Oh come on. Quick look at colorshift (13x faster): HashMap in hot loop (unoptimized Rust vibeslop) is slower than indexed arrays (ASM). No shit. Numbers like 17x should raise eyebrows but reading the comments nobody is thinking anymore. This AI psychosis has fried people's brains
I ported the Omarchy screensaver engine (ttfx) from Rust to x86-64 assembler, and it's up to 17x faster!! One-shot translation by Opus 5.5. We keep drilling until the agentic drill bit hits bedrock! github.com/omacom/ttfx/pull/…

Seen this play out multiple times in history:
Step 1) get rich making world threatening technology.
Step 2) retire to campaign to save the world from said technology.

hi, i'm a sole proprietor/founder in Austria and i earn many many multiples of what i'd earn as an employee, despite "predatory income tax". in fact, i opt out of the many tax optimizations i could use because i like having good schools and as high a standard of living as possible for everyone.
the great thing about the EU is that you can just live under any tax regime you like in any of the 27 member states. it's all about trade offs. if poland works for you, fantastic! go build there.
and if i may add one more thing: if the CEO of a startup, especially pre-revenue, lives "barely any better than a regular employee" then the system works as intended. fact of the matter is most startups are bad. you are not special because you are trying out a shit idea and fail. but i'll happily pay taxes so you can try your shit idea, fail, and can still live.

funnily enough, software people also think they know how the rest of the world works, because they can make computers dance.
which explains all the abmysal software in education, health, or any other industry that has a human component.
that old meme of coders being anti-social neckbeards is wrong. such a caricature doesn't have any influence in the real world, precisely because that'd require interacting with squishy human parts.
reality is much worse. reality is full of people with little understanding of anything outside their narrow domain, paired with immense amounts of hubris and power, who get mics shoved into their faces on every fucking topic imaginable.

Remember:
bombs and other munitions are Ordnance.
A local law enacted by a municipal council or government is an ordinance.
The spelling matters. It’s the difference between picking up your dog’s poo and dropping a JDAM on it.
