Admittedly, we were not very good at this particular job.

That’s why they’ll fit their guards with death collars to prevent them from getting ideas.
- Comment on YSK Article Five of the United States Constitution 5 days ago:
I can’t think of a single thing that would garner such support. You could suggest an amendment that convicted child rapists couldn’t hold public office and there would be enough pushback that even that wouldn’t succeed.

It’s times like this I’m glad I speak Gen Alpha.

I will 100% be using “length disadvantaged timeline” in my next planning meeting
- Comment on Tesla's New Sales Data Is Absolutely Brutal 6 days ago:
This is at least in part because Tesla is shifting manufacturing over to humanoid robots because he has to make a million of them to get his trillion dollar payout. His stupid shareholders are essentially paying him to nuke the company (unless you believe the humanoid robot hype)

Of course! What a novel idea! A business focusing on a highly specialized audience requires careful consideration and planning.
Shall I switch to deep-planning mode so I can charge you 10X the tokens?

Great observation! You’re absolutely right! It does sound like it was written by an LLM.
- Comment on I created a public activity tracker for the matrix protocol network 1 week ago:
This is very cool. Have you uncovered any hidden gems with it yet (eg genuinely active nice communities, etc). My brief experience with matrix left me feeling that either a) either all of the activity on matrix was for matrix-related things, or b) it was just impossible to actually find active communities.
- Comment on Middle-class Americans are selling their plasma to make ends meet 2 weeks ago:
I think I read that donating your plasma was a good way to eliminate microplastics from your system. So while that doesn’t improve the overall dystopian-ism of this, it’s a bit of a silver lining? I guess?

Kermit on the outside, Animal in my brain.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
yes I’m in the US. No I don’t like that this is what has come to be. But, for a substantial portion of voters, what they see on their feed or on tv is what they think.
It’s no coincidence that billionaire Murdochs have manipulated the conversation on FOX News for decades, or that Jeff Bezos bought the Washington post, or that TikTok US is now managed by a right-wing organization.
What the billionaires own controls lot of what the non-billionaires think. Neutral media channels have either sold out, given up, or been strong-armed (a massive shout-out to those like 404Media who are trying to fill the void).

Thank you. Something stirred in the back of my mind when I read the title. Would have jumped down the rabbit hole if not for this comment 🙂

Popular, but not well-funded, or in control of the mass-media, or lording over our telecom infrastructure, or managing our content-viewing algorithms….
- Comment on it's really a bummer that ~creation~ has such a good synergy with content-consumption culture 2 weeks ago:
I think they mean that content addiction (which we generally see in a negative light and has negative consequences) is fed by content creation (which we usually see in a positive light and is something that gets encouraged).

- Comment on When both partners work from home: the hidden cost of always-on technology 4 weeks ago:
I’m sure there are some scenarios where this is bad, but like anything else the quality of the relationship is going to come down to the people in it. My wife and I had 2 years of simultaneously working from home and it was amazing.

Yeah I’m always unclear on headlines. I’d rather de-clickbait them but some mods are very particular about only showing unedited headlines

- Comment on China’s Four-Year Energy Spree Has Eclipsed Entire US Power Grid 4 weeks ago:
They still have a shitton of thermal (e.g. burning hydrocarbons of some sort) baseload, but it’s really shocking to see how quickly renewable capacity has been added. Anyone want to do the capacity factor calculations on this to see where they really are?

- Comment on Will 24/7 trading have a similar kind of negative effect as the introduction of 24/7 news did? 5 weeks ago:
I think the token is just a 1:1 representation of a particular share on the chain, and they use the chain because it’s an immutable ledger.
