Hate begets hate. Call for the death of others, and you might take a bullet to the throat and live just long enough to realize why this is happening to you and the irony.


Sounds like it's time to abandon it for something new and more stupid


90% spam/hack?


You have a 99% email reputation with a company THAT IS NOT GOOGLE and that reputation scrore means fuck-all to Google. If you want to know what score GOOGLE is giving you, which is they metric that GOOOGLE uses, you can find that by signing up for Google Postmaster Tools. A 99% reputation with someone that has nothing to do with accepting ther email for final delivery is worthless marketing bullshit that you have fallen for.


At first I thought this was just an April Fools post. ugh.


I've used Flirc


I used a Flirc many years ago for my mythtv DVR and it worked great. https://flirc.tv/

edit: I used the receiver, but they do make a remote. It looks cool but I have no experience with it.


I agree that that is all true. And exceedingly fucking stupid.


What if the hammer has a problem where the handle breaks off randomly? Same thing happens with AI. Sometimes it breaks, randomly, and without any way of predicting it.


I think you have missed the analogy.

Another way to look at it is that the operator of the hammer has an immediate feedback loop and will not continue with a broken hammer. AI as it stands rarely has that feedback on the consequences of its decisions, and lacks the ability to react appropriately.


The problem that I see is that no one and no company seems to be making that distinction.


lots and lots of companies are making that distinction. but try and write a post here saying “our productivity is through the roof and our systems have never been more stable since we started using AI” and see what happens. as it always goes in this day and age, bubbles and echochambers… so easier to just go about your day doing amazing shit at amazing pace than try to “argue” about the merits of a technology. every post I see here suggesting positive results get dowvoted faster than anything else
