The Bluesky Mir is coming ;)

Huh? You're upset that Jack left Bluesky because people there didn't like him? I'm confused.

Sounds like Jack went full Kanye, and got booted out of Bluesky.

He didn't get "booted", but it was a rather amusing situation, where he dropped a bunch of seed money on Jay's project to make Bluesky... only to find out that the vast majority of the people who flocked there don't actually like him, and weren't afraid to let him know ;)

1) You don't open to more people than you have the capacity to serve.

2) They do not use the same backend. Bluesky's backend is specifically designed to fix Mastodon's design flaws that make it so annoying.

3) Bluesky is growing far faster than Mastodon.

I already fail to understand why you need a different app for different webpages. Why do you need an app for Facebook, for Youtube, for whatever else where there's a webpage you can access with a browser?

Let's hope it stays that way, dies a fiery death and serves as a warning for wannabe-copycats to avoid ideas like this like the plague.

It did get press cover? Am I reading the wrong (or was that right?) news outlets?

Seriously, what?

Ok, could someone please explain to me whether I'm just living under a rock and am the only one who never heard about this new hip and trendy product, or whether this is just a very weak attempt to astroturf for yet another AI crap nobody gives a fuck about to pretend it's relevant.

Dude, get your head out of your ass. Quite frankly, if you want to make a point, make it one that is a little less ridiculous.

Most education facility today is pretty good at stunting the growth of your mind, no aid from ChatGPT required.

The real market is investors. He's seeking a $6B valuation on x.ai, which is just nonsensical vs. what they're offering.

How is a flow chart...

You stopped after reading two word and ignored every other word in the post. *eyeroll*

Predicting words is just about resonance

The word "resonance" is a non-sequitur in that sentence. You might as well have written, "Predicting words is all about Australopithecus."

For me it's the Final Fantasy II trap.

As a kid, my first run through Final Fantasy II, I had gotten like halfway through when I hit a fairly difficult area, and I was getting tired of the fights, so rather than spending time leveling up and whatnot before going there, I just increasingly started making a habit of running away from enemies. And it worked great, I got further and further and further, really quickly. But my level correspondingly fell further and further behind what it should have been for the area, to the point where ultimately I could no longer beat the bosses and advance further.

Could you explain then why they flock to Sweden, of all the places? It's not exactly known for its ruthless Ayn-Randish capitalism.

I can already pay with my debit or credit card for free, why the hell would I accept a 2% surcharge to pay with that junk?
