You're being silly. The actual technical people are using Claude for implementation and relying on MCP servers to use Codex 5.5 and Gemini 3.1 pro to build teams, councils, and long running senior engineer conversations within Claude to handle the technical bits that're too complicated for Claude.

I've always said we should build an open-source flock that makes all data available for free to anyone, in a ploy to get proper regulations passed. But they'd probably just make it illegal to track police/government cars then break down your door and arrest you for tracking unmarked ICE agent vehicles

I'm of the same mind since you probably can't close that Pandora's box.

As soon as citizens of Minneapolis though start tracking the movements of ICE vehicles though, then something will have to be done about it…

Take the Helium crypto scheme of antennas on roofs, but replace antennas with networked cameras, and instead of a scam it’s a protest.

If a few people set them up, took pictures, recorded some of their friends’ license plates with the cameras… then prime time to make a marketing website for the roof cameras that is as scary as possible. It would include the real footage of the license plates, some story about how you get paid for bounties like facial recognition of a husband and the partner he’s suspected to be cheating with… and that you’re not allowed to hire the camera network for stalking (“wink“).

Claim to pay bonuses for cameras mounted in the highest traffic/value locations, with illusions to corporate espionage and stuff.

AirTag but for dashcams would be cool. The trick is to make a popular product without being a company that's going to gatekeep that data.

No, it was driving towards a cliff and deciding to jump out of the car instead of pressing the breaks. If you're costing at work, worried about being laid off some day, the last thing you do is just quit; you job hunt and try to change habits. Pretending like we have to feel immense pain to strengthen the economy is the quasi moralistic reasoning of a moron

Yes, there's every reason to believe the market will weed out the AI slop. The problem is, just like with stocks, the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent. While we all wait for executives to learn that code rigor matters, we still have bills to pay. After a year when they start trying to hire people to clean up their mess, we'll be the ones having to shovel a whole new level of shit; and the choice will be between that and starving.

As someone who also falls into camp one, and absolutely loves that we have thinking computers now, I can also recognize that we're angling towards a world of hurt over the next few years while a bunch of people in power have to learn hard lessons we'll all suffer for.

Both sides aren't fighting each other, one side has turned themselves into a weapon for rich pedophiles to attack the other side with.

Notably, both sides held that exact view in recent times.

It's honestly incredible to me that there are people who truly believe these two things are comparable:

> Mr. Dernbach, don’t play Russian roulette with H’s life

Verses posting images of an arsenal, writing they need to buy guns for the upcoming election, and also:

> The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!

One is clearly threatening murder towards public officials and showing themselves taking steps to enact their plan. The other is a concerned citizen exercising their first amendment right. I have to believe the people saying these are the same are bots, because the alternative is just so pathetic.

Using your 1st, 2nd, and 4th amendment rights is considered civil disobedience at this point; keep up.

If your point is to ignore the history and political philosophy of civil disobedience because "times are different now," then just grab your gun and start your civil war already... because that's where you've concluded we're at.

I'm not even really sure why I'm getting so much pushback here. I've thought this administration should have been impeached and removed within a week of the inauguration in 2017. I just am not sure where all this "why won't you admit that things are so bad, and shouldn't be this way" is helpful, when Trump was democratically elected. When you have a tyranny from a majority, the parallels to MLK are very clear, and you can't expect that change with come without sacrifice.

Civil disobedience is only nice and easy when you're sect is already in power, which -- when we're talking about people who generally support liberal democracy -- it has been since probably the McCarthy Era.

I don't know how you think this is worse than Renee Good's murder. She was shot in the temple through the driver side window while being directed by an Ice agent to drive away. She was then denied medical care at the scene, and local police were denied access to investigate while the shooter was shepherded out of state as quickly as possible

Well they tried to deny local police access here too, but the local police wasn't having it this time

That's murder if so, not unfortunate

That's the neat trick, they won't! They'll always define a class of "illegals" to hunt, their job depends on it
