Google's ranking algorithm downgrades sites where content is dominated by ads, so I think the dynamic here is the other way around: Recipe sites layered on huge numbers of ads in order to generate revenue, which caused their search ranking to drop, so then they had to go all-in on SEO to fool the ranking algorithm into raising their visibility.

Indeed. Avoid Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft and a number of others. Regard them as malicious and uncaring if you cannot avoid them and prepare accordingly.

Same for Microsoft or Google. If you need to depend on their accounts, chances are you will get shafted at some time. Hence do not let that need arise. Yes, that is difficult. But they can throw you out for basically any reason and you can do nothing.

In a similar fashion, lots of YouTube-dependent creators have gotten stabbed by Meta recently. The whole thing is broken and there needs to be legal recourse and penalties for platforms that get this large.

China has eastern coastal regions with growth from migrants. it's only a matter of where the production and vitality will shift for them. They'll be around, the countries I mentioned will evaporate to nothing though.

Democrats are just as guilty over past decades of helping to set the present.

Tesla and others are just tossing the old batteries to those 3 companies doing the recycling at a loss thus far. They're not made to factor in and bear the cost of recycling when they sell a car

I think it would be profitable to grow ICE fuel though, cheaper than prospecting, drilling, pumping and global distribution of petrol. Just tanks, maybe heaters that could be solar in some regions, the cheapest food possible for living things, and boring separation techniques that can be done with 19th century level tech.

Are you consulting or have business making something I'll be buying? The costs of your tool would be tiny amount of your business or consulting profits and an expense to write off in taxes, negligible effect on what others would have to pay.

Really, it's not typical business that will suffer the most in the next 2 years; most can even wait it out for their employeee machines since most are just doing rote office work.

thought he had a personal business doing that, would be totally diluted by his profits and a write-off, and not matter at all for my costs even if I bought something the result of his work

What they do with advanced chips is indeed their Manhattan Project though, and they've already started.

you're hililarous, USA doesn't even have such machines, we buy them.

People can work for whomever the fuck they want, they don't need your approval or U.S. government orange clown approval or pants pooper Joe approval.

China thinks long term, USA waits for next beep of phone for text or social media post.

you're funny, thinking copying tech means "stolen"

You use all kind of copied tech every day, including from Chinese civilization. It's all fair game and how the human race advanced.

Notice they at least are making advanced lithography machines and going to refine them, while USA is a buyer. We don't make any at all.

The goal (not yet achieved, obviously) is to build AI that can learn how to interact with humans the way humans do, not to build machines that need carefully-curated data and instructions. We've had those for three quarters of a century now.
