But they were Nazi dogs.
I had this exact conversation, and used this argument, with my own parents.
It must have worked. I was allowed to play Wolfenstein, anyway.

Heh. Jellyfin sees “Inside Out” very differently than I did…
Yeah. That’s (arguably) the background scenario to Asimov’s book “The Naked Sun” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Naked_Sun
Edit: Ooh, Django already gave a cooler link to the same: https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/10729278
AIs are going to commit virtual seppuku after a few days.
Yes. And that’s our best case scenario. Worst case is a wildly incompetent, but still effective form of SkyNet.
It feels like Noel Fielding may once have seen this picture, and decided that woman is his spirit animal.
Oh! Today I learned that the briefcase was for. Thanks!
Yep. I also never finished it. It got incoherent, and I heard it didn’t really get better at the end.
Good question. It’s a little unclear until the group figures out what the mysteries numbers are for, and why the crazy old man can suddenly walk again.
Yep. I’m old, cranky, and prone to broad statements to get reactions.
That said, for any of you all that love inheritance, I’m judging you so hard. So hard. Very judged. I probably hate your code, and your friends’ code, and your last teacher’s code. Especially your last teacher’s code.
Interfaces are great.
Inheritance is often a sign that the previous developer didn’t understand interfaces.
He died of XML factory injection pattern exposure.
Nyeeeh!
There are some areas I’m hoping get addressed by the coming skyrocket in programmer productivity:
I think that last one stands to be strongly enabled by AI code assist tools. It might not be the sexiest or highest paying job, but it’ll be work that matters that largely isn’t even being done today.
As a fellow pro, who has no issues calling myself a pro, because I am…
You’re spot on.
The stuff most people think AI is going to do - it’s not.
But as an insanely convenient auto-complete, modern LLMs absolutely shine!
Thank you! Though, in humility, I think I’m a Crawley, at my best.
I try not too get to mad about this kind of mistake. Life is, indeed, two short.
Edit: Specifically, about “Drink Pepsi”, when “Royal Cola” exists.
That is wild.
This is what social media was meant for.
If I hadn’t joined the Fediverse, I could have missed this, because of garbage algorithms that don’t understand what’s important in life.
Thanks for sharing that.
Good point. Of course, with the number of nuclear war-heads we’ve built, I would feel pretty confident referring to it as “World War Final”.
I actually usually just refer to it as “our extinction event”. But I’ll acknowledge I’m going out on a limb - there’s plenty of other ways we could finish ourselves off.
I love how much empathy and emotional intelligence is built into this call to action to randomly assault people.
I dream of a world where all calls for needless violence are grounded in this exact compassionate outlook.
Lunchtime, doubly so!
