The thing is that words can have a very broad range of meaning depending on who uses them and how (among many other factors), but you can't accurately code all of that into a form that computers can understand. Even ignoring bad actors it makes certain things very difficult, like if you ever want to search for something that just happens to share words with something completely different which is very popular.

Yea, seems like a fun and quirky feature, but unfortunately I don't think there's anything big tech companies can do at this point to turn things around with public opinion given how utterly egregious their other sins have been (and continue to be).

I found some of my favourite bands by downloading mislabelled songs on limewire.

I have to admit, I have questions about the impact of spending too much time deep inside machine logic territory.

Yea, work in and of itself is great. You have to do SOMETHING with your time every day, and doing something productive is extremely satisfying. Filling out spreadsheets for 8 hours with a 2 hour commute then going home to eat instant ramen in a noisy shoebox is slightly less satisfying.

I think I've used Amazon a grand total of twice in my life. Got a cheap knockoff of what I actually ordered both times.

I can't wait until people find out that you don't even need to train it on secrets, for it to "leak" secrets.

If you happen to enjoy spending your time listening to your so-called team mates actively trying to force a surrender vote because your bot lane got one less minion kill on the first wave than the other team's mid laner.

And people wonder why there's so much push back against everything corps/gov does these days. They do not act in a manner which encourages trust.

You are once again building a flawed model of the dynamic at play here in an attempt to ease the discomfort you feel from encountering something that doesn't make sense to you (why did I choose to join this community?). I'm not even attempting to build any counterarguments because the responses I've gotten don't even attempt to understand what I've said in the beginning. To be utterly frank I just lack respect for people who think of themselves as any flavour of anarchist while still dreaming of a system as thoroughly rigid as the artificially created Internet. You pretend to hate the system while desperately trying to invent excuses for continuing to make yourself at home within it.

I don't need to excuse your imagination.

Because people aren't one dimensional objects.
