@mosssupply Next thing you know the non-AI part of the industry's gonna have to actually think about space and speed efficiency and optimization in their code.

Sign of the apocalypse, I suspect.

@dysfun nice of them to be really up front about what assholes they are, I guess?

@cstross @fesshole @Illuminatus Or are from the American South, because pretty much everything gets batter dipped and deep fried at fairs down there and this wouldn't be the most ridiculous thing by far.

@Sdowney @cstross Every time anyone talks about the invisible hand of the market, or the wisdom of the markets, I just... point them at what the actual market does and laugh.

@RYStorm Uh, oh, the utility's going full on bury-your-gays. Run by '70s era media execs?

@nelson @jmason Because the code is getting old, it's a massive pain in the ass to keep running, and more and more remote servers have... questionable POP services.

Basically it's a lot of neverending support work on the back end with (frankly because of C-suite level bad decisions on staffing) fewer resources available to continue producing a neverending stream of band-aids.

@atoponce I am again reminded that the best thing we can do is figure out what devices, services, and apps these "fuck quality, full speed ahead!" choads are using and surface every single bit of their data publicly.

@AkaSci @sundogplanets The Semaphore constellation's 116k satellites and Cinnamon's *337k*? I know there's a little bit more space the higher up your orbit but those numbers are insane. (Also I assume mostly fantastical and it won't happen outside someone's 1950s YA-SF-inspired dreams, but still)

@jwz Oh, that is *glorious*! And awesome in its awfulness, I could make a good case that it's an excellent argument in favor of XSLT's death.
