I mean… “Small government” Republicans were always demonstrably lying, as far back as any of them have been alive. Every one of them just wanted to shift money from things that support people to the pockets of their donors.

No, politicians make shit up to cover the fact what they really want are cops that obey them regardless of the law. Because they know if cops enforced the law equally, they’d be arrested for corruption.


“Liberal media”? They’re all owned by billionaires. It’s billionaire media.


Because there’s zero chance a private company will not cut corners and poison the surrounding area for a few million years.


This IS Christianity. Hypocrisy, corruption, and shallow virtue signaling have defined the religion since it became dominant in ancient Rome.


It’s more the evangelicals, not the puritans. Evangelizing / forcing their beliefs onto others with no regard to other’s wishes is a core evangelical belief.


Business tech Bros would absolutely love to force all open source closed, all long as it’s now their property.


This concept is very often misinterpreted by these tech CEOs because they’re terrified of becoming the next Yahoo or Kodak or cab company or AskJeeves or name any other company that was replaced by something with more “innovation” (aka venture capital). It’s all great they’ll lose wealth.
The underlying concepts are sound though. Think of a small business like a barber shop or restaurant. Even a very good owner/operator will eventually get old and retire and if they haven’t expanded to train their successor before they do, the business will close. Which is fine, the business served the purpose of making a living for that person. Compare with McDonalds, they expanded and grew so the business could continue past the natural lifetime of a single restaurant.
A different example of stagnation is Kodak. They famously had the chance to grow their business into digital cameras early on, their researchers and engineers were on the cutting edge of that technology. But the executives rejected expansion in favor of sticking with the higher profit margins (at the time) of film cameras. And now they’re basically irrelevant. Expanding on this example, even digital cameras are irrelevant, within 20 years of Kodak’s fall. The market around low- to mid-end stand-alone cameras had disappeared in favor of phones.
So the real lesson is not so much infinite growth like these tech CEOs believe in, the lesson is adaptability to a changing world and changing technology, which costs money in the form of research, development, and risk taking trying to set up production on products you’re not sure will sell, but might replace your current offerings.


Companies aren’t investing to achieve AGI as far as I’m aware, that’s not the end game so I this title is misinformation. Even if AGI was achieved it’d be a happy accident, not the goal.
The goal of all these investments is to convince businesses to replace their employees with AI to the maximum extent possible. They want that payroll money.
The other goal is to cut out all third party websites from advertising revenue. If people only get information through Meta or Google or whatever, they get to control what’s presented. If people just take their AI results at face value and don’t actually click through to other websites, they stay in the ecosystem these corporations control. They get to sell access to the public, even more so than they do now.


That’s because no human is actually reviewing anything on Reddit. It’s all keywords and AI, and they didn’t care how often it gets it wrong as long as they don’t get negative coverage in the news.


It’s in the article, they didn’t drop him during the coverage period they declined to renew.
It’s perfectly fair, if you can decline to review and insure with someone else when the 6 month term is up, so can they.


You don’t understand what a mass surveillance company selling personal details, including location, relationships, search history, and more, on everyone on earth, would sell to people doing a genocide?
Probably tacos.

They had to reject it because any religion with a creation myth specifically says how the god created people. To accept an alternative story would reject the notion of the book as truth.
The religious are not looking for answers, they already have all the answers by definition of their holy book or whatever. They’re looking for confirmation bias and reject anything that goes against that.


Nah, you’re just some Christofascist. The correct and moral thing to do is ban you, from society.


Or they’re shitty tech executives and are shit people, which has nothing to do with gender.


We’re you already familiar with Linux or follow a guide? Lot of products I’m not familiar with there.
Many conservative Israelis hate the victims of the Holocaust for being victims, they see them as weak. They feel shame, not empathy, and they’re happy to follow the Nazi methods so long as they are not the victims.
