"All I want is a heater/air conditioner that works, maybe cruise control, and a stereo with decent FM sensitivity/selectivity and enough station presets"
You are like the Amish: when is something "too modern"? You have a list of things that you want in a vehicle. Other people have a different list. It seems silly. Maybe your list is too much for me! What do you need cruise control for?
OK, but how does a Union help with that? It doesn't. The only difference is a Union takes a fee from your paycheck every month. They can't magically stop outsourcing or ageism, no matter what they claim.
Exactly. Signal is as secure as WhatsApp, meaning "who knows"? Signals servers are run by a single corporation. They go on about how "federated messaging" is stuck in the 90s, but that is complete bullshit.
Because tech is always going to get better and better! I had a C64 when I was a kid, and look at computers NOW! Progress is inevitable! Tech will get better and better and...oh wait, you mean Moore's Law is dead and Intels newer processors aren't any better than their last generation? Ooops.
So multiplication of 16 bit matrices is AI? Wow. amazing stuff. OP is right: there is no "AI". Just algorithms. Just because you call them "neural nets" doesn't change a damn thing.
Before you start shouting, consider that these tech companies are using your data and selling and sharing it to anyone they want. So just stop. You should be more concerned that the data exists in the first place.

That is because no one wants to work in an open floorplan. They did that at my office and now no one comes in either.
"Why is it so hard for people like you to understand that some of us use technology WE feel is appropriate"
The irony here is incredible. It is like you are dumb or something.

Read some of the responses here. Yes, people are THAT stupid.
Narcissists need to "feel good" though, so they will ignore it.
Uh huh. Amazon is going to "die" too.
Lyft is owned by GM. They don't like Uber. They sponsor all this stuff.
Surely you mean LISP, not Lisp.
They do? So where did all the union steelworkers jobs go? There isn't anything a union can do about outsourcing, except complain.
Maybe people will start realizing that the Cloud is just "someone elses servers" and you have no idea how they manage them or back them up.
Surely they mean "AI"??? Any algorithm is AI in 2017.

I earn $55k doing IT in Silicon Valley with bonuses. I am doing pretty well.
You are a ray of sunshine.

Here is the formula:

I think the purpose of a background check is to be "discriminatory". What a dope.
So no one wonders how a person named "Reality Winner" was able to get TS clearance?

" Unless they think that a customer will be trapped after uploading their data and won't want to spend the time uploading it all again."
Bingo. Like the crack dealer, first hit is free.

America isn't a democracy. The only statistic that matters is what do people who actually make the laws think?
Sorry buddy. No amount of money is going to make you live forever or go to Mars or whatever your scifi fantasy is.
Yeah, but what about Women?
