How does one even pull that off? What would be her explanation to friends and family? Or did she slowly lower her tone over the course of months or years, so they didn't even notice?

On the flip side, what if this comes to pass?

First @Neuralink product will enable someone with paralysis to use a smartphone with their mind faster than someone using thumbs

Later versions will be able to shunt signals from Neuralinks in brain to Neuralinks in body motor/sensory neuron clusters, thus enabling, for example, paraplegics to walk again

GDPR is a gift to large corporations. Regulatory capture in return for a slap on the wrist. It also burdens startup competition and trains people to click "Allow Cookies" and "Accept the Terms of Service" as fast as possible.

Re:YouTube Kids a “vapid wasteland” say US lawmakers on Wednesday April 07, 2021 @03:55PM (#26730277)
PBS Kids was great the last time I saw it. Have they managed to stay neutral and not become politicized like so much of the media in the US?
Yes, but that was when we had an agreed upon definition. Now the definition is so broad it includes mere disagreement.

That's pushback, but engineers haven't reclaimed the culture and are mostly still silent and afraid.

Are corporations the new government? New form of legal or justice system?

> People were no longer aligned or empowered, and the incentive system was changed to basically destroy engineering culture.

Same with Google. The intentional misrepresentation and ousting of Damore was a turning point where engineering culture was run over by activist culture.

Same. It's extremely concerning. Where's the transparency? If the backend has been compromised and turned into a honeypot, how would we know?

Depends on when they joined Facebook. Early employees had no idea what it would become.

They are aggressive. For each person you follow, you get notifications "Sometimes" when they are on stage. In practice, it seems like "Almost Always".

The greatest privilege is being born in the West in the modern day, to 2 loving parents. Even if poor, you already won the birth lottery compared to 99% of every human that ever lived. Other notable advantages: Intelligence. Attractiveness. Charisma.
