Isn't it weird how when billionaires make more money "a rising tide raises all boats", but when the poorest make more money, suddenly there's extreme resource scarcity?

Yeah, this pretty clearly isn't intended to block bots lol

My (WASP) grandmother used to do this too. The fruit ones were alright. The other ones were not.

If you think about the corporation as a vehicle for investor capital rather than an entity which provides services, the prevalence of this decision makes a lot more sense.

No true leftist would post this

I mean, just last year Disney learned the hard way that acquiescing to Trump's whim invites volatility when they suspended Jimmy Kimmel in June. Subscribers fled in droves, they had to bring him back on... It was a shit show they're unlikely to want to repeat. The easy solution is to make no publicly visible moves and wait patiently.

Very true, but investors are sensitive to changes in the wind. Trump is looking very weak these days, and any company who allows themselves to be cowed by his parlor tricks will lose investor confidence.

Does it support unit dependencies? That's pretty much the only reason I use systemd outside of work. Edit: ah yeah it sure does. I know what I'm playing with next weekend.

Maybe. I think a sizable group of people would rather put fast fashion back in the bag.

Hey thanks! Feels like home, unfortunately!

I wasn’t sure what to make of claims that this random techbro is a fascist, so I decided to look for clues. I found this article from last month in minutes, and after reading it, I require no further convincing. Guy’s a Nazi whether he knows it or not.

Slava Ukraini and pass the bottle

When I see this, I feel profoundly confused. Also embarrassed.

20 years ago I was at a university that was studying mRNA bombing as a way to deliver “impossible” vaccines. We were young millennials, still dreaming of a better future. We really thought that 80% of cancers would have effective vaccines by the time we were 50. Instead, most of us are repeating that MMR is safe, moving up our first colonoscopies, and exhaustedly reminding our parents not to believe anything they see on the Internet. If this isn’t the worst timeline it’s an honorable fuckin’ mention.

AI has been bobbing in and out of winters for 50 years. The big difference this time is that the winter will be taking the global economy with it.

I genuinely don’t understand what you’re trying to say. This is a well-documented phenomenon over the last 50 years. Roger Schank and Marvin Minsky—two leading AI researchers who experienced the “winter” of the 1970s—warned the business community that enthusiasm for AI had spiraled out of control in the 1980s and that disappointment would certainly follow. As I said in the post that you categorically dismissed, the only thing that’s different this time is the stakes will kill the economy rather than AI research.
