If Sam believes that, will he replace himself with AI and retire already? Pretty please? … It’s so easy to catch the ultra-rich in their lies; they simply can’t be bothered to speak believably.

It’s a great experiment. You mean it may not scale up, which is a different thing entirely.

Everyone knows why. If people can’t afford food and houses, it doesn’t matter what happens in ten years. You know this, I know this, it’s basic reasoning. So don’t waste our time trying to undercut voting efforts.

Sigh.

I’m not following. Are you saying that Democrats could be easily confused with Nazis in large numbers? That’s a weird thing to say… After all, she just got thrown out of the state party. She lost in the primary to someone who’s definitely not a Nazi.

So it sounds like you’re floundering, trying to stereotype the party and failing to do so.

Of course the corporate Democrats are worthless, as are the centrists. Lots of bad shit going on in the party. But not so many Nazis, my friend. You got the wrong party.

Remember, this is not real news. She’s a loser. She lost. She means nothing, and her opinion means nothing. And that’s OK, no worries, it happens in politics… But the pundits want to make it an issue so voters forget about the issues that matter (health care, education, clean water, ending wars, etc.).

What does “enshittification” mean? How is it caused?

Basically, it can happen when one company (or a few companies) dominates a market, so they can gradually make shit worse for everyone, trying to make just a bit more money.

Federation is the solution. As long as there are many servers, run by different owners and administrators, any single server can only fuck itself over.

That is why the open source community likes protocols, interoperability, APIs, and federation. No single software package, or server, should control the entire market. Single-point failure means brittle architecture, whether through accident or intent.

We could say this about all kinds of property. What is he, socialist? … What a pointless non-story.

Is it common? How would we know? By investigating.

Come on, quit thinking abstractly and use reality as a test. Trump has been looking for those fake voters for a decade. A decade! He didn’t find any… Why is that? Not because of your master plan, my friend. But because voter fraud is just not happening on a measurable scale… Or, to put it differently, are you smarter than state election officials and the DoJ? And even if one of you is, scale that up. How many people are as magical as you?

This is almost correct. In reality, rich people inside Google got richer. That was their sole goal. That is all they wanted.

Because look, we all told everyone that the AI bubble was in fact a bubble, and that Google was destroying its own search engine, which of course would hurt them later. On the one hand, you could argue they didn’t believe us. But I think they didn’t hedge their bets because they didn’t care either way.

Fuck the company’s future if you can get rich now, am I right? Never underestimate human greed.

Correction: Reddit will force bots to log in. Everyone else already left.

And this is why you don’t turn to Bluesky. If they’ll censor this, they’ll censor anything.

Lol this is why you don’t seriously invest in crypto, folks.

Nobody cares about Reddit these days. The bots took it over years ago. Like so many things, there was a time when it mattered.

Lol these guys are such bad liars. Because look, if his AI could do that, he would purchase catastrophic insurance for his own company. Right?

Compared to what? That’s the entire point, isn’t it?

I think that woman doesn’t know who everybody is. It’s awkward when people don’t think about the words they’re saying.

This is simpler than you think. AI is a bubble. It is a giant bubble.

Many people, including many government workers, are getting rich right now by riding the bubble. They and their funders have zero interest in worrying about what will happen when it bursts.

(Also, AI is vaporware. It can’t replace workers in huge numbers. So nobody serious is actually worried about that… Of course there are some occupations that have shifted, but far fewer than you would expect.)

I don’t know about it being an average Democrat. There really aren’t that many average Democrats that I know of. Not anymore.
