Comment FB was great initially (Score 1) 198

At first it was a good way to connect with friends, once Zuck figured out how to Enshitify it it wasn't worth wading through the ads and slop to stay on. Two failings of the internet 1) Built in security in email and routing ( you should be able to have open internet but also trusted internet on layer 3 that doesn't allow connections if one enables it or even to route to your IP if you don't trust them) 2) No social networking (no one really saw this coming when the internet started, and it would have been nice if someone would have defined that before tech companies got to it)

Comment Money changes you (Score 4, Insightful) 76

When your whole life is focused on that, you really lose sight of what is good for other people, you'll make decisions on what is good for your bottom line and then deal with the fallout. We have seen this time and time again from the tech industry, take social media for an example (We'll enslave humanity if it increases ad revenue). AI as a product is nice now because no enshittification yet. They are currently still trying to get their hooks into people with freemium models, once they need to extract revenue it's going to get scary.

Comment This isn't the first time this has been done (Score 1) 151

There were always a few teachers that would not grade homework and have the entire course based off of exams. Homework was just to give people experience so they could learn and pass the exams. A lot of teachers and force it but it doesn't have to be enforced. Should be learning to learn the course material and not just to get a grade. If you passed the class and don't remember anything then that's the issue.

Comment You need incentives to do better (Score 0) 152

You can't just give people money or things and expect improvements or happiness. You need to help them back on their feet and give them an incentive to do constructive things that will help their self esteem. Another thing that helps is giving some people purpose though work. Some people can't work.

We would be considered in a recession if not for FANG stocks, so they are propping up the market and they are doing this on credit. So take economic activity or from AI and you have a problem. AI is betting on 1) we can replace workers and get revenue so need compute 2) much more data center spend but that is a FOMO pissing match and if people don't figure out the revenue it's there it's a bad day for everyone
