What’s crazy is I instantly clocked it as AI slop just from the thumbnail, and I’m not even wearing my glasses.

Yeah, it's not that he did it per se, it's the idea that he probably did it because he's a classless fat troll.

Same with some of his policies; grand scheme of things if they were presented by most other people I'd have little objection, but because they're motivated by greed, hate or narcissism I don't want to give the twat an inch.

Visually it's striking how similar it looks to how Nazi Germany also put eagle motif crests everywhere.

Yes, and even more to the point, it's about how a group of bad actors have managed to co-opt feminism from being a progressive leftist cause to being a conservative hate group.

That's exactly the reason why trans bigotry as a "feminist" movement has had so much effort put into stoking it. There's a ton of dark money from Evangelicals being funnelled into astroterfing to divide progressives by forcing wide wedge issues. They don't care about trans people, they care about turning non-conservatives against each other so that they can scoop up the disaffected to their cause.

Ten short years ago the average person in the street didn't care either way about trans people. Sure, they didn't get much recognition or support from government bodies, but neither did they have this army of self-proclaimed feminists trying to persuade them to kill themselves.

The consultant and artist who conceived and realized that sign both went to Yale. The company who holds a regulatory-captured monopoly on all Texas roadside produce stands paid their agency $6.5M for this design.

And just because I made this up, doesn't mean it's not true.

the handful of upvotes I’m getting lets me know that others feel the same way

LOL, I don't know what the numbers were when you wrote that, but "appeal to upvotes" as an argument is hilariously bad for someone who's being ratioed as heavily as you are.

Support callers for banks and ecommerce maybe, but Jira is a tool for educated professionals.

The stupid thing about replacing staff with "AI customer contact" is that the AI can only really spit out the same stuff you put in its knowledge base, i.e. the stuff that in the documentation in the first place (and maybe perform limited actions that also would have had to be implemented as forms). All it does is save someone broadly 0 seconds on what it would have taken to do a regular search of the documentation.

If I'm actually phoning up Atlassian to ask something it's because what I want isn't available online, and AI doesn't solve that at all.

Six months' pay isn't bad. Certainly enough time to get together with your former colleagues to develop and roll out something far better than JIRA...

Something like this appeared near the Miramax offices in LA, where if you showed it your bare feet it gave you a milkshake. It remains a mystery who put it there.

 

Not keen on mentai, so I bit into Yor’s Black Buns instead.
