I agree with the perspective of prevention. I think people (even ones who have done bad things) have utility, and preventing them from causing further harm (rehabilitation, etc.) is what we'd have in a more ideal society.
But, and I hope this isn't too personal... I have to admit some merit in wishing death, I think. (Sans suffering or sadism.) Before your dad was out of your life, did you ever wish he were dead?
Like, I cut my abusive mom (+family) off in 2019. She made threats that had me on edge for months, but she was also in bad health. I have to admit that the fact she could die any day really kept me optimistic.
She was lying about her bad health and is still alive, but years have passed and I feel safer now. But I still admit that I'd feel safer.

I appreciate your response here and agree with you too. I've been thinking of "Everyone I Don't Like Is A Pedophile" for awhile now (especially with Elon Musk's "pedo guy" thing in 2018).
"They seem to only exist as a boogeyman" hits the nail on the head. On the other side, if you argue, "Wait, pedophiles are just normal people, you can't identify one by their vibes," it sounds like you're just trying to humanize them in their defense.

I sometimes wonder about these little pieces of poetry which proliferate. Every phrase is an invented thing and there was always a first person to utter it. I wonder who it was.

The "Kinsey" scale is actually like the pH scale in that it has no bounds. You've move beyond "Entirely Homosexual". Congratulations!

I think of myself as someone who reads a lot and even then I have only read one (and started a few others)! Two books is probably more than anyone I know except for one specific person

Reply to comment by devtesla in Why doesn't a VC just invest in AMD and pay a dozen software engineers to improve AMD libraries? by twovests
i mean, the chain here is still "AI" so it's not linked to anything real

Reply to comment by devtesla in Why doesn't a VC just invest in AMD and pay a dozen software engineers to improve AMD libraries? by twovests
Even if AMD would still sell all the GPUs they make, I still think the "invest in AMD and make it worth more by improving its libraries" is still an easy path to make a profit, right? If AMD GPUs could suddenly run all the models that Nvidia GPUs could do, then AMD stock would just be worth more?
This would fuck the buyer even more (making the GPU shortage even worse, I think) but I do like the idea of having a Linux machine with an AMD GPU in the next 10 years.

On Steam, you're better off playing with Proton than with the native Linux version because of how stable Win32's API is.
I'm not surprised their solution starts at "statically link almost everything". (It's the big thing that makes projects written in Rust or Go, which statically link in compile time, so ezpz to use.) I really appreciated this post :D
