You have agents classify what each portion of the network responds to and how. One compares it to filling out a very large crossword puzzle: https://already-clean.goodfire.com/
That’s the theory anways, not sure if it will stand the test of time…

Or maybe fixating on one literal aspect instead of the context is missing the forrest for the trees.

Isn’t that the idea behind the GPL? To make it so even if a community behind a codebase regressed into that dynamic a different community can decide to fork it.

And how is the programming language you choose to use a political statement?
Consider the following as one example:
Most programming languages are english-centric and even the ones that support unicode for defining variables and method statements might not support right to left languages. Then there are different numeric systems that are culturally based. These technical decisions have a social impact that makes it more difficult for other cultures to interact with the codebase by increasing the barrier of entry. Does this mean i stop writing code in python or Javascript for work? No, because that would be too difficult and high of a cost. But i don’t deny the social and political impact of these decisions.

There are key distinctions between the movement of the earth and a train, one of which is that humans are in control of the speed, timing, and direction of trains. All those aspects are influenced by politics, unlike the rotation of the earth. But you get the jist, it is impossible for a human to stand still in a political sense.

Shit man, some days I rolled out of bed only because of political spite. The world is run by those who show up.

ACA is more popular now than it was in 2016, Gallup put it at 42% . The pandemic made a lot of people rethink their priorities.

Forcing people to purchase health insurance turned out to be rather unpopular and helped Trump get elected. And the insurance companies ended up buying the entire vertical chain so the caps put on their overhead ended up being toothless.

There’s no readme so I don’t really understand what this is for. Plenty of proxy solutions already exist…
Trump cares about optics, that’s why all our news channels are owned by his friends.

Isn’t this the meme “I like pancakes” - “So you hate waffles?”
Recently went to a community organized meeting where we coordinated ICE watch actions, how to pressure our school board, care packages for those they release, etc. They also asked us to vote and to talk to our families about voting.

Isn’t that the point? That we shouldn’t wait for the DNC to act but take matters into our own hands? That’s not moping, it’s saying no one is coming to save us so we don’t need permission to act.

Edited within the same minute, and carries the same sentiment. Newsom won’t save us, we save us. I literally just returned from a community meeting to respond to ICE escalating in Fresno California, and our elected representatives were absent. Continue chirping pal.
The guy has been awfully silent about the GOP trying to deport Ilhan Omar.
