Because we focus on abstract problem statements, coded appeals to authority (as if ex-Reddit CEO is that special; there are a few), rather than concrete engineering?

User demand to control what they see is there. It’s why TV was successful; don’t like what’s on History? Check out Animal Planet.

Tech CEOs need their genius validated and refuse to concede anyone else knows what’s best for themselves. What everyone else sees is a problem for a smurt CEO to micromanage to death, of course.

An modern smartphone CPU is more than sufficient to perform real time filtering of a controlled stream. Doesn’t even need a backend content filter, really. Being ex-CEO of Reddit may not be sufficient experience to solve what is, in the end, an engineering problem.

So all these US businesses do zero planning? The Fed is raising rates for lulz? We’ve unintentionally allowed consolidation of ownership? No one has any clue? You’re nitpicking semantics.

Twitter is text based. Video games have had text based profanity filters for online games for years.

Make it easy for users to define a regex list saved locally. On the backend train a model that filters images of gore and genitals. Aim users who opt in to that experience at that filtered stream.

This problem does not require a long winded thesis.

The brain is not involved in a whole lot of behaviors though. Cells organize themselves to an extent. Cuts heal without us focusing conscious thought on them.

The brain is a hard drive but the body is the whole computer.

Science is proving physical causation. Not just writing down what we want to be true.

There’s no way these people chat in a Signal chat group?

It’s funny how people on a technology forum discount other normal humans also using technology

I mean Musk’s Twitter texts just revealed they do exactly that.

Technically the US has more people in prison than China, and QOL metrics have all been dropping for decades.

Crack epidemic. Prescription drug epidemic. RvW being gutted.

Let’s sit and fear becoming a nation state that collapsed 30 years ago while ignoring we’re already on the path.

Ah the exceptional minds of the US. “If it smells like a violation of politically correct tradition as I know it, it’s communism!”

I sometimes wonder how much further along these initiatives might be if the economy was focused on them instead of My Pillow sales, cheap crap from Walmart, and simply handing personally wealthy elites stacks of cash to create pointless jobs and the money was put into net new technology, not Twitter 2.0 and VR 4.0

Mostly I was agreeing with the analogy of a run on a bank. Fed pulled out of funding the economy as it was. Less money for them to spend on coffees, Ubers, etc.; less to “trickle down” given the uncertainty of grandpa Powell’s intention to bring pain to households (except his own of course; he’s got enough to be insulated from his actions).

If you want to go on a specific tangent involving dead men’s philosophy, be my guest. I was merely attempting to illustrate how apt the bank run analogy is.

Yup.

Powell has been saying for months he wants people to save and pull cash out of the economy.

This is intentional because DC decided tech workers were undermining Washingtons of course most correct and immutable control over agency.

Why if all these people kept earning and could acquire more assets and live comfortable, politicians and uber rich would have no place in our society.

The fundamentals must be maintained. Fundamentals being we serve their goals, not the other way around.

My guess is something like this: https://youtu.be/15HTd4Um1m4

Nah the final version is chips with a massive data model and algorithmic magic embedded in silicon magic to bootstrap an environment that samples the data model to answer user questions.

A ways off, but some colleagues in the hardware world are working out the requirements on paper. Maybe right as I type this, not really tracking their calendar.

There will be some wiggle room for general programming, patches, hands on customization by the user.

Software is a decades long bubble to help us discover optimal machine state models we can etch into chips.

So long as we can avoid social collapse or species extinction between now than then anyway :)

Eh more like they shift managing the state to cloud providers.

Someone has to bootstrap a DC of machines before you can run that containerized business logic.

All the old barnacles are there it’s just hidden behind the wizards curtain.
