps and callsig and callhash and shit too....

the number one problem with this, of course, is that it's going to be extremely unpopular with a Vocal Set Of People who rely on this shit to make themselves look good

that was indeed another input to the heuristics

(post-hoc, to be honest. but it's still fucking hilarious)

nominative determinism strikes once again!

a ghoul’s impressionist rendition of an actual person

I got a handful of paragraphs into reading that and then realized I definitely don't want to read that tonight

an idea I just had (which would need some work but talking hypothetical): wouldn't it be lovely if ~~IDEs~~ VS Code[0] automatically inserted "Copilot Used Here" start/end markers around all generated shit. could even make it a styleguide/editorconfig so it's universally set across projects[1]

[0] - because lol ofc it's mainly vscode rn

[1] - and then when you find colleagues who lie about whether they're using it you wrap all their desk shit in foil

for many years, I went blessedly unaware of who this random fuckjack was, knowing only: 1) ambiently knowing the name, 2) that I ambiently know the name (these two things together are usually a decent heuristic for me to not bother digging)

and then I got jumpscared by a full-scale mrbeast standee in a shop some months back

may I soon be able to forget about this fuckjack once again
