That seems highly optimistic.

Based on that 404 Media article I'm done with proton. They've lost their way. https://www.404media.co/manifestos-fear-and-loser-thinking-i...

Let me draw a line between this and the Ukrainian bombing of Russian Yandex data centers. This is a sign of structural vulnerability. If one power failure can take down more than 5 banks, what you are describing is a valuable target. It's ironic that the cloud services that promised to harden systems have delivered another layer of vulnerability.

Afd are just the Nazi party all over again. To quote the Wikipedia entry "In 2017, ten AfD Bundestag members were found to have participated in a closed Facebook group named "the Patriots" in which, among other things, antisemitic, racist, pro-Nazi and conspiratorial posts were widespread."

There's a reasonable argument to be made that many police departments fall into this category.

This is a blatant and direct violation of the Fourth Amendment.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

So far LLMs seem to be a dead end technology. The work product is so poor that it can't effectively replace workers as advertised. If it was priced to margin it'd be more expensive than humans as well. It's objectively a failure.

TDR: no.

Mass surveillance is a crime against humanity. They want us all to live in an open air prison. Garrett Langley should be regarded as a domestic terrorist and be in a real prison.

The future is bleak.

Terrifying. I never want want a car with this risk.

We stopped having a coherent foreign policy in 2017. It's only been 9 years. But I suppose tweens don't know any better; but I'd argue that they typically don't anyway.

100% their data was stolen. You can't enter any private data into AI and expect it to remain private.

impunity rarely improves the behavior of armed federal agents.

This is definitely marketing.

This should be illegal. Propaganda shouldn't be so pedestrian.

the word "propaganda" implies there is a strategy at play. He does not have a strategy. He has advanced dementia and cognitive decline.

I am genuinely worried about skill-rot. My peers code and design skills are degrading so quickly. AI is making each feature harder to debug than the last. That's a skill problem, and if our skills weren't rotting we'd be able to fix it adeptly. But the process seems to ruin our cognitive tools.

People complain about the kids not reading... I agree more with you. Boomer don't read either.

Expecting life satisfaction to spring forth from work is irrational new age nonsense. You need to pay the rent. You need food on the table. Get paid, and go home. You can work hard and work late if need be, but make time for fulfillment elsewhere. People are unsatisfied because they're looking for self realization in a cubicle and it's usually not going to happen.

It's hard to ignore.

Ai costs me money and it provides higher prices? That's lose/lose.

I do like that Hemmingway quote... https://medium.com/thought-thinkers/what-happens-gradually-t...

There's a big sell off looming.

This is a strange and probably illegal use of the military.

Sundar Pichai is violating anti-trust law for fun and profit.

Kalshi is illegal gambling and gambling is not news. You can find illegal gambling in all five boroughs of New York in person.

Well now we know that José Muñoz is evil and psychotic.

I can't tell if RFK is a jabbering insane person or a maniacal grifter.

I could have been more clear. Mass surveillance is not something for which we should be issuing and revoking permits or licenses. It should be simply illegal full stop.
