Macroeconomic theory was surprisingly deficient in the mid-century Soviet Union, or rather someone there took Marx's surplus value theory to the logical extreme, while ignoring all other research on the subject. But hey, not the first time people slavishly follow a single source material to their detriment. (most religions are the same way)
I'm sure the Billionaire class will tell us normal people what to do. We put them on a pedestal, put them in office, or let them buy our votes in elections.
And you're a Marxist if you aren't on board with allowing our innovative captains of industry to steer this country, no this entire world, to greater heights.

2025 is the year that personal computing is no longer personal.
You are not going to be permitted to handle your own affairs offline. Everything as a service because AI will be in everything and the equipment must be in the cloud. Average consumers and gamers cannot compete with trillions in hype investment. All you can do is wait for the bubble to pop, and hope your retirement or national economy is not popped with it.
Dude. Give it up. The money was stolen and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it (FSLIC anyone?). Stop whining and start stealing. Everyone else is.
Yes, they do, you just think ethics aren't a thing. The problem here is you.
I used to believe like you do and I still behave that way; however, is 'ethics' really a thing anymore? All day, every day, I see unethical actions that nobody addresses. Look at how Bin Laden was captured. Nary a peep out of anyone. Look at how Supreme Court justices are somehow fortunate enough to be able to have 'friends' who gift them things a common person could only dream of. I will not even mention 'he who should not be named'. Congress is a mess of unethical actions that they can not even be investigated for anymore. ABSCAM anyone? What about the straight up looting of the Social Security fund. Yeah, yeah, I know, it is all safe in government bonds... and yet somehow or another, even just 10 years after the law passed that allowed it, there were cries about how the Social Security fund would be insolvent. When that law was passed, the Social Security fund had 300 billion dollars in excess funds. Once that money became part of the General Fund (through Bonds), it all evaporated.
No, there is nothing ethical about this world. I feel like a sucker for trying to be ethical within it.
Think about a thermostat, it's awake, aware of it surrounding temperature, it "feels" that the it is too hot, which is unsettling, and causes it to signal the AC motor to turn on and suddenly feels ok, no more tension.
What does 'awake' mean in relation to a thermostat? It is clear what it means in relation to a human or animal, not so clear with plants or microorganisms, but an inanimate object?
Truly an idiot to believe in such fairy tale nonsense.
First thing I do in any Claude config: Don't praise me, or my ideas. Stick to the facts.
Cuts a lot of the anthromorphic psychology games by half. Only half because even Opus doesn't follow directions all the time.
Let's not forget that this nation's government works for the billionaires.
To quote a line from the OG Animaniacs, the best cartoon in history:
"Whoa. Dumber than advertised."
Isn't this guy supposed to be one of those super-respected "intellectuals?"
I think old age is getting to him.
I've had convos with some AI chat bots and all I can think is "it needs constant correction, outright makes shit up, this is really just a reflector and cross-referencer, this isn't 'smart' in any way."
Zuck is fucked.
Only if he does not pay enough money to the right people. He is stupid, so he may make that mistake; however, it is perfectly clear that if you give the right amount of money to the right amount of people, you can do whatever you want without concern.
Good point. We have absolutely no history of building steel structures in the ocean. Certainly not a fleet of them all around the world for the last century and a half.
Good point. We have absolutely no history of having sailors constantly painting those steel structures to keep them protected from the harsh environment. No sir. All of those steel structures are protected once and then forgotten about. No need for constant maintenance.
(WTF)
Not deleting the password from memory is where Edge ultimately exposes itself excessively compared to competition. This is what happens when you have programmers that only think in terms of a Turing machine abstraction, versus doing practical threat modeling.
Actually, the website says "Coming Soon"
CEO Ryan Cohen couldn't answer the question on CNBC either. He was just stuck in a loop, like a stoner forgetting his McDonald's order parked in the drive thru.
Further, it's impossible to tell which channel has human-generated content and which is all-AI.
I am not entirely certain that this claim is true. It is clearly true in the case that you are looking for content that you are not familiar with by 'people' that you are not familiar with, and yet, somehow or another, I do not see any AI content on YouTube. Occasionally, I will see suggestions on the sidebar that are pretty clearly AI generated, but again, I do not watch them. It took clicking on only 1 to recognize all of them. Humans and human generated content have a uniqueness to them that AI content can not imitate.
Oh, there is one AI generated video that I watch from time to time. It is based on the song War Pigs by Black Sabbath. I think it was created by someone named Gabrielle Marie. Fantastic visualizations. Really moody and artistic.
