It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

AI : the boss should be fired, didn't make a single cup of coffee all month
Pinochet-Shooting-The-Computers.jpg
Wait I’ve only learned a little about project cybersyn, did Pinochet destroy it because it said he sucked? Or just cause commie bad?
I think the answer is "yes, and yes". It was an ideological heresy and it threatened his paymasters.
But - ironically enough - he still fell back on it in the end, because Chile needed the revenues from the copper industry in order to function. Privatizing the country's largest revenue stream would have meant downsizing the military. And that threatened Pinochet's control of the country. So he ended up doing all the same fundamental state-run economy shit Allende was trying to master, just a decade later and after having shot half the guys in Chile who knew what they were doing.
Weird how socialist ideas are well thought out good ideas that work. Thanks for the info!
in the world we live in the boss what decisions to make, not the AI. the AI is simply there to help the owners decide who to throw to the dogs
*AI is there to justify management's decisions, and occasionally to spark ideas management can use in lieu of listening to workers or doing their fucking job and coming up with big brain stuff themselves.
