Elon Musk should be abolished.

Yeah if AI was actually good you wouldn't need to mandate it. No one was like "everyone here must use Google search".

Companies fill up with idiots and parasites. People who are adept at thriving in the role without actually producing value. Google is no exception.

Assuming what you're saying about the harms of consuming pornography, is it the state's responsibility? Is it a top priority? Do we trust conservatives to implement a solution in good faith?

The answer to all of those I think is no.

There's no analogous ID check for violent media, so far as I know.

There could be a raging wildfire and I would hesitate if a Republican said "let me deal with it". They are fundamentally untrustworthy.

That's on top of the deep irony of the same party that goes on about "small government" and "parents rights" is typically the same one pushing draconian anti-porn laws. It's a joke. "A government small enough to fit in your bedroom". Their motivations are so corrupt I am extremely skeptical of anything they propose.

Will anyone learn from this? Will any of the people who were wrong lose credibility? Doubtful.

Saint Luigi preserve us.

I'm sure there are companies that are at least more good than bad. Teachers pay teachers. Meetup. Bandcamp before they sold. That's all I have off the top of my head. But even so capitalism invites cruelty, and the best intentions can easily wither under the pressure to make more money.

I work for a very large company involved in medicine. They make machines to do like blood work. That's fine. People need that. But they treat many of their workers like trash. I don't get paid for holidays and get the legal minimum sick leave per year. Their mission isn't especially evil , but their behavior sucks.

I think a good step would be if people could admit the companies they work for are making the world worse. I've met some people who work for Google who do some backflips about how no the company is good and definitely they're good people and it's not the $300k salary talking.

6th grade is reading for plot. It's able to read the story and understand that the hobbits brought the ring to Mordor, and Aragorn fought in Gondor.

Anything about symbols, themed, subtext, unreliable narrators all comes later.

Managers are often idiots in over their heads. AI is really aggravating that problem.

“I’m a Grok guy,” said Vance. “I think it’s the best. It’s also the least woke!”

What a fucking idiot. Really wants everyone to go back to sleep

Business Idiots. Ed Zitron wrote a whole thing about how many business leaders are out of touch with users and their own products. They live in their own little pocket dimension with each other, and only really care about shareholders.
