I took it to mean that newer AI browsers were taking mind-share, if not market-share. I think you’re right that they’re minuscule in terms of actual user numbers, perhaps because there are many of them now.


Sounds like Geoffrey Hinton got in Bernie’s ear and did a good job convincing him of the fears. Hinton is a good guy, but he’s drunk too much of his own kool-aid. I think the bubble will pop at some point, but I’d prefer the fear-mongering over the hype, because the AI companies and governments do need more scrutiny.


Awesome! I will ship it to you tomorrow morning!


I can ship it to you if you can pay for shipping. I put it up on ebay since it makes the process easier: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/136814774452

Looks like they didn’t sponsor Omarchy, but they did promote it on their twitter a couple of times: https://x.com/FrameworkPuter/status/1960029405067313546


Omarchy uses Hyprland, so I guess they started by promoting Omarchy and maybe DHH asked them to sponsor Hyprland


Emily has also started posting videos on her channel after coming out as trans: https://www.youtube.com/@emily-young


The steam/itch situation is a bit complicated. I think the organization behind that action has bad motivations, so it’s not the best example for the long term. My guess is that itch will update their NSFW policy to allow for some NSFW content, but not content that depicts truly heinous material.
The reason I would support that type of activism, to an extent, is that it was effective against Musk when he started turning twitter into a hellscape: https://www.freepress.net/sites/default/files/2022-11/stop_toxic_twitter_coalition_open_letter_to_twitter_final.pdf


I have never once said in this conversation that EOs are law. You insist on bringing that up. What I am saying is that Trump’s EOs do have an actual effect, regardless of what their historical purpose was, and that’s what matters in the real world.


Is this not a real and direct effect of EOs? Doesn’t it matter that NASA was forced to change their behavior because of EOs? https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/trumps-dei-purge-is-hitting-nasa-hard/


I agree with this, mostly. The tech is real – The blockchain has solid math behind it. I don’t know if I agree with its value though. The viable usecases are significantly limited compared to the hype behind them. Bitcoin for example is still inherently inefficient compared to conventional payment systems. AI feels a lot like that – lots of hype with very little substance at its core.


You’re saying that EO’s are not policy?


I think it’s nice that many Americans don’t want what Trump wants. I think it’s unfortunate that in this case it doesn’t actually have an effect because the policy will be acted upon anyway.


Okay. My argument is that the semantics don’t matter because what matters is policy.


Based on your post history, I think we’re on the same side. I understand that this administration does not represent all of America. Unfortunately though, the semantics of it all don’t really matter. Trump got the majority vote, and that’s what matters. The effects of his policies matter. From the perspective of the rest of the world, this is what (the majority of) America has chosen. I don’t like it either.


I did not use the phrase “the American people”.


Very similar to crypto, the AI hype is sustained by some future promise that never comes true.
It’s when you make AI available to every employee at your company, instead of on an individual or team basis.
