Who urinated in your Golden Grahams this morning? Is your name Mullenweg?

Guide the ship. Don't piss into the wind and get the crew wet. If you do that, they should make you walk the plank.
When all the people you work with don't like you, maybe you're the problem.
At first I was like "who the fewk cares about this story/these people anymore" and then I watched the trailer. Holy shit I don't even think I can watch that. She's an absolutely terrifying creature wearing a human skin mask.
Just like me stealing your knowledge by asking you a bunch of questions over time. But I'm paying you.
The administration are setting up (or being set up) to blame China for the AI bubble collapsing. They need a (godless communist) scapegoat for the corruption and collusion that's causing the huge dumping of public money into private corporate pockets.
is the answer Bitcoin?
help me understand...
These are The Economist's "estimates", also known as bullshit. You know, The Economist: the weekly magazine of classical economic liberalism where the journalists are anonymous, photography is of the stock variety, and the articles are business friendly. Also the leading advertiser for the fossil fuel industry.
Assume differently! This is the USA. The only thing the DOJ is doing is protecting Trump from prosecution and maybe going after what he thinks are his enemies.
Trump appointed his own lawyer as the AG after firing Pam Bondi, another one of his lawyers, for not rounding up all of his enemies fast enough and appearing on TV too often, making a fool of herself.
The DOJ is no longer separate from the executive branch in a way that it would or could perform an investigation on members of the executive branch.
This sounds like Palantir's Gotham at work. All your data is available to LLMs that are used by any agency involved in national security to detect security threats, including narcotics trafficking small amounts of weed.
DHH might identify as a classic liberal
His "As I Remember London" post is turgid with pride for the far-right nationalists marching in London. (Which he visited once as a teen) He's upset about things he's experiencing via video and tweets.

I had Audacity on linux and never found a use for it. I guess if you're cheap and you don't need the full capabilities of a DAW, Audacity might be good enough. I guess it's more like what pro-tools was - a file based recorder with editing capabilities. I don't know if anyone in their right mind uses it in place of something like a DAW, most of which you need to pay for.
"I hope it isn't too late to avoid the most concerning architectures and that OpenAI will stop here"
Why hope? If OpenAI thinks it will give them an edge, they'll pursue it as far as it will go. If they don't someone else will.
I thought that's why our C-suite kept spending hundreds of millions on stock buybacks, but then we got bought by a company nobody ever heard of at a pretty hefty premium. Meanwhile, people have actually seen their salaries decrease (you tech workers are overpaid compared to the rest of company! actual thing an executive said) and the idea of retaining talent is just an idea they're looking for ways to solve that don't involve paying the proles more money.
I thought they were creating a stock control "moat" but really they were just building up the amount of stock they controlled so they can walk out with hundreds of millions rather than tens of millions. So not only will they get a huge premium on the existing stock when it's taken private, they'll get huge payouts to leave once the new overlords decide to shift them out and replace them with people they like.
"In Pulse surveys and conversations with many of you, we’ve heard that too much work requires coordination across teams, debates take too long, and decision-making rights are unclear. I’m sure many of you have felt that you spend too much time “aligning” rather than building, shipping, or serving customers. "
Dara is saying "you asked, and we delivered!"
Mostly we take pulse surveys for granted or know that nothing will come of them, but hey, they actually worked for once!
As I sit here watching but not really watching Claude code up a complex fix for a race condition that should have been obvious, I'm tickled by idea that any of the Daras or Bezoses out there would let anyone but other capital-class investors own a piece of the work the robots we unwillingly trained to do our jobs.
The capital class does not want the proles (generally) to own the means of production. If they/we did, the amount of money they could suck out of our pockets would be limited, and would so limit the power they could wield.
The customers are the ad bidders. You know, the ones paying google for your attention.
My guess is that google hasn't seen AdX reach its full, glorious potential yet and they think that just around the corner they'll make some kind of breakthrough that will make AdX worth 100x its current value.
