  The author states that she’s been a tech writer for 10 years and that she thinks AI is going to ruin journalism because it gives too much power to AI providers.

  But, have you seen the state of journalism? AI killing it would just be an act of mercy at this point. How much SEO optimized, grammatically correct, appropriately filtered, but ultimately useless “content” do I really need to sift through to get even something as simple as a recipe?

  The author can bemoan AI until she’s blue in the face, but she’s willfully ignoring that the information that most people get today is already controlled by a handful of people and organizations.

  I find it harder to actually get more monero than it is to spend it.

  Cakewallet (a wallet app for Monero and other crypto) has a giftcard service that I’ve used before. It works well, but it was down for a little bit because of regulatory concerns.

  Monero is also pretty easy to convert to other Cryptos on non-kyc exchanges, so if a vendor accepts another crypto (USDT for example), it’s usually pretty easy to swap back and forth.
