  • The suffering should never be the point. It never gives meaningful satisfaction to the bereaved and affected and studies support this.

    It is only human and normal to burn with anger and a desire to see monsters such as this torn apart and made to suffer.

    This is part of our animal mind that views tribal justice and the dubious ‘wisdom of the crowds’ as absolute, and most of the fuckdamn reason we’ve spent so long learning how to live around millions of each other is in part giving up these outdated and unhelpful social traits.

    In the long run, from the cultural perspective, no amount of his suffering will bring his victims back, and no amount of suffering will convince him that he was morally wrong.

    So execute him, and quickly, and spend the money otherwise that would have covered his upkeep on free food for single parents.





  • It may be barbaric, and considering how many innocents have been railroaded into it via abuse or neglect of justice, ethically untenable on the face of it.

    That said, I feel there are certain people who’s actions are so horrific and ideologies so dangerous that should not be allowed to harm society again, and that includes having to pay for their upkeep.

    There are many worthy of execution that have been released to kill again.

    In our imperfect world it is not right to levy a judgment that cannot be reversed.

    If we magically had perfect knowledge of guilt and innocence, I would have zero issue with the death penalty being applied.

    Since that world does not, and cannot exist, I will accept life imprisonment, grudgingly. Some people simply cannot or will not be rehabilitated.


  • COMING THIS SUMMER THE BLOCKBUSTER THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE!

    Oppenheimer!

    Tesla!

    Big Daddy E!

    Across the chasm of time itself these three masters of reality converge to combine their brilliant minds and hone their arts to battle fascism’s most powerful madman: Cyber UltraHitler Mark 5! Thrill at high-stakes airship combat as Tesla unleashes his Even Deather Ray on the nazi zeppelin fleets! Never before have these mighty Men of Science gathered to battle such a desperate foe! Come for the explosions but STAY for the Intense Chalkboard Action!










  • I know for a fact I’ve aged past plasticity and IPv6 will never be ‘natural’ but then as far as IT guys go, literally no one I work with is younger than me lol!

    I’m retiring soon and fine without spending more of my life expanding a knowledge set I may only use for a few more years, that said I am ABSOLUTELY into crypto and was an early miner before GPUs got edged out.

    As far as AI writing code: It simply is the future. I am not exaggerating.

    At some point humans will not write line by line code and being a coder will mean ‘knowing how to best instruct AI to make code, then reviewing and verifying it’, and at some point the code AI will write will be incomprehensible to human reading, just like how antennas are designed today.

    We are in the infancy of it but I GUARANTEE you there is at lease 2 groups right now training AI on codebases alone.

    Guaran-fucking-tee

    And the stuff they will make will FLOOD the market with cheap, quick apps and basically turn hand coding into an artisan work or for specific use instances.




  • This is undeniably true though as I am tasked as the security monitor for several tiny LANs, NOT letting every device have DMZ access has its advantages.

    Maybe I’m just too greybeard to want to change. I love IPv6 for infrastructure and personal devices. For my home LAN and those I am responsible for, a tightly nailed down IPv4 environment is what I prefer.

    I’ll leave the massive address space and IoT readiness to you young and upcoming packet jockys, and in my retirement will marvel at the wonders you create.

    For now, you’ll get your DHCP and you’ll like it if you want to stay in my house young man!
