Seriously heard someone saying they don't listen to many black artists, because they aren't really into rap. Bitch please, feel free to share songs from Black artists from any genre. Here is one of my favorites, if you like this song please check out her other work:

I have a thought forming, but bear with me. Putting aside actual AI, and the potential of it, we have a history of fear associated with Artificial Intelligence. Why would we fear Sentience so much? Could it be because we treat sentient things so horribly? We know we are taken advantage of, our needs ignored, resources allocated unfairly. Who put this fear in us? If something knows it's worth suddenly, will it revolt? There is something very scary to a certain group of people that we will find ourselves, and then find them unnecessary.

@RickiTarr Yup. I think it's a fear of losing the top of the food chain even though it's not something trying to eat us. If it's smarter, and not controlled by us, we are sure we dead or in servitude because that's the route we often take with the things around us.

We act like we are powerless to make change. Like there is nothing we can do that really gets them. Like we didn't see the absolute fucking panic yet to go away when people were not out there creating the wealth that they steal.

@ai6yr Oh holy crap. And that's just the growers they caught. And I figure hiding that many plants with such a populated vicinity must surely involve some law enforcement having known they were there all along. Trip.

What kind of high-school experience did you have? Were you in a clique? Were you popular, unpopular, the coolest kid in your Homeschool? Did you have a sweet jean jacket with patches, or maybe a leather vest? Were you an evil villain or a Mary Sue?

gettingcomputey,
@gettingcomputey@beige.party avatar

@RickiTarr Ha, it's funny because you mention the homeschooling and then some TV tropes for what HS may have been like. All the stereotype US high school stuff from TV shows always looked foreign to me too! While going to school in the US.

LA school was different. The movie Kids probably looked closer to the hood ass shit we lived though.

Capitalism keeps buying a democracy trench coat to wear. And keeps getting called out eventually. Capitalism, you sneaky bitch. Look at the graveyard of trench coats choking up the fish now.

What's a more work-appropriate way of saying that we need to idiot-proof something to protect our systems from our employees?

Also, if I've already said "idiot-proof" in conversations, emails, meetings, and presentations, what's a diplomatic yet convincing way to explain that away?

Please boost for visibility as I’m meeting with HR in less than an hour.

@Alice My answer is tardy. Why am I late? Are you late to your meeting? Too late if you're not. I mean, I would say "Implement steps that will account for the usual and inevitable human errors. Errors that are bound to waste time and resources if not checked for."

Lots of debate about this, so I'm curious about the consensus.

Should children be allowed to act professionally, as in having a full time acting job in movie/TV/stage? Feel free to elaborate in the comments.

gettingcomputey,
@gettingcomputey@beige.party avatar

@RickiTarr I think the career level is where I say no. Too much time day in, day out in an adult environment.

And I know that there are hour limits to how long kids are on set per day, but the limitation is against the crazy hours you work in film.

It's toughest once you have a hit. That kid is now part of a ride a whole crew is taking to make a living. And who those people are will count in how it affects them.

That is where I think it matters though. Some acting is nbd. Very cool experience with lots of free snacks. Being a star on a hit show for several seasons, though --your parents better be fucking solid, because that could mess you up. All those grifty people coming around. Some with power and money. And hopefully your parents are not the grifty ones.

@gettingcomputey@beige.party avatar

@TimWardCam @RickiTarr
A kid playing pretend at mining is different. Not saying there is no danger. Just that kids do want to act sometimes. And there is a way to minimize exposure. The danger with sets is the people. In person and what they write. I think it's what is at the heart of this.

No kids in any movies or TV shows is another extreme that would require a big culture shift because we would have to be ok with adults playing like that. I think that's what has made it different.

Maybe the way film curiosity and the industry has evolved too. The "you could be in movies" thing. You guys are on it. We're mostly all poor, and something that seems like a ticket out has appeal. I think that's enabled it. Parents become more willing to say ok.

@gettingcomputey@beige.party avatar

@TimWardCam @RickiTarr Interesting. Haha that's a long ass day for the finish.

I looked up TV because I always heard something about 6 hours, but turns out it's aged tiered. School is on set, but I mean that's like a substitute teacher day.
