ChatGPT told them otherwise.
Seriously, you’re arguing with people who have severe mental illness. One loon downthread genuinely thinks this will transform these students into “genuises”
I am so thankful that I'm not rich enough to be surrounded by people who agree with every single half baked thought that I put out
Why not, it’s not as if you’d face any real consequences for your own reckless stupidity.
They’re roughly proxies for each other. But I think land is a much more fundamental source of power. Makes sense that a lot of these types have started to invest in defense fortresses and opine about building new cities.
Yeah man, those stupid hick rednecks in Appalachia should have just learned to code.
It’s because the site is chalk full of millennials who jumped on the “I was an office assistant making $40k and I did a bootcamp and now make 200k” at the right place at just the right time.
They’re convinced they’ll time the next grift right. Who knows
I’m leaning paid shill tbh.
On this thread what people are calling “the market” is just 6 billionaire guys trying to hype their stuff so they can pass the hot potato to someone else right before the whole house of cards collapses.
Careful now, if they get their way, they’ll be both the market and the government.
I don't understand why Trump would do something like this which is gonna peel off yet another group of his supporters
The guy was like a walking auction item as soon as he started his second term. He’s nearly 80. He’s gonna amass a nice fortune for his family and dip.
Come on man, the guy was shilling his own shitcoin as sitting president.
doesn't sound like the one sleeping under the desk at the office to get the demo ready for TechCrunch Disrupt
For what? Their garbage SaaS that barely works and is just a thin veneer for advertisers to gorge on my data?
Some of those hippies are some of the most vile people I’ve ever met anyway.
Upskill? No, that’s not the point. You’ll be down leveled (potentially several levels) economically and held there.
Consider some poorly paid servant work. It will be sold to you as “noble work” or something along the lines to entice/slander you.
How are tariffs supposed to stop domestically produced AI from replacing workers?
Oh man, software is about to get so much shittier.
It all changes hands within a few decades though. Nobody lives forever.
Unfortunately they’re trying.
Really? Such as? Because if what you care about is the child, the child's future, even in absurdly extreme cases birth parents turn out to be better
Yeah, I’m sure people I know who were raped as children, abused and prostituded by drug addict parents and watched their siblings die from said drugs would have been immensely worse off away from pedophiles and drug addicts.
Although, at the very least, perhaps we can accept forced sterilization for such people. At the least keep it from expanding.
I spoke to a doctor at a bar a couple years back and he was telling me apparently out in North Dakota you can get a $400k salary as a family doctor.
Yes, but what special relations do you have with the purchasers?
Anyone who doesn’t realize at this point that online discourse is heavily engineered and manipulated is an unthinking rube.
We call that “the voting populace”
I’m really curious about the 08 recession. I definitely remember some of the fallout, but I was young and insulated from much of what it meant. My parents were also lucky enough to be employed with a mortgage.
The one thing killing me in the economy is housing. Rent is up like crazy, but even more so rental criteria is ridiculous and competition is insane.
And this is in a dilapidated rust belt city with maybe one industry propping up the entire economy. It’s a bit cheaper than when I was in Florida a few years back, but not by a ton.
If I could figure out housing, all other problems would solve themselves, but it’s the one problem I can’t solve. My credit score took a battering during a long period of unemployment, and now I’m about as much of a pariah as a three time felon with two evictions, and I don’t even have an eviction.
But how was in after the 2008 crisis. How hard was it to find rent them. If you had a job, and income were the rents still ridiculous? Or was it easy enough to find a place if you had money?
Isn’t this what we have RICO for?
she was shocked to learn that the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that reportedly engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex.”
There’s no way in hell this isn’t just tacitly incentivized the facilitation of trafficking activities through the site.
Cigarette makers were a dying cry of the old aristocracy. Silicon Valley is the rallying cry of the new aristocracy.
While I don’t quite believe they’ll achieve their Feudal dreams in the near-medium future. I do expect the US to transition to a much more explicitly an oligarchic republic as a large, with the pretense of “Government of the people, by the people, for the people” is largely pushed to the side.
Only solution seems to be to drop out of society to whatever degree possible.
The mere fact that commenters think banning advertising is a simple and realistic idea, without any constitutional road blocks
Of course not, clearly you just need a captured congress and an EO. Can’t be too hard to find a reason to turn Trump against Zuckerberg.
Interestingly in both cases, it seems to be an age divide at least somewhat.
Likewise going full jackboot during reconstruction after the US civil war wasn't politically possible.
I’m sure it was. You’ll see after whoever wins the next one.
Americans don't seem to understand how the moral character of their politicians and their political system is relentlessly degraded by the so called Israel lobby, or they don't care, or have resigned themselves to it.
I mean, it’s causing a small rift in the GOP. Time will tell if that escalates any though. I stand firm in my believe that nothing ever happens though.
I saw someone on this site yesterday directly and enthusiastically express support for mass dragnet government surveillance systems.
We need to bring back institutionalization so people like that have somewhere their antisocial tendencies can be contained.
This is exactly the type of elitism speak
Condescending towards who? Overpaid code monkeys? Maybe they should start a professional victimhood organization
that tells people how to vote because they know whats better for them.
A large portion of this country doesn’t even have the self stewardship to not eat themselves to obesity. Such people should have no place in any political process ideally.
