There’s an incredible story behind it. But, the short form is that Proton is more expensive because they’re not harvesting your private information. In a few months the law will prevent them from doing for as long as the core fiscal law and Proton exist (at least decades).
I just like bears, know a little bit, and think they’re getting fucked over in many parts of the US. I definitely wasn’t finding fault with a joke.
If you tried to scritch a wild cat you might just get away with it for awhile. But, you’re never getting that hand back :)
I know it’s just a joke. But, black and brown bears are very intelligent and quite peaceful creatures. I’ve run into forty or fifty in the wilderness. I’ve never once felt the bear was considering an attack. They’re smart enough to recognize our complex behaviors as a large risk to their safety.
The story of the vast majority of humans mauled by bears:
Your dog has a perfect record of defending the pack. Every single time the target either runs or turns out to be friendly. No other pack member defends. Its primary reason to exist is to defend. A bear has a perfect record of fights with anything but another bear.
One day the bear smells some food, good stuff it can’t find normally. It’s some campers with their dog. The dog smells the bear, full adrenaline drops for its whole reason to exist, and defends the pack. The bear wins in about one second.
The human defends the dog. The bear fights because that’s what it’s doing right now. Then, it reconsiders and runs away. Finally, the Forest Rangers track down and kill the bear quietly, preserving the tourism the community relies on.
We’re really shitty to bears, at least here in the US. They’re not even very dangerous relative an wild elk, moose, or even free range livestock. It’s the big and dumb ones you need to watch out for. And marmot. Never disagree with a marmot.

The pay is the satisfaction of a job well done. It’s like a family. We work hard and we play hard. Make sure to read the company policy on appropriate flair. Don’t miss the meeting to decide how to form the committee for defining the best means of communication between committees for accounting, finance, and those troublemakers from the moderation committee.
I’m not actually asking for good faith answers to these questions. Asking seems the best way to illustrate the concept.
Does the programmer fully control the extents of human meaning as the computation progresses, or is the value in leveraging ignorance of what the software will choose?
Shall we replace our judges with an AI?
Does the software understand the human meaning in what it does?
The problem with the majority of the AI projects I’ve seen (in rejecting many offers) is that the stakeholders believe they’ve significantly more influence over the human meaning of the results than exists in the quality and nature of the data they’ve access to. A scope of data limits a resultant scope of information, which limits a scope of meaning. Stakeholders want to break the rules with “AI voodoo”. Then, someone comes along and sells the suckers their snake oil.

We’re living in a late stage capitalistic hellhole and you’re advocating faith in the free market.
What. The. Fuck.
You’re off on a tangent.
All AI lacks the context of human experience. It doesn’t understand anything but means of computation of data. And, sometimes it doesn’t even understand that, doesn’t understand how it is deriving or derived the answer. Most of our scaled profit maximizing applications are as such: Humans blindly implemented an AI conclusion that nothing and no one understands.
I’m an expert, quit the big boys and went rogue. If you want, ask a better question.
Monopolies don’t care about the user experience, only profit. The AI doesnt understand the former, only the latter. The continued degredation of the user experience is a likely indicator of an increase in revenue as function of successful application of AI.
I would suggest reading the parable of the widow’s mote.
It’s not my duty to solve the Christian’s problem. Their book teaches that love is sacrifice and that they recruit in love. If this one doesn’t know how to sacrifice for another because they’re online then their own text suggests they find another way to recruit.
If the one found a way to love the other, if they’re true to their faith, then we will likely never know.
You said it, I asked you to think about it, and you’ve said it again. I’ll certainly respect your decision. Thank you for reconsidering.
If a potential candidate doesn’t understand why there’s a strong vetting process then then don’t understand the changing paradigm of human communication. Teaching that is an unacceptable liability. The OpSec is on point. Great work. And, thank you for everything, including tolerance of those that don’t yet understand why.
What I have to say isn’t positive. And, it’s likely not constructive as I believe I’d be preaching to the choir.
The important thing to say is that I’m beginning to understand why others likely believe you’d make a trusted and capable moderator.
You came to proselytize. They asked if you love them. Now, show this person a meaningful sacrifice.
I feel like the only “real” relationship I have is with my wife. Friends I think are close distance themselves if I begin a conversation with something personal and nuanced enough to be meaningful and engaging.
We both felt like this for quite awhile. And, we soon reasoned that we were about the perfect people in the perfect situation to answer: Where does a collectivist sense community still exist? The answer appears incredibly simple: Forty to sixty minutes from the closest Walmart.
In twenty five years you’ll be thanking her because you know what the fuck the news just said. But, today, I can only imagine the torture.
Right now my landlord isn’t owning a gigantic series of mistakes. You made my day by owning a very small one.
I think this is much more positive and productive than what the other conversation became.
If the long day has been online, I suggest talking to someone about any subject IRL, in person or on the phone. A little human stuff puts all this digital bullshit right back into perspective for me.
When I said to consider yourself, you asked me to consider another’s opinion of you that you disagree with.
If you can dish it out then you’ll see right though such bullshit when it regularly pops up in the mod que ;)
web design or legal compliance or social media marketing
Fuck all that. It’s not needed.
They need someone with strong reading comprehension, who can consistently reason their way from an ideology to the specific situation, then write professionally. Mods work the collective que of reports independently.
If you don’t want the gig no one one is owed an explanation. But, please don’t judge yourself underqualified for the wrong reasons.
I’ve got a project coming hopefully this fall. You probably just saved me hours next summer.
