If you're reading this you might be interested in getting to the bottom of it. Hop in, let's go.

@girlsbian_ Hey @grok, if gender is a social construct then mustn't it be ontologically dependent on collective human practices, norms, language, institutions, and shared agreements?

In other words a tranny doesn't get to pick their gender; rather, the rest of society picks it for them?

Chatgpt pro just came up with a better design than me in one of my specific areas of technical expertise.

It's very smart, you guys.

@shakoistsLog Even by today's standards only one of these guys is gay

@kayloni What makes you think I'm not phone out bone out?

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@usr_bin_roygbiv @_imdawon Oh I haven't worked for a decade.

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@usr_bin_roygbiv @_imdawon Trust me, I tell them. "You don't want this problem, right?"

One of the most effective places I ever worked embedded an infosec guy in the app teams and made them responsible for providing solutions rather than saying no. It's a good way to shift the perspective.

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@usr_bin_roygbiv @_imdawon It's a meh solution to a bad security architecture. Normal users need it in the cloud because they don't know how to manage files or send strings securely between systems. And they have multiple systems.

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@usr_bin_roygbiv Infosec is like any other regulated industry - there's a small group of hyper competent people mostly unavailable to the plebs.

Most advice is slightly better than what normies would do but still terrible.

@usr_bin_roygbiv Stdio and the tty are different layers tho.

We're probably due to retire stdio, it doesn't scale well in a threaded world

@HeidiBriones @CBP Eat it all before going through security

@kitten_beloved Just say like half a pound

@HeidiBriones @NormalGayPsych I watched one go through the whole process "well, let's see what the AAUW says" - then they learned it had been skinsuited and supports men in women's sports and prisons.

Huge eye opener.

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@HeidiBriones @NormalGayPsych I've seen a few true blue elderly low info voters flip and go (selectively) red this election. The reason? Learning the dem candidates supported transing kids and men in women's sports.

These points are insanely unpopular and can be hammered in the news

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@JuanIsidro @eigenrobot Ah, to be clear I am not calling either of you idiots - quite the opposite. I'm just extrapolating a bit to make a related point.

[icpolicy @icpolicy]

@eigenrobot I don't think it's prudent to view this through the lens of his personal judgment.

His family is out, but he's a useful foil for the party because he's a pig in the mud. What does he care about his image?

[George McHorseman @GMcHorseman]

@LundukeJournal Oh, it's much worse than that.
Before the egg "hatches" it must be "cracked".
A vital part of the indoctrination, usually done on Discord at this point in time, requires exposing the young "egg" to the most shocking pornography they can.
The egg "hatches" once they like it.

@Larry0584939597 @eigenrobot There's actually enormous opportunity for intellectual satisfaction in work but the trick is it doesn't come from the field as much as the approach.

If the job is complex, embrace it. If it's simple, automate it. If many are working, manage them.

@noampomsky I mean I've been to the dentist is this a trick question

@musestoomuch Listen, buy some sodium citrate, $10 on Amazon.

Mix aged cheddar or another fine cheese with milk or beer roughly 2:1 ratio. Toss in some sour cream if you've got it. Sprinkle in a bit of the sodium citrate. Microwave stirring every 15s until creamy.
