@codinghorror I’m not from the US, so to a degree none of my business, and definitely outside my expertise. But.. would this work? The one historical attempt to secede didn’t go so well. Wouldn’t the federal government just roll in with the military again? Or is the idea that California’s economic power is such that Washington couldn’t do that? (Genuine questions from someone trying to understand your position, btw. Absolutely not trying to poke holes or even “just ask questions”.)

@codinghorror@infosec.exchange openAI seems sleazy and creeps me out in the way that big tech is very often sleazy and creepy. I don’t love them. But I’ll take traditional grift over Anthropic’s brand of … I don’t even know what to call it.
