I work for an adtech company and im pretty much the only developer for the javascript library that runs on client sites and shows our ads. I dont use AI at all because it keeps generating crap

You don’t MAKE them stay home, you just don’t aggressively pursue full-employment policies. You tailor monetary policy to aim for a target 4-ish% inflation per year.

Unemployment doesn’t have to mean poverty - it’s better to have a sustainable level of unemployment with good social insurance than to pursue unsustainable full employment that leads to boom-bust cycles and ultimately makes everyone worse off

There’s a legitimate case that the democrats are weary of some of the economic policies they implemented in the late 1960s through the 1970s which led to runaway inflation. The backlash against this economy created the paleoconservative movement and got Ronald Reagan elected. Economically, 0% unemployment is actually a recipe for disaster:

Universal healthcare and welfare are good policies, but there were excesses to fiscal policy in the 1960s-70s, and the only way to Democrats made their way back to the whitehouse was with an entirely new generation/brand of democratic politics under Bill Clinton, which embraced free trade and deregulation (i.e, the “third way”). So far, progressivism has not won in the way that this new brand of liberalism has.

I think progressivism could probably win a couple cycles under the right conditions (such as coming off of the disaster of a 2nd Trump presidency) but I think the backlash would bring us what would effectively be a 3rd Trump presidency

Yeah and they work in the US defense industry too

He has pretty generic right wing opinions. In a debate with Destiny, he said something pretty close to “Rich black people commit more crimes than poor white people”.

Personally, I stopped giving a shit about other peoples’ racist opinions on the internet. Call it “outrage fatigue”.

Maybe Nokia is “dead” as a consumer brand but they’re a pretty big player in the enterprise world.

Under no circumstances would I use this lol

Yes this is an example of internet think

It does not surprise me that people who get lip filler share a venn diagram space with people who leave their kids in hot cars

Ah you see the mistake you’ve made is thinking that somehow posting a picture of someone supports them. This is because you spend too much time looking at screens

There are things you could have done besides act self righteous on the internet, and yet here you are

y’all need to stand up against racism and discrimination

Felt kind of out of nowhere. How does a web browser stand up to racism?

Wish there were better 3rd party mobile options. On pc I can install Linux on any laptop made in the last 15 years and it will work basically flawlessly. No such equivalent exists for smart phones

My elementary school bully got hit by a car and it ended his college basketball career

Communists are in a religious cult - you cannot reason with them

It won’t

I think also the fediverse tends to lend itself to brainrot formats of social media: mastodon (Twitter), lemmy (Reddit), pixelfed (Instagram/tiktok), matrix (Discord). The fediverse is just trying to mimic the worst examples of the internet while 4chan is perfectly fine being its 2004 self

We should just stop doing social media

Maybe just give rid of the 2ndary market. You can only buy stock directly from the company, and you’re entitled to a % of profit share as a result of that. When you’re done, you can sell the stock back to the company
