We have created a system where you can get a toll violation or red light ticket with deadly accuracy in the mail but it’s somehow beyond the limits of LE competence to catch a school shooter captured on multiple videos until a homeless person is tracked down. Also, I think it’s time to abandon the mask thing outdoors. American cities are not New Delhi with smog and virtually anyone masking outside in 2025 is either criming, ICE, a lunatic, or combination thereof.

ChatGPT AI Tool— We all work for robots now

Hi everyone, it’s such a lifetime dream to become CEO of a trusted company like Mozilla, a place that does technology differently, a place that keeps user experience as it’s North Star. Which is why it’s such a tremendous honor to be the leader that says “fuck all of you shitheads, we know what you really want is AI.” https://techcrunch.com/2025/12/17/mozillas-new-ceo-says-ai-is-coming-to-firefox-but-will-remain-a-choice/ -
More fun question is whether Equatorial Guinea is a Hispanic country.

Unsurprising that the guy got found once competent Boston and MA LE got involved. Really embarrassing for Providence and Brown. Also some really shitty behavior leaking one name and then RW social media speculating another name.

Compensation & WFH debate ($120K vs 240K)

To the original point, if you are single and this job allows some great digital nomad lifestyle to chase skirts then this is a debate. If you have any responsibilities it isn’t. -
Papers, please. Surly thread of deportation cruelty dominance
956 Worldwide replied to Captainant's topic in Daily Texan
He already had one murder arrest and the local authorities let him out after a weapons charge and he killed someone within a day. He had been arrested on seven felonies in five years and released each time. Yes, the local authorities failed badly. -

I am very comfortable saying that any unauthorized immigrant who has been arrested SEVEN TIMES on felony charges in five years should have been arrested or deported long before this (second) murder arrest, yes. And that deporting people like him is a good thing, and that finding reasons not to deport people who keep getting arrested is one reason why we are where are. Like who are we kidding on this stuff? What is the net benefit for not kicking you out after, say, two arrests? Keep in mind he has no authorization to be here to begin with. -

The logical response to that is “refusing to charge people for crimes and then letting them go do more” is a basic failure of governance. -

As I said, if you are in a widget role (maybe a highly technical one that pays well), ok. You are absolutely not on a list for future leadership and supervision if being at home and not interacting outside of TEAMS is a priority. -

I think that “sanctuary” policies where immigration authorities are not informed when unauthorized immigrants are arrested for serious crimes are frankly insane on their face and anyone who wants a more humane immigration needs to admit that the backlash they caused is a big reason we are where we are. If it’s inhumane to turn over people with multiple arrests for serious crimes then who can be deported at all? -
For debate: is tweeting about “money hungry Jews” antisemitism or simply a nuanced statement about Zionism? https://nypost.com/2025/12/18/us-news/zohran-mamdani-appointee-catherine-almonte-da-costa-made-vile-antisemitic-comments-in-unearthed-social-media-posts/?utm_source=twitter&utm_social_handle_id=17469289&utm_medium=social&utm_social_post_id=626963616&utm_campaign=nypost

OK in that case this may actually be a foreign intelligence operation and that’s why they won’t release a name.

Compensation & WFH debate ($120K vs 240K)

We ran the experiment of “imagine what we could accomplish if we didn’t have to go into the office” and 95 percent of the population chose to bake shitty sourdough, never change out of sweatpants, and get fat while binge-watching Netflix. Spare me the wishcasting of all the amazing things we could do by not going to work and just locking in at home. We are fucking animals and we will choose to consume calories and conserve energy just like other omnivores if given the choice. 100 percent agree that I will assume peiple who demand WFH as their top priority have low ambitions and low desire to learn. I think WFH is an incredibly important flex tool that can be deployed in a time-constrained way but if you’re doing it all the time you’re just a widget.
