If you hate billionaires but like steak, have you tried eating the rich?

That’s just what they want you to think.

Although it’s federated nature is kinda dying.

If you’re not on one of the major providers good luck getting people to see your email.

It just says can be activated. Not “automatically activates”.

Kill switches are overly dramatic silliness. Anything with a power button has a kill switch. It sounds impressive but it’s just theatre.

Yeah you’re right. Too many negatives and I flipped one of them when thinking about this.

Terrible headline.

Warren absolutely does buy that Trump would veto a ban. She just thinks that the justification (states rights) is complete bullshit.

Edit: I should not post at 5 in the morning. I got this completely backward.

If Musk doesn’t pay the loans the banks can take Twitter off him, but then they’re stuck with Twitter.

It’s always lost money, but now Musk has driven off the advertisers and many of the high prestige users; got stuck in a bunch of pointless lawsuits he’s going to lose; and run up a lot of debt by refusing to pay people.

And Musk knows this. The banks are fucked.

As someone working and publishing in the field this is more a cyber jerk about American exceptionalism than actually true.

Chinese universities and companies publish a shit tonne at pure machine learning conferences. They absolutely do a large amount of research into the fundamentals of machine learning as well as the applied stuff. They’re probably the closest to the US in terms of having large firms that are prepared to bank roll the training of the very large language models.

Alibaba in particular has been constantly doing cutting edge stuff in terms of multimodal language models that are worth paying attention to.

The actual truth is that China does both kinds of work. Broad foundational and applied work lead by independent research groups in companies and universities, and focused application driven stuff for direct application by the state.

Google still stands out in terms of the amount of research it does, but this is because Google is different to everyone -other US research institutes don’t compare to it either.

Can he drop out?

Kamala had to be nominated before the convention to make registration deadlines in Ohio.

Shouldn’t RFK be stuck on the ballet? - at least in Ohio?

No. The problem with your current bot isn’t that the website authors have a particular axe to grind, it’s that they’re just in a rush and a bit lazy.

This means that they tend to say news sites which acknowledge and correct their own mistakes have credibility problems, because it’s right there - the news sites themselves acknowledged issues. Even though these are the often most credible sites, because they fix errors and care about being right.

Similarly the whole left-right thing is just half-assed and completely useless for anyone that doesn’t live in the US. While anyone that does live in the US probably already has an opinion about these US news sources.

Because these are lazy errors, lots of people will make similar mistakes, and aggregating ratings will amplify this, and let you pretend to be objective without fixing anything.

The app phones home to access recipes.

Maybe it works without access to the server, but maybe it just refuses to do anything.

It’s all pure CEO bullshit though, and none of it is real.

It doesn’t cost money to send a Bluetooth signal from your phone to a sous vide. Maybe the WiFi server costs money but it’s their own fault for adding stupid functionality that phones home.

I’ve got one of these and I’m prepared to bet money that almost all of their server costs come down to every recipe in the app just being a link to a web page with lots of photos. https://recipes.anovaculinary.com/

The problem is that Tesla is a meme stock. It’s stupidly overpriced for a car company with such little production.

They could get rid of musk and try to turn it into a normal company with solid fundamentals but this would remove its meme status and crash the share price anyway.

There’s no way to fix Tesla without burning it’s stock price to the ground, so anyone involved is just going to try to ride the crazy train as long as possible.

Come on Elon, make the Cybertruck 2 and really fuck everything up.

Yeah anything responsible that reports and corrects mistakes made in past reporting gets a low score for factual accuracy, when these should be getting the highest scores.

It’s completely backwards.

Lots of people still split latex documents into one section per file, because subversion used file locks and we only knew how one person could edit a file at a time.

Nah, you’re forgetting how fucked the US is.

Citizen’s United mean it’s absolutely fine for billionaires to spend as much money as they like supporting geriatric fascists, providing they don’t ask the fascists how they’d like the money spent.

Providing Elon keeps going off half-cocked and making decisions on his own and isn’t following instructions from the trump campaign this is all perfectly legal.

And even if he is acting on orders, how could you ever prove it?

“It’s a cross that means Jesus will force you to have a baby.”

You don’t need to bribe a judge.

You need enough money to have a team of lawyers grind through the evidence and find what’s been hidden.

Compare this to having a public defender with limited resources. They basically have to trust the DA’s office.

What’s depressing about this is the DA’s office is so used to getting away with this shady shit, that they can’t do their job properly even when they know they’re under a higher level of scrutiny. Think of all the average Joes that have been fucked over by these guys.

Rich persons justice isn’t really about bribing your way out of things. It’s about having enough resources that you can force the system to behave, for you, in the way that it’s meant to.

This is instead of the usual process that just steamrolls over every poor bastard that ends up in court.

It’s always one of the first things to get cut when companies try to save money.
