I agree, the initial set of releases were all over the place. I took the feedback from this thread and fed it to Claude along with the semver.org references that were linked here for more detailed (and pedantic) context. Makes way more sense now. Thanks for the feedback! Claude handled the cleanup. Here's the updated releases: https://github.com/derekg/ts-ssh/releases


Doubtful it will have much impact. I don't buy the central premise of the film - social media is so addictive and people are easily manipulated by it - through the power of 'genius' algorithms that work against vast stores of data. There is no mention of freewill .. are we really so easily controlled? If this technology was so powerful and able to manipulate people - how are we not using it to end racism, effect climate change, teach basic math skills, fight obesity, etc. The reason is that the technology isn't that good - and at it's best it suggests things that appeal to our base nature. It doesn't control us or even come close. Also the fucking hubris of these people to think they really had that big of an impact is a bit much. Free will and human nature are real things and social media isn't that powerful. Also with free will comes personal responsibility - this film seems to suggest that we are such sad victims and the problem isn't us but the powers that be. I'm so weak that I can't help myself - so it must be social media's fault. Give me a break.
