Nah, they actually never prototype anything. They just vibe-code apps and deliver that. Those aren't their prototypes; they're their products.

Which is hilarious, really.

Extreme prototyping is what I'm doing: coming up with wildly different variations of the same app, to test out entire architectures, designs, and tech stacks with AI-generated code.

The result is not a deliverable. It's the dynamic design document.

Extreme Prototyping

Because of concentrated media propaganda?

Yeah I can’t talk to your context, when I say Boomers it should be constrained to Western anglosphere Boomers - that’s who I’m talking about as that’s what I understand. Soviet bloc Boomers had a different arc so I can’t say for them.

Western-Anglo Boomers weren’t just naive, they were massively programmed and ate it up. I agree that they are retarded in that they don’t have a clue how programmed they were.

And that’s why I posted this. They’re so naive they think they’re owed something but are literally going to take out more than they ever put in; which is absurd.

Fuller had a section talking about this programming as a positive in Critical Path: nostr:note1zx050vhq9cxxzz5a8583redeqhl42afkv666jwldnfe2gukf5skqcjrmdc

But even he would have been disturbed to see how they turned out.

Again I agree.

They were naive and from my POV even retarded.

see I'm only like 20 years from them. but our situation is likely too different as a post soviet colony...

>”the problem was (and largely still is even with the current gen) that they think that pension are "savings".”

Kind of. The problem is Western Boomers have a bastardised view of “””the social contract”””.

They believe, as there forebears did, that kids would look after their parents.

They believe this was systematised through the Boomer’s god - the State.

But that was never true, it’s not what happened, it is not reality.

The State setup a Ponzi scheme and the Boomers, in their arrested development, bought it hook, line, and sinker.

You’re right in that they see pensions as Savings. They think that they paid in and that money would be there for them in old age.

But where I disagree is that they weren’t scammed. They are adolescents in senior bodies. They were too brainwashed by the State (particularly via M5M), they believed too much, didn’t think to question anything, and now we have to deal with a massive generation of old people who live in an alternate reality as effectively children.

I’m not prescribing malice, rather naivety to a degree which we as humanity have no historic records of. It’s so bad I personally find it evil but I understand the pushback I get on going after Boomers too.

Taxes are ostensibly meant to fund the things your Gov was elected to do now - those things which need a budget, and people pay taxes which feeds that budget.

There’s no sense in inflation adjusting. The Gov needed to be funded in 1976 when these Boomers started working and they weren’t operating off 2025 figures then, they were operating off numbers at the time.

As are we now. We’re paying them more in pensions than they ever contributed to treasury, in large part because their generation blindly and mindlessly supported fiat Governments deficit spending and got us into today.

The point of the post was mostly to debunk their claim about paying in to the system - even if their taxes were only reserved for their pensions they don’t cover so even at a basic level, they are “wrong”.

That’s just asinine. People run YouTube channels out of Israel speaking out against Israel.

Tak uvidíme, jak dlouho nám ta uhlíková neutralita vydrží 😃

If you are journalist you are murdered by IDF before hamas get you.

International journalist can get into gaza, upload story and their publisher can publish it when they are safe. So your argument is not valid.

Only reason why Israel not enabling journalist is to cover warcrimes and genocide.

This is using raw historic data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics for median weekly wages * 52, and applying the tax brackets from each financial year and the Medicare levy without any subsidies (so that $33k paid in is an overestimate).

The pension figure is for this FY, it’s indexed and will go up next year and thereafter.

BOB THE AVERAGE AUSSIE BOOMER

After seeing one too many “I pAiD iN aLL mY LifE!!” Boomer posts recently, my autism got the better of me so I decided to debunk Bob The Boomer’s rubbish once and for all.

Boomers born in 1958 are now eligible for the aged pension (at 67) in Australia - $29,874 per year for singles.

If Bob entered the workforce at 18 in 1976 and worked the average job his entire life, he earned $2,049,181 and paid a total of $413,082 income tax - equivalent to 13.83 years worth of pension (less actually, as the pension is indexed and goes up each year so he will receive more).

Those taxes are meant to, you know, HAVE FUNDED THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT over the last 50 years and all the free shit they doled out.

But in fact, if Bob lives the average 18 years of life he has ahead of him (per the ABS), he will receive more in aged pension than the entirety of his income tax contributions paid in. So he had free school, free Uni, a military, emergency services, R&D, everything that the State provided, and now he gets more than all of his money back via the pension. 10% of annual Federal expenditures go to givING Bob more money than he ever paid in.

But wait, there’s more!

Bob paid $33,283 in total Medicare levies over his career.

The Government pays about $6,717 in Medicare expenses per year per person - the figure is much higher for seniors but they don’t make this data easy to find lest we all realise another place Bob is robbing us blind.

So not only is Bob getting all his taxes back and then some, but he’s also getting all his Medicare levies back plus 3X more than he put in over the course of his pension years!

When Bob says “I pAiD iN aLL mY LifE!!” the reality is, on net he didn’t pay a damn thing. He lived at the expense of future generations and continues to do so without even a modicum of understanding that is what he is doing.

This system MUST NOT CONTINUE. It has already destroyed us economically, and it’s destroying future generations not born who are being forced to carry this ridiculous parasite on its back.

Jak říkám již déle, navýšení výdajů na obranu může paradoxně snížit obranyschopnost ČR, protože pokud to povede k poklesu životní úrovně, mohou pak být lidi snadněji koupitelní.

⚡️🇫🇷🇩🇪🇬🇧🇺🇸🇮🇹 FLASHBACK - 106 years ago today, the Treaty of Versailles was signed. It put an end to the First World War between Germany and the Allies.

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh issued a strong rebuke to recent developments, stating:

“We demand that the United States provide compensation for the destruction of our nuclear infrastructure. Iran will be filing formal complaints with the United Nations.”

Khatibzadeh emphasized that the recent attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities have dealt a severe blow to ongoing diplomatic efforts. “We can no longer trust those who strike our territory while pretending to negotiate,” he said. “What could not be achieved through force will certainly not be achieved through diplomacy.”

He also criticized IAEA Director Rafael Grossi, accusing him of playing a “regrettable” role in enabling the attacks, and called for him to be held accountable.

It‘s not easy to make an LLM sound human. On the other hand, I have a feeling that I sound more and more like an AI.

Who‘s prompting who here?

Repeat after me: existence exists.

You’re a genius.

Right, you’re in charge of the Core vs Knots debate now 😂
