Maybe someone should write a new Art of War to explain to tech CEOs the basic ins and outs of technology development.

• Like you can’t throw more developers on a project to make it finish faster.
• Cutting budgets isn’t just free money, they come with detriments.
• You can’t scamp on security. It can take a single zero day to bankrupt a company.
• There are limits to an internet connection. You can’t expect everyone to have gigabit internet.

The basic shit every person working in the field understands. Except for the out-of-touch management. Call it the Art of Commerce or something.

They used to think that, but it is actually not that bad.

Like iterations with machine learning, you can train it with optimized output.

That isn’t the dumb part about this.

I believe it won’t work.

They would have to change so much info that won’t make a coherent whole. So many alternative facts that clash with so many other aspects of life. So asking about any of it would cause errors because of the many conflicts.

Sure it might work for a bit, but it would quickly degrade and will be so much slower than other models since it needs to error correct constantly.

An other thing is that their training data will also be very limited, and they would have to check every single other one thoroughly for “false info”. Increasing their manual labour.

Sure, and where is your proof that Bill needs one, let alone uses one?

And don’t come with a list of actions the majority of people don’t care about.

The charity did more than some good though.

Also, name one good historical person that didn’t do at least some bad.

It is almost like things aren’t black and white but more like Yin and Yang.

you should have a basic level of familiarity with the computer you’re using, same as any other tool

Obviously not, they can use it without that understanding just fine for whatever they want to do. That is enough understanding for them. If their computer explodes, they just buy an other one.

It is the perfect analogy, because you are a techy, not a survival hunter.

You buying at a grocery store is out of convenience, the alternative is learning how to hunt like a survival hunter.

Just like how the average user wants the convenience of easy to use software, because they don’t want to learn the alternative like you.

If everyone was like you, then easy to use software wouldn’t be selling so much.

Sure, but if you look at the top quality softwares, the majority of them are paid.

Because money is a big encouragement to make them as flawless as possible. Something FOSS just doesn’t have.
