I think the pro-war crown really takes the military for granted, especially the junior enlisted folks. Either you provide effective leadership (from Washington, DC) or you lose the people on the ground.

If you actually give a damn about the enlisted troops the last thing you're going to be is pro war. The only people eager for war are the psychopaths who don't have to fight it.
Imagine knowing you're being sent into an utterly pointless war of aggression by a Nazi "Secretary of War" who thinks rules of engagement are fake and gay, not to defend American interests or the safety of the American people in any way, but because Israel whispered in someone's ear and they have a pile of kompromat on your pedophile, senile commander in chief.
I'd jump overboard too. At some point being a patriot means realizing your country isn't worth fighting and dying for.
One of my favorite sayings is that in theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they aren't.
My gut tells me that people working in AI ethics try to operate in theory land, while the rest of the company is dealing with the piles of money being through around. Easy to see who wins and who loses.
I am a paying user of Warp and really enjoy it when it behaves.
I do struggle with having AI forced on me at times, when I press a key errantly and seem to be driven away from the command line and deeper and deeper into AI-land with questions and "are you sure ...".
My issue is that quality has noticeably dropped over the years. I can’t justify paying more while the core functionality is getting worse. It’s been going downhill since the launch of v8. I sung its praises for many years (I’ve been using it for 18 years), but that mostly stopped after v8 was released.
I kept going with it because I thought being platform agnostic with my password manager was important. But with them taking on all these investors, watching quality drop, and now that they have everyone migrated to subscriptions… raising prices rather significantly. I’m done. I have a feeling this is just the tip of the iceberg.
I login/unlock my password manager maybe...a dozen times a week and that would be a high count when I'm doing "business" and logging in for financial things.
